Out of interest, did you ever give Sunderland any consideration? They've got some great lights on at Seaburn seaside and a smashing national glass centre if you're up for the weekend and got a bit of time on your hands.

How to win friends and influence people! There was a barber in Wallsend I sometimes went to. Canny enough lad, but would stop and use both his hands gesturing when he got carried away talking to you, instead of just cutting and talking, (Or better still, cutting and not talking). Am now in the stage of doing a "trampy home job" myself and prefer it to traipsing to a barbers which I always hated having to do. (I'm going the way of Zidane now, anyway.)

Went to Orlando two years ago, not my cup of tea, people were alright, but the fact you need to drive everywhere did my head in and the fucking queues at Disney and Universal were unreal, standing around for rides so your kids don't get too upset, and being boiled alive in the unsheltered line. At Universal I had enough and used the girls bad behaviour as an excuse not to queue up for an hour a ride. You've got to be careful crossing the road on International Drive as well, if you're at a crossroad and the green man comes on, don't expect someone turning from the other junction to be stopping! We stayed at Quality Inn on the advice of the in-laws who go all the time and came with us on holiday this one time. Shit hotel, not enough room for a fortnight for a family of four but that I suppose was the fault of the Mother in law, not Orlando! Met an American Mag I knew who lives in Orlando and had a 'night off' from the familia. We met in Hooters before going to a few bars, the Hooters girls were nice to look at but seemed a bit bored by it all which you couldn't blame them, to be honest, also got tapped up by a travelling pepper saleswoman who said I was 'going home with me' the way you hear them on the Jerry Springer type shows! (She was a poor mans sigourney Weaver and just got even more pissed when I told her my wife and bairns wouldn't really like that, still, she did get me a pint and some chicken wings to snack on, so it wasn't all bad!). I tried to fob her off on the Yank Mag I was with but I must have been a novelty for her, plus she couldn't understand a word I said.

Start off in the Stack, in Walker, go up to The Birds Nest and keep going along Walker Road till you hit the town, it's not that far of a walk and will start your night off nicely. Have a good night.

I once watched one of these football factories things Dyer does, he was in Italy and he went to a Roma-Lazio game, His patter and everything about the show was genuinely very funny, trouble is, I don't think that's the intention of the show. I get the impression that most of these books/documentaries are written by cockney gobshites and we all know what they're like for telling the truth. I just can't take them seriously and aren't that interested anyway.

Well yeah, but part of the appeal is that she's this sort of Geordie princess. So lets get this straight, a lad could be watching her on the telly minding his own business with not a care in the world. The next second, she starts to talk and says, 'eee, I'm from Newcastle' in her Geordie accent and the lad goes from mild mannered Joshua from Sidcup to red blooded josh with a knob like a babies arm holding an apple? ........Or maybe the attraction is just that she's good looking and fit as fuck?

As Monkey once said, (In a japanese accent, am I allowed to say that?) "Slippery as an eel!"

Of course it doesn't matter. Absolutely, if they were white kids then they'd just have been cheeky cunts, but as they were 'Pakis' then they clearly didn't know their place. Ok, I can't speak for Stevie as I don't know him from Adam, but wasn't he merely describing an event that happened at the Baseball Ground? He described the kids involved as Asians. They were as well! Had we been playing a UEFA cup game Marseilles and the same thing happened might he not have described French kids getting chased? Was he (or myself) being racist in mentioning that they happened to be Asian? There's a school of thought that everybody is racist to certain degrees, maybe me and Stevie are on the lower 'subconcious' level. Or maybe we're not racist at all. Neither Stevie or myself mentioned the offensive word 'Pakis', but maybe we meant to, eh? As soon as I looked at the posts after he and I wrote them, I thought, I bet someone mentions the Asian part of it. I suppose its good that people are looking out for racism as it hopefully should be going the distance and doesn't and shouldn't belong in 2009, but it wasn't always so. I think the two of you have overeacted a bit and ewerk has definitely tried to put words where they weren't. By the way, I'm not condoning anyone getting chased, Asian or not. At the time it was funny, at the time nobody got hurt, at the time I was young and drunk, I also saw things that happened which seemed funny through a young lads eyes, such as a Morris Minor getting shaken about and turned on its side at Stanley Park, or someone getting a lass to make up twenty hotdogs/burgers at Elm Park then telling her he didn't want them he merely asked "if she had twenty?" and then pissing himself laughing. Had that happened now I'd have thought they out of order as I've grown up. (But they were funny at the time). I just think the pair of you have got the wrong end of the stick, for what its worth.

Snob!

