  1. Much the same quote on Talksport news.
  2. They're now saying it is Roeder! Nowt confirmed yet though. Aye, was about to post the same thing, their quote was something along the lines of "unconfirmed reports coming from Tyneside that Newcastle and Glenn Roeder have parted company."
  3. Don't let the door smack you on the arse on the way out Glenn.
  4. I feel far more comfortable with my appreciation of the sport having read that. *I guess you'd prefer a KAPOW ! BIFF ! and BANG ! bubble to appear whenever a blow was landed ?
  5. Inoperable means he'll be on drugs to control the cancer for the rest of his life. It means what he has cannot be cured and therefore IS terminal. Was told my Mam's cancer was 'inoperable', it was only after she died that I was told it was actually 'terminal' and that they choose not to use that word. Best of luck with it all Sir Bob. Cancer is not curable completely. He has always required reassessment, which is what probably spotted this early. Cheomotherapy can do just as good a job as an operation in this case, as you can't remove his lungs, hence 'inoperable', but not terminal. You're on borrowed time from the first diagnosis, which in Bob's case was decades ago Bollocks. You forgot to include your medical qualifications in that incredibly detailed and well thought out post. And I would need medical qualifications to dismiss something that is blatantly complete bollocks because.... You can't just pidgeon hole cancer, there are different forms which have completely different levels of aggression.
  6. Best e-mail Oscar with your findings, it'll no doubt ease his pain. I already have, but to be honest, I think he's too busy counting the £22m he won for losing that fight.
  7. Anyway, I had it a draw 115 - 115, a couple of rounds I scored even, I wouldn't argue the toss either way, I can't quite see how one of the judges gave it to Mayweather 116-112, that seems too wide for me.
  8. The result wont change you know! Fancy yourself as a boxing judge do you? Me, I used to be a contender! Its clearly a close fight, if I don't score it I won't be able to honestly say who I though won !
  9. I'm gutted too, although the result is just as I predicted, Mayweather is complete tosser, but sadly a fantastic boxer, I've always been a big DLH fan but the thing that will blight his entry in the record books is that he lost nearly all of his big fights: Hopkins Mayweather Mosely x 2 Trinidad I could only listen to it on the radio, who had Mayweather as a clear winner, whilst the bbc round by round update had it a draw, I SKY+ it and am now going to watch and score it myself.
  10. I'm glad we are are staying positive for the old boy.
  11. Sir Bobby Robson has vowed to "battle as I've always done" after revealing that the cancer he has fought on and off for 15 years has returned again. The former England football manager, who is 74, started chemotherapy treatment last week. But, typically, he was at St James' Park yesterday to watch Newcastle United play Blackburn Rovers. Sir Bobby has undergone cancer surgery four times but now doctors have recommended a six-week bout of chemotherapy after discovering small cancerous nodules in his lungs. However, Football on Sunday columnist Sir Bobby said he will carry on with his life as normal and plans to attend his annual charity golf day in Portugal. He will celebrate his 52nd wedding anniversary next month with his wife Elsie - whom he has called "my rock, because she's let me do my thing" - sons Paul, Mark and Andrew and four grandchildren. Sir Bobby said: "Of course, it's not the greatest news I've ever had but I have fought hard throughout my life and I will continue to fight. I will battle as I've always done. "My last operation in August was a success but this time the doctors have said they can't operate. "The good news is that they are measuring the nodules in my lungs in millimetres rather than centimetres! "That is encouraging and we are hopeful the treatment will keep it under control. "I've been advised to keep busy and active, and that's what I will be trying to do whenever possible." Sir Bobby, the son of a Durham miner, was knighted in 2001 and some of his sayings have passed into folklore, most memorably when he called Paul Gascoigne "as daft as a brush". He has enjoyed one of the most extraordinary careers in football, winning 20 England caps as a player - including playing in the 1958 and 1962 World Cups - and taking the team to the 1990 World Cup semi-finals during his eight years as the national manager. In February, asked why he is still passionately involved with the game, he said: "My wife wants me to go to Tesco's on Saturdays, but I just couldn't. I need the drug."
  12. Nope seemed to happen all on its own accord.
  13. So Roeder did a good job by not signing a shite centre back, only loaning him? credit where its due to our Glenn though Glenn gets no credit, it's all his fault What credit does he deserve and who's fault is ?
  14. Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder on being booed off the pitch: "Of course I know why they boo, they are frustrated, but they must understand that I'm equally frustrated. "I don't like talking about luck but we haven't had much and I hope I am given the opportunity in an injury-free season next time to carry on. "Today was hugely disappointing. We just can't buy a goal at the moment."
  15. Its so frustrating seeing us getting well beaten by Blackburn of all teams, we were the catalyst for there rise, we nick Souness off them and they appoint Hughes and haven't looked back since.
  16. Jason Roberts, been injured most of the season.......
  17. I don't want us to lose, but if we do, for fuck sake let it cost Roeder his job.
  18. According to SKY the crowd sound very restless lots of moaning and groaning, Blackburn sound well on top.
  19. Really? in some ways, good. How very predictable though. Not seen it myself, but that was the quote on SSN.
  20. 0-1 Benni McCarthy, following a Bramble howler.
