  1. £97.5M plus the £284M we owe to Mike when we popped round for a cuppa at his Buckinghamshire flat and asked him for a sub. Good old Mike said 'no bother, Geordie my old son' and we said we'd 'see him alright when we got our new glasses.'
  2. Dan Gosling, "I never asked Mike Ashley to sign me." Bought on a clause, not on skill or a need, bought with a hope he would be ok after his injury. Got him for zip so took a chance. He'd end up with headphones on at somewhere like Charlton v Gillingham for Sky sports Saturday but as an ex-player for a North-East club it's unlikely.
  3. I couldn't tell you a mumford and sons song and have no idea what a yurt is but am still enjoying this thread in what is a quiet TT summer period it has to be said.
  4. It's ok apart from the blue stripes, the sponsor and the huge patch on the back. So it's basically shit then.
  5. " I think, nar, am canny sure that the minastroanie soup should be before the skins, like, but hey, I'm just a cutting edge journalist on the 'United beat' as my old Mentor, Olly would say. You put the skins first if you want, wor kid."
  6. I wouldn't trust Ryder to write out todays lunch specials on a blackboard outside a Wallsend greasy spoon let alone a biography.
  7. He's doing quite a few Michael Owen pieces at the minute, here's a quick glimpse..... http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/michael-owen-reflects-sadness-shock-4749252 (If anyone's bothered).
  8. Well if he's good enough for Mark Hughes he's good enough for, wait, hang on......... .......Meet the boss, Eric. Mark 'Sparky' Hughes the player; Cunt. Mark 'Sparky' Hughes the Manager; Still a cunt.
  9. Ah but you're not a typical woman, (how many post on here, for a start!)
  10. It's a woman thing. Wife thinks people falling down is absolutely hilarious and therefore thinks Miranda is funny. Like LTB's description of a BBC London-centric by the way.
  11. Still think Obertan and Rob Elliot were Pardew signings. Maybe we should fuck Kinnear off and bring back KK as a DOF as he had a good knack of seeing a potentially good player.
  12. Abbeycentre. Never heard that name for a while. I bought our new 'greenalls barcode' shirt in the Abbeycentre.
  13. pretty sure adidas didn't want to continue with us rather than being outbid by puma as I remember reading a quote from an adidas spokesman more or less saying as much. The point about Chelsea getting that deal because of their success is my point as well! Anyway, the perception of our club is definitely lessened under Ashley.
  14. You're a canny lad, Gloomy but you're sooooooo Southern influenced now it's frightening. (Frightening for you, obviously, I couldn't give a fuck as it happens).
  15. As a club should we be looking at a more 'upmarket' brand as sponsor even at the expense of losing some money with an alternative sponsor? When the Wonga deal runs out will another potential sponsor look at us and think 'no thanks' as they may not want their brand to be associated with NUFC/Wonga. Adidas are kitting out a few clubs these days yet they did not want to be associated NUFC anymore when their deal ran out with us under the current mob. They haven't minded supplying clubs from West Ham to Hearts, from the Mackems to Derby in the meantime but didn't want to be with Mike Ashley's NUFC. Maybe it's just me but when you see the cheap deals we do on seats, driving down away support in case he loses the odd few quid, not strengthening the side adequately and generally cheapening the NUFC 'brand' since he's bought the club then Wonga may be the best we can do in the long run. It will be interesting to see who takes over our kit if Puma don't renew with us. Will we end up with 'Macron' like Villa have? Pretty sure I read that adidas have negotiated a new deal with Chelsea worth potentially £200M over ten years. Will we ever get a deal worth a quarter of that under this owner? Of course not as we are a cheap and chatty club with no real desire to become a giant in the game. Fucking depressing seeing Chelsea win the UEFA cup and they don't really give a monkeys fuck about it while we 'do well' to get to the 1/4 finals. Fuck modern football and fuck our owner.
  16. That's fair enough and it's obviously useful to you. As long as you filter the the stuff and pass it on here I'll make do with that for now.
  17. I looked for it as well but couldn't find it. Tried 'Taipei', 'sofa', 'fucking help, help!' and 'divvent hurt uz, ahl give ye whatever I've got, Daniel, San' but alas, no luck.
  18. Tell her that although you appreciate the feeling her vaginal muscles give to your erect penis as you enter her, you really don't think the Communist package holiday is the way to go for the modern handbag wearing middle aged male. New relationships at your age must be a pain when you're used to your own way, like.
  19. I don't doubt it may be useful at times but it really doesn't seem worth the effort from what I've seen and usually comes across as gibberish. As an aside, you know the news is being dumbed down when you hear '......such and such tweeted......' Fuck off, man!
  20. I stopped over in Paris one night, got up in the morning to go go down the local shop for a packet of gauloises and some pain aux raisin when I saw this this young lad take a turn a turn in goal on a nearby field. He was superb and it was his best position, he may or may not have been Moussa Sissoko but I definitely saw him with my own eyes.
  21. Most young foreign footballers won't have a clue about Pardew or Kinnear. I'd say that's a plus to be honest.
  22. Of course there has! Although I can't think of any Puma football shirts that have been really good.