My proudest day as a toon fan that. I was only 14, I remember after the game too little things you remember from games, there was a park beside the away end, and these Asian were playing football over this fence, shouting 4-1, all you seen was 5 toon fans hurdle the fence, the asians ran like fuck, leaving their ball and their coats. 30 seconds later 50 yards down the road all you seen were coats and a football flying about in the throng of toon fans. Was good when we beat them 1-2 in the August as well, but they stuck us in that shitey paddock. Franz Carr's best game for the toon that. Well found, Stevie. Thats the first time I've saw those goals apart from being there. Those Asians must have liked a chase, the same thing happened in '88 and I'm pretty sure I saw some in the 2-1 win the year after.

Keegan is a mercenary! My mind has now been changed after reading this insightful article here by Stanley Collymore. He always seems to get it right about NUFC, there's no way he's bitter or anything. Some canny replies I liked too.

I was watching it like, seemed to start from the Bristol City fans on the (front) terrace bit who were over the Toon fans side, and when we started to leave on the stairway nearest to the away fans it just started to kick off. When I went down I walked past the away fans aswell and the police on the 2 horses were getting pretty aggresive for no real reason and got a hold of a couple of people by the neck and slinged them away, (aswell as moving people back). Their fans (and players) were a tad pathetic, seemed like they won a cup final not a point @ SJP... for such a "small club" that we are apparently... PS. They were a canny good set of fans tbh though. I had a look at one of their websites and you'd think they were playing at the San Siro for the first time ever.

It was in a TV advert.

I was in my seat to the end and I never saw anything. (Also couldn't believe the amount of people going downstairs ten minutes before half time, I mean seriously, WHATS THE FUCKING POINT OF GOING?!!!) One or two might have been bursting for a piss, but not that many, and this was in level 7, too.

Spent loads of weekends there at my Grannies house in the same estate (the three story houses) they show on the advert when I was a kid. My Aunt still lives there, she's a retired librarian, last I knew she'd take her dog for a walk in Heaton Park wishing other locals a good morning when she passed them (and being greeted back) and I always found it a nice place. Wether she's 'smacking herself up' on the sly is another matter! I must have words the next time I bump into her. I think it's more of a case that the paper is sensationalising Cheryls rise from 'humble' beginnings and they haven't the first fucking clue about Newcastle upon Tyne in general never mind one of it's districts. I wonder how they would describe London to a foreigner?

KK: Says it all, really.

I was in level 7 and the answer is no. What happened?

Completely agree.

Hit the bar, hit the crossbar, keeper pulled off two great saves, ref denied us a blatant penalty, their winger with dreadlocks must have handled the ball at least five times and we didn't once get a free kick, it was a bit unbelievable. We weren't great today, far from it, but we were a lot better than wednesday, things just didn't go our way. At least the sight see-ers were happy, can't remember as many QPR/Bristol City fans making the trek in the old days.

I'd rather watch a bunch of 'Jeremys, Ruperts and Crispens' on university challenge than watch that soccer AM shit. (Their humour is so poor and 'southern' I've been embarrased for them when I've been unlucky enough to have watched it. How they make a living is a fucking mystery to me. Their 'jokes' would make an onion cry.)

Derby County 4-1 Newcastle United 1992. I wouldn't put this down as a 'favourite' game, but I've never felt as proud to be a Geordie than I did at the Baseball ground that day. Thousands of Mags gave unstinting support after three of our players were sent off as well as Terry Mac getting sent to the stands by a referee called Coddington who wanted to make a name for himself. Facing div 3 squarely in the face the support was as defiant as I can remember and it got through to the likes of David Kelly about the injustice of it all. At 2-0 down and two men down Derby couldn't get the ball off us the backing was intense and we pulled a goal back to mental celebrations, we then went a further player down and the numbers told and the score ended 4-1. Some seats were threw, songs were sung the likes of Kelly threw their shirts into the support after the game, Sutton their keeper came over to our fans after the game and stood applauding. I've never felt as one with our players and my fellow Mags as I did that day. By a quirk of fate, we had to go back down to the Baseball almost straight away in our promotion year and beat a decent side 2-1 with Clarkie getting one of them in a great game which was the start of the belief that we were a good side. Happy days. If Hova is reading, KK played a small part of these happy days.

How about, 'You pack of lying bastards!'

Me too.

Now that it's in the open, will Ashley distance himself from Llambias? It had been reported that he was going to replace him, or is it more likely that Llambias is just the monkey to Ashleys organ grinder. I'd say the latter.

Are they having a laugh?! Which one's Brian McNally? Cunt Are they having a laugh?! Which one's Brian McNally? Cunt make that fat cunt Make that a fat mackem cunt. He's a 'celtic' fan from Seaham/Seaburn, (can't remember which one). Used to cover SAFC. Lets see how the rest of the media react, if there's nothing more than sensationalism regarding KK's award or £25M 'claim' then they are truly the biggest set of anti-NUFC wankers around, (Outside of FCB).
