You might be right that Shepherd wanted Bellamy and Robert out. Can't see why though, if he did and he appointed Souness to do it, then intended to sack him to avoid taking the flak himself, then that is as big a disgrace as Souness making up a pack of lies and/or instigating a situation whereby he knew he would get an excuse to turn opinion against Bellamy and find a reason to get rid of him. So they both bring the club down. The difference in Shepherds favour is that when Souness is binned, he will walk away with his contract paid up, whereas Shepherd would see his shares and stock in the club dive. Now why would he do that ?? I'm not saying I disagree, just that I can't think of a reason why, or I would agree.
LM I think without knowing it, you have hit the nail on the head.
The recent takeover rumours seem to be point when the club stopped going in for players with the vigour they had. For a while, a couple of weeks back, we were linked with every player and their dog but once the takeover rumours started we shut up shop.
Now this is only an opinion but I think if the Hall's were looking to sell then the fat man might not of been involved and became quite disturbed by it because he is known for saying he'd like to take the club back into private ownership - an outside takeover would destroy that plan for Freddy.
The other thing is he has quietly been buying up shares for what the last two/three seasons, shares that have been a fraction of their original market value but what happened when the possible takeover announcement happened?
They shot up by 10/15p in a day, which although it isn't much individually over a volume purchase it is considerable.
So maybe and it's just a thought, the fat controller has wound down the clubs spending with the intention of making Newcastle not such a valuable investment.
Push them into definite mid-table obscurity, suffer until the January transfer window, buy up enough shares on the sly to ward off another takeover possibility and then reinvest in players if needed.
I have no facts to back this up and it is just a thought but if you look at the timing it fits.

Fair call LM.
Did my last post in the dvd thread make sense?

Don't give up that easily LM.
The other board needs posters such as yourself that have a valid opinion, otherwise it will all be yes men.

Looks very little different to when we as the old mods were given a sneaky about 2 months ago....
That being said, my avatar over there was one I haven't used for about 2 months as well!
Good luck to them, hope it goes well, but would love to know (and this is no dig at them) what has taken them 4 months to create? As a comparison this place was launched less than 2 days after the idea was first put in my head!
Same here, I thought I was caught in a time warp!

LM - I assume your PC has a USB2 port? If so then you might want to consider this - http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/redire...1&creative=6738
If you do go ahead a purchase it, be a luvvy and use the link above so I gets me some commission!
tks mate, I've also been recommended this

LM all of those you have been recommended will work, as you know.
Just another thing to consider, the dvds you are burning you have two choices
dvd+r
dvd-r
It will depend on your burner but +r is a Dell/Sony format that sony made so not to pay royalties to Phillips but the problem is some players won't play them and vice versa with the -r which are the most common, you will find that early Sony dvd players won't recognise them. With most current dvd players it isn't a problem but I've got a Sony that is 2 years old and it won't play dvd-r format.

Now Dean laughed and smiled at Chris... but I wasn't sure that it was totally genuine...

Depends what your copying from and what hardware you have.
If you're copying from a digital camera then you'd most likely use the firewire port.
If you're copying from an analog source then it would be via the use of s-video or phono ports or even the coaxial input from a WinTV card.
scart lead from video to back of pc [double connection ???] ... would a camcorder cable of this type do ???
As in RCA, the yellow, red and white/black plugs?
LM, I know it is probably a dumb question but does your PC have an analogue video card installed?
Most computers don't have them as standard items when you buy the computer.
If it doesn't then you will need to look at buying one and fitting it.
If you google "analogue video card' you should find some information that can help.
See the biggest problem you have is the conversion of an analogue signal to a digital format.

Like me is more worried about those photos recently taken with a "friend" ending up on an amateur's site and then if one posts in the your picture thread certain other members may recognise you!

Knows I'm having an absolute shocking fucking day involving a tape back-up system that keeps jamming, a gorgeous girl that keeps flirting with me, fucking advertising agencies and clients all rolled into one and I'm not happy about being associated with a faint white figure (that) paints his sleep, whispering to him about a lost childhood in the depths of the Amazonian jungle.
Is possibly going to get his arse kicked!
