:crylaughin: And you can fuck right off with that South Tyneside / Wearside shit Look man. Parts of South Tyneside are 1 mile from the Stadium of Shite, what did you want me to put it as, Newcastle/South Tyneside? Also the likes of Midds/NJS/Ketsbaia etc.. were born in Sunderland, so putting South Tyneside beside it sort of hides any embarrassment. I couldn't just put "Sunderland".

The way I'd look at the fee is if I was a mackem, they've swapped Henderson for Wickahm (diff positions I know) and made £7m profit. It doesn't even make sense. The most overrated player in NE FOOTBALL HISTORY, against the best U19 prospect in the country, I know what I'd be happy with.

pmsl Ah aye similar to that I had a brief conversation with Ranieri (in Italian) when he was Chelsea manager, before a desperate Newcastle v Fulham game.

unbelievable stuff

So. Shearer scored 10 in his first 77 top flight games. Younguns need time, Wickham's just turned 18, he'll be a star.

Cracking ambition from the mackems. He is the best under 19 player in this country, I'm convinced he'll be as good as Rooney.

Aye to be fair, forgetting about muslim/FFS/Ashley debates.

"Nee surprise, them wallpushers aren't mine, that other cunt is responsible for them".

Was a lovely old building that, they're knocking the General down now too gonna be a new Tesco's. Tesco's is too pricey for the bamps round there.

Thanks Windy.

Brighton had the full Leazes End and it was packed. This was the middle game of 3 home games in 7 days (the last being the rearranged Wrexham game which was played after all other clubs had completed their campaign - the famous sub 8,000 crowd). We played very against Brighton, the ref had a stinker and I'm sure that it was full house of around 32,000. That was the Cup that, Trelford Mills was the ref, disallowed two good goals and we went oot 0-1.

A lot more new people on the board these days, just interested to see the diversity of the toon supporting public these days. I was born in Newcastle General Hospital what about yous? It's nee disgrace if you weren't born in Newcastle by the way just to make that clear.

I remember adults always seeming to have a lunchtime finish on a Friday and out all day and night when I was a bairn. Reminds me of this song a bit, well no not really just an excuse to post it cos I love it so much. I cant open that link, but is that the song from the Sid the sexist Cartoon? The one in the nightclub when he's using his lines on various women? Nar it's from 1980, the lyrics are amazing, it's nowt to dee with The Viz. The opening lyrics are "ah nearly hoyed mesel off the Byker Waal, when ah seen wor lass wi a puff from Darrissss Haaal..." and it gets better from there.

When I was younger some of my mates, and me to be fair had this pathetic bravado that if you didn't have at least 10 pints you were a fanny. These days I'm half shit faced on 8 pints to be honest. I can do an all day session still but need food in between.

So it's went from people who do the occasional spliff to people who enjoy getting pissed now and then who are pricks pmsl. Something you haven't even considered is, some people actually like beer and wine, I know I do, if alcohol was banned, I'd buy the equivalent alcohol free stuff, cos they're nice.

I was near the front of Gallowgate West that game and couldnt see fuck all, Strachan scored a goal and the ball stuck in the stanchion. Where's our other goal too?? Beardsley's final game that the first time.

Framed pictures of David Koresh on his walls?

I think banning drugs is a a joke in a democratic society. People should be free to make their own decisions even if some of them are perceived as stupid. I've made more stupid decisions in the bookies, with women, with purchases and with my mouth then I ever have with drugs. It's alright saying you've seen the effects of misuse, but it only comes in to the equasion when it's over indulgence, rather than occasional use. 1 in 22m people die taking an e for example.

In all fairness J69, I don't see anyone saying on here that doing drugs makes you cool. they're just another way to let off some steam. no worse than having a drink if you ask me. each to their own like but no one likes a preacher.

What is even more tragic is people who are too ignorant to differentiate between the effects of one drug to the other. Ignorance and backwardness to be honest.

