Jimbo

will probably be fighting it out on the beaches with Kenwyne Jones for the lucrative Watch trade.

I think we know how he feels.

a chink in the armour

It's more that I know who I don't want to win tbh

Come on Arsenal.

So it seems

Indeed, can't seem to get him up recently, due to current results Same here dude, it's like trying to play snooker using a length of rope.

Prince Albert ?

One in each nipple ?

Episode 14

MIKE Dean will take charge of Monday night's mammoth basement battle with Middlesbrough at St.James' Park. The Wirrall whistler last presided over a Magpie fixture during the 2-1 Boxing Day defeat at Wigan in which Sebastien Bassong was sent off. Dean was also the man in the middle for the 2-1 home win over West Brom in October. He will be flanked by assistants Mr P Tierney and Mr S Beck.

until further notice....

Welcome to the board, I'm sure none of us would disagree with that.

RIP Captain Chaos.

He could have been more cautious but as you say, the result would have been the same, instead he came out all guns blazing ala Hagler Vs Hearns, sadly he ended up reprising the Hearns role rather than Hagler.

Standard club rules tbh. I'm more surprised that they weren't in place beforehand. (then again NOTHING surprises me with NUFC any more). Did you see the fuckers laughing and joking as the Setanta cameras filmed them going to the dressing room? Particularly that mop-haired Argentinian cunt. God I hate him! useless cunt hate! FYP

Did it need a list ? surely lateness is being late for any event or occasion where there is a set time for arrival ?

Alan Shearer has reportedly angered a number of Newcastle United players after presenting the squad with a set of rules which carry penalties running into tens of thousands of pounds. By Telegraph staff Last Updated: 3:55PM BST 05 May 2009 The list, which comprises of 12 policies centred on punctuality, came into effect on April 29 and was presented to players as they prepared to face Liverpool in the league. Any violation of the rules culminates in players being fined 10 per cent of their weekly salary for a first offence, 20 per cent for a second and 40 per cent for a third - anyone in breach after three strikes will have their fine decided by the manager. Shearer has also stressed to his players that the list is by no means comprehensive and other forms of tardiness may result in them being penalised. With Newcastle battling for survival in the Premier League the timing is said to have angered a number of players who think the club's focus would be better spent on tactics and on-field improvements. Unsurprisingly the level of the fines has not been met with open arms either. The 12 "Brian Clough-esque" rules marks Shearer's latest move to get tough on a team he claims have been too relaxed in the past. According to The Sun, when he and assistant coach Ian Dowie were first ushered into help out at St James' Park, their disciplinary regime was widely welcomed, but it now appears certain members of the squad consider it excessive. The paper quotes a club source as saying: "Nobody would disagree that a club needs to be properly organised, with discipline and an order everyone understands. “But to start writing down a list of offences that will get you fined at this stage of the season seems strange. “It seems counter-productive to do it with so few games left. How many times could a player possibly be late for airport check-in now? It is just getting some people’s backs up. “The players want to get Newcastle out of relegation trouble and want a good team spirit but don’t think this is particularly helpful. “It is true some have been late on occasions but there are a couple of serial offenders. Some are never late and it looks like they are all being tarred with the same brush." What constitutes lateness in Shearer's eyes: * Late for meal at team hotel * Late for meeting at team hotel * Late for walk at team hotel * Late arrival at team hotel * Late for airport report time * Late for coach report time * Late reporting to stadium dressing room * Late for meeting at training centre * Late for meals at training centre * Late reporting for treatment * Late out on to the training pitch * Late arrival for training

I'm seriously losing patience now, the so called "answers" just smack of utter desperation, I'm honestly questioning whether it is worth 45mins of my time every week.

I honestly think he'd have been booed off the park had we been at home.

Must have been a distant relative of mine, did he have hairy palms ? Hairy palms and baldy pate Got to be, who needs DNA with evidence like that !

Seriously though, I've done it again, the kiss of death of the Jimbo shirt, first Hamman, then Dyer, and now Martins, if I ever mention getting a name and number on a shirt again you have permission to bitch-slap me.
