Nailed on to score now, like.

Spot on. Far better him ranting and twisting on when we've got a point down there than the big smile, pat on the head, here's bit of toffee for the Geordies and thanks for three points lads.

Pathetic http://www.readytogo...ad.php?t=648062 There was a thread about our late midfielder which I had a look at, lots of 'shocked' comments, very respectful etc, then you get this thread the next day. I may be missing something here, but every supporter of the Country/Clubs he played for have shown respect and quiet dignity around the news of his death and most haven't gone over the top at all. Poor, poor taste at having a pop at NUFC supporters for remembering a recent player who was a gent and rather good at his job. Credit to any of them who've pulled the ones who couldn't resist an anti-NUFC dig.

I'll be gutted if he goes. As long as he's manager we'll always have a great chance against them in as in my opinion he's as NUFC obsessed as most of their fans seem to be. I still can't believe the easy ride he got from the media over 'the record' he was going to play when they were going to beat us at the Estadio Del Shite to make up for their 5-1 humiliation. He and some of their players are really their own worst enemies by keep bringing NUFC up. If I was Bruce I'd try my best to sweep it under the carpet and move on. He's one, (not all) of the reasons why we currently own SAFC.

No audio which seems appropriate.

Just found out. I'm gutted. He was just such a good player but unassuming with it. I've always had a soft spot for the bloke and he even shared my birthday as well. One of Bobby's 'blue chip' players when were a champs league side. Really saddened to hear this, puts the football completely in perspective. There's been some jakies and wasters at our club who couldn't hold a candle to this bloke. RIP Gary

Thanks for the update Deaders. Let us know what you end up doing. We're all on tenterhooks waiting to find out. My moneys on the PS3. Back to yesterday, how hilarious hearing Fergie describe the pen as 'the worst decision he's ever seen', truly made me laugh, that one. Say what you like about the bloke, but that was the funniest punchline I've heard this weekend.

Then again, if it's Simpson, then he's a Man U fan so I half forgive him, even though he's been here long enough to know better.

Bothers me.

Sums them up perfectly, they have had decade after decade of getting everything from refs and as soon as one goes against them they cry like the spoilt bastards they are. Also one of the saddest things in football is the way their fans still to this day continually do chants about Shearer when we play them. Such is the arrogance of them that the idea a player turned the mighty manu down to play elsewhere means it eats away at them even now. He came here and won fuck all whilst they won countless trophies and yet the sad fuckers still whinge about it because he dared to say no to the theatre of dreams and that bunch of self obsessed wankers. I have to say I agree with Stevie on most things but I just don't get why he doesn't hate those cunts as much as I do. I remember one of the cunts telling me he saw me 'crying on the telly' just before the Charity Shield game at Wembley. 'What a strange kid', I thought as I'd not given him the slightest provocation whatsoever. As I walked off shaking my head seeing him nurse his jaw I could only wonder at their absolute, sheer lack of goodwill as supporters and their temerity to test the patience of anyone in their path.

We got lucky with the pen, no doubt about about it. Makes up for a few in the past. But spare me any hard luck stories. Ben Arfa gets a yellow card for vehemently pointing at his head seconds after Collicini gets hoofed on the floor by Rooney with no card? Really? Sorry but if that is no yellow then Arfa's isn't. He could'nt wait to send Jonas off and if our goal was lucky, (which it was), then so was Man U's. By the way, not for the first time, when two sides called 'United' take to the field, how utterly fucking disrespectful for the supposed 'neutral' commentators to refer to only one team as 'United'. Man U fans will roll the eyes but it boils my piss. Always has, always will. Played as well as we did at Man City's new ground. A good point.

Wonder how a French lass would pronounce it? (You jammy bastard!)

They always lead with a Sunderland story. On the sports show, anyway. For them to refer to St. James' Park as that abortion of a name, sportsdirect, well, they've no balls, really. Very, very poor effort.

Lets hope Shola's on for that pen, then!

Heard BBC Radio Newcastle refer to our stadium as, (roll drums)............'Sports Direct arena' in a news story about Nile Ranger. Cowards or Mackems in that place. The presenter in their phone in is a Mackem. You'd never tell, like.

Walked past a new restaurant with the little Lady the other day, She said, "Mmmmm, that new restaurant smells lush.", I thought to myself, 'go on, treat her', so we walked past it again.

Sorry. Words failed me too.

