Speaking of preferring it when he said nothing: from http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/t...ted/7907908.stm Nothing we didn't expect.

Smith, Martins, Jonas, Lovenkrands all invisible. Bassong and Enrique were immense, Butt too, whisper it quietly but even Colloccini failed to be awful today. Shocking tackle and no doubt a red, given that we surely could've done worse but we had two gilt-edged chances to score and failed, and that's all there was to it. Should've been 3 points once Arteta went off.

The grammar in that letter is pretty awful, but I don't know if that's a point against or in favor considering who we're talking about

This game looks mind-blowingly amazing. So far the only reason I've regretted only having a wii.

Only Jimbo's telly will convince me. Bruce under Wise will be just as fucked as anyone else, though, we need to get rid of the poison dwarf first before any progress can be made.

Just call him Nacho Bullardez.

I almost fell out my chair when he called us perpetual. Are we doing to die a death soon too like?

So the Tree has pretty much admitted to being a mackem. No surprise there. I'll ask you though, how would you like it if Dennis Wise was casting his four-foot-seven shadow over your club?

Sven is a good manager. He did shite at City? What a joke, he bought half their class players and they genuinely looked a side on the up. I've no doubt City fans would rather still have him than Hughes who looks increasingly desperate.

You want to halt ST sale decline? Here's a clue. Sack that worthless Wise, scrap this idiotic "continental" system, get a decent manager in and give him some decent money. We're not asking for the moon here FFS.

Apparently Nevada Smith's in New York is crawling with toon fans when our games are on. Is that right? Good tip then, I'll have to have a look in myself one of these days.

Can Jesus microwave a burrito so hot that even he can't pick it up?

"Many fans believe you are destroying NUFC. Discuss." Great question! "What are the incentives to coming back in August?" is a really good one as well.

Rather have Kinnear. If he goes, Fat Mike had better be looking for a proper appointment.

Mecca is a dangerous place because the damn Saudis, who seem to believe they are the divinely appointed guardians of Islam when really the rest of us wish they would shrivel up and die, refuse to invest properly in the holy sites. They think getting professional people in who actually know what they're doing, who happen to also be Western, will somehow corrupt Mecca and Medina. In reality people dying because a bunch of stiff-necked relics who want to keep Islam in the Stone Age are afraid some German architect can do better than they can, I think that's more of a "corruption" of the holy cities. Back on topic, the BNP are pretty scary. Those videos remind me of the Westboro Baptist "Church" in the USA, the way they both are openly hostile towards the news media, but it's ok because they end up saying such stupid shit that they can't help but bring ridicule on them.

I blame the cats I blame NU$C FYP

Go to hell and take this interview with you! It's clear they still think they can just vomit up any bullshit and it'll pacify us. Spending 8 million in the summer? Are you kidding? Put the club up for sale, you fat shite, and then you can piss off back down to London. You'll certainly have no worries about having to come "down" from the Midlands once a week then, you pie-guzzling donkey.

Christ, that Chelsea kit is truly gash. Black and white milan kit will do me, thanks. Anything would be better than this shite tbh.

Dennis for the Blues! on topic, Chelsea =

Classic Newcastle collapse that for once didn't produce the classic Newcastle "defeat from the jaws of victory" result. Get in lads. Lov looked good. Taylor (S.) was shite again even if he did score. Shola was almost a new level of terrible. Totally at fault for their second goal and the revival it sparked. Did anyone else notice how that commentator called Enrique "Luis Enrique" all game long? Bloody hell.

Jesus wept, we buy a right back and we play him on the right wing. This is just a massive bit massive, today. Losing isn't an option. I hope Lovenkrands can show us what he's got today, since we are direly short of pace.

Needed that result, even though it leaves a sour taste to get help from Bellamy and City. Surely Southgate can't have much longer? And Alves is absolute crap as I've said before.

Get well soon Joe. All the best. I also think Hughton is even worse. Imagine Joe needing to leave the job for medical reasons...Calderwood, Wise, Hughton, or Money in the job? God help us.

For whatever it's worth - I'm probably wasting my breath here - but "fatwa" isn't, and I quote, "a death threat under Islamic law." It just means "ruling." Either a case of shit journalism or the protesters themselves not knowing what it means, which is pretty sad if true. Imagine a crowd of 3000 chanting "Legal decision!" or "Verdict!" - it's not really filling me with fear. Seems like the kind of thing a bunch of ignorant little punks would get up to, try to make it look like it's "for a cause" whilst really just wanting to start some conflict of their own.

I think if Bruce had taken over from us after SBR was sacked, we wouldn't be in this shit. I'm not going to sing his praises or anything - he's hardly a world beater - but he's a damn sight better than JFK and I'd have him in a flash. What's the source on this?
