  1. These worthless Yorkshire pudding bastards haven't even been in the game. I didn't think it was too much to ask for them to get a goal but on the evidence of this first hour they can't even manage a shot.
  2. Exactly, knowing what the scousers are like makes it all the more daft. It's a bit of a nothing article as they were trying to sell him anyway. Kind of the reverse of our episode with N'Zogbia.
  3. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate Craig Fagan and his alternatively whimpering and smirking face?
  4. ...it's a game of give and take, how long must I wait (for Danny to get banned), how much more can I take (of his fucking rank patter)...
  5. Good on you Rafa. Let's hope Stoke can rough up that fat slob, if so they may well be in trouble. What I wouldn't give to see Fat Sam's Blackburn circling the drain.
  6. The Arse one is passable, Liverpool's looks good although it doesn't need the red, Man U's and Chelsea's are shocking as I stated before, and the City one looks absolute gash - the shade isn't bad, that's one of my favourite colours, but the white on the top of the sleeves and the blue stripes/panels/wtf are they are awful. Be nice if we heard something on ours.
  7. We live in hope as always but I can't see us getting anything out of this game. If we're still missing Enrique, who absolutely locked Lennon down in the opposite fixture, we could be in for a rough time.
  8. Futurama quote? Spot on though. He's one of the only ones that looks like they care but its obvious he's pretty much past it now. Bible quote you mean?
  9. I really doubt Barton will contribute anything at all this season. He's better than Nolan at least.
  10. I'll give that to Butt. His spirit is so willing but unfortunately the flesh is weak. Unlike these others, I think he actually realises we are in a fight for our lives. When the others are hiding, he steps up to try to create, which unfortunately he isn't very good at. He has a go off the second ball from corners, for example - he almost always sends it way over, as he did on Sat, but at least he is still trying. This is a guy who we were booing not long ago and now seems one of the main sources of drive and leadership in the team. He's come a long way in my eyes and I'll be sad to see his spirit leave the club, if not his ability.
  11. Reading that article above from 2005, it says something like 'we could've offered Ameobi as part of the Luque deal.' ...Missed out on an opportunity I think there
  12. The battle will be won or lost based on our 3 home games imo. Any away points are bonuses. We beat Pompey, Boro and Fulham or we go down. If we beat Pompey and Boro and do get the point at Spurs, which I can see happening if we play a little more like NUFC 2nd half against Stoke rather than 1st half, Fulham won't loom so large any longer, depending on other results. But for sure, anything but a win against Portsmouth will be the signal for true panic. Considering they're the same side we trounced 3-0 away, I have to look at that game as a target we can achieve.
  13. It's just sick how much this sad tiresome wannabe flails around on here looking for validation. Unfortunately he also succeeds in derailing plenty of our threads like this one. Getting back to what's great about Newcastle United: Seeing SBR in the stand. Going into sport shops in the USA and seeing five Premier League kits: Man U, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal...and NUFC. The belief, every time we seem to be on the up, that somehow this time we're going to get it right.
  14. From http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/europe/7997363.stm If Shearer decides to go back to MOTD (or, you know, turns out to be crap, although I don't think that's going to be the case)...
  15. FYP You're right, 8th favourite cockney team. (big 4,, Charlton, AFC Wimbledon, Dagenham & Redbridge). You forgot Leyton Orient like. At least Spurs have the distinction of being less distasteful than Millwall.
  16. If they go out the UEFA which I'm sure they will on thursday, he probably won't last that long. I think a new poisoned chalice has been born.
  17. Considering the absolute shower of shite that was yet again served up in the first half, point has to count as a decent result. Subs really saved the day, but again it begs the question of why Jonas wasn't starting. Surely Carroll should start next game, no doubt about it. With any luck we'll have S. Taylor back for Spurs and we can forever banish Ryan Taylor from the first team.
  18. Take Nolan off and shoot him, then put Jonas on, Butt and Guthrie in the middle, Duff and Jonas on the wings.
  19. Oh by the way, did I mention that we really needed to sell Faye behind Keegan's back? Did I mention what a great idea ignoring Keegan's advice to buy another left back was, so we could put our best player out of position and watch some piece of shit academy player, playing in his position, give Faye cubic yards of space?
  20. Can't even believe what I'm watching. None of these wasters deserve to wear the shirt.
  21. Draw will do me. Disgraceful dive from Neville over at the SOS. Because Man U are pure class
  22. be handy if we could sneak an extra man on like Why not, we play with 10 every week anyway with Coloccini starting. 1-2 to us. We can do it!
  23. Just visit the East Coast bawan man, you're wasting your time anywhere else. Everything west of Pennsylvania could sink into the ocean tomorrow and I wouldn't bat an eye. Start at NYC (forget Boston, it's a shithole) and work your way down to Florida. Kurdistan isn't a country yet and probably never will be (argument for another thread I know), but you're better off telling people you're from there as they'll have no idea where it (supposedly) is.