Sexy accents? I've heard quite a few well spoken N Irish girls accents and they sound very sexy, would go along with a well spoken Scots lass too. A Geordie lass could be very sexy or complete turn off, depending on the charva-ness of her. Lets be honest, a lot is in the looks, though. I do remember six lads travelling to Spain via coach/Ferry many moons ago, on the ferry they spotted a young blonde lass behind a desk, fit as fuck and as we were ogling her she made an announcement on the tannoy of the ship in English in a southern accent before switching to French. Jesus, as an 18 year old I nearly came on the spot!! (She was trying to keep her laughter in as well) Hearing any French lass speak takes some beating, though.

I didn't say either sets of fans are anything of the sort. Each club up and down the country have their minority of inbred fans, City included. I just think some of the stuff we read on forums nowadays is just bitter and unfounded, like the comment i quoted before. Its not our fault we were bought over, and if the same was to happen to Newcastle, and a multi billionaire came in and bought your club you wouldn't care a jot for anyone else. What are we as fans meant to do? Sit a round and moan that we have been bought over, or make the most of it while it last's? Im 33, and was born a bit late for City's "glory years". I've waited a long time to see us lift a trophy, but its happened and i want more of it. Does that make me or any other City fan "a cunt"? No, we have a taste for it and want it again and again. I remember when King Kev had Newcastle at the top of the league and you guys thought you'd win it, we hoped you'd win it. Did we bad mouth you or your set of fans cos you might win the league? Nope, and lets be honest, KK spent a fair few bucks in his time at Newcastle. You see you have to spend money to compete, doesn't mean City fans have changed, i suggest it shows that other fans change due to wanting the same for their club, i wont blame them for the latter of that. The days of internet message boards and fans measuring each others cocks, eh? Never mind, Rickster, for what it's worth I've always thought Man City had a decent crowd, and by decent I mean numbers and vocally. One thing I will say though, you also have a pretty high percentage of big mouthed cunts who trot out the line 'over 30 thousand in the 3rd division while you only used to get 8,000 etc, etc'. (Even though it was 28K). Manc-Mag has it nailed on when he says small man syndrome. Clubs like us, Man City, Everton, Villa and Spurs arguing about 'biggest' is like the proverbial two bald men arguing over a comb. For me though, a big proportion of your support gave it the billy big balls every time you played us and love to tell all and sundry how your support was superb 'when you were shit' and then you bring 1991 up and the shit support of the Geordies. Unfortunately, Rickster, we've never had the pleasure of the 3rd division but I'd put good money on the fact we'd be the best supported club that division has ever had if we did get in it, for the novelty/we'll show 'em factor alone. If any of your lot who constantly say our support was shit pre-Keegan come on here, maybe they'd like to present all the other 'big' clubs attendances from the same seasons when our shit support often bettered them, and often bettered them from a lower league. To be honest, Stevie/Mcfaul has presented the case and I could go into more detail but I'll just leave it at that. For every decent lad I've met who were City fans I've unfortunately heard at least another who was a complete fucking balloon and who made up attendance stats because, lets be honest, when your team is shit and your biggest claim to fame is your support and how good it is then NUFC being around getting better throughout our own turbulant times is one huge, fuck-off fly in your ointment. Just to clarify, We've averaged under twenty thousand three times since the days of horse drawn carts. Our smallest of these was in 1991 and was 16,000. I believe Man City once boasted a 13,000 average. Who'd have thought it? On the other hand, we also were relegated with the biggest ever average gate of any club in this country so we can't be that bad, either.

Merson is a complete Bull's Knacker, mate. Always was, always will be. There's nothing to add.

I love Annie's/Eurythmics stuff.

Lass at Opera: "Look, Rob, you're a really nice guy, I just don't think we connect together on a few levels, but hey, it was a nice night and thanks for buying me the ticket, that was really sweet." Paddocklad: "Ahhhhm fucking gutted, pet. was it something I said?"

Unfortunately not, mate. Got another pair of NUFC shorts from about 1989, (yes, the umbro is half missing on them as well). The only shirts I kept from around that time for whatever reason was the 1985 Northern Ireland one by adidas as well as the socks and the full KK admiral England strip from 1982. I'm not a hoarder but can't bare to chuck them out and nobody would pay good money for an old strip they couldn't wear themselves!

Also, while the Umbro badge is missing, they used to peel off anyway. Well the old crest certainly did at any rate. Curled up so you had to pick bits off. Exhibit A: Exhibit B: And finally one that actually stayed on!!!
