You cant just go to a game in Newcastle without visting the rest of the ancient Kingdom of Northumbria mind...I can see time is tight for you dbs but if you can squeeze in Lindisfarne and Bamburgh you should.

My mate went for a golf lesson....the pro took one look at his swing and said "I can see your problem straight away....a very bad case of loft" my mate said "is that like a slice or a hook or something?" "No" the pro said "its lack of fuckin talent holding you back mate, nothing else" This is funnier because its true

Another fine job for NUFC by Simon Stainrod

Giving your age away now @ys!

As we speak some posho English chep living in Tribeca on the BBC news channel explaining how its ok for him on the 5th floor of his apartment block.....I wonder if the fortune teller in Battery Park is ok...he said I'd be a rich man one day, the fuckin lying twat

"Zoe Connolly in Washington" has just said on the beeb that its 900 miles wide!!

900 more tickets available according to .cock.....got to have between 35-69 points and have the applcation in by 5pm on Wednesday, pick up in person Friday before 7pm. http://www.nufc.com/ I got mine but two mates put their application too late and didnt get theirs, which is fuckin strange as we all applied on the same day Rumours of a drink ban in Brugge.....thinking about staying here...."oh I do like to be beside the seaside......" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blankenberge

Thats why he was never prosecuted while he was alive....he knew where all the bodies were buried....

Aye, until you've walked a mile in their boots... In reality it is the politicians who sent them there who are ultimately hanging these lads out to dry, thats what I was getting at. And people expressing a very black and white opinion on them in a free world made possible by their courage. As I said, its the old "a few good men" argument.We can say they should be prosecuted because of their actions, whether you agree with them or not. I think its a very, very grey moral area.

So its "go and put your life on the line, and if you fuck up for any reason you'll be judged by those who wouldnt dream of doing what you volunteer for, and then jailed".If you ask me thats as morally wrong as leaving someone to die whos just attacked you, whilst you are out defending the rights of those who are doing the judging. Lifes not fair, and it wasnt fair for the insurgent either. But I know who's side am on.

Why didnt he stay on his feet?...has he got form for it?....does he have anyone to blame but himself?....refs are in a difficult posistion, stop trying to con them and you may get the much vaunted "greater consistancy" that the wise old owls are crying out for.

I was trying to imply the "law" is clear on this, as youve pointed out ...but is it a law if only one side is signed up to it?...tell me if am wrong, because am really not sure, but isnt the Geneva convention only applicable when both sides are on an equal footing? i.e. when it was written things were a lot more black and white, one nation v another...this isnt like that, and it may be a mealy mouthed legal technicality but the Geneva Convention may well have nothing to do with the prosecuiton of these lads.Its the same thing that allowed Gunatanmo to be set up. UN human rights laws may well be invoked, am sure they are pretty similar, but the UN being the UN they can no more stand up to any powerful nation than fly to the fuckin moon. Do you not subscribe to the old "disagree with the war, but when folks are out there they get full public support" then?..

6ft tall and ginger. Variously known as Chris Evans or, if were being kind, Mick Hucknall.

So would I.... but he did shag my mates daughter in Cardiff the night before the semi v manu in 2005 so he does have form for being tasteless....

Well no, but deciding whether to give someone who may or may not have been an "insurgent " medical treatment is morally, if not legally, a grey area and iyam this will be difficult to prove in a court of law so its going to military court. And the locals in Afghanistan and Iraq are/were overwhelmingly treated with the milk of human kindness by UK troops. It would be for the greater good of all those deployed if this prosecution didnt go ahead. Indisputable evidence of the other stuff you mention is different, and has been dealt with. No thanks to Piers Morgan like, but there you go...lots of different agendas going on..

He says if you call him a soldier again he'll hunt you down a kill you...he's asked me to point out to you that he was a ROYAL MARINE!! How do you think this potential prosecution will affect not only future recruitment but also every single serviceman/woman currently deployed to a warzone? I dont happen to support the "war on terror", these training camps were wildly over emphasised by Bush in 2002, but if our elected politicians deem it acceptable to send people to fight in these places, then I think they should receive our full support. That means not prosecuting things that happen in a war zone. Its a war, bad things happen. Someones looking to make a name for themsleves over this, the marine who owned the laptop is a dead man walking and those being prosecuted are now thought likely to be court martialled rather than tried in civil courts. In other words, a right fuckin mess.

Someones leaving Ant. Fuck knows if a defender is coming in but theres got to be a midfielder leaving.

Someone claimed yesterday that Anita was Tiote's replacement...is this lad Cabyae's?...

Toulouse.

I think they expected him to leave in the summer, and Tiote. Thats why we're piddling around not playing the system that suits our midfielders best. Some very good points on here post game, were we in 4th last season at this point because Chelsea and Arsenal were under acheiveing? more than likely. Thing is we hadnt needed to play brilliantly top get 4th, just be competant and beat those who we had a good chance of beating. Like yesterday. I still think we have it in us to go on a run like we did last spring, and theres still the chance we could get someone like Brighton in the cup and get put out in the 3rd round. So I don't think hardly anything has changed. Don't know whats going to happen with Demba in January, but I think whatever it is will shape and define the rest of the season.

Yeah thats the other side of the coin. But that statement does accept that we should be in Afghanistan to prevent them setting up training camps there, which old whats his name seems to think isnt required, despite evidence of the Taliban/ Al Qaeda tie up before 9-11. So if we're in there, this stuff will happen. Its a war. Its tricky to say the least. But from what my mate says theres not a jury in the land consisting predominantly of white English people that wont laugh this out of court, which does rather make it look a bit of a fools errand. You could accuse him of bias, but he's got a first in Criminology too. He's ferociously intelligent and he's made me think again about a lot of things. We'll see if he's right.

You shouldnt be so colloquial in your thinking old son....look at Afghanistan on the map, then look at Iraq, then look at the country which seperates them. I can be pretty right on myself, but sharing a desk with an ex sergeant in 40 Commando often disarms me of such trendy notions. Its the old " a few good men" argument....the human rights we and others in the errr "free world" enjoy are upheld by drone attacks. War is an abnormal situation, and whatever happened and whoever it happeend to, its hardly going to be a very good recruiting tool if marines are prosecuted for what they did or didnt do, and that could be very bad for us all if the shit was truly to hit the fan.

err...what about the rest of what I said?...does none of that come into it and you just feel the players "really need to sort themselves out" ?......best to judge the season as a whole and not just on a bad trot of games. We've not performed to the standards we set last spring, thats for sure. Did we play better or worse today than we did when Brighton put us out of the cup last season?...fuckin Brighton man! Today wasnt great but this season still holds a lot of promise, theres no need for kneejerking iyam. West Brom are decent, but they couldnt finish us off despite us being shite.
