The richer he gets the better for us. It has absolutely no relevance for the well-being of the club tbh. I'd rather see him going bancrupt and to be forced to sell the club. Ofcourse it will. When he bought us he had something like 1.5 billion wealth. Think that then dropped circa 2008 down to about 700 million. Its basic instinct that most of us feel better about spending more when we feel richer / better off, expecially with the world economy gradually picking up (at SD anyway) I've seen nothing since the start of his tenure to suggest he'll be anything but tight with his money. You're right in the statement that when we have money we feel better about spending it but this is Mike Ashley we're talking about. I predict more purse clutching until the time someone offers him the astronomical figure he wants for the club. Tbf, I'd rather not have Pony tracksuit bottoms and Donnay socks paying for our next big stars ...

:lol:I love how you have put what colour he is ffs there was no racist connotation, I'm in deepest Lewisham mate. That's opened the door to the serial abusers to say I'm racist, just looks funny seeing a black bloke in Earmuffs, reminded me of Cool Runnings. Class. They reckon it's going to start again tomorrow. cue; Excuses rolling into workplaces across the region that people are 'snowed in'.

I hate people who say, 'He's a nice lad once you get to know him'. They might as well just say 'He's a dickhead, but you'll get used to it'

What have Sam Allardyce and Ashley Peacock got in common? Neither will be attending the rovers christmas party.

Just like Ashley Peacock, he'll not be at The Rovers christmas party.

I am suprised a masonry chimney breast wasnt strong enough Ill be fitting it with someone so dont worry. Cheers though Chimney breast :lol: I live in Wallsend mate, it's strictly electric made to look like an actual fire. It's on the wall between my house and my next door neighbours. Regardless of the wall strength though, defo spring clips.

When I put mine on about 2 years ago it was to go above the fire. The wall I wanted to attach it to wasn't strong enough to hold the bracket (or so it seemed) so I attached it with spring clips to hold against the inside of the wall. I cant give any recommendations on which particular bracket to use, mate but I'd definitely advise using spring clips for extra safety to stop your TV falling off the wall mid babestation. Personally for the bracket, I just went into Fenwicks in town and asked the duck eggs in there for their advice. Tip - Don't try and do it all yourself, you'll definitely need a helper for lifting the tele onto the bracket and if you're anything like me, to make sure the bracket is attached effectively. In summary, it's a right fuck on but once it's done you'll be living the dream. Great when you've got kids as it stops them getting their manky paws on it.

Have a game of bingo with the following statements, mate. 'They've got to blame someone' 'Mike knows what he wants' 'Mike has the interests of the club at heart' 'Mike has invested untold amounts which the fans dont appreciate' He'll talk shite, you'll get annoyed and hate the horrible little rat even more, if that's at all possibly. Feedback his shit thoughts here if you wouldn't mind. I can barely stand to look at him.

Football focus is pitiful, anyway. Wise'll never get another job in football so happy to sit alongside other shite such as Dixon, Le Saux and Lawrenson. I'd watch it, if there wasn't another show on at a similar time with people who know what they're talking about. (Le Tissier not included, btw).

He's a gent among shithounds, tbf. I've always like Gibson for his commitment to a club where the fanbase is about as committed as Jonas going into a 50/50. I'm meeting a good one on Thursday as it happens. Marietta Higgs was a canny lass too. Was that the nutter doctor who utilised the thoroughly awful 'anal test machine'? Abit of a maverick she was, tbf.

All I see is that the debt levels have gone from £77m in 2007 upto £282m in 2009. A jump of £205m. It's about 200% more than previous. Great, eh. Or am I missing something?

Karma has been reversed since Hale Bopp hit Jupiter. You gave us Darren Peacock, and Keith Gillespie. We've done more good business with you than any club aye. Batty, Shearer, Given etc.. + Khizanishvilli. haha at least we could give him back. Actually he wasn't that bad to be fair. People remember Darren Peacock and Gillespie with rose tinted glasses. Peacock technically was shite and Gillespie had the same good game ratio as Shola. So we've done well with Blackburn, but something tells me we signed someone really shite off them late 70's early 80's and I can't remember who it was. Do you mean the centre half Barton who scored more own goals than actual goals for us. I'm sure he played between about 78 - 82 ish. He was shite, I know that much. Can't remember his first name. David? Derek? Donald?

