It can't come as any surprise that the store they're looting are Currys, Jessops, JD Sports etc. We live in a nation that is wrapped up in consumerism. You can't turn anywhere without being battered by aspirational messages - buy this, shop there, wear that etc. No matter how misplaced the anger and pointless the looting knicking a pair of Nike Airs is their political statement. Listen to them when they're interviewed - hardly the most eloquent people in the world but when they're not talking about "fuckin' da feds, innit" there does seem to be a degree of understanding of both the political and social implications of what has happened and what's to come. The number of people claiming benefits because they're out for an easy ride is pretty minimal, yet as this thread shows the scrounger stereotype pervades any discussion about those on the dole or disability. No wonder there's disenfranchisement amongst certain areas of society when they're constantly told that the 'career path' they're being forced down due to circumstances outside their control makes them second class citizens. It doesn't help that this message is being passed down by politicians who have stole more cash from the country than they have, the fans being flamed by the journalists who have wronged more people than they have and doors are being slammed shut in their faces thanks to the greediness of the bankers who are still being treated like the goose that laid the golden egg. In school we remind kids that they're not quite good enough, so even if they do get out they're never going to have made it - don't get the grades and you're just another waster, get the grades and it's because the exams were easy. Go to university (if you can afford it) and unless you study a 'proper' subject you're derided for being a time waster. You're not meant to be learning, you're meant to be preparing yourself for the world of work. I mean who wants to learn in this day and age? Get out and start sweeping the streets. The only university you need to go to is the University of Life. It may all seem pretty trivial, but piled one on top of another I can see why "da yoot" are fucked off. And before anyone starts this isn't a justification, merely an attempt to understand why this has happened.

As Stevie said a while back, potentially the first player to get booed at his own testimonial. Isnt be becoming a bit of cult figure now? Or is that just me? Not just you Painfully average but I can't help but like the bloke. Gets far too much abuse from the stands.

Shut up you dickhead. It's a genuine question. You're sterotyping them as lazy cunts who contribute fuck all to society. So, a yes or no. I said not all blacks are like this but in South London you need to spend time there to experience what it's like. Of course not all blacks are bad people the same as not all white people are. I've asked a question regarding the ethnicity of these rioters, can you answer it, ignore it, or continue to deliberately misconstrue it? I don't think that anyone will deny that the majority of people involved in the riots were black, however, it is not an exclusively black problem. What needs to be analysed here are the factors that led to the rioting in these specific areas. The riots were caused by circumstance rather than race. Unless you're saying that blacks are predisposed to violence and theft? They would be if they weren't so bloody lazy

As a resident I can assure you that's nowt out of the ordinary for Washington.

Christ on a vespa, are we really dividing this down racial lines? You just need to glance at the news coverage to see that it's not just black or white or asian kids acting the cunt. It's like It's a Small World on heroin. It's 80% black people in London and Birmingham. Decorate how you will but that is a fact. I implore you to spend a few months living in South London, I've probably lived two years of my life when you add it all up in those area's and the majority of black people there are lazy fuckin cunts. I'm not saying ALL black people are because they're not, but lets see if your attitude towards this situation and them changes. Very easy to hypothesise without first hand experience of these people. South London and North London has the worst people on these islands, and Sammy's quality story, goes in some way to explaining why. See the African blacks in London, they hate Afro Caribbean blacks, because they're fuck all like them, and they see the yardie types as getting blacks a bad name. The black London sub-culture which exists now is one of the worst aspects of immigration in my view. You even have fucking white kids pretending to be black, talking like they're black, like I say it's alright sat in South Shields, nodding your head at racial equality people on newsnight talking shite, but when you've been in the front line, and I have, it will educate you somewhat. You're trivilising the entire event by turning it into a ridiculous debate about race when it's kids acting like twats. Your last post just lost you any credibility you had left. You're a half step away from starting on a rant about how this would never have happened if the BNP were in power. You're a good lad Stevie, but you don't half talk some shite at times like this

I worry this will get overlooked as the general public get more and more fed up with the riots. I'm all for harsh, short term solutions so long as we can get round to addressing why the 'yoof' have decided to go feral on us all of a sudden.

I had it out with him over Twitter about that shite. I basically decided he was a joke when he claimed that Shepherd is still widely loved on Tyneside.

Well this is fucking shite.

Who gave this fuckwit a login?

I think maybe they aren't telling him what to say, just he's shit scared of upsetting them. He's probably been told to rein it in after Neil Farringdon got the Sunday Sun banned.

I've seen him contradict himself in the same issue of the Ronny before.

He's got more skill in his foreskin than Routledge has ever had in his whole body. What I like about him is he never panics when he's crowded, also at 19 he's won a title medal at Bordeaux winning the French league. So did David Bellion. Hardly the mark of a class player.

He's wank. Fast, but wank. It would've made more sense to keep Routledge if we go for Obertan.

I recall reading on another website that Pardew was negotiating his contract with the club while Hughton was still in his job. I'm not going into the details but it was a very credible source. Pardew subsequently said the first he heard about the job was when Hughton was sacked and the club got in touch. Blatantly an absolute lie and proof, if any were needed, that the man has the morals of an alleycat, the heart of a weasel, and the truthfulness of Reginald Pryor. Golfmag on N-O You always hear of these tales after the event, but Golfmag was telling us weeks if not months before Hughton was sacked that Pardew was incoming.

NUFC have displayed all the signs of a club on the brink of meltdown this summer, and Pardew is going to get slaughtered if it all falls apart on the pitch. When ( not if) this happens , I can't wait to hear the spin from our Great Leaders, as to how Pardew is still the man to take us to " the next level". The man's a cunt, said so from day 1 and nowt has changed my mind. Totally agree. I'll never forgive him for being a sly cunt. I exclusively revealed in October he'd be taking over before the West Ham game, we won three in a row and they had to put it on hold, so he'll have been sat there watching us beat the mackems 5-1 knowing Hughton's days were numbered. Fair enough it's a job for him still a cunts trick. Never liked him, will never warm to him no matter how many PR courses he goes on to make himself come across well in press conferences. Coloccini needs to keep his missis away from club functions too that's aal I can say. Got more time for him than the other two buffoons though. Not his strong point it seems. http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport...rticle19476.ece

Barton has been silent today. Worrying. Maybe Derek and Mike have kidnapped him?

That KTD is a weapon of epic proportions tbf.

http://www.skysports.com/story/0,,11678_7079900,00.html This fucking club.

According to the Ronny we're after Obertan

And what would you have done otherwise? Said nothing? Congratulated him on being an average manager? Bin off kicking the fuck out of him, one swift headbutt to the nose will do the job, and teach the fucker to stand up for himself. At this point I'd have only gobbed at him.

If we are genuinely after Rob Green I may just kick the fuck out of Pardew if I bump into him down the shops. He has little say on what goes on but rather than put all his weight behind signing a decent player in a position we lack depth when asked who he wants to sign he gives the name of a shit, old goalkeeper. Arsehole.

16/07/2011 18/07/2011 25/07/2011 02/08/2011 By all means report what the club have said, but at least try and address the glaring contradictions.

It looks like he's doing that now. In the last accounts there was a footnote saying that the part of the loan was repayable in August 2010, then another part a year later with the rest repayable 'on demand'.
