unless it was just outside Stoke, The point being that it is a one-club city, its natural catchment area is more unique, it does stand apart from everywhere bar Sunderland and Boro, it does have less competition than the north west etc which is why its a far cooler club to support than Blackburn, as all the geographical circumstances lead to a different relationship between the people of the city and the club. BigChris is basically trying to argue 'yeah well, you wouldnt be like that if it wasnt like that'. Which in my opinion (and i say this with respect) is a bit stupid.

So basically, if Newcastle was somewhere else, it wouldnt be Newcastle? Thanks for coming.

Here man, 'two left clogs' or whatever you're called, people on here dont like Allardyce, whether rightly or wrongly, thats their perogative. However, the fans never called for his head and in his last away game he had 5000 away fans singing him encouragement "Big Sam's Black and White army" despite the fact that the football was utter bilge. I watched you's on sunday against Wigan and despite the fact that your second goal was basic cheating, you still managed to look far better than we did under him, for whatever reason. Well done you lot.

Low slung sofas and ergonomic kitchens have a lot to answer for.

One lump or two?

Well if we're going to give credit where it's due then Bruce Haack is the man really. If you say so.

I'm surprised there wasn't a stiff reprimand. Sympathy nosh?

Surely the first use of vocoders was Kraftwerk?

Our lass watched Liverpool Arsenal with me, then the pompey game this week. When she saw who we were playing next, her face was a picture. "Are you in the same league?" Not for long pet.

imported people Interesting point though. Difference for me is, the 100k spent in the UK remains within the Uk economy and is then spent by its recipients, who then spend it too, who then spend it too etc. Its called the multiplier and is the foundation of Keynesianism. Send it abroad and its a dead loss to the domestic economy, spend it here and there are broader benefits.

Free bar though, whats a man to do? Pace himself, obviously. It's not easy though Indeed, i dont think the lad can believe his luck. They should do an open-mic session too, now that would be funny.

A lot of music in these lists is very average tbh. If you were compiling this list seriously and thinking about albums with far reaching musical and cultural influence, then a lot of the albums listed are pretty derivative and pretty obscure to the average person. Since everyone loves music (its not a specialist art, like sculpture), that tells you a lot. I'll get slated for this but for me two massively important albums of this decade are MJ Cole's Sincere and The Streets - Orginal Pirate Material. Fresh, different, influential, innovative at that time. Of course this last bit is the most important. To take and example from a discussion yesterday, if Neu! released Hollagolla today, no-one woudl bat an eyelid. The fact that it was released in 1972 makes it genre defining and therefore an important piece of music. People would rather choose Burial as their album of the decade as its cooler, when in fact the foundation for Burial's sound was laid down 9 years earlier on a more influential album.

Dave K gets an invite to DJ at my imaginary party, S John gets to hand out vol-au-vents tbh.

Irony possibly lost on a few.

I'll wander near it. It's a load of bollocks, as usual, started by a man trying to explain why his overpaid and expensive team got beaten by little old Blackburn. That and when Hughes took over we needed to play in your face football to survive. Now it's a cliche and people who repeat and continue to propagate the cliche look like morons. End of. Well said, lets hope that idea catches on.

"How man, Hey man @ Baltic"

I used that term specifically as we all know Stevie is an artist.

I'm not doing 'nice' today, for obvious reasons.

So you're replying to his oeuvre not the OP? As long as we are clear on that, fair enough.

Cant believe fans of other clubs are getting their knickers in a twist over an OP which was heartfelt and spot on but used the words 'babbling', 'waffling' and 'pissed' in the title. The timing of the post is also just after one of the worst moments in our recent history. Yet still they come to counter-claim and criticise. Pejorative pricks.
