Because hindsight is a fucking bitch, let's look at today's lowlights of the TDD ITK IMO WTF.
Spooky. They truly were looking into the future.
A&C sucks and slurps their cum dribble, and that's all that matters.

Telegraph reporting that the fee is £30m, paid in five annual instalments of £6m - but only for as long as he stays at the club. Which if true sounds like a very good arrangement by Levy.
Just watch one of the manchester clubs try to buy neymar for that in the next yearsSo you believe we will see a 200 million pound signing in the next 5 years?
Even though I'm glad we got it over the line yesterday, I can't say I'm as excited as I should be over a £30m signing.It's rare to see us all so split on a player transfer as we are on Sissoko.
Of course they do now they are bitter and in the Championship, but after his first season they were creaming themselvesThat's funny because their fans seem to say otherwise
On his Euro performance, he's better than Merson.Toon fans are almost on the same level of delusion as Liverpool. If they think he is shit & Paul Merson thinks he is shit.....he must be good.

Merson was saying how good a deal he'd be for Everton and was hoping we wouldn't get him instead.Toon fans are almost on the same level of delusion as Liverpool. If they think he is shit & Paul Merson thinks he is shit.....he must be good.
If that was the case dan would have gone for a Saha or a Nelsen.Or not backing him enough to get the players he actually wanted, then panicking at the end when the options ran out
I'm not on his back. I'm not saying any of this to Sissoko, and honestly I doubt he'd really give a shit if I did.
Moussa Sissoko: Newcastle midfielder 'waiting' on Real Madrid approach
"I hope Real will come for me, I'm still waiting," Sissoko told World Football.
I'm not saying that new signings should see Spurs as the pinnacle of their career (because let's face it, if they're really good then we aren't), but I'm a little worried that he'll see Spurs as nothing more than a richer Newcastle and play the same day for Spurs that he did for them. Surely there's some truth to all the bitching from Newcastle fans online, it can't all just be sour grapes.
Did anyone see Lamela evolving into the essential type of player that he is for our system? Or that Dembele would ever find his correct position let alone becoming our "first name on the sheet" player.
What about seeing the immediate impact Dier would have being moved to DM? Or that Ali would break into the first team in his first season in spectacular fashion.
What about Rose and Walker being the two established starting England full backs. Or Wimmer making us question whether Vertonghan should be getting back into the team after his injury.
No... Me neither. Wash the sand out your fannies and have some faith in the manager and stop writing off a player before he's even kicked a ball for us, let alone had a season to settle in and show us what he can really do.
He's wasn't the first name on any of our lists but he's who we've got.
cretinousgoat is on a mad disliking spree
I've got no problem with winning the race for a player Everton thought they had, but the way Sissoko handled the u-turn really bothers me. He should have had the courtesy to tell Koeman that he was accepting our offer rather than ignore his phone calls. It doesn't matter if it was embarrassment, a lack of balls or plain rudeness, it's a bad sign.
For the record, on balance, I'm pleased we signed him. I agree with most that the fee is way over par, but I believe we're a stronger, more agile squad with him, and are better equipped to deal with the season ahead.