Must admit I'm feeling like a bag of shite today, mind. I've had to keep the bairn off school with boy flu. The perks of dependancy leave. One thing though, how come no matter what's wrong with a man it's automatically written off as 'man flu' but when a woman is ill it's 'oooh me fannys sore' or 'Womens problems'. All for equality until .....

I've never forgiven them for sending on Graeme Fenton to ruin our hopes back in '96. West Ham, Wolves, Blackburn for the drop.

Imagine what we'd be like if Ben Arfa had stayed fit and Barton hadn't been suspended? Probably top four and one Mr Hughton still in a job. Ben Arfa and Barton both played against Stoke and Blackpool...at home....we lost both those games. Suppose that's the benefit of a hypothetical argument rather than a fact based one though. Facts I take your point but Ben Arfa only got 10 or so minutes against Blackpool and Tiote wasnt playing. The point as I think Liverpool proved, is that usually when we have our best team out we play extremely well and recent results would probably have been quite different if the best team had been playing. I think the players have been great at getting themselves 'up' for the big games (the first home game, the derby, Hughton's farewell, Arsenal) but that's been pretty rare in all honesty, and really given us a lift whenever it's happened. We've been average otherwise and downright awful on occasion. That in itself is brilliant. I expected us to be awful far more frequently. But top 4 talk is ridiculous. If Barton and Tiote and Ben Arfa and Nolan had all been fit and not banned throughout the season we might have a few more points, and if John Travolta didn't bum men he wouldn't be gay. :icon_lol:

Any man who chooses to endorse The name 'Big' anything deserves to be shit on in life. I hope he ends up potless being fondled in Casa St. James by a clockwork orange touring parade.

Aye you're right, it didn't go down well, tbf.

Is that them two little blonde shits who always get up to mischief? My son watches it and another one they're in where their mother is a right sort. Got a nice chassis on her for her age. I'd be straight up her back wheel. Horrid Henry is probably the only one I'll pay any attention to when it's on. Not got a patch on Plastic Man which aired through my youth. Maybe I'm showing my age there though.

Ye takin the piss? Aye, mate. Although I do like Big River. If I'm being honest I'm down with old hip hop and stuff. Luniz, Warren G and the likes. This owing to the fact I was a 'proper caner' back in the day.

Deek the Juice, Lindisfarne and Jimmy Nail are basically all I listen to out of choice. Half the shite on the wireless is cool kids singing about their mam didn't make their bed etc. Although I am partial to a bit of Scaffold - Lily the Pink for some reason. Elton fucking John, give owa', man. I am jealous of his crop though.

She's probably heard he 'out-lengths' Sol and Shola, the harlot. I think Barton and Nolan will stay. Even the FCB must see we're half the side with them missing. Then again ....

oh dear. What was that you said previously when we were playing in europe "anybody but Fred" wouldn't embarras you like this ? Poor little thing you ..... I'm off out now lad. In the meantime, put up posts of mine which prove I was wrong or put up your own hands and hide your embarrassment at your cluelessness... Get yourself out if you are bored mate. Ten-four rubberdick. pmsl. Why do you always attack LM's virility? I'll be pleased if am getting beamers at that age. Nah tbf it's just a speculative guess at why he always appears on here completely radge at 1 in the morning. If there is actually owt affecting his virility mind he could do worse than laying off the sauce for a bit. The line 'ten-four rubberdick' just makes me laugh for no reason though so I admit that's juvenile. It's on Phoenix Nights. Paddy says it to Max when they're on the headsets. I remember it. I love Phoenix Nights, I loved Max and Paddy's too even though everyone said it was wank. I loved the bit where Status Quo is on the radio, and they're nodding their heads, and the plastic toy at the front of the van is. Then they go and chop the speed camera down and everyones tootin their horn driving past in appreciation. Anyway well off topic, we're not getting bought if we do it'll be off some daft cunts like Hicks and Gillette, or a skint geordie like that Barry Moat. The scene when they are singing in the van and "Brian" rings Paddys phone and his name's saved in as 'Ironside'. 'He's Jerry the Berry, Perry'

They're a half decent side but offer very little up front, tbf. Saylor should hopefully keep tight to "Sewper Kev". They're more dangerous on the break and even at home seem happy to sit back and hit teams on the counter. 2-1 to us. Barton and Ranger to score. Hopefully Pardew (spits) will have Shola sussed out this week and play Nile ahead of him.
