I don't get this whole campaign to be honest... I mean I'm in the position whereby I'm estranged from my kids' mother yet I've always made sure that I'm such a bloody good Dad to them that she knows damned well that it's in their best interests to see plenty of me. How the fuck they think dressing in a superhero costume and scaling famous landmarks is going to make a judge think "you know what, this bloke really should have more access to his kids" is totally beyond me. If anything, it's giving them more reason NOT to give them rights... They're anti-feminists tbh - moaning that society is not giving them equality when in reality their actions are doing everything to prove they don't deserve it. They need to prove themselves by being a good father because that and ONLY THAT is credible evidence that they should get what they're campaigning for. Their point is being lost in amongst their own stupidity.

It happened in World Cup 1990, Group F. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Cup_1990 Both teams qualified in the end though, would have been a horrendous way to go out! Yep, I was going to bring this one up.. Seem to remember us going into that last game against Egypt knowing that if we'd come out of it drawing 1-1 then all 4 teams in the group would have been absolutely equal and it'd have gone down to drawing lots. Not worth imagining what it'd have been like if the Egyptians had managed a last minute equaliser...

how the fuck can they get away with the keeper kit being so similar to the outfield players? I thought it had to be a considerable contrast?

Was having a browse through the videos on the BBC Sport website and there's one on there of Mark Bright and Gavin Peacock going to some football exhibition in Vienna. They home in on the fact that some of their fellow BBC pundits are featured on records of 'cup final songs' and start taking the piss. First one they come across is Gordon Strachan and Peacock quips in about how life sized he looks. Fuck that, what the hell are those two to the right of Bryan Robson up to?? Hands on each others knees? Source: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/e...008/7457123.stm

Still seemed like a class act in this tournament IMO. Take it he was absolute dogshite at Rangers then Ritchie?

Tell you has really impressed me at these championships... Libor Sionko of the Czech Republic. If we were to sell Milner to Liverpool, this is the kind of player I'd love to see here in his place... actually stuff that, I'd love to see him here regardless of what happens to Milner

coool lets rename Germany Adolfland then stop twisting my point you pedantic fucker...

news to me that !!! Malcolm Dix is the bloke who campaigned for years to get rid of the Mckeag and seymour clan, not suggesting he should have a stand named after him, but he deserves a lot of credit. He didn't have the clout or the contacts though and recruited Sir John into his camp. To be honest, I know that SJH did well for the club, but I think he was only in it for the money, got lucky, and I think he was a complete bullshitter as well. Without a shadow of a doubt... you could tell that after the Swindon home game when Keegan walked out - he was totally at a loss and bricking it...

Arsenal (a) third game in?? Well at least that's both of those games out of the way by September. We all know what'll happen though, we'll lose and we'll be towards the bottom 3 (if not in it!) and the press will be calling for Keegan's head... Pathetic but all too predictable though

silly or not, rules are rules and we can do without the shitty letter from the EPL... Post them and your post WILL be deleted!

No I wouldn't.. and at the time I felt it wasn't right. Out of interest, wasn't the East Stand named after one of the Freddys around the same time? Can't remember which one for the life of me. Whilst I agree with you about what Seymour Snr and McKeag did, i also believe that if they hadn't left the club in the state they had, there would have been the opportunity for SJH and Keegan to come along and do what they did. Everything happens for a reason...

I know it's miniscule by comparison, but Joe Harvey had the first restaurant in the Milburn stand named after him. Shearer has obviously got the bar named after him and of course Milburn has the main stand named in his honour. As for who else is deserving of it. Well what about Hughie Gallagher or Stan Seymour (i'm talking Snr, not Jnr before you start having kittens LM ) As for what was on the roof of the Gallowgate, nothing as far as I can recall. The crest was on the Leazes End and of course 'Newcastle United' has been on the roof of the East Stand since the mid 90s. The Gallowgate was always blank as far as I can recall (although I can't say for certain as that's the stand I used to be in! )

Trust me HF you had to be there to believe it... every 3 months the threads had to be purged and we started all over again

Shite how you can't read the topics on it. Though at the time it shows the mods as: Phillip Craig, JawD, alreetlike, Scottish Mag, SweMatt, Blaydon, JJ (BordersMag) It was up and running long before that, I think I only became a mod around the time of the "roasting" scandal to help out with any libellous posts. Going by the user listing asteroidblitz has posted, I'm guessing it was born on 16 July 2002 seeing as that's Philip Craig's sign up date. Means it had only been in existance for 3 years when we started this place up in July 2005.. So this place has nearly been around longer! Odd, the old place seems like it had been around a lot longer than that... And this place was supposed to quickly die a death remember... I think it started before that, but the date seen there was actually after a database fook up. I was def a member for a right good while before I was even a mod. Database fuck up? In the Linuxdriven days?? Surely you jest?

I thought the club badge was on the Leazes end when it was lower. Never seen it on the Gallowgate End after the redevelopment. Spot on Sima.... doesn't justify the Sports Direct badge in any way though - it should be the club badge up there.

The fucking Shitalians deserve to go home for their diving antics at the end of today's match - Luca Toni is a class player so why's he feel the need to carry on like he did. Worthy world champions? Fuck right off!

I actually think Tom's trying to be funny but being really shit about it....

Holland are playing some awesome football at the moment and the only team holding a candle to them IMO is the Portuguese. Should be those two in the final IMO. Italy had the possession but not the finishing. Romania were good for the win IMO. I'm praying for a Romanian victory int eh next game. Both World Cup finalists out in the first round - yes please.

Their's are of the 'shell' variety....

Bumpity bump!

Because they don't take refunds unless it's faulty, as it's been personalised with the number 9 I'm sure trading standards would like to hear that a refund won't be given on a product you hadn't seen at first hand when you paid for it As for the personalisation thing: 1. It's not like putting a no.9 on the back of it will 'personalise' it 2. Surely they'll be able to flog it like that 3. I thought TOFFS actually sold them with the number already on it?

WTF is the 'UEFA Sight'?

Talk about hedging his fucking bets.... A Premiership club DID want him... has he forgotten Stoke got promoted?

If it arrived this morning, why not just send it back and recoup your full £40 rather than accepting a tenner less from someone on here?
