Ramble Uncut: Josh Brownhill's poem

It's official: Alexander Isak has been labelled "a rat". But surely there needs to be a new animal for the Newcastle United fanbase? Pete, Luke and Jim Bernie Campbell are on the case...The lads discuss Spurs winning the first North London derby outside the UK (with thanks to Frontier Pets) and Man United's new hire, who fittingly seems to be an FBI agent from a screwball comedy. Meanwhile, Wayne Rooney begins hatching a plan to bring down High Performance's Tom Brady.

Man United have copied Newcastle’s homework and narrowed their striker options down to Ollie Watkins and Benjamin Šeško. That means Pete, Luke and Jim have to confront the terrifying prospect that they might actually have a decent season, as unlikely as that still sounds…We also get an update on the terrible situations at Sheffield Wednesday and Morecambe, while David Moyes becomes the unlikely head of the Everton tourist board and Joško Gvardiol’s pre-season training involves wielding a semi-automatic in the Croatian woods.
