We banned ourselves from going to make sure stuff like the above never happened. One of them for me though as to be in 2006. We had boro away on the Sunday, and we had gone out on the piss in the town (our town) on the Friday night. I was absolutely ruined and had been drinking vodka red bull all night, probably up there with some of the worst states I've been in. On the way for the taxi a couple of us had seperated from the rest of the lads. We were walking up past Monument when I heard someone singing boro; well, anti-Newcastle songs. Red rag to a bull. I looked down Grainger Street and there were a couple of lads walking back down towards Central. I went down the street after them shouting horrendous Middlesborough related obscenities and waving my arms about like a derranged chimp. One of the lads was behind me telling me to pack it in. As I approached, one of them stopped singing and turned round. I remember thinking 'fuck me, he's a big bastard' and started to slow down a bit. I tried to walk past him to get at his skinny mate who was making the most noise, but he blocked me off and advised me to seek an alternative route. I questioned his sexual persuasions and shoved him out of the way, but before I could get to his mate, he'd grabbed me and pulled me backwards. He span me round, picked me up and threw me against some shop shutters. He then proceeded to go akka on my face with his fists. I was fucking arseholed and had absolutely no chance of fighting back. The lad I was with managed to kick him off me and we got up and walked away, but I was still giving it the big one. It was at this juncture that my mate lost his temper and punched me in the face. That sobered me up a bit. I attended the game on the Sunday with a fat lip and a sore nose, feeling like a proper bastard. We won 2-1 though, so I was victorious really. Class story that Wubble UC

In my eyes they showed a complete lack of respect or acknowledgment of the success that Hughton brought back to our club. He showed dignity and courage all the way through his tenure and I just felt they wanted to draw a line under him immediately and move on. Any positives they did make in that article was then countered by another point regarding his press techniques etc.

Not fighting related like yee radjeys but my ex lasses mother was petrified of bananas. Don't ask me why. She just fucking was. Anyway, they gave me my first car which was a Fiesta 1.1 popular plus as it was standing outside unused. I done it up, rolled like a king then decided to finish her daughter about 6 months later as she was psycho. Anyway, they said they wanted the car back so I went to the fruit shop around the corner, bought a few bunches of bananas and rubbed them al owa the interior and exterior of the car and left stray ones lying around it. She wasn't fucking happy about like. An absolute cunts trick from myself. In fairness though, I was only 18 and it was my pride and joy.

Finished with .com after the Hughton debacle. I may go back with my tail between my legs in the close season.

I'd take Huddlestone in the blink of an eye. Big, strong and not scared to have an effort. Smith must be fucking tremendous in training to get anywhere near the squad. Worst player in a toon shirt that I can remember. He offers us nixi defensively, in the middle or in attack. Pardew'll be blind to his inability to play at this level no doubt.

I've told ye's man, Mystic Keg's his name.

Puff puff give?

The other thing is that it's all just media speculation. I can't see them wanting Larsson to be too distracted ahead of this Carling Cup semi, considering that they were intending him to play. David Bentley will be there for the second semi so he won't be required for that. Therefore I can see his destination being sorted quickly now that this match is out of the way. If true rejecting him at 20k is like a second kick in the balls when you consider we're paying Smith 3 times that. I pay absolutely zero attention to how much players are paid per week but don't tell me he gets 60 thousand pounds. That's fucking atrocious. He's worth a bag of dry roasted and a pint of gladiator max. Disgraceful he accepts it tbh.

They're going wild on RTG. Kerplunking in their Y'ers owa' Tiote's failed appeal. Any amount of threads of us. Don't they fucking learn from the last time? Pipeing themselves off owa' how they were going to smash us then got the tight balls on matchday and capitulated. We just keep nicely quiet and see what happens. They really are, to a man, the bitterest shite hawks grazing planet earth. May we fuck them royally come sunday. 'what d'you think of sunderland ...

So are you meaning that they're more protected from sun damage as they eat more of the things they say we should to protect against it? Vitamin D helps protect against skin damage and it's been found that overweight people with skin damage have this possibly due to them having low levels of Vit D as it's stored in the fat and not circulating as it should.

Vitamin D is Fat soluble, yes? In fat people it gets stored in the fat instead of circulating through the blood where it's actually needed. Deficiency in Vitamin D is very high in skin cancer patients.

Skin damage occurs as a result of oxidation, a chemical process in which unstable molecules called free radicals, steal electrons from healthy cells. The most damaging stressors that we expose ourselves to are smoking and sunlight. You're probably familiar with some antioxidants, such as vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, and vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene). Others, which you may be less familiar with, are collectively known as phytochemicals (there are hundreds of them), and they are found in foods such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, and beans. These things can protect the skin and stop it aging as quickly, however fat is on the inside of the skin. The cells which are affected through skin damage are within an inch from the skins surface. Strange aswell how on holiday, in the heat, the fattest people seem to be the most burnt with heads like a fucking blood orange.

If it was a malfunction it would have been selected out. Since it wasn't there must have been a regional advantage dependant on environment. Land of the rising sun. They'd never get to work without them. I nearly put Rand of the Lising Sun there as well

Shameless doesn't push any of my buttons. It's alike to Beacon Lough Est. in Gateshead where alot of my family live and I found it wasn't so much a crazy show, as more like a documentary. I watched the first 2 series then havn't seen it since. The masses came flooded at series 3 and they went overboard with the storylines.

Cos we havent got anyone else. Who would you play there? Jonas hasn't actually been ruled out yet, btw. I'd play him. ok. My understanding was that he had definitely being ruled out....*goes to check* They're unsure still. I reckon we'll be doing all we can to get him fit.

I knew what you meant mate I was just being a pedantic mug. I think he'll make a good player, just meant he hasn't shown us alot to go on yet (as he's barely played).

Cos we havent got anyone else. Who would you play there? Jonas hasn't actually been ruled out yet, btw. I'd play him. Agreed, for all his faults he can carry the ball and relieve some of the pressure on the defence. He may get loads of abuse from our fans but he's far and away the best left sided player we have and if he's got half a chance of being fit for sunday I'd like to see him play. Enrique's game will be hindered imo with Ferguson in front of him.

Of course he's shown very little. He's made 4 appearances for us. So, we've seen very little from him. He looks like he'll make a player but it's far too early to put him into the first 11 away at the land of the undead.

Cos we havent got anyone else. Who would you play there? Jonas hasn't actually been ruled out yet, btw. I'd play him.

It baffles me how a player who's made just 4 appearances for us is being held in such high regard. He's 19 year old. Shown very little so far to throw him into a derby. You must be off ya fucking melt.

0-1 Barton to score. I'm quietly confident about sunday but we've got to get into them early like we did at Halloween. If we can score early they'll fucking shit themselves that we're going to do the double over them. Hate derby day and love it at the same time. Their main threats obviously Bent and Gyan but if we can keep them quiet I reckon our midfield should have a bit too much guile for them. Here's hoping.

Played all levels up to U21. Only been a sub at u21 level though I think.

Jamesy Cotter was a good character in it. I enjoyed the live video they done. I remember getting told Rab was dead mid 90's and believed it until about 2005 until I read about him again.
