  1. £300,000 for Blob Eliot, reckon we'll recoup that modest sum? £5M for Santon? £3.25M for Obertan?
  2. We'll take a hit on Anita and Riviere as well. (£6.7M and £6.3M).
  3. We'll make a loss on him, Fish. I'd be amazed if we didn't as skillful as he sometimes looks regardless who ends up managing us.
  4. "Looking good Den, looking fackin good my old san."
  5. Argo and Life of Pi. Enjoyed Argo but wondered why in the credits at the end they never mentioned the aborted attempt by their special forces where eight of them died? Also got to see the bit where "The Brits turned them away" when they actually put them up for a night. I still enjoyed it but tut, tut, those pesky Hollywood films, coming over here, making up shite, etc. Life of Pi was a strange one, watched it as I thought my nine year old would like it which she did, but wasn't as good as I thought it might be. Not bad all the same. Yours sincerely, Barry Norman Happy Acorn Resting Home, London, W12 8QT 23rd May, 1983
  6. Ronny Gill not holding back either; http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/haris-vuckic-wants-follow-footsteps-8505379?
  7. No idea what to eat for tea. Probably be a take away which I don't really fancy. We seem to be in a bit of rut lately having the same meals all the time. Doesn't help when the kids are a bit fussy.
  8. I had to reset my DNS settings then clear the cookies and cache for it to work before changing it back.
  9. Cheers! (I'll tell you what, he's a real find, this poster).
  10. I've changed it to a carefully selected dns setting which allows me to watch all our premier league games.
  11. Weird how I can open certain pages on here but not others. I've even deleted the parental controls as well. I'm getting a bit pissed off with this BT shite.
  12. It's the ncjMedia's men in black trying to silence the truth.
  13. Any idea why my pc wont let me on the Newcastle page of Toontastic or some of the threads but only let me on here? (Only time I can get on Newcastle threads is when I go on history but that's it). I've already cleared cache/cookies but it;s still not playing ball.
  14. 'Dingleberries'? Fucking 'Dingleberries'?
  15. CT could rightly say he stepped back and let his way of life grow on Toontastic with him watching smugly in the background nodding his head in approval.
  16. BEEP BEEP! Stevie, we have an OOTer! Repeat, we have an OOTer! Couldn't have put it better myself.
  17. The secret diary of Lee Ryder aged 44 and a half. 21/01/2015 He's a great lad, he's a canny lad, He's a sight for sore eyes, Yes, We've got Lee Ryder, Writin' 'bout the Magpies! Well ah woke up this morning, Well really it was after one, And ah switched on me laptop, To see what was on, And then what ah saw, Cor, It nearly knocked me doon, The pure fucking gold dust, Lee Ryder wrote aboot the Toon He's a great la....... BEEP BEEP!!!! BEEP BEEP!!!! BEEP BEEP!!!! This was how ah woke up this morning, ah was dreaming ah was at a special Tyne Tees award ceremony to honour outstanding North East figures. Ah was chosen as the best North East Sports Media representative and they'd managed to get the famous Geordie, 'Don Juan' to revise his 80's tribute song, 'Wor Kev' and change it to 'Wor Lee' as I was collecting my award from Roger Tames when me morning alarm interrupted the award ceremony. Ah smiled to meself and thought this might just be an omen. Anyways, when ah got into work ah could feel something was afoot in the Thomson House nerve centre, there was a few hushed voices and the tension was pulpa, palpob, where you could almost feel it! Even Mr Eats wasn't munching into something. Ah overheard one of the office juniors say we were getting our first big club interview since the ban was lifted and ah thought back to me dream that morning, an omen indeed! Ah walked up to Gibbo's office as me workmate, Neil Cameron walked out and asked John what was up? What was the big secret? Gibbo said that Lee Charnley was giving The Chronicle an exclusive interview as we'd played ball so far with being onside since the big thaw in relations between The icons of NUFC and Thomson House. In this new Geordie Glasnost we were getting first dibs on the new Toon supremo and his thoughts about carefully selected questions! "That's fucking great, John!" Ah says, "When will he be here and where shall ah interview him?" Gibbo coughed and ah thought he's going to have to watch his lifestyle, like, but he then said, "Err, Lee, I err, I kinda thought I'd pass this one onto Cams, like." Ah thought me hearing was going on the blink, "Wha, wha, what?!" ah said, "Ya fucking kiddin' aren't ya? Did ah just imagine that Trinity Mirror Group regional sports writer of the year award or what?!" Gibbo replied, "Lee! Lee! calm down, son. This story isn't for you, trust me." "How the fuck do you make that one out?" ah answered back. Gibbo then explained to me how Charnley was just a glorified office boy, an accountant in all but name. "Lee, son, he'll just come out with facts and figures and use his fancy big words, that's not what youre about, kidda. You're the main man the punters want to read, you talk their language, they want to read your stuff about ex players and Geordie legends as well as your brilliant match reports. The biggest compliment I can give you, son, is this.......if you weren't writing for the Chronicle, you'd be first in queue to buy it on a Monday morning, that's why the punters love you." Ah couldn't believe this was his excuse in not giving me the Charnley scoop, Ah was staggered, ah was stunned. They say we're a dead eyed bunch in journalism with no emotions but ah was gobsmacked and genuinely touched. "You believe that? That the punters love me 'cos ah'm one of them?" Ah sniffed, "Err, whey aye, man!" Gibbo exclaimed. Ah then thanked him for his kind words before passing Neil Cameron interviewing Charnley. Aye, fuck you, Cams, ah thought. You stick to interviewing Penfold, Ah'm off to interview the legendary Freddy Shepherd. Stick that in ya pipe and smoke it. Lo and behold two hours later ah've got 'Ashley, Royal Bank of Rangers' headlines from the Byker bruiser, the one time Chief supremo of Barrack Road. Me loyal readers will lap it up and it comes, as always, via the peoples writer, one Lee Ryder esq. Ah'm Goff. See-ya.
  18. Obviously bad crack that a young lad was found dead outside your work, mind.
  19. In related news, West Yorkshire police arrest a man on suspicion of murder in nearby offices where the kid worked who was notorious for irrational office hatred towards his work colleagues. His work window overlooked the resting place of his many victims a poilce spokesman confirmed.
  20. Yeah, don't be like the ignorant guys.
