McFaul

I went out on Monday, had a few pints with my lass, had a reasonable nights sleep on the night time. Did some shopping late Tuesday morning, walked in to the bookies to put a bet on the football and I could feel myself drifting, everything seemed to be shaking. The next thing I know I'm thinking "for fuck saaaake." then I'm out like a lamp. 20 minutes later I wake up in an ambulance heading to hospital. I fell unconscious and hit a table and chair in Ladbrokes like a dead weight, the cunts in there thought I was dead apparently! 9 hours after that, various xrays and other brain tests, reveal that by all intents and purposes I should be really fit going off the readings, but no one knows why I blacked out. We're at four days later now, my legs and arms are tight as fuck, I've got a cut around and above my eye like something off the early Rocky films, I've obviously bitten my tongue because it's all over the place, numb as fuck and I'm speaking with a worse lisp than Chris Eubank and no one seems to know what the fuck happened.

I've jacked my season ticket. First time I won't have a season ticket since 1991. I'm not going back neither until he dies or sells.

Fuck all which is why my season ticket was jacked three weeks ago. It's not even a case of spend 100s of millions, but look at Everton, we should be infinitely better than them, we make more money than them, and should be 10 times more attractive than them. If we were Everton now with Ashley in charge, Barclay would be away for £30m, with Pardew defending Ashley. I hope we get 25,000 next season. I always thought I was as loyal as you get, but I'm not, I'm not putting up with it anymore and I couldn't give a fuck if we get relegated. I want as many things as possible to happen to make that fat bastard fuck off, then I'll come back.

Nee different from Boro that, a few seasons in their glory Premier League days then offmans.

Haven't really got a second team where I'm gutted if they lose, but the Bilbao people are different class. I'd love to see them do something good because there's no glory hunters and you have to respect their principles. Went to San Memes in 1994 and will never forget the reception we got. In England I like to see Carlisle doing well, and of the so called big teams I hate Man Utd the least.

hehehe strangely, there's not many mackem words in the accent and dare I say it, they sound far more like us. They say daft words like daint, and say yee like mackems "yeeyy", but there's not much mackem in there. As soon as you get to Whitburn (which in terms of buildings isn't bad) though your definitely in Wearside Jack territory, the heads, the fatness, the accent, the staffordshire bull terriers, the gingerness. Just awful.

There's no words other than fuck off back to RGS you spotty gimp. The kid not you MF.

I buy the odd one for 5 a side, but rarely ever a club team, and I won't give fatty any money anyway now. However Gateshead have about 200 real fans, the rest support the toon, 8200 at the last home game, I'd guess at least 6000 of them are toon fans, if they don't want our support fuck off and do a Blue Star as far as I'm concerned. Paraffins.

Aye she's there blonde lass. He's about 60, she'll be about 40. She is very miserable. It's a shame cos its a good bar to watch the football, 3.34 a pint is a bit steep like but it's always full.

So am I. Warkworth Avenue. 80% SMB imo. Was in the Jolly Stewart and The Fountain last neet, wanker that Bob in there. Tries to embarrass people.

They represent the football club. It's no different from writing a letter telling them what you think.

I'm on your manor at the minute. "The Nook" library.

I mind you saying that a while ago. The bit that really irritates me is dickheads around the country coming out with the laughable "I can't see what Ashley has done wrong." We haven't actually signed a player for 18 fuckin month. I don't have much hate in me, but I actually HATE people who support Ashley, they are nothing but alternative view wanks, with a poor sex life and little personality trying to appear that little bit different.

I've had a season ticket since October 1991. On Thursday I rang the club and told them that was the finish, and it is. I'm no longer a season ticket holder aft1er 20 odd years, and I won't be back at St James' till Ashley is gone. Even if by some miracle we fluke a 6th place finish, there's no way on earth I'm going back til fatty is either dead or gone.