That used to happen every week 93-96 haha them were the days, not always a lass mind. Against Swindon (a game that indirectly saw Sunderland promoted 2 years later for those who know your history) one of Gazza's best games for the toon, after his best goal, its on Jonny's vids on youtube, you see a little body jumping up beside the steward in the Gallowgate, with a black and yellow toon/Brazil hat, that was me. The first game they pulled the fences down after Hillsborough was a home game against Luton in our relegation season, pishy 0-0 draw, I was right at the front of the corner and caught the ball, dropped it and got shouted at from the crowd for taking too long to get it (shows how empty it was). Caught the ball again against Derby was in the Benches and bought the official club video just to see myself, but it wasn't close up. Was ball boy against Oxford a 4-3 win, and I got the last "North East Co-op" tracksuits you had to wear, and there was a big hole on one of the arse cheeks, and I only had red and white boxer shorts on, got so much abuse from the Gallowgate. When I won me holiday on the telly, I mentioned Newcastle United three times, one of them mentioning we'd just beaten Man Utd 3-0 which went down well. Been on telly talking about the toon a few times, and radio fucking loads of times had an epic row with Adrian Durham in which I achieved the impossible, and at the end he said "well perhaps I need to reconsider my view", and in the papers, most recently regarding the Arsenal game last season. Havent heard those stories before..... Get them told. Feels like am bragging though and it's nowt to brag about. Me and four of me friends went on a show called "Friends Like These" or CLT as we childishly called it. Was 2000, so we were just bairns really 20 to 23. Was five lads against five lasses, you do a task against a lass, mine was like Simon Says, I pissed it. Anyway we won 3-2, so then we had to answer 5 questions about each other to win the holiday, we only got 4 right so, the one we got the q wrong about had to stay or we had to gamble the holiday to get the other kidda there. Anyway the question was what year did Mark see the Manic Street Preachers at the City Haal, we all knew it was 96 cos it was the neet before we lost to Man Utd, so we got it right and gave it the old Bob Stokoe celebrations round the studio, and we won a 2 week holiday in Thailand, was fuckin excellent. Been on Sky years ago slagging FFS stood beside Kevin Miles after he said geordie women were dogs, was on Look North years agan after the Sunderland play off, was just a bairn, said a was never going back, and the row with Adrian Durham, the program question was Man City are bigger than Newcastle, discuss.... he said Man City were a bigger club than Newcastle because they had more trophies. So I went on and said he was the most clueless person in sports journalism today, no idea how I didn't get cut off, and told him to do more research because we had 5 more trophies than them mugs, WERE richer, more famous, more successful and had far more fans. Mick Quinn even called him a mug, and that's when he did the backtracking. Excellent stuff I vaguely remember that show. Surely you have the video somewhere for our amusement. Found this one but havent watched it. Are you on this one? Nar. The lasses were fit as fuck, three of us literally had them. They were weegies, the fittest one of them was model material but she was up herself. I haven't got a video of it to be honest. Haven't got a VHS recorder now, me mates got the vid, if I knew how to transfer VHS on to DVD or on here I'd stick it on. It comes on Challenge TV about once a year though. The green room is shit by the way.

who?

Very rare nowadays like. We're doing a weekend away in Leeds for the pre-season friendly, so I might get some for then like. Btw - I think the best toot I've had for years is the shit you used to bring up from London. It's normally shite what you get up here. Completely spot on, I've never ever had good toot up here. Had some excellent stuff in Amsterdam a few times, but the stuff I had at Christmas down London, was by far the best ever, too good though to be honest, if I had £200 on me I would've bought 5g so probs a good thing I didn't. Aye Toots shite now like, I dont understand why the world and his wife still seem to bother with it. I think I read that its about 8% pure now though if you look you can get the good stuff now and then. Was good ten year ago like.. That London stuff I had was fuckin excellent. Was this fairly recently like? Sounds good! I suppose it must come in to the country further down south and get bashed every step of the way until it gets up here... Blyth is a big drugs port though. December mate, could still feel it in me system two days later fuck knows how.

I did not know you were a student there Roberto Not one person on this forum would've opened Rob's post thinking "this might be good", and they'd be right too.
