I think it's one of those scenarios where you like the antiquity of it but wouldn't want to watch football there every other week in all honesty-so while you mean well, it actually sounds more condescending than Stevie's output. I say the same thing about Craven Cottage for instance, but like fuck would I want it for a home ground.

If we lose, at least I'll have the satisfaction of not waking up and/or going to work in a shit hole the next day. Reminds me a bit of that Winston Churchill quote when some ugly woman reprimanded him for being drunk. Paraphrasing I think the gist of his reply was 'Yes, I'm drunk, and you're ugly. But in the morning, I will be sober'. I always bear that in mind after our once-a-decade defeat. That's what I said. That "TEED" who's posted on here before saying that posters on Newcastle Online were taking the piss out of some mackem who died of a heart attack during the game. Scumbags to be fair if that's true, shame he can't find the thread like. Fuckin Everton grotty little club who had 5,000 empty seats against Man Utd most expensive ticket £34 a go. The thing with Everton they HATE the fact no one other than Liverpool notices them, it boils their piss. 9 league titles though, surely the most overachieving small club in world footballing history. Shit ground, shit fans, shit everything really. Sunderland are as big as Everton if not bigger in my eyes, certainly fanbase wise. Should get Moxey to burn their wooden ground down Bradford style. That's supposed to have happened on Newcastle Online. Aye, right, the website where you get a lifetime ban for calling someone a twat, I can see that happening. Skunkers, maybe, but I still doubt it. As for Everton - 'the People's club' ffs, they are easily one of the most bitter clubs and set of fans I have ever witnessed, which is why they are scouse mackems. Just like scouse cockneys (spurs), scouse mancs (citeh), and souse brummies (Birmingham). All got one thing in common - a massive fucking chip on their shoulders. All these clubs fans are guaranteed to give it a round of 'Where were you when you were shit' without a trace of irony, that's how you can detect them. QFT. As best evidenced by ClubEverton himself who, when coming on here to do a 'lighthearted' piece on an upcoming fixture, turned into an absolute bosseyed wank hound, foaming at the mouth when we didn't all fall over ourselves to tell him how good/superior to us Everton were. One of the saddest things witnessed on here in the last year tbh.

You came second ffs. Nobody cares. That sort of goes to the point he's making tho tbf. We finished second and the country was wanking for us like mad. Living outside of Newcastle I witnessed it for myself. Were they? No, you got commended for the type of football you played which endearered you to the media. That's about it, runners up isn't an achievement of any note at all. Aye I agree completely, second is no achievement at all as far as honours are concerned. First is everything and second is absolutely nowhere. Which is why the attention we seemed to generate was so remarkable. Everton have won cups during that same time and tbh (no offence) genuinely nobody gave a shit or batted an eyelid. And that's not me having a go because obviously a relatively recent trophy is something you can quite properly laud over us-I'd give anything to win one tbh. But even when we don't it's much better to belong to this football club (and by that I mainly mean the fanbase and the identity of it all), than it is to say, Everton, Villa, Tottenham etc. In terms of tribalism it completely pisses it and that's basically all the commentators/pundits are on about when they pass comment on TV.

Don't listen to this fucking wanksplash mate, I actually live in Trafford. What part of Manchester have you moved to like? Its actually Salford but it might as well be fucking Manchester as Deansgate is bout 1min walk from my flat. Can see the wheel and the Cathedral from the window (just to give you an idea where I mean). Oh aye, I know where you mean, up near the CIS-it's only Salford cos it's the wrong side of the river but it's slap bang in the city centre to all intents and purposes. There's loads of places in the town centre to watch the footy but I don't watch toon games there out of choice tbh cos theres always an element that drink in the city centre that want to test. Lass O'Gowrie might be a shout mind you as it's a bit more studenty (and a decent pint). Once you're in the suburbs like most pubs have a decent handful of toon fans in wherever. I'd only recommend South Manchester though tbh as North and East Manchester are both shitholes and Salford (West) is just Salford. So a shithole and red.

Oh dear. Sounds like some lass has pissed on Dave's chips again.

It must bite like when they're feverishly posting about how shit Newcastle is in that thread, only for the random google ads thing at the top of the page to flash up: "Stag weekends in Newcastle, £85" "Get discounted parking at Newcastle airport" etc etc As it did when I was browsing.

Busted?

Aye Happy Birthday Luke! Jesus remember you being about 17 or 18 when you signed up on here and now you're a few years qualified doctor.

Don't drink them all at once please.

3420? How big's your avenue?

Manchester tbh. It's about 30 mile up the road.

But still they come

We banned ourselves from going to make sure stuff like the above never happened. One of them for me though as to be in 2006. We had boro away on the Sunday, and we had gone out on the piss in the town (our town) on the Friday night. I was absolutely ruined and had been drinking vodka red bull all night, probably up there with some of the worst states I've been in. On the way for the taxi a couple of us had seperated from the rest of the lads. We were walking up past Monument when I heard someone singing boro; well, anti-Newcastle songs. Red rag to a bull. I looked down Grainger Street and there were a couple of lads walking back down towards Central. I went down the street after them shouting horrendous Middlesborough related obscenities and waving my arms about like a derranged chimp. One of the lads was behind me telling me to pack it in. As I approached, one of them stopped singing and turned round. I remember thinking 'fuck me, he's a big bastard' and started to slow down a bit. I tried to walk past him to get at his skinny mate who was making the most noise, but he blocked me off and advised me to seek an alternative route. I questioned his sexual persuasions and shoved him out of the way, but before I could get to his mate, he'd grabbed me and pulled me backwards. He span me round, picked me up and threw me against some shop shutters. He then proceeded to go akka on my face with his fists. I was fucking arseholed and had absolutely no chance of fighting back. The lad I was with managed to kick him off me and we got up and walked away, but I was still giving it the big one. It was at this juncture that my mate lost his temper and punched me in the face. That sobered me up a bit. I attended the game on the Sunday with a fat lip and a sore nose, feeling like a proper bastard. We won 2-1 though, so I was victorious really. Who lamped you, Luke? Please tell me it was Norman?!

Kindly never usher me unknowingly into a Rob W thread ever again.

Psyche!

It says you joined in Feb 2010. Who did you used to post as?

Never posted on N-O so wouldn't know how he came across on there, don't know owt about the place tbh.

What did you not like about him? He came across as a sound kid I think, was one of the best posters on N-O. He hated Vic too. He was too bright for Manc there was a certain frission and jealousy at work. He was a dick if thats what you mean.

Chicquitos is sposed to be grim but I've never been like. Do yous have Panama Hatty's? Different class Mexican and top margheritas to boot. Think it's expanding into a chain so look out for it if it arrives up there. It's untold.

Patrokles was a right wanker fwiw.
