    Supposedly on the verge of national bankruptcy. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/finance...p-in-smoke.html
  3. What was wrong with something like: "The Newcastle United Supporters Club today notes the departure of Vice President (Player Recruitment) Tony Jimenez from NUFC and has no further comment to make".
  4. Point 1: You state the reasons why Spurs could go down but not why you would want them to go down. What is it you have against Spurs Stevie? I suspect it may be the fact you see our fanbase as a threat. Point 2: "They play the best football this country has ever seen" - no they dont. They dont even play the best football in this country at the moment. If they did they would have beaten Fulham, Sunderland and Hull. If you get excited by a team, well drilled in passing stroking the ball about then fine but I personally prefer goals and winning football. On that score Chelsea are ahead. Point 1: I hate Tottenham. Who the fuck are they? People like you are the reason they're hated. Never had a gate over 40,000 for over 20 years, been in the bottom half more than the top since then, never been in the top 4 in that time, never had a good European run, largely failed to sell out their stadium over that time, have been sponsored by PONY, have employed David Pleat as their manager, have a limited fanbase......yet STILL look people in the eyes and say "we're a big claaab mite". None entity nothingness of a club, who's fans need bringing down a peg or ten. I don't think speaking on a personal note, I've ever met more wankers from one club neither, even people I work with now, one yid has a bet on with me that Man Utd won't come in the top 4 this season. What a mug. Mugs and wanks sum them up. Point 2: At times over the last four years Arsenal have played slick football consistently the likes of which have not been seen in this country. Point 1: SO you are saying we have more detestable fans than the perpetual victims? I think not. Point 2: spurs invented that style of football. Goons are just borrowing it. A man of your years must remember George grahams goons, lump it long, one nil to the @rsenal? Temporary thing. ?
  5. I got all my gear from sevenoaks - not sure if its still there though. Have a look at the speakers forum here http://www.avforums.com/forums/speakers/
  6. i think what weve got to remember is that its still very early days and that theres bound to be a few teething problems until things start to settle down. its gonna take a while to sort things out given the size of the task so im not gonna be too hard on them just yet.
  7. Cant be that difficult to find right said fred album covers?
  8. ive been using rapget for a while but its stoped working for me with rapidshare. though that maybe because im now using 64bit vista ultimate.
  9. http://jdownloader.org/home Ive started using this great little program to download stuff from rapidshare - it can also download from other upload sits too. i mustve downloaded about 10 gig over 3 days using it and theres none of the waiting for download limits or entering captcha text stuff. just select and copy the rapidshare link and you can set jdownloader to auomatically pick up the link from the clipboard and start downloading. it will even extract files from .rars and join them up!
  10. Presactly. They're being a little premature coming out with the statements on our behalf. They haven't asked what our opinion is yet. thats the point i made earlier when i seemed to be the only dissenting voice
  11. Everyone familiar with this board will know that we love to disagree with pretty much everything here. However - everyone wants a supporters club. Everyone agrees that its a great idea. (even me despite my concerns about the £10 fee). These initial stages are crucial as to how future members will perceive the supporters club - not to mention the press and the football club itself so maybe the board of the club should slow down a bit and concentrate on setting up the voting system and attracting members.
  12. lots of people are pissed off at this cos its traditionally been the national guard who stay at home and the army who go abroad. but as the national gurad are fighting the taleban.........
  13. 1. Yes, one of the committee is looking into the pro's and cons, my understanding of it though is that SD is for the setting up of trusts ie with a view to purchasing at least a slice of the club. Thats not something thats currently on the agenda for us, its always a possibility but I think SD insist on it being the aim of your association if you want to be part of them. More will be known next week however. 2. It is 'not for profit' and as I said in an earlier post all relevant auditing etc will be carried out, I couldnt honestly say who will be doing those audits as I dont think theyve been looked at yet. But it will all be done and done properly. 3. Im not sure on the honourary president but, we are arranging honourary memberships though. Just to confirm though are you saying you'd trust it more if we 'installed some ex player as a pretend boss'? no - i just though it might be a good idea in general. doesnt have to be an ex player - i just thought a supporters club with an honourary president might sound a bit more 'official' (for want of a better word) and might have a bit more weight behind it.
  14. This is not a list of demands or anything - just a few thoughts and ideas first of all - have you guys heard of supporters direct? http://www.supporters-direct.org/publications/ - some of the info there could be relevant. the club has to be 'not for profit' and independantly audited. will the club be audited by an outside firm independant of the board members? what about having an honoury president? maybe a former player with strong ties to the northeast (for example peter beardsley rather than asprilla).
  15. Indeed it is - i just want to make an informed choice. Thats not so outrageous is it?

  17. No doubt this thread will fritter away
