If you could change one thing you wrote on here...
Ted Maul replied to Optimistic Nut's topic in Newcastle Forum
I'd probably delete the comment in which I said I wanted us to get beat in the cup by Coventry after the Souness/Bellers fiasco. I was blatently fishing but it didn't stop Mr. Hayton from bringing it up everytime we had an argument for the next six months. -
I can take him or leave him

I shudder to think how I would have coped with my two years of biology, chemistry and maths crammed into one year. If you feel you didn't do very well at college, how is halving the time you spend there going to achieve anything? The fact I didn't do well wasn't because I found it difficult, just because I was bone idle. Alot of the stuff I was taught at A-level I was also taught at GCSE which made me lose intrest fairly quickly. I can only speak from my experience but I think if I spent as much time in college as I did School i'd have been able to perform just as well in my final exams than I did having two years of intermittent learning.

I was bored at work a week or two back so it got me thinking about the education system. Rather than have two years at college there should be a compulsory Year 12 straight after GCSEs (9am-3:30pm, typical school day). Based on what the student wants to study at University they'll get a timetable of 3 subjects (Say the student wants to do Journalism, they can do English Language, Media Studies and History or something along those lines). It would be possible to get the same amount of contact time for a full two years into one year and probably cut out all the shite aswell. I spent two years at college and got precisely fuck all out of it apart from 3 D's. I think they really need to change the way A-levels are taught.

Atleast I don't knick thread titles from Billy Connolly jokes At least I don't mistake Sean Connery for Martin Jol. Atleast i'm not hung like a Chinese mouse You're a midget though, aren't you? I'm sure you've admitted to being under 5 foot tall. I stand at a very manly 5'11 with a 30 inch waist and slightly less skinnier arms than Mark. How about you?

I always intervene, it makes life more interesting. I said to one bitch in the supermarket queue yesteday that if her 'child' (he was massive) stood on my toe again I would stand on his head. In broken Germanise obviously. I'm even complain if someone puts their seat back against my table on a short flight. Get in there man.....Have fun!!! Once I sat there in the cinema and pretended to eat noisily (even though I had no snacks) to get the nacho eater in front of me to shut up. .......People have no manners these days and I won't tolerate it!! You're mental, both of yers!

Itsh like Martin Jol created thish thread, yesh?

I think you need that to make it cumpulsory for the remaing shares to be sold, and you can then take the company out of the public domain, or something. Where's an accountant when you need one? I'm pretty sure that the craic is that if you own 30% or more of the shares, then you are required to make an offer for the remainder. Which is why Shepherd is buying up to 29.9% but no further. If you want to take the club private (which Belgravia would) then you need to get to a point where you own 75% or more, at which point certain legal rights are transferred to allow you to buy up the remainder (I think). Which is why Shepherd owning >25% makes it impossible for Belgravia to take the club private as long as he refuses to sell up. They can take a controlling ownership of the club and oust him as chairman but that's still no use to them if he won't sell up. They want full ownership. Ahhhh...I see. Just out of interest though, what was the craic with Quinn and the 90% then if you're saying he only needed 75%? Or am I being a mong? I can remember Quinn harping on about 90% aswell but when the Glazers took over ManUre it was just 75%.

Agree, I'd hate us if I wasn't an us. Of course, according to some, it's all down to jealousy. I actually do hate us. I hate the players, the management, the fans. We're shits. I hope we go down.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ity/6135206.stm Bid accepted The Mackems are going spare on this'un They can't believe a) that they haven't went in for him and B ) if they did that he'd choose Cardiff over Sunderland

Surely if the halls sell then he isn't holding the cards. Belgravia can vote him off the board. really? when his stake is close to 30%? i expect he will be the main stumbling block to any potential takeover. if he doesn't want it to happen he has a big enough stake to make it very difficult. But wouldn't buying both the Halls shares take them over 30% meaning they'd have to make an offer for the rest of the company? I know Fat Fred would tell them to fuck off but wouldn't it put any consortium in a stronger position that Fred?

You didn't need to smack them. You could've just went "Hoy, bastids! Stop acting like a couple of chebs or i'll send The Fish round to yer home to eat yers!" You'd have never heard from them again for the whole flight.

Basically confirms everything that I thought. Gemmill is a ponce who wont even say anything to a bunch of badly behaved kids

Now 1% may not seem alot but when you think that they've bought 1,375,000 at around 78p at time then whoever it must have some cash. Belgravia perhaps?
