Well it was me who text Gol about the rumour - one of the blokes at work has connections with Arsenal FC and he reckons that Fat Fred has been on the blower enquiring (I can well believe that bit!) They're putting two and two together and making fifteen and claiming that Cole may interested because he's marrying a geordie!

First season that I was going to games so therefore really taking it all on board. Absorbed it all like a sponge and it just stuck! Can remember an obscenely sad amount of that season!

West Ham: 1. Phil Parkes 2. Ray Stewart 3. ? (Not Julian Dicks, before his time) 4. Tony Gale 5. Alvin Martin 6. Alan Devonshire 7. Mark Ward 8. George Parris 9. Frank McAvennie 10. Tony Cottee 11. Alan Dickens 12. Paul Ince

That was the same year but the season before. BTW, I'm having a stab at the following line-up: 1. Martin Thomas 2. John Anderson 3. Kenny Wharton 4. David McCreery 5. Peter Jackson 6. Glenn Roeder 7. Neil McDonald 8. Andy Thomas 9. Paul Goddard 10. Peter Beardsley 11. Paul Stephenson 12. Darren Jackson

Remember that game well! 20 years ago! Fuck off! 164627[/snapback] that the one when goddard got taken off at half time? I remember my dad telling me that Newcastle never win on the telly just before that match, an absolute classic that Ive still got on Betamax somewhere! 164647[/snapback] Aye George Parris split his head open. Also remember it being the game when a certain Paul Ince made his West Ham debut as a substitute!

£2.50 per game sounds reasonable to me

Aged 40 today!!! I remember him making his debut in the 4-0 televised drubbing of West Ham back in 1986. Scored a goal that day too IIRC

Definitely not from me, I give you the rumour that is Ashton & Milner swapping. (And yes, I know you've heard that one too Scott! )

Having a little bit of a wager should indeed keep the interest. Don't let Gemmill anywhere near it though, I've heard all about his book-keeping!

HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? 1) You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming. -- Alan, age 10 2) No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with. Kirsten, age 10 WHAT IS THE RIGHT AGE TO GET MARRIED? 1) Twenty-three is the best age because you know the person FOREVER by then. -- Camille, age 10 2) No age is good to get married at. You got to be a fool to get married. -- Freddie, age 6 (very wise for his age) HOW CAN A STRANGER TELL IF TWO PEOPLE ARE MARRIED? 1) You might have to guess, based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids. -- Derrick, age 8 WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR MAM AND DAD HAVE IN COMMON? 1) Both don't want any more kids. -- Lori, age 8 WHAT DO MOST PEOPLE DO ON A DATE? 1) Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough. -- Lynnette, age 8 (isn't she a treasure) 2) On the first date, they just tell each other lies and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date. -- Martin, age 10 (wise beyond his years) WHAT WOULD YOU DO ON A FIRST DATE THAT WAS TURNING SOUR? 1) I'd run home and play dead. The next day I would call all the newspapers and make sure they wrote about me in all the dead columns. -- Craig, age 9 - WHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE? 1) When they're rich. -- Pam, age 7 2) The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that. -- Curt, age 7 3) The rule goes like this: If you kiss someone, then you should > marry them and have kids with them. It's the right thing to do. -- Howard, age 8 (this one has very good morals) IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED? 1) It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone to clean up after them. -- Mike Schaffer, age 4 (bless you child) HOW WOULD THE WORLD BE DIFFERENT IF PEOPLE DIDN'T GET MARRIED? 1) There sure would be a lot of kids to explain, wouldn't there? -- Kelvin, age 8 And the winner is........ HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK? 1) Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a truck. -- Ricky, age 10

Anyway, I've heard we're signing Defoe, anyone else heard this? 164597[/snapback] Now where've you heard that chestnut from?

Count me in

Howay man Luke, it's CraiGol!! 164256[/snapback] Suppose I should renew the domain name agreement btw 164584[/snapback] Was it only a 12 monther? 164586[/snapback] Nah, just wanted to get you worried 164591[/snapback] I was trying to work out the logistics of how it could have expired yet we're still using it..

Not in this forum you don't!

Craig's like the Emperor off Star Wars tbh. Electricity flows from his fingertips. FACT! 164575[/snapback] Aye.....it's a bastard when you're having a piss mind! 164578[/snapback] Don't really want to ask this, but... Why is it a bastard when Gemmill is having a piss? 164581[/snapback]

Happy birthday for yesterday SG

*sigh* Then you wonder why people think you're a twat....

Fucking hell, we sign one winger from Chelsea but he's still digging his claws in about SWP. Give it up Anal, it's not happening!

Indeed! The post is still there, just not visible to you. Mods can see it though

It's not deleted!

Even if he had come here, I feel pretty sure it would have been a stop-gap until Manchester United came in for him and he'd have been off to them. Agreed though, I'd love to have seen him play for us....

The Ashton rumour is rife down here as well. Local press is claiming that Ashton wants the move but that Pardew is digging his heels. The sweetner is that Pardew is apparently desperate to sign Milner and may be willing to sacrifice Ashton to get him.

Very good news indeed....
