The Fish

should take that kind of talk to the Gay Club thread

when we're relegated They're still peddling the "We've still time to buy players" myth. We need those players now, we've needed them for ages and we could have done without a thread bare squad when competing in a tournament which is our ONLY hope of European football this season! They're still peddling the "Souness needs time" well he's had a season, he's had two transfer windows and the only steps we're taking are backwards. We've sold a young(ish) captain of his country who is loyal and a decent squad player, and replaced him with a 29yr old boozing idiot! I thought we were supposed to be "cleaning out the cancer" and yet we're signing rangers rejects and hunting down the biggest ego in football.... the squad is weaker this year than last, we all know the manager is gone by christmas unless he pulls off a miracle! Quite how anyone can still support him is, in my eyes, deluded. I'm not saying those that don't blame him, I mean the ones who actively support the man. Not all of this is Souness' fault, but he's certainly not blameless. Shepherd and Souness have between them put this club in a dangerous position. Also in saying that supporting Souness is madness is not the same as booing him or not supporting the club. I don't see Souness or Shepherd as being anything but employees of the club, they can be criticised and murdered in the media for all I care. When I'm accused of being a bad fan because I don't celebrate them and their decisions I have come to the conclusion that the best thing to do is simply shake my head and talk to more informed fans. Their time will come and go but NUFC will long outlast them. It's a shame that it's going to be another few years of mediochrity, but I honestly believe that this club will win something within the next five years and will win the title within my lifetime. We're too large and affluent to be without silverware..... aren't we?

definitely, shame we don't have "Steve's thread of man love" on here... but the Gay Club thread has to be Gold

....bstd I'll tell yer boss that I caught you using HM Revenue and Customs' time and computers for personal fun... or that you failed your "work station Ergonomics training"

hey guys, whats going on in this thread then?

a photo of me and an ex a cuddly toy (Tigger, not the one off Winnie the Pooh, just a raggedy ass tiger) that's pretty much it.... maybe a jumper I like. I'm guessing my phone, wallet etc. would be on me as I'm never without them in my pocket. of course I'd tell the insurance dudes that my; mini ipod and docking station, my Xbox 360, home cinema station with flat screen plasma tv, my bang olafson stereo, my armani suits and cd/dvd which stretches into the thousands were all destroyed in the blaze.

Recovering from a hangover and vegetating best sundays were up at 12, a cheese sandwiche then off to play football for a couple of hours, back to mams for sunday roast (always the full works) then sitting at a mates house playing games on the playstation or whatever until his mam makes up some tea, then back home bath and bed

....jizzfest... how come a woman breast feeding in public is a beautiful and natural thing, but when I do it it's sick and wrong?

can't....stop me now..... I'm having such a dull time,

never got the whole dirty talk thing... I mean all she can say back is "baaaaaa" am I right or am I right?

Gemmils blind date proved disappointing... just a man in a hat with some rope around his hand.... still... the night was young..

...riding up fat womens ass cracks? I'm not sure I see the relevance.

why do women always go for the bastards? not like I'm complaining, if they didn't I'd be fecking celibate, just curious is all

wow... that's really sage advice and definitely something I'll try on the modern day pseudo-feministos that tramp about the place bollocking you for opening a door then bitching because you didn't pull out her chair. oh aye.. definitely something I'm going to give a whirl

just... genius. thanks boys I have to say the Son of God as well, if only so that when the religous freaks come round I can say "Yes, actually, I have been touched by Jesus and we do have a personal relationship now fuck off unless you want to watch me feltch the kinky bastard" no normal wink smiley really does this thread justice, how about these two?

just got one.... ooooo errrr missus

I wish I could have said what pud said... I'm a little too brash when it comes to this stuff... sorry

didn't mean to patronise alex, I was responding in kind to comment above, which quoted my post, inferring that my view is laughable. also this post is pretty patronising too mate. but back to the issue, I think it's a misunderstanding, when I'm saying don't blame the police I mean the man on the street, not the intangible office he represents. And even then I would not say that this arm of the government gets to decide policy, they're simply there to do th "dirty work" of politicians and policy makers. I agree that it's an absolute travesty that a man has died unnecesarily, but I cannot and will not lay blame at the feetr of the men and women who have to do a thankless job. The petty and jealous attitude that some people ( don't take that the wrong way I don't mean anyone on this board) have for the police is, in my eyes, offensive. I couldn't do their job and am frankly confused by the "damn the man" approach that people take up with the copper. There are some who are bad at their job, who are pedantic or power happy as is the same in every profession. But as with every profession, if you get along with them, they get along with you. I know I'm off on a tangent, but I feel it's relevant, I think that the police get a lot of bad press in this country when they are far far better than their global counterparts, we've all heard horror stories about the way European police deal with Brits on tour, and the American police are the same. Our police have a responsibilty and duty to protect us. They saw the very possible risk of fatal danger to members of the public and so took the only course of action that were sure would prevent further loss of innocent life. This time they got it wrong and a man, who's crime was relatively immaterial, died. This is a terrible thing, but to then imprison good men who were doing their job to the best of their ability with as much information as they possibly could, to do this would be a sad day.

is a cad and a bounder and a cheeky wee rapacalian but in an odarble cockerney orphan kind of way.

it's simple really alex. if the police didnt' shoot the man who left the house that was under observation, who then acted suspiciously, who then ran from both plain clothed and uniformed officers when they told him to stop, who then tried to board a tube... if they didn't shoot him as he was a terrorist hundreds of innocent people would have died. if they'd make a mistake and shoot 1 Brazilian man dies. If they make a mistake and don't shoot a terrorist hundreds of people die. It's all to easy in hindsight to say they shouldn't have shot, but put yourself in their position, they are shouting after a man who is under suspicion and he runs for a train... howay man you cannot possibly expect anyone to believe that you would somehow have accrued enough information in the time it took to get from the house to the train, categorically stating this mans innocence. You're being far too harsh on the police, they had to shoot and they had to shoot to kill, it is simply not worth the risk to try and take the man alive. split second decision meant a man died, but his decision to run put his life in other peoples hands... along side the guns they were carrying. he ran because he's guilty of a crime and you can sort of understand his desire to evade capture. He obviously did not take into account the current climate in london and the risks he was taking in running away from the Police who demanding his surrender. They can't shoot to wound, they can't use Tazers and they can't simply physically restrain the terrorist because the triggers can be in the hand already. He didn't surrender and with every step he took towards that train, he removed more and more doubt from the pursuing officers mind. if you want to blame people, how about blaming the sick deluded young men who have perpetrated acts of such horror that it is difficult to imagine that they are not mentally ill

should pass the message up to Southern Geordie that I have also used the Moniker "Kyzer Sosay"

don't be a dick alex, its a tragedy that a man died because of the situation, but I hardly apportion blame to the Police. Blame the government if you want, or the Americans, but the police are doing an increasingly risky job with little or no chance of success until the larger issues have been resolved. Yes his death was pointless but you have to hope that it'll prevent other people making terrible mistakes, if not then I truly have no hope for the regular joe on the street. If they're too stupid to stop when told despite seeing what is the probable outcome then they're making a very dangerous bed to lie in.

surely seeing someone shot dead for failing to stop would encourage other people to actually listen to the police as the alternatives could be fatal.

doesn't help me at all... what the hell is cc? should know I'll be hapy in about 8 hours as I'll be homeward bound from work by then

see a lot of people have gone for emre it'd be interesting to see how well the guy does... I'm hoping he'll take to the league lie Larry and not like Hugo
