Seems they're cut from the same cloth as good ol' christian boys like Buford Furrow and Eric Rudolph.

Newcastle United - Football Finances - This site stopped being actively maintained when Mike Ashley took over the club. The hope was that the financial mismanagement that had been the hallmark of the way Freddie Shepherd ran the club had come to an end. The anger at the departure of Kevin Keegan has made some people question whether Shepherd was as bad as we remember. This site has been updates to include the financial results for the last year that Shepherd was in charge. No one should ever underestimate the mess that Shepherd left the club in. This does not excuse anything Mike Ashley may, or may not have done subsequently. The 2008 figures have now been added and can be seen here.

How about a sticky for all the Newcastle blogs, like there's one for links to other message boards? I have one you can include too.

"Quentin Tarantino finds a climax unique in the history of war movies. QT is sometimes criticized for including too many references (some say whole scenes) from other movies in his own work. There are legends about his days as a video store clerk, memorizing B movies from the $1.99 bin. But the borrowed, or repurposed, or inspired, or quoted movie material in his films is there not because he lacks imagination but because he has too much. He loves movies with a fervor that inspires him to absorb us not only in his films, but in the films he loves. His arms are wide and gathers us in." -Roger Ebert

The reviews are in for Inglorious Basterds.... "a violent fairy tale in which the history of World War II is wildly re-imagined" "Surprising, nutty, windy, audacious. The picture is a completely distinctive piece of American pop art with a strong Euro flavour." "It was hard to miss Tarantino's skilled embrace of the elements that make theatrical moviegoing just plain great: scenes filled with dramatic tension, performances with depth and humor, rich and witty scoring choices, multi-lingual dialogue that Tarantino still stamps as his own, and knowing nods at cinematic history and the power of the medium he loves so well... As Brad Pitt says in the very last frame of the film, looking straight into the camera after a gruesome, signature task: 'This might be my masterpiece.'" "Tarantino remains the king of trashy cinema." "Vintage Tarantino to be sure" "This unashamed slice of Second World War hokum finds Quentin Tarantino in mischievous form as he takes on the Second World War with the driving force of a roller coaster ride." "Quentin Tarantino has made a glorious, silly, blood-spattered return."

I've seen this season as a good horror. More succesful seasons would be great comedies....or porn. Even getting humped, I enjoy the game. I enjoy giving them shit one second and singing their praises the next. Every match is still the one where we're going to turn it all around. I still do that childish thing where you pray for 3 goals in stoppage time as if it can happen. I enjoy singing "we're gonna win 5-4" when Liverpool are 4-1 up. Worse comes to the worse i enjoy making paper aeroplanes and seeing if I can reach the other stand.

This all presupposes that Man U won't hump Hull all over, whatever team they put out. I'm not convinced.

rly? Anyone who hasn't should question why they go to the football and consider giving it a miss for a while.....cos it ain't gonna get much better on the pitch whatever happens. What can you hope for in your wildest dreams? To challenge Fulham and Bolton in the chase for a Europa league place? Seems a reasonable philosophy HF. I think I hit rock bottom before most people on here and that was the day Souness was appointed, which has helped get things in perspective in retrospect (except the odd rant). Que sera sera and all that. Mind, I won't be feeling that on Sunday. Aye. You had it spot on about the Boro game. I enjoyed that as much as the 5-0 against Man U. Probably more.

I've enjoyed this season. If we go down I'll enjoy next season. If we stop up I'll enjoy next season. In those terms it matters not a jot. If we have designs on any kind of success, of course we need to be in the top-flight. But I can't see us being succesful in the next decade either way.

Aye, that's a sword that cuts both ways though. The media is telling everyone that banks are sorry and there are no more bonuses and 50% of city execs are joining monasteries to pay for their sins. The media is telling everyone that banks are actually paying out more bonuses now than they did before the credit crunch. Only Renton knows which is true. Lazy journalists write what they're told. Either by the people in charge ("We're regulating the shit out of this, rest assured"), or by the civil servants dropping the truth in their lap ("Everyone in power is on the take").

The BBC spout some shite like. A BBC reporter on the News at 10 claimed that domestic abuse killed more women aget between 15 and 44 than any other cause. To be fair, it's a lie that was perpetuated in government papers on the subject too. It's just amazing so many people believe what they're told. Most amazingly, supposed investigative journalists.
