It's a well known fact the geordie public will cheer attacking, flair, creativity, pace, goal scorers, They will not cheer a rabble who can't string three forward passes together. Look at the folk who become proper legends at this club and cult heroes - Milburn ( "the most exciting thing I've seen on a pitch" - Stokoe), MacDonald, Keegan, Beardsley, Shearer, Ginola, Gascoigne, Asprilla, Ferdinand, need I continue (I'm sure someone else could provide a better list of examples)? It works with other sports as well - look at the excitement Freddie Flintoff produces in the crowd and then the other players feed on that. You may say the crowd has to cheer the team to get them going and start playing good football, I agree that players (good players, flair players) feed on the atmosphere the crowd provides, but there has to be a ignition, a spark to get the crowd going first. The crowd doesn't get excited from the team playing backwards football, and geeing them up with a bit of local hero isn't going to cut it. The chairman must realise this, Sir John certainly did so you'd think his sackless son would have picked it up and the ringpiece that is Shepherd may have heard about the crowd bouncing along to flair, creative flowing football. For christs sake just buy someone with a bit of flair, Freddie and give the public something to shout about.

Bit like many of the players, and coaching staff, and board members - is it actually an official NUFC web site??

I hate to say this but I reckon we could well have missed our chance. The opportunity was at the end of last season, when instead of the apathetic shoe shuffling, noise should have been made, protests backed and people sacked. Everyone knew this would happen, it was painfully obvious, but some felt that Souness should be given a chance to get makes his changes. He shouldn't have had the chance and neither should Shepherd. There's less than a week left now, this situation should never have arisen. There isn't the time now, whether Souness is sacked or no we could get relegated. Changing the board, and it's just as bad. It's a total fucking disaster and very little will happen to change that.

From Souness Oh dear god,

PMSL "Well they are ahead of us in terms of training, fitness, ability, scoring goals, tactics...."

Would completely agree with that ^^ from my public house employment experience

I though you were going to suggest burning effigies of said villians outside the gates. But that's good too

So is Eastenders more or less depressing than the soap opera that is NUFC?? Me thinks not

Oh, I've had that for months. Try to dull it with whisky and tea

Me Father loves his ice cream and at the moment he raves about Doddingtons ice cream and Howey's Morrick (sp) Farm ice cream (not sure if thats what it's called but that is certainly where it's from). Both are on the farm jobs. Doddingtons is fairly available - a canny few outlets around Northumberland - whereas Morrick is sold on the farm near Warkworth. Lots of flavours, all good according to me Dad. Over here, they are mad about their ice-cream, and it's nearly all great

I would have to say the radish is a very much underused vegetable, ripe cherry tomotoes are also good, but they're technically a fruit.

Of course they're a cake. Do they pass the cake test?

Got a bit of a thing for that Smartie chocolate - the chocolate (white or milk varients) with Smarties minis embedded in.

I've been known to use "terrible accident in the ugly lumber mill" in the same vein. Caught myself using "back in your box" today, anyone know where the hell I got that from? 15900[/snapback] I used to say that all the time for about a year. I cannae mind what its off though. Will endeavour to remember

Nobby's friday night tandoori flavour, ummmm

Haha we use that as well, or used to when I was at home. Along with "Hippodonkeymoose"

We should be so Luque. Luque, Luque , Luque We should be so Luque in toon

Kiera Knightly - Honey Factor Nigella Lawson - Well, I'm not cooking Jeremy Clarkson - Opinionated Alan Davies - Very funny Jackie Milburn - I need not explain Albert Einstein - Irreverent intelligence Dylan Moran - Some one to drink with Siena Miller - Phwoar Iain Banks - Great current author, unashamed love of whisky Peter Cook- Guaranteed humour

Obviously not,

The above was a quote from supposedly from Mr. Shepperds office addressing the lack of players

11 and a half shopping days left. It's just like doing your christmas shopping. Nobody bothers until Christmas eve and then tries to pick up bargains. Only fools and women have their shopping done more than a week early. Proper folk rush round and do it in the last couple of hours. Tis not a worry.

We got so many bad performances out of our systems last season this term should be an absolute cake walk

What's all that about then? How to be a worthy member of society or something? 14570[/snapback] Fuck knows, my predicted grade was an A. Its basically a cross between politics and sociology, its fucking shit. I did areet on my January exam, getting a C, and it was piss easy. So i just fucked about on the other 2 exams that brought me down to a U. I didn't pick it, I had to. It's like RE at school. SHITE 14584[/snapback] We had to do General Studies, sounds like a similar bag of wank. I didnae bother turning up for the exam

No trouble, just don't go around in a large coat with a rucksack
