Which footballer do you have a man crush on?
spongebob toonpants replied to Happy Face's topic in Newcastle Forum
Ive just spent far too long looking for the Ginola pic in the 95 away kit pouting at the camera -
I couldn't manage to understand that Probably because its gibberish. Roeder always seems to get teams relegated his second season in charge. I was hoping Norwich would be different - sadly not
-
I had hoped he could have managed to prove the cant manage a second season theory wrong, alas no.

spongebob toonpants replied to bobbyshinton's topic in Newcastle Forum
From newcastle online "Keith Barrett here joining in with your forum. I am one of the 'thick' blokes with the 'Cockney Mafia out' banner. I do not think I represent anyone but myself, I am not a member of NUSC, and I do not wish to be on the telly, despite numerous requests since my mate Graham Robson and I made the giant 'Howay The Lads' flag some years ago.That giant flag took a lot of time, money and effort. The 'Cockney Mafia Out' banner was bought by myself and has been held aloft at various games by me, my 79 year old Dad, my friends Paul Fenning and Bernie Kane. You will notice there are no nicknames here as used by writers on this forum, that's who we are. I first went to St.James's Park in 1962, Plymouth Argyle at home 0-0, I follow my team home and away and have only missed three games in the last seventeen years, these were friendlies. I ran Toon Travel for fifeteen and a half years, providing coaches, trains or planes to every game in that time at a cheaper cost than the club, if they even bothered to put anything on. Whilst running Toon Travel I was also trying to run my haulage business which eventually failed, due somewhat to my travel commitments. My marriage to my southern born wife has also failed, this was down totally to my commitment to Newcastle United and not her. Thats a bit of background about me. The 'Cockney Mafia Out' banner. I fully appreciate that not every Newcastle United fan shares the same view as me, the banner is not aimed at Cockney's in general, I have many Cockney friends, I also fully appreciate that Mike Ashley and Dennis Wise were not born within the sound of Bow bells so they are not 'true' cockneys, ( I could not afford to have Buckinghamshire and Kensington put on the banner, it cost me a hundred pound as it is). I had it made to express my feelings about the people who run our club. I don't want them there, I don't trust them, I think they have shown there true colours, I think they are con men. Dennis Wise was a horrible obnoxious player on the pitch, that everbody hated, he has no affinity with Newcastle United whatsoever.. Mike Ashley has shown contempt for the fans and presumably thinks he can worm his way back into our hearts, he was never in my heart, I do not remember seeing him on the terraces at Plymouth, Shrewsbury or Whrexham supporting the team, he, in my opinion is a con man. Now, I know I have left myself wide open to critisism that previous or future owners have not or will not stand on the terraces, but, I have, Newcastle United have been a major part of my life for forty odd years, I love Newcastle United and the fans, we are adifferent people to anybody else in the country, or used to be at least. I don't want someone who does not understand what Newcastle United means to its supporters dictaing to the fans. He had a choice a while ago, Kevin Keegan, who has his faults, or Dennis Wise, Keegan the man who brought the best football to Newcastle United seen in living memory, when left to his own devices, or Wise, a man with no Newcastle United connection at all. The majority wanted Keegan, he chose Wise. He alienated himself.I don't want him in charge. I am only a fan like everyone else, but, that is my opinion. Now, if people have a different opinion, fine, it is a free world, sort of, express it, go out and buy banners with' I love Mike Ashley' or 'Cockneys are great' put whatever you want on. You be you and I will be me. Yesterday at Hull. People seem interested as to what happened regarding the banner at Hull yesterday, I will put forward my point of view. At half time, when the players were not on the pitch, obviously, my friend Bernie Kane and I held aloft the banner, some bloke came down and started abusing Bernie, we had words, I said I understood that he had a different opinion but would he leave my banner alone, I shook hands with him, I hope this was captured on cctv as were later events, and I also said as I have said above if he feels so strongly about Ashley, go and get his own banner, this seemed to confuse him. At the end of the game me and Bernie, and Jordon from the Ultras young'uns held up the banner again, the arsewipe appeared again and shouted abuse at me, various things, one of them being 'Barrett, You are a cocksucker', now I do not go around verbally abusing other people and at the age of 52 I do not expect to be abused in that manner, I also defy any man not to snap when subjected to abuse, some have shorter fuses than others, I snapped, I threw three punches at him, I know it was three because the police showed me on video afterwards, not very good punches as I only scuffed his chin with the first one, mind you he was about 6ft 4ins and standing on the step above me, I must improve my technique. Thats what happened. According to the law I should not have done it, in my book he deserved it. I was arrested and charged while he walks away scot free. That's life. I am now banned from the West Ham game next week and face a far longer ban if the Police have there way and I am found guilty later in the month. I am sure this will greatly please some of your members. I have posted on here to explain the banner to people that do not know me very well, 'Barrett is a tool' I believe is one of the comments posted, very constructive, and to defend myself from comments like the previous. Everything I have done regarding the fans of Newcastle United has been done with a good heart, the travel, the flags, the bands, (Mungo Jerry, Happy Cats) the daft records we made for the cup finals, everything. I love Newcastle United! Thank you for your time. Regards, Keith Barrett Support the Toon, it's your Duty ! I" -
Just what the Premiership needs,hate filled violent throwbacks filled with a belief in their divine right to success that puts Liverpool to shame, and an even bigger delusional opinion of their own importance than we have. Add to that the ridiculous bigotted sectarian bullshit that goes with it Why anybody would think that is anywhere near a good idea I dont know

