Staveley commenting on cabbage heed

Did you get a canny bag of: For your troubles?

That's a shit hero name. You'll never get a comic named after you at this rate.

Actual place in Coleraine, mate of mine grew up there. We called him Winnet once we found out.

Less "get fucked", more "stick it up your Western Bypass"

We do love to develop theories that become lore through repetition. Plus it's next to impossible to get a read on Howe, he prides himself on giving nothing away including making any comment on Burn being made to suffer through team after team targeting him with great success. The only time he will make a comment is to correct an incorrect assertion regarding his tactics (e.g. when he was accused of switching our wingers constantly). If the media were tuned in enough they'd start asking questions that would evoke a response. "Eddie, your decision to play Bruno in a deeper laying tree core twister role is paying dividends, but do you see him moving into a number 8 role with the return to fitness of other midfield players?"

You can tell sammynb is a proper Uncle Buck type. Black sheep of the family fo sho.

He hasn’t been on in six months. Was it something we said?

Id give it to him purely because of the comedy potential of his first name.

There's an overhyped boxing event on this evening and you haven't even given us a load of unnecessary posts about it, what's the craic?

Police have pulled over a suspicious empty horsebox on the A1 with Irish number plates. The driver claimed he was taking the non-runners to Catterick.

We said "kets" in Gosforth in the 80s/90s so I'm not having that as any kind of marker of working-class authenticity tbf

Scullery for kitchen as well

Think nowadays I'd prefer the crisps....

No, but I did get a drunken nosh from his lass a few weeks later after a drink with workmates. (Unfortunately I was out of it otherwise I would've stopped her if I was remotely sensible). I felt terrible at the time but I couldn't stand the kid at times as he could be a right prick when he wanted to be, the favour was for another mate who was seeing the kids sister who was stunning so he obviously wanted to keep her happy.

'Kin hell, just when HMHM's luck turns for the better, they blow up his hoose.

A massive sinkhole has just appeared on the A1 at Gosforth. Police are looking in to it.

Fucking hell, she was the main act at last weekend's Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, where there was huge memorials for a gay couple that had been murdered by one of their ex-lovers, who was, a copper. She might need to talk to her booking agent.

Apparently the Tories always have a much lower vote share with this lot, but still. Reform only 5 points behind. Single figures by November.

My Grandad spoke Pitmatic, with the rolled R, used the full old fashioned vocabulary- Thee, Thou and Thow, He’d “gern ti the netty” , pit ponies were cuddies, his flat cap was a dutt, had his favourite gansey , sweets were kets, he’d collect sheep and rabbit “dottles” to put on his roses I’ve mentioned before that my old man had a tape of him talking to me and my brother when we were 5 and 3, we both clearly understood him and were prattling away in response to him quite happily on the tape, but listening to it years later he was almost unintelligible. I was gutted when my old man’s unhinged* wife “lost” the tape, as it was not only a lovely thing to have personally, but from a social history view it was a record of a dialect that’s now virtually disappeared. *the tales of her psycho behaviour are a whole other story

He's waiting until the wife pops to Tesco.

“ I say, Jeeves- where is Mama, it’s been nearly 5 minutes and I miss her ever so…” ” I’m afraid, Master Meenzer, that Ma’am is currently engaged in the netty, laying a cuddie’s leg.” ” Oh bother!!”

scanning ffs another completely unnecessary new word for something that has always existed in the game. file under low blocks, double pivots, turnovers and transitions.

Yes, Stevie was "thrilled" to hear it.

Once helped a mate move from Melbourne Court in town to a place near Chilly Road. He’s sound but to say he needs a rocket up his jacksie at times is an understatement. I knew it was going to be a long day when I turned up and most of his stuff hadn’t even packed his (now ex) lass, who was also moving was a right miserable fucker too. I don’t even think she spoke the whole time, let alone said thanks

Data could be misleading without a blink counter.

I once had to carry furniture up those flats as a favour to a kid I worked with around 1992.

You think they'd just wait till around October/November so the noise just blends in seamlessly?

I don't wear the apron for them.

Are you me?

As opposed to the postman and the Ocado driver like you do now.

We had one of each so it became easier to agree on that being it. I was then instructed to get the snip which I had no issue with whatsoever, as I was fully done with having more kids . But even that doesn't stop the "I wish we'd had another one" coming up every once in a while, but it's fairly easily shot down with a bit of gentle gaslighting "well you shouldn't have made me get the snip then should you?"

The resemblance is uncanny.

Only if the ball ricocheted toward Bruno everytime Sissoko tried to control it. Yes he was imposing but the fucker had the touch of Trump in a changing room.

They'd be heavily armed, Shirley.

What he said

Yeah I had to check the date on it too.

Nice summary here.

Miggy is comfortable with neither foot that’s basically the same, isn’t it?

Me granny (from Burradon) used to say “chebble” for table a lot of that generation from the village had more of a Northumberland than Geordie accent. Although not to the extent of rolling their Rs. Which has sadly all but died out even in places like Eshinton

I love the fact he had to change his name from Lord Buckethead because of a copyright issue
