Could he be any more desperate to get a quote in the paper? I'm really proud of where I come from, but sometimes, just sometimes....... Please let nobody outside of the North East read that article. Anybody know if Wraith has an agent?

Gave us all a laugh when he chastised his own clubs fans and wished they were as good as Newcastle's. Cheers for that. RIP.

Fergie calls Rooney into his office, "have you heard of Pele, son?", he asks. "Yes boss.", replies Shrek. Fergie then gives him a Pele DVD and tells him to watch it for tips. Next he calls in Phil Jones. "Have you heard of Beckenbauer, son?". "Yes Boss.", replies the young defender. Fergie then gives him a Beckenbauer DVD and tells him to sit and watch at home and see if he can learn anything from Der Kaiser. Next he shouts out for Patrice Evra. "Pat, son, c'mere! Have you heard'a Rumminegge?" Evra replies, "Boss! I've never heard a thing, honest!"

Well, well, well. I will be informed next week whether I'm to be made redundant or not as I've only been provisionally selected through a matrix on my abilities, skill, attitude, experience time keeping etc. The Manager who scored it has blatantly gave me low scores as he and I don't exactly see eye to eye, (he's a young bluffer who got the job through family ties, tries to cut corners, tries to get you overlook serious contamination issues, falsify documentation in your own name just to to keep the job running as he's that scared of the Managing Director who is a poisonous man in his own right, the same kid has been told by myself, (and others) to go forth and multiply on many occasions but I'm probably his main hate as I was running my own team and couldn't give him any respect and would refuse to do his wishes. Also put an incident report against him where I could've been killed by the idiot touching things he shouldn't have been touching about a month ago. I'm going to appeal as there's no way, shape or form the person described in the matix bares any resemblance to myself. Out of four compulsary redundancies everyone is gobsmacked/totally bemused/think its laughable my name is on it. The appeal will be looked at by a seperate manager who doesn't know anything of me/my job and they'll back up the idiot. Good. I'll be taking them to a tribunal with more than enough evidence backing myself up. He has Jack Shit on me. With a bit of luck I get this new job I've an interview for on the friday with a different company and an extra few quid out of my present company either out of court or in it. Suits me either way. The Bulls knacker has made one big mistake going after me. Also been offered a new role with the company all of a sudden ableit with a pay cut which I've refused after I've told them my intentions, (I've already dropped several thousand pounds in wages this year as it is, and accepting their job would be an admittance on my part that I agree with the joke appraisal.) It's all hassle I'd rather not have but as I've stated, I don't believe in injustice especially in the workplace. They've picked the wrong person this time, I'm afraid. (Just read Stevie's MO on taxi drivers moaning about not getting certain jobs. Hope this post isn't in the same catagory!)

If I get this job then its a result, but my current lot don't know about it and are quite happy for me to lose my job to accomodate someone else from the affected dept who isn't up to the job, knows nothing about the process involved but who'd cost the company more in redundancy pay outs than I would. TOUGH! Any company who makes redundancies does so to save money, it's not like the redundancy package is huge. I've been jotting down a few little notes today in the house. I want to make them squirm and ultimately get a little more money out of the pittance I'll receive. I've already been robbed blind by them, Tom.

Sad to hear that Barney, wish I had the same respect for some of the many managers where I'm at now. I'm in a pumped up mood. I've a practical test for another job and I'd better make sure I do well in it as I got a phone call this morning at home telling me I'm being made redundant at my current job and have to go in early tonight. I'm 100% being shafted in so many ways and there's no criteria they could possibly apply where I should be selected, my job isn't even redundant!!! I'm going to do them for unfair dismissal, don't want the job now as everyone is demoralised but I've no real time in and I'm a firm believer in injustice being fought. The Personnel Manager is in for an uncomfortable time in about an hour.

11 stone 1, 5 foot 9, fittest I've been since I was 17. Ate like a pig on fri night and again on sat night, ran 6.5 miles today to pay for it. Simples.

Nee offence, CT, but I've heard that gripe is actually the size of King Kong's fist, it just appears tiny on your chest, mate.

What the fuck happened there?

'Big 6' now Man City and Spurs are there. If we overtook Liverpool (football club) then it'll be a 'big 7'.

Our record against these up here is wank. I can only think of Keegan's debut off the top of my head where we beat them! But......we've beaten other bogey sides this year in fulham, blackburn and man U, sooooo......no idea how this'll go . 1-1 at a guess. Hope Ben Arfa runs riot and we murder them, though.

He was a cracking writer/poster and its a shame he never posted on here much.

Don't know if any of you will recall Percy Street as he seldom posted here, but I knew him from a different forum for a good few years and met the bloke a few times after games by chance. Percy went by the name Barry in real life and wrote for 'The Mag' under his real name before changing to 'Percy Street' after I sussed who he was one time purely by the style of his (great) writing style and patter. The bloke was an old Leazes ender as a young'un and had a great sense of humour and didn't take life so serious which is a good idea when you've supported the Toon as long as he did. He was only 50. http://www.themag.co...s/percy-street/ RIP, Percy/Barry

It's been mentioned but Pardew needs to ring the cunt up and 'get him telt'. Someone at the club also needs to get a NUFC 'friendly' journalist to to do a job on Redknapp and highlight the bastard blatantly tapping him up or merely unsettling a rival clubs striker. It fucking stinks and needs addressed. OJ Simpson didn't get away with as much murder as this hypocritical twat.

Good post and I totally agree. Fantastic getting that last second winner today, karma for their last gasp winner down there in the placca cup.

I fancied our chances far more at Old Trafford than I did last night, just didn't see that coming, just gutted I was at work all night. Seen the goals and thats it. Fantastic result and by all accounts performance too. Been too long since we beat these arseholes so everyone just enjoy it!

SSN flogging the sportsdirect arena name as the odious twat Craig reports from the pitchside, splitarse in studio joins in. Never heard it called the bastardised name so much in a short spell.

Do you think he'd allow it? It might be good publicity for a company to do that but might not look good for him. Egg on his face, and all that?

Sometimes the cards just don't fall your way. Rooney gets dropped against Blackburn, they have a few players out of position, nice easy game for Fergie to rest some players, result, 2-3. Man City beat Liverpool (football club) and back comes young Shrek full of hell ready to be a pain in the arse and pester the ref. Fergie ALWAYS treats a game at SJP with respect and drills their players that its a hostile place etc as he knows when our tails are up we can give them a game, so for that reason you never seem to get an 'off game' from them up here. I'm at work tonight, expecting the worst, hoping for the best. P.s. On Obertan. Just wonder whether Carr would have recommended this lad if he spotted him playing in France? Buy from Man U? Buyer beware! A Pardew signing and so far, a waste of the little funds we have at our disposal from Mr Sports Direct.

You called?

I quite like Arsenal myself. Who said I hated them? Was just starting with A for Arsenal.

I once spoke to an Arsenal fan down there, his patter was, 'yeah, mate, Noocarsill, once went there back in the day, 6 fahsand gooners, good day out', 'when was this?' I asked, he replied it was in the eighties when the terraces was there. I told him he was talking out of his arse as they would only ever bring about 1500 up, tops, and even did so when going for the title, his reply, 'Nah, mate, there was fahsands of us'. When I asked him for specific games/dates he backpeddled quicker than a clown on a uni-cycle! At the same time we were taking 5-7,000 away to places like Barnsley, Rotherham, leeds etc on a regular basis. They're shit liars, like.

Running out to .......