Recent piece I wrote on my site. moderndaydoilum General moans about life and football May 8, 2014by moderndaydoilum Liverpool Football Club It doesn’t matter where you go in the world, there are good and bad people. There’s very few cities in the world where you find people with as much pride in their area as you get in Newcastle upon Tyne. I think without any bias geordies have as much local identity as any group of people in Britain. However scouse pride is every bit as great, in their area and what they believe it means to be scouse. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being proud of where you’re from and to be fair Liverpool as a city has a far more decorated history than the vast majority of places. It was once the second wealthiest city in the entire British Empire. Some statemen that when you think we controlled 25% of the British Empire at one point. The actual centre of Liverpool isn’t a bad place at all and has a whole host of listed buildings, so there’s nothing wrong with being proud of where you’re from. On top of that the city has won 27 league titles, 18 for Liverpool, and remarkably 9 for Everton, and when you think London is more than eight times the size, has 14 football clubs, yet they’ve only won 19 between them all, then it really is some achievement. It truly puts in to perspective the place that Merseyside bu hook or crook has developed for itself in football history. I don’t want to come across as bigoted but scousers in my view are like no other on this island. This piece isn’t specifically about Everton FC, or scousers specifically though, it’s about the most self absorbed club and group of supporters anywhere in Europe. That club is Liverpool FC. When you speak to a Liverpool fan at a match, you have a 50/50 chance of speaking to someone actually from the North West. You go to Anfield and there’s often that many Chinese/French/Irish/Spanish/Japanese etc…. that you could quite easily believe you’re at Madam Tussaud’s rather than an actual sporting arena. The amount of people getting their photo’s taken beside the Shankly Gates is incredible. I’ve been there many times it’s always the same. Their worldwide support is based on one thing. Glory hunting. The Liverpool Way has fed the imagination of foreigners around the world. What is the “Liverpool Way”? Liverpool fans often try to claim they are the greatest supporters in the world. In what way though? In 2004 they were getting 35,000 regularly because they were only 5th. In 2001 they were proclaiming Gerard Houllier with his three trophies as the greatest manager in the world. Three years later with Gerard still recovering from a heart attack he was the most clueless manager they’d ever had since before Shankly. Liverpool fans are everything I pray that we don’t turn out to be, if by some miracle we’re every successful. Hillsborough was by far the most disasterous event in the history of British sport, I was only young and remember it like it was yesterday. An awful way to go and the parents, friends and associates deserve every respect for fighting against police and government convenience lies to prove their innocence after 24 years. Anyone with a heart can feel for the entire area given the sickening events. However, Heysel was a completely different matter. Whenever you mention Heysel to a Liverpool fan they get emotional, because they know they were in the wrong. They were a disgrace. Whether they like it or not Liverpool’s match going to support in Brussell’s that day cause the deaths of 38 Italians and 1 Belgian innocent football fan due to their shocking violence that evening. An evening when Liverpool fans sent English football back 10 years. You could say the actual football style didn’t remotely begin to improve for well over a decade because the only way the vast majority of our players could taste European football of any degree was leaving England to play for foreign clubs. As ever though they take such conversations with distain. “Ay lad all English teams were workin themselves in them days.” A degree of truth in that possibly. The bit that’s missing is that not one caused the death of any foreign supporters in any game let alone in an European final. When Manchester United fans sing to them,”it’s never your fault, it’s never your fault, always the victims, it’s never your fault.”, it’s so poignant because it really is true. You would think a club like them would learn from such an incredibly sickening behaviour. Yet 23 years after Heysel and 18 years after Hillsborough, Liverpool fans without tickets at the 2007 final in Athens, ROBBED their own supporters of their tickets, then when many tried and failed to rob others, they steamed the gates and many hundreds of ticketless fans gained entry to the stadium. Since 1985 to my knowledge, Manchester United many times, Chelsea, Arsenal, Middlesbrough and Fulham have all appeared in European finals without any incident at all. Yet Liverpool’s first top end European final in 22 years sees the same insociable sickening behaviour. You can’t just dismiss it as chance. Why is it always the same club? Why when they’re questioned about anything that you could lay criticism to them do they react like they’re the victims. The entire country is aware what they are like. You can’t just say “bastard scousers”, because to be fair, when have Everton fans done any of the following? Heysel? Throwing shit at young away fans at Anfield whenever they play Manchester United? Athens? Various stabbings? That’s only scratching the surface too. They are scum. Whenever they’re told the truth neither, they get upset like the emotional arseholes they are. They are the biggest embarrassment to English football in our countries history. They are the most ridiculed, pitied, hated supporters in this country. The reaction the other night confirmed it. No one cares if Man Utd or Chelsea or Arsenal win the league, but not Liverpool. The entire country rejoiced. The victims got their day to be the victims once again against CrystalPalace, and I’m not ashamed to admit I cheered CrystalPalace’s equaliser like it was a Newcastle goal. I’m not a hateful person, and nor are many millions who wish the worst for this club. It’s not jealousy, I’d rather we win fuck all than be anything like that shower of shite, it’s absolute contempt for what they are. I don’t like this line “all football fans are the same”. It’s a load of bollocks, we’re nothing like them in any way, achievement wise, support profile wise, attitude wise, and thank fuck for that.