What exactly has JFK done wrong?
spongebob toonpants replied to bobbyshinton's topic in Newcastle Forum
Tactics selection etc I have been pleasantly surprised. He seems to have learned from his mistakes, and appears to have got the team to pla for him. I think he is a pretty good judge of how good our players are and his selection of Bassong ahead of Taylor and and anyone ahead of Xisco show a bit of balls and good sense. Press/ waffle etc I think he is doing his best to be positive, and trying to influence the transfer policy the best he can. I think he has increasingly realised how little actual influence he has on what is happening and is hoping that he doesnt get stiched up in the transfer window. He admitted he was desperate for a job, and that no one else would take it. I dont think he is a fool, even if his situation puts him in a position where he sounds like one. I think he gets fed a lot of misinformation, and as he is the only one who talks to the press he is under constant pressure to answer questions about the situation. To be fair he has probably done a good enough job here to get himself another job somewhere else already, but he obviously thinks we are big enough club to put up with the shit for the moment. It will be very interesting to see how he reacts to the transfer window if it goes as badly as I fear -
If ashley had come in and told us that had to balance the books by selling players but we have a long term plan and it is ......... everybody would've got on board. The reason its such a shambles is nobody has a clue what they are doing or why

Barry Ferguson on Kinnear's wishlist
spongebob toonpants replied to Sonatine's topic in Newcastle Forum
fuck off you dreary cunt -
The bottom line is we no longer have an owner who has desire to be a "big club" Freddie for all his faults was at least ambitious, and when he talked the talk, though at times it could be excruciating, at leaast he saw us as one of the big boys. No matter what happens over the next few weeks our era of trying to challenge at the top level are over, the days of attracting true top players are over, and the days of being a couple of decent signings from being a great team are over. The best we can hope for is to stabilise as a mediocre mid table side, who have the odd good run in the cup and sometimes threatens UEFA place. If that happens Ashley will be laughing, as he trousers a steady stream of cash from selling on players and tv/internet money. I almost hope we go down. At least that would cause the cunt some financial pain

Well spoken Kenneth - nothing warms my heart quite so much as extreme Liverpool hatred

But would things have went that way if he was here? Fucking hell man are you suggesting it all turned to shit in the couple of weeks between Mort leaving and KK quitting? Mort seemed to understand how the roles of Keegan Wise Jiminez et al should operate, and be able to manage the relationships succsesfully. LLambias otoh seems to be Wises mate and completely undermoned Keegans position Doesnt seem a laughable opinion to me

One of our lesbians is missing!!
spongebob toonpants replied to spongebob toonpants's topic in General Chat
Panic over, she fitted me with a new pair of glasses in Specsavers in Hove this afternoon. She didnt recognize me, needs a new pair herself obviously. I said "quite the dramatic departure" She looked really confused - did a superb comedy double take - then gibbered on a bit while blushing furiously. Nee discount though -
Assistant Manager Graham Fenton - they can go fuck themselves as far as Im concerned
