know nothing about this united for newcastle.....Is it just some bloke? Regardless, nice to see some communication going on and the points made basically back up what we know that its going to be a steady eddy approach back to Europe.

By selling star players and re-investing? There's a big difference between selling Berbatov and getting players like Van Der Vaart as opposed to selling Carroll and being told that life after is in the form of best and lovenkraands. I don't have much confidence that we are going to see an Andy Cole for Les Ferdinand deal going down here, do you? More chance of the likes of carlton fucking cole arriving Another Tiote and Ben Arfa would be canny though, yes?

Suppose the wage bill thing in reality is all about timing. Do you "smash it" to keep a Carroll and then have the knock on effect with the rest of the squad, or do you let the star men go and look for new stars or players that are more fitting with your current status and inch up the league. I know what I would like in ideal world land, but Im sure the other scenario is the realistic one we will be following for a few years.

Cheeky fucker He's definitely not a mackem though Personally I like the top left corner. Great picture of the ginge dad and son and the proper grandad tash above the Steve Wraith look-a-like.

I sympathise with him rather than condemn him, its not easy writing things and having deadlines. The Chronicle has to write positively about the club too. The real sympathy goes to those who take it in. Thing is though leazes, there ARE plenty of fans out there who WILL be pissed off that a player that has been so backed by the fans is openly talking about and courting other clubs. Last year he wanted to spend his career here, a few weeks ago it was a case of waiting til we're safe and now he's off. Fair enough if you are going to fuck off in the summer for a CL club, but dont start the romance with the next set of fans in February.

How tall are you and what weight are you, Sugartits?

At the swimming baths today and a tall 60 year old well toned old man walked past...... Felt ashamed of my moobs. Hitting the treadmill shortly. -
Cheers, just expect you to know these things I was googling and I think the common one seems to be 3 tbsp olive oli, 2 tbsp lemon juice, salt and pepper. I'll give it a bash. Nice big bed of wild rocket, gently caressed in the above dressing and topped with a gentlemans portion of smoked haddock. Half a granary bun on the side for company. Absolutely lushville.

thats what you wear to work Stevie? i thought you were in construction or construction management? fuck i'd end it all if i had to wear a suit to work, collared shirt and jeans is all that is required in BC, but then we're more relaxed over here. I really miss me nice suits, flashy next ties and shoes and me cuff links ...... Could always be the best dressed taxi driver in town I suppose. I remember thinking Id fucking arrived when I progressed from a nylon tie to a silk one

I wonder how a dis-passionate manager, keen to improve the overall squad views Enrique. While he may appreciate a good player, how much emphasis would he weigh against having a very good left back as opposed to a decent left back and 15 million to add to his 35 million transfer war chest. How important is one position over another. For instance I would be far more devastated to lose Barton, Ben Arfa or Tiote than I would Enrique. Where does the importance of a left back come in the pecking order of the team? Surely its way down the bottom along with the right back position. Im not by any means trying to justify the sale of Enrique as I would rather keep him. (even on the wane), Im just trying to get inside a managers head rather than a fans and consider how they would examine it.

OF course I appreciated it you stupid cunt. BUT WE DID NOT CAPITALISE ON IT, and so are now back in the "second tier" (which is better than what we've been before), there is no magic wand to get back. The failure to maintain Champions league football is what killed us and THAT happened on FFS's watch. I agree the Halls and Shepherd WERE the best owners we had EVER, but the slip had started because we tried and we fucking failed, the slip became a landslide which thankfully has stopped and we're on the way back. Even Liver-fucking-pool have to balance their transfer activity, If Chelsea don't move for Torres, Carroll is still a Newcastle player. But at £35 million I'd snap anyone's hand off for the twat (and he is a grade A twat). You cannot say with certainty the money wont be reinvested, same as I can't say it will. The summer will tell. The only way I can see your vision of progress happening is for us to find a rich arab under a rock who wants to throw money away, and THAT just isnt going to happen. I feel heartily sorry for my two lads to be honest, they've grown up thinking NUFC is the KK/SJH/FFS at the peak version as a right (as you seem to), sadly it's not and never has been, we had our best ever shot at it and we failed, the landscape's changed now and getting back, unless these rule changes bite and our club size actually would have an effect, isn't going to happen, get used to it. Absolutely spot on post that. Pretty much on the money.

Just found the online menu and it says served with a rocket salad and lemon dressing. Would that just be lemon and olive oil perhaps (types another stupid question)

Na, I knew it was a stupid thing to ask as I was typing it. I'll have to give them a ring.

One method is to leave in a huff and sign up again months later pretending to be someone else.

As you know a lot I was in that Italian in Eldon garden yesterday and had a smoked salmon and crayfish tail salad. Anyway, the salad bit was basically green leaves tossed in some lovely oily dressing. I know this is vague, but its the same sort of thing most of then use. I have discovered today its not balsamic vinegar.....Any ideas?

I know , asked our lass to get me some proper stuff but she forgot so bottom of the fridge job.
