I did wonder about that as but I couldn't remember. Fit / available according to .com. He didn't feature in Europe either though, did he? Like I say, maybe a bit early for him.

They're all different but you have a point in that Ba and Cisse definitely want to take up the same positions. Shola on last season's form would be a better partner for either of them than Ba and Cisse are for each other. Funny how Ranger is ahead of Campbell in the pecking order now seemingly. Suggests Campbell's not ready (according to Pardew at least). It's also not ideal blooding youngsters in a struggling side.

You mean Keith Richards? I actually take flax seed-based omega 3,6 and 9 (with being veggie / not eating any fish) and I think my memory is better than it used to be (not the main reason I take them). Mind, I used to be really forgetful when I was a young kid.

I use a delivery service

Well we normally sit upstairs near the bar which they don't bother opening any more. I'm not even going to the game so I'll probably meet catmag there for about half 4-ish.

I've never rated SImpson. He's a shit footballer and a less than competent defender. He's basically an athlete and that's about it.

I propose meeting for a couple in The Trent straight after the game (I know it's shit now but it's handy) then getting the fuck out of dodge / catching the yellow bus down to the Ouseburn. Any objections?

I wonder if there are any top managers out there who are available, better than Pardew and willing to come and earn about the same as Nile Ranger's on.

I think that's fair enough but I think Stevie made a great point recently about the summer leading to a loss of the momentum. We should never have sacked Hughton tbh

What a fucking tragedy this kid is

Nee room for spider's legs with them like.

Pardew'll be reading this board shitting himself in case CT starts backing him again

He's nee Godfrey Chitalu though.

Great film like.

Assuming that happens will you join the dots and consider that it may be because the owner didn't invest in the squad last summer after the team had qualified for Europe? Or didn't 'back his manager', if you like. Or will it all be down to the manager? Because I actually think a fair few of them might want away because it must have been a kick in the stotts not getting more new recruits after the effort they put in and spirit they showed last season.

It's ridiculous like.

The Fish bustin' his moves in Gotham Town btw :lol:

Does the title remind anyone else of this:

I thought it was absolutely great (and I haven't watched it in years). We'll be lucky if we see another sporting year as good as 2012. I think on balance Bradley Wiggins was a just winner but any one of them would've probably been fair enough.

So fuck? Loads of people die in car crashes. Are you bored or something? Pick a better subect to take the piss out of next time, eh? Or I'll pop a cap in your ass.

Tbf though you are Alf Garnett sans irony.

It's a messageboard, a private members club if you like. Either way, my point was, you don't speak for the views of the board (neither does Ant). It's just your opinion on the bloke. Fair enough, but don't start listing people who agree with you when it's bollocks. You did it with me when I wasn't even posting here (and agreed with the ban for that matter). As you like to say "Why lie?"

It's nee different to you except you on this issue, except he's got more say. Which is fair enough tbh.

Ant put a load of work in here in his own time, pays for the place off his own back and gets constant abuse from Leazes via Twitter. I don't suppose he's that arsed about the latter but it probably gets his goat when people tell him he should unban Leazes. I don't blame him. I think he's a good lad too fwiw.

How so?