I'm on the ten year deal had to chuck it before March, so I'm stuck with it. The football aspect has become secondary, it's just an excuse to go to the town now.

The mackems need one win from their last three. They'll get it, no doubt about it, they'll beat WBA and that will be it. That would leave Fulham needing 2 wins from their last two games, not going to happen, while Norwich would need to beat Chelsea and Arsenal, again absolutely no chance. The mackems are 90% certain to stay up now.

Ashley is a cunt and that's the finish from me, he's destroyed everything.

Very good sentence this and spot on, I've even tweeted it, it's so good.

I couldn't give a fuck, never felt such apathy towards the club in my lifetime. Likely to be 3 or 4-0 against what I regard as the worst Arsenal side in the last 18 years.

Ashley to sell up. I'd take League Two football I hate him that much. I don't just want him to sell up, I want the rest of his life to be shit. The man is a fat cunt, the worst person in the entire history of the club, and that's a bold statement. 3 billion in the bank and he lets the club drift like it is. Absolute cunt.

Cheers for the feedback. About 6 seasons in a row I've said I'll jack it, but I don't have the heart to do it.

Sir Bobby Robson must turn in his grave at our classless manager I remember beating Tottenham 3-1 about 2008 and the Spurs fans were singing, “aww ya do, aww ya do, aww ya do is faakin moan! aww ya do is faakin moan.” A few other people have accused us of being whingers too in the past. David Pleat, the former Tottenham manager disgraced in many papers for curb crawling, once said that Newcastle fans give the team an unfair advantage because we appeal for every decision we can even when it’s ridiculous, thus unfairly winning free kicks on a regular basis. To be honest I think that was one of the best parts of our support 10 or 15 years ago. We used to intimidate the opposition and referees. I think that is a sign of positive whinging doing our best as supporters to help the team. Now our whinging is different. We whinge because we are upset at every aspect surrounding the club. It’s very easy to slate Ashley, he for me is one of the single biggest twats in the clubs history. I don’t want to sound melodramatic but he honestly is. He is a scumbag. People keep saying he’s a smart businessman. Newcastle United financially and any other way aren’t reaching half of their potential because of how the chairman has ran the club from top to bottom for nearly 7 years. His “he’ll do”, “they’ll do”, “a little profit will do” attitudes are systematically producing apathy surrounding the club that I’ve personally never seen in three decades. Enough about Ashley for now though, there’s only so many ways you can portray him as the anti-Christ, and believe me I’ve tried every single one ten times over. Ashley is one thing. He’s never going to change. I think he’s the absolute epitome of a real life Gordon Gecho, who will never ever accept criticism, will do it his way, and will make life difficult for anyone who ever criticises him. Pardew even once hinted at the fact that, “Mike sometimes doesn’t do things with the best interests of the football club at heart”. In other words Mike can’t handle the situation that he is widely hated, and will do everything he can to make people aware of the fact that he is the all powerful, all conquering fifth richest British person in the UK. What a cunt. WHAT A CUNT. Anyway that’s the last time I mention him. Before Pardew came in, I honestly think Hughton was doing a decent job, we were mid-table and doing alright. I’d heard before we beat the mackems 5-1 Pardew was coming in as manager, we’d beaten Arsenal, West Ham and Sunderland in a fortnight and sadly for Chrissy his departure was only delayed by 6 weeks as a result. That season we scored 41 goals at home, bettered only by champions Manchester United and 7 more than the third best home scorers Man City. Not bad for a team who were in the Championship the previous season. 