Ian McEwan - Amsterdam Decent enough, quite a short read and quite easy to get into but got slightly tiresome towards the end. Also bought... Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward - All The Presidents Men Harry Pearson - The Far Corner David Peace - The Damned United I want to get reading but I bought them for my hols so i'm trying to hold back

Opened officially yesterday, didn't it?

And i'm sure that's exactly how all the mackems will see it It is becoming more amusing reading the SMB with every day! It must be good for Keane to know that should he ever fancy experimenting with his sexuality, that there are 20,000+ blokes absolutely gagging to be nailed by him! Some of the stuff they come out with about him is priceless! It is laughable, like. Okay, if he was making Fergusonesque decisions at every turn but he's not. Every little thing he does gets praised to high heaven like he's just pulled off the transfer coup of the century. One minute they're going on about how £7million for Nugent is fair enough in todays transfer climate, next thing they're saying it's too much

So basically the facts were that they were told by his agent he was more interested in joining Pompy and they "stepped aside" to avoid any embarrasment? 'Nice one, Keeeeeeano' indeed

I think that by the time Ashley completes his takeover (July 18th) he'll have started to pump some serious money in.

Simple concept, give a rating/write a few lines about as many people as you want/can be arsed to in this list. .../\......\o/... 2bias @yourservice aimaad AgentFox Alan Shearer is God Albert Kirkey alex Ally alreetlike Andrew Flintoff Asprilla's foreskin Baggio Barney Bazooka_From_Viduka Bizza BlueStar bobbyshinton Bombadil Bridget Brock Manson canofbeans catmag chester mag ChezGiven chip2388 ChocChip Craig DanTheMan daveytait176 David Kelly Definitely Maybe Django Reinhardt donaldstott Dr Kenneth Noisewater duckerDavies duffdowns emperor_k ewerk Fancy Dan lecturer Fat Boy FCUM Footsoldier Fop GafferTape Gejon Gemmill Geordie Boyo GeordieMessiah GeordieShandy Geordiesned Glasgow Mag Glen gram Greg Happy Face Hatful Of Hollow hggcraig Holden McGroin Howaythelads Howaythetoon Hughesie I'm on Speed indigo IrishMag Isegrim J69 JaMoUsE janu JawD Jimbo JJ Jonny2J k4t0 Kevin Carr's Gloves khay kitty-sniper Lazarus LeazesMag Li3nZ Lou/Welshdragon luckyluke luckypierre Mad-on-the-rocks Magma Mags manc-mag Mark Matt MattM4 Matty medina Meenzer menace13 Missed Sticks MrBass newcastlebroon NJS Nobby Noelie nufc4ever ObaGol Optimistic Nut paddy Papa Lazaru Parky Patrokles Peasepud Pilchard Chops Radgina rebellious Renton rikko Rob_W robchester sammynb Scottish Mag Shearergol Sicklee Sausage Roll Sima Skol smoggeordie Smooth Operator smudger snakehips Southern Geordie spongebob_toonpants Steve stevieintoon sweetleftpeg Swindon Mag T-Keith Taylor27 The Fish The Mighty Hog TheInspiration themags Thompson Tom_NUFC Toonpack Toonraider Toplass-101 TOPTOON Ugly Mackems Wacky Jnr walkinthedog Walliver wellsy Woodgate27 WubbleUC Wullie wykikitoon Zathras zico martin A Blue Peter badge for the first person who has the time to do this in full

Owen hasn't came out and said he wants to stay so he wants to leave. Martins has came out and said he wants to stay so obviously he wants to leave too.

You should be able to sign up again if you can read the board. That way you can make him cry this evening and keep me entertained

The backpeddling on the SMB is genius "Well, to be honest, I'm not that bothered. Watching him in the Under 21s, I thought he was very ordinary and didn't impress much. Leroy Lita DID impress though and I'd like to see us go for him." "Fucking Hallelujah. The Guy obviously doesnt have his heart in playing for us as he is more concerned that Everton havent shown an interest yet. If you don't wanna play for the club, quite simply FUCK OFF" "Good news, I think it shows were not going to let ourselves be fucked about. We have obviously got our eye on other targets. £7mil is a lot for him, I was always of the opinion that amount of money can buy you better." "Well done Roy Keane! That is a fantastic decision which I wholeheartedly endorse. The little shite has fucked about with the wrong man." http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=243749 Bugger me

I think Roeder and Shepherd based their transfer policy around 'The later we wait, the cheaper they'll be' which simply wasn't the case. Allardyce is already head and shoulders above Rodders.

Radio rental. I'm not used to this 'planning' lark.

I use Firefox and it's never happened for me. Format the fucker

If I can just cut inbetween Laurel and Hardie and share my two penneth... I don't mind smoking in general and I don't mind smokers but I do mind having to get lungfuls of the stuff whenever I want to have a social life. It will also be nice to wake up after a night out and not smell like an ashtray. Saying that, I do think that the Government have went too far. For example, private members clubs should be exempt and the fact that smoking shelters are no longer up to standard for smokers is daft. They're the only ones going in, they should be allowed as much cover as they want.

Has P Diddy been lynched for his fucking cringeworthy dedication to Diana all the way through Missing You? "Put yo' hands up fo' Diana, ya'll" "Make some noise fo' Diana" "Clap yo' hands if you love Diana" "Put yo' hands together fo' Diana"

That Craig Hope talks some hosshite, like

Vic? Fucking hope not

They're decent, nothing more, nothing less

eh ? Perhaps?

Spot on. People have to understand that money doesn't equal the best players, as the Mackem's are finding out now. If you've got no Europe, no real chance of winning a trophy in the next season or two then no one really big will want to join. Chelsea was a freak takeover, they threw money about like nobodies business.

Aye and the Skunkers ITK reckons we are def in talks with Gudjohnson and Beye is giving us an answer on Monday. How realible is Skunkers ITK? So far he has predicted and got right Sibierski, Rossi, Roeders sacking/resignation and Allardyce's appointment (said this would happen after the Citeh game), Barton, Viduka and Rozehnal. 100% record. Who is Skunker? It's a messageboard which the aforementioned source posts on http://www.skunkers.net/Reunited/index.php?

You rate Ameobi yet you're 'not overly pleased' with the prospect of Edmilson and Eidur? Never really rated Eidur as high as others do and feel he hasn't been the same since he missed that critical chance against Liverpool in the champs league semi in 05. But Sam knows his game well and he could definately do a job for us. I just feel that last season we really lacked physical presence and fitness so I'm just looking forward to the big african and african-french guys to come and shake up the squad. P.S. Shola will impress Sam out in Austria and will then prove all you haters wrong next season! I can understand why some people like and stand up for Shola but if you rate him higher than Gudjohnsen you're quite clearly a fucking nutter

Next door to a Tiger Tiger? If it's anything like the one up here I wish it had went off.

I must say this is a fucking weird situation. Still, if Edmilson is half the player he was prior to the operation and we manage to get Eidur i'd be chuffed to fucking bits
