    He cooked his veg (in a variety of methods) for 35 minutes..
  5. I’ve heard that somewhere. Probably going to drive a bit and then get the super smashing trains a bit too
  6. In a flurry of fuck January. I’ve booked a bergamo - como - florence - Naples trip in April and a cabin in the lakes in August with 6 mates.
  7. Would have to pay me a fiver to sit in L7 at this time of year
  8. More of a defensive midfielder isn’t he? Hopefully more mobile than the ones we already have
  9. Buying a striker and midfielder wouldn’t make us a good team, because it would probably mean changing the way we play. Which wouldn’t suit the other players we have too well. Agree about the squad been a solid hardworking one. Rafa wanted to improve the whole club, which yeah would have taken a lot of money but at least he was ambitious. It’s a bit of a straw man to say nobody else has touched him with a barge pole, he will definitely be back in Europe at some point and at a more ambitious club than us (in my opinion). Fact is Rafa has won trophies at every club he has managed (might need fact checking) and we haven’t won anything in my lifetime, or even been close with Ashley in charge. To go from a serial winner to Steve Bruce is a bit galling me for me though. Those are reported figures, which if true is great. Why couldn’t Rafa have that money? Or decide where it was spent? He said Joe wasn’t worth the money, been proved right so far in my book. We may have spent more than most this season, but that doesn’t take into account previous years of underspend or profit making, so is disingenuous. I don’t think anyone has had a go at you for going to the match, people are free to do whatever they like. Ulitmately I don’t think anyone wants us to get beat really, they want an ambitious football club to get behind and properly support. I think a lot of it is schadenfreude regarding Ashley and his terrible decisions that even us men on the street can see are wrong.
  10. You can celebrate winners all you want mush, I’m sure a lot of the people on here who dislike Bruce did too. The problem with swallowing what is being served up is it’s indicative of the regime, we survive on a whim or a shoestring. You can’t honestly believe we deserve to be where we are in the league based on the showings this seasons? Unless there is either a change of heart from Ashley and he properly supports the team, or he leaves this is as good as it gets. This is the culmination of Newcastle United, aim for safety and everything else is a bonus. It’s not what I thought of when I first started supporting a football team, it’s not what Sir Bobby or Kevin Keegan or Rafa Benitez thought when managing us. I actually like a lot of our players, they graft and they can defend very well and generally are a likeable bunch. But this aiming for survival is draining and honestly drains the fun from the game. Enjoy the win, I did because fuck Chelsea and I’m glad for the players.
  11. Nope, lead singer of the California raisins
  12. Been dragged into the freezing Manchester night to meet my GFs mates new BF. Bloke is a weapon. Might be a long night
  13. I don’t get this like. She is a 4/10 after 3 pints mate.
  14. What kind of place are you looking to go and how far do you mind walking?
  15. Years ago I went to flamingo land with a lass I was seeing, she wanted to go on the 4D spongebob experience. The seat lurched you about, it smelt weird and they sprayed water in your face. Imagine that is exactly the same, and really useful to you.
  16. Shouldn’t be letting players declare themselves fit, the stupid cunt. What are the doctors and physios for?
  17. Margot Robbie in that is one of the most pointless parts ever. Apart from being a stone cold fox like, she has maybe 3 lines?
  18. He look pretty decent when he was at Charlton and Everton. Really quick, but played on the left wing rather then up top. We wouldn’t pay what they want for him anyway.
  19. Interested in which one specifically Renton is tossing it off too from Derry Girls. The little chubby blonde one or the curly dark haired one, or the nun
  20. AS rich as a person with a job?
  21. Loads of journos ripping the head off it over Leeds tonight on twitter. They got beat. By the worst arsenal team in a decade. Yorkshire cunts. I fucking hate Leeds.
