Happy Face

Interesting trendlines. Take note Leazes, that's why qualifying for Champions League is harder now than it was in '97.

...and I thought the point should be made reasonably before LM came in with his haughty misplaced condecension

How about looking at silverware won by the departees.. Given - FA cup winner Milner - FA cup winner & League cup runner up Carroll - Leaue cup winner Enrique - League cup winner Duff - Europa league runner up Martins - League cup winner Carr - League cup winner Emre - Super Kupa winner & Super Lig winner Faye - FA cup runner up Sadly, if we were to base our retention efforts on trying to appeal to a players genuine desire for silverware, we'd be losing out to bids from the likes of Leicester, Middlesbrough and Wimbledon MK Dons, never mind the Liverpool's etc that Leazes is worried about. We'd do well to keep our mouths shut about that altogether tbh, our record is a complete disgrace and the biggest opportunities were all blown. A player is statistically better off being at virtually any other club than here using that criterion. Lets try and be positive about putting a good team together in the here and now and congratulate ourselves on each of the cunts we've shipped that couldnt give a shit. That doesnt apply to all in that list by any means, but overall, the effect has been a hugely positive one and thats all that matters. Agreed. I made the same point as JTM a year and a half back, cos it's gratifying to see want-aways fail.... http://www.toontastic.net/board/topic/28694-viduka-martins-and-owen/page__view__findpost__p__805736 Just providing balance that we needn't be conceited and start sucking each others cocks just yet.

Nae bother. He said 7th.

"From day one I’ve tried to be open and honest about the financial model we’re operating. I understood the fans’ initial resentment. "Mike (Ashley) set out to make Newcastle self-financing and I knew exactly what that framework entailed when I took the job in December 2010. "I’ve aimed to be transparent with the supporters and give them clarity about what we are trying to achieve and how we will operate in the transfer market. They know that in certain circumstances we will sell players. From day 1 he was saying he was 100% sure we'd keep Carroll. Think he learned his lesson there and it's been since about day 55 that he's been a bit more clever.

As the league stands... If Chelsea do the double... Man u, man city, arsenal, Chelsea - CL Spurs, Liverpool, Newcastle (5th) - EL If Chelsea only win the fa cup... Man u, man city, arsenal, Spurs- CL Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle (5th) - EL If Chelsea win nowt Man u, man city, arsenal, Spurs - CL Liverpool, Newcastle-(5th), Chelsea (6th) EL It only screws us if we finish 4th and lose out on champions league on double checking.

After the Liverpool shambles an English winner takes the place from a 4th place finisher. 4th becomes the Europa league place. Not a worry like cos Barca will moider them But 5th would still get its place in the EL? In which case if Chelsea finished 5th and already have CL, then it drops to 6th place, surely? I still don't see how it can impact us. As you say, they'll get beat anyway. No, still only 3 Europa places. CL 1, 2, 3 and Chelsea EL - 4, FA cup an Liverpool If spurs win the cup and finish 4th, EL goes to 5th......I think, might be runner up.

I make no bones about it, I'm looking for more free space and hope some of you will follow this referral..... http://db.tt/fkmY6Tx1 But even if I wasn't, I'd recommend it. Even if you've tried before and thought it was poo. Much better now with the ability to drag and drop. Its almost like windows explorer in the cloud.

Well I said 5 forward as a figure of speech. You said they had gone 3 backwards and 1 or 2 forward suggesting that the club was in a worse position from when they took over. As the club is now in a better position than when they took over, surely they have gone forward now more steps than back? My opinion has always been that Souness destroyed Robsons teams and set us back years. He took us down to 14th after all the work SBR had done and had he remained we would have likely been relegated. Roeder came in and done a commendable job turning around and getting us back to 7th. SA then came in and turned us in to a team of sloggers and back down the table we went. Then MA came in and handled the managerial side appallingly. The KK affair, bringing in JFK, This imo is why we were relegated. But a decent first season back in the prem (12th) and now currently 5th (to finish 4th~6th) shows two solid seasons of improvement with the best side we have had since 03/04. I know you use your crystal ball to look at the next 5 seasons and base your opinion on things as if they were fact, but as you know I look at the here and now and am not even judging next season. If Leazes wants to boo 5th then he's welcome to. Everyone can see that makes him the worst hypocrite the board has ever seen.

We never finished top 5 four seasons in a row under hall/shepherd. We only did it 3 times in ten year before Ashley arrived.

Don't be tempted to go to Lau's, it looks nice from the outside, but the staff are rude and the food while being cheap is shite. Was only in two weeks ago for the first time, and was very disappointed. Call Mr Lau, that's my name, that name again, its Mr Lau

Carrols winner yesterday

Has KSA hacked Leazes account?

KSA is right about me being right. Just like the JB's.

The 'B' in Bee Gees stood for Brothers not Barry, you twonk Another example of Barry's smarts that he had the other 2 believing that. Who the fuck says "the brothers Galacher". nae fucker. If the g was for brothers it would be the gee bees wouldn't it?

They didn't win anything though.

You always knew Barry would outlast the other 2. BG himself is a lion if of a fella, who has alpha maled the other 2 for years to their untimely deaths. The R Gees would never have worked would it? Or the M Gees.....maybe that would have, but Maurice always showed more interest in hats than leading the band. When THE Bee Gee dies, there should be a national day of mourning. It'll be like the passing of Mufasa. Get well soon Robin, though I always thought you looked like an evil genius who should have been in a Bond film.

a program from New Blue FX called UpShift which converts the highly compressed MTS (AVCHD) files to M2T (lightly compressed MPEG-2) files. http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/sony-vega-and-sony-hd-hdr-sr10-questions

Vegas 11 came out last year though, think it's time for an upgrade.

Intel Core i5 Processor speed: 3 GHz Processor cache: 6 MB Memory (RAM): 4 GB Dedicated graphics: AMD rad HD6450 1 GB Full spec here... http://www.toontasti...ost__p__1016062 Think my vegas is 8.1

to Need something that converts HD to Avi so I can edit on me computer. HD is impossible to edit on any of my mahcines....Lag and all that... Struggled with it for years...in the end I got a new PC over christmas. Vegas handles HD files no bother now....and it was only a £500 desktop. Having said that, i still struggle to render HD in Vegas. No clue what settings to use

BECAUSEICOULDNTSEE in the work sweep. I'll not throw away any more money than that.