6-0 wins against Villa, 5-1 wins against the mackems, away wins at Arsenal, Everton and West Ham, but “Mike’s feeling was Chris didn’t quite have the experience”. I’m not saying Hughton is or was the world’s best manager, but his performance from August 2009 to December 2010 was worthy of at least 8 out of 10. How he was treat was a disgrace, an absolute disgrace, a bloke with more dignity in his left toe than Ashley will ever produce in a lifetime. Pardew came in and rightly the vast majority of people were up in arms. He’d always been a smarmy embarrassing arsehole. Yes the Pards/Wenger incident was funny in 2006 when West Ham got that last minute winner against Arsenal, but do you really want your manager being a common as fuck classless wanker, or having dignity, respect and intelligence? The rest of the 2010/2011 season under Pardew saw some decent results, the 4-4 with Arsenal was great, the 5-0 against West Ham when Leon Best scored a hattrick was staggering, but that was it for me. That season saw the last time we showed any attacking REAL attacking intent. The 2011/2012 saw us come 5th, we made some absolutely brilliant buys, primarily down to Graham Carr. Demba was excellent up front, Cabaye magnificent, even Jonas had a reasonably good season. We were incredibly lucky in many games, our goal difference of +5 told a story when you consider Tottenham in 4th were +25, but by hook or by crook it was a canny season. Since then it’s been shit. Every time we look like being a really decent side, we’ve put holes in the side without proper planning and replacements. It was obvious Cabaye would be away, not even a thought of replacing him before the end of the season, “oh its OK we’re so far clear of 11th we’ll achieve our objectives this season.”. I’ve never been a football manager of anything like that, other than my 5 a side team or a game of ChampMan back in the day on the computer winning the Premier League with Huddersfield Town, but I tell you what this idiot simply can not do, and that is get his side to play fluid football. I’m all for managers playing it tight when it’s working. George Graham won the title with Arsenal playing like that. The problem with Pardew’s tactics are so blatantly obvious to football managerial novices like myself, but he does fuck all about it. WE NEVER MOVE OFF THE BALL!!! We just don’t run off the ball. You can say well maybe we don’t have the players to do it, but even if that’s the case (and I don’t necessarily think it is), why do Newcastle United not sign players who can so at least our tactics can be more fluid than they are. Why do journalists never ask him, why for 3 years he has insisted on playing tight, battling, defensive football, which is fine when it’s working but totally unacceptable when it’s not. It’s fine coming out with all of the geordie myths like, “the geordies would rather lose 4-3 than win 1-0.” That is total bollocks, but what if we’re going to go down, one thing that in my deluded mind that should be ingrained in the very fibre of the football club, is that we at least try and entertain over 50,000 mugs who waste money on this shower of shite every year. I finally lost my patience with Pardew as a human being after we beat Chelsea 2-0 as it happens. It was without doubt in my view the greatest Newcastle performance in his era as manager of the club, he’d been given nothing to spend for 12 months, when we really needed it, and he came out with the following, ““This win is for Mike Ashley. Trust me, he is a fan and I’m pleased for him.” This win is for an owner who has on occasion even admitted doesn’t do things with the best interests of the club at heart. Fucking classless arsehole. You look at the dignity Sir Bobby Robson had as manager of the club, he wasn’t bothered about money, about his contract he just got on with it, and the best thing I can say about SBR was he did as much to brighten the name of Newcastle United worldwide as Keegan did. We were a club to be proud of. Now we have Pardew who goes around calling proven European managers “old cunts”, who sticks the nut on opposition players, and an owner who doesn’t give a fuck, it’s all about money. Make no mistake about it, Pardew will receive a fortune for being in the top 10 with this new Premier League deal. That’s why he’s content to come out with things like “that ones for Mike”, when we get a win despite “Mike” giving him fuck all to spend for the best part of two years. It’s all about money, and it always will be. Pardew will go along with it because he is a classless wanker, who will make money and try and enhance his reputation till a plastic southern club like Tottenham or Chelsea want him. Fucking arsehole. His time is up – 10 league games without scoring in the last 14, would see most managers of any reasonably sized club face massive pressure, but Pardew knows he’s alright because he’s achieved the top ten objective, he doesn’t give a fuck, and neither does Ashley as long as the Premier League money train is coming in to town, which it is.

As someone who was there as part of 10,004 against Oxford in 1991, a game where no one cared, I think this is bollocks. We had 48,000 paying good money for the last game.
