Positive? Booing, waving money at the greedy twat and ripping the piss out of their cup defeat? Atmosphere was brilliant though. He's on about me and TN sitting at home rocking back and forth and chanting. -

Newcastle United v Manchester United

I thought it was a canny performance and was pleased with the point but how was that a magnificent game? Sky's post-match highlights were basically a quick look or two at the Giggs chance, the potential Lovenkrands pen then about 20 re-runs of the alleged foul in the box on Hernandez. Man Utd were poor and we played quite well (given the quality of the opposition) but it must have been dull as ditchwater for the neutral. Not really fussed what it did for the neutral. For me, given who we were playing, the knowledge that a good stuffing might follow and then the way in which we tore them apart for about 20 mins followed the tension of holding on for the vital point. All added to the event for me. Not a 5-1 or 4-4 but still very good imo -

Only Nolan missing surely? Without going all CT I'm sure we could have "easily" finished 6th or 7th if we had any sembance of a strikeforce - maybe even if we'd just kept Carroll. All ct???? Whats the difference apart from mine being foresight (ish) and yours being hindsight. -

A truly magnificent game with a particularly pulsating first half. Nice to put in a performance like that on the box. Krul did well and that first save was superb. I have no doubt Harper would have still be going down as the ball hit the back of the net, had he been playing. Strikers aside, the rest of the team were great and must have been fucked after the first half alone. Not keen on having a shiny head running around the park. Credit to Pardew as well. Looked as though he was running the technical area well, gestating at the ref for decisions etc and would like to think that its his influence starting to tease the best out of Jonas. That result / game, shown around the world, will have done wonders for our team / club morale and helped our recruitment drive no end. -

We got a Sony a few years ago and having done quite a bit of research at the time, they came out on top. Their web page gives you a good breakdown between the different styles available. http://www.sony.co.uk/hub/handycam-camcorders Most come with their own software suites, however it really depends how much you want to get involved in it. The only thing I will add is this. We've had two camcorders and they spen most of their time in the cupboard. I used to take it on holiday and would then find myself spending more time behind the camera capturing "moments" rather than being in front of the camera enjoying the same moments.

Marvellous stuff Mr Fist

The winner? Having given this some more thought..... This also puts me 4 steps from the oval office, 4 steps from the big red button, 4 steps from the book of secrets ( Roswell etc) and within touching distance ( if not inside) Marylin Monroe! Met this lady in the pub some time later and she began to tell me about the time she was kidnapped by the IRA.......... Never mind, it was good while it lasted.

Italian chocolate tycoon Pietro Ferrero has died in a biking accident in South Africa. The joint chief executive of the Ferrero company, which owns Ferrero Rocher and Nutella, fell from his bike after reportedly being taken ill while cycling. A spokesman for the chocolate company spoke of the group's "deep dismay" on hearing of Mr Ferrero's death while on a business trip in South Africa. The 47-year-old, who was married with three children, had run the Ferrero company with his younger brother Giovanni since 1997. Their father, 85-year-old Michele Ferrero, had first taken over the firm in 1957 and is credited with turning it into a global leader in the confectionary industry. The senior Mr Ferrero, who is still company chairman, was recently named by Forbes magazine as the richest man in Italy, ahead of Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. Foreign minister Franco Frattini paid tribute to Pietro Ferrero, saying he had "brought an exceptionally important contribution to the Made in Italy brand around the world". Emma Marcegaglia, president of the Italian employers' federation Confindustria, described Mr Ferrero as "an entrepreneur of quality and one of the greatest representatives of Italian capitalism". The chocolate company first came into being in the 1940s when a local pastry chef, also named Pietro Ferrero, added nuts to a chocolate spread to cut down on the expensive cocoa content, thereby creating Nutella. The company still owns Nutella as well as Ferrero Rocher, Kinder and Tic-Tac, however it has remained an entirely family-run business and is not publicly listed. Company chiefs had showed an interest in buying Cadbury last year, to add to its £5.8bn turnover and 21,000 staff, but the British company was eventually taken over by American Kraft Foods.

The FTSE 100 fell shortly after opening this morning as investors fretted over whether Greece would default on its massive debt mountain. The Greek government has denied any suggestion it will need to restructure its loans but the governor of the country's central bank fanned the flames of discontent by warning of a shrinking economy. It led to a new record yield for Greek 10-year bonds while the FTSE 100 closed tonight at 5870.08, dropping 2.1%. It was a similar picture across Europe - with Germany's Dax losing 2.11% of its value. While the jitters over Greece were infectious, the market falls accelerated when Standard & Poor's, a key ratings agency, announced a downgrade for US government debt. S&P cut its outlook for sovereign debt in America to negative from stable due to risks from the country's growing deficit. As a result, Wall Street's Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.5% on opening. S&P warned that while the US has a high-income, diversified and flexible economy, the country's ballooning deficit could offset these positives over the next two years. Investors rushed for gold as a result.
