Kevin Carr's Gloves

Hi Meenz. I had an accident in Lemgo / Detmold in 1988. It was in the papers and wondered if there was anyway of finding the article? meenzer said you were the daddy Isegrim.

FACT! Only 2 things on earth visible from space, The Great Wall of China and the Byker Wall. I'd suggest Wallsend Forum, and inside Wacky's lasses fanny - a spacious picturesque landscape only spoilt by the whiff of a harbour wall. 193556[/snapback] MYTH!!! The great wall of China isn't visible from space.

Wow Gemmil is this true. I haven't heard anything about this at all.

Her daughter has been with her on the bike ride across America. She was on the news the other day reading bits of her diary that she's been keeping whilst she's been with her mam. 193491[/snapback] In that case I withdraw my remarks. I just thought about how I would feel if I knew I was going to lose my mam and she just went all over the world doing these things. And were all her children there. She has three.

Actually although I admire her tenacity I would say she is scared rather than brave. She has a young family who are not getting to see her when they will probably need her most. It seems to me she is scared of spending time with them.

Is God managing the oldies again?

Chelsea complaining he refused to play. ESSIEN ESSIEN ESSIEN ESSIEN ESSIEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He drove my Friends wedding car (his wife works at FAI). She got him to right a card for me it say's "To Simon from the guy who put the ball in the makems net"

So how is LM going to defend this. It's al McKeag's fault. Maybe blame it on SOuness. No wait a minute because it's got something to do with accounting I know. Gemmil it's your fault.

The Porsche Simon. It would have a fishing rod rack.

Chin up girl. Speaking from experience there is always a bright side. You need to find a puppy to stroke.

You need to go to the powerhouse. They love young lads in there. You might even get a free mouthfull of drink from some of them.

Yes. And I don't think this thread is remotely OTT either. Didn't toonraider have the hots for steve Irwin btw? No wonder she's gutted. 192533[/snapback] Feel quite upset actually, (in as far as you can without really knowing someone) But life is shit at the moment anyway, so this news just about finished me off today Brilliant guy, so caring and vibrant Why do the good people get taken from this world and the scum survive? 192688[/snapback] You OK Toonraider?

Firstly William Gallas was taken on before the Abramovich's millions went into CHelsea and didn't have a great contract. Since then he has never had a pay rise and saw all around him getting way more than he does. I believe he was the lowest paid member of the first team squad. He asked for new contracts and was blanked on several occasions. That is why he moved and if I was in the same position so would I. Secondly Chelsea have said they released this statement because of the constant attacks by Gallas on Mourinho in the press. What attacks I haven't read one interview with him slagging off Gallas. I think Mourinho is losing the plot and is getting a serious god complex. Obviously going against him is blasphemy which should result in eternal damnation.

Shame mate, but going by your username - it suggests you remember the old board, and so would have seen quite a bit and have a different perspective, and so if you seriously think the current board are so bad, THAT is embarrassing. 192697[/snapback] No what is embarrassing is your insistance to ignore the facts about fat fred. Apart from a brief hiatus under SBR we have been in decline since he took over. Your refusal to accept that and try to go on about the McKeags and such is just stupidity. The McKeags etal were bad directors but football was different then FFS I remember playing some clubs in the old 2nd division which were an embarrasment (Grimsby Town song). But that does not excuse what fat fred has done. And you are just his mouthpiece at the moment. I would say looking at him with rose tinted specs. But to be honest the way you spout sh*t about him I think your specs are just made of roses.

I was wondering if there was a case for putting some sort of light metal plate at the front of wetsuits, that pretty much answers it. 192268[/snapback] He was probably diving in his shorts short sleeved shirt and boots anyway.

192136[/snapback] I support his comments.

Does anyone pay any attention to anything Leazes writes anymore. He is just turning into Shepherds mouthpiece. It's becoming embarrasing TBH.

Unfortunately I have heard sewing machine similie includes the size of the needle too.

RIP Steve. He was an absolute star and will be missed by all animal lovers the world over.

My ony hope s that Titus breaks Bellamy's knee. Other than that we will get spanked like an accountant at a whore house.

I have been considering this takeover talk for some time. I would like to at this time say I hate FFS. I have always wondered how a consortium were expecting to make money from NUFC. They are a hedge fund and that is their raison d'etre. Then I heard something on radio 5 when listening to the Argentina / Brazil game. They were talking about the Tevez / Javier signings for West Ham. They were talking about how in South America sometimes the clubs didnt own the registrations for the palyers. In some cases they had sold them to finance companies to raise money. It was at this point a thought struck me. Would it be possible for a company to take over at NUFC. Sell all of the players to a second arm of it's finance corp at a severely reduced rate. Then Divest itself of the club recouping most of it's outlay but sitting with approx 80 Million pounds (Guestimate including all players) worth of players it can sell to anyone at anytime? Maybe the accountants can fill me in on this.

Still 8/1 looks an even better bet now

Can't see where I am being blinkered, in fact I think the majority of people on here who seem either oblivious to the financial position of the club - through a lack of intelligence or just because they are deluded enough to think we can just spend what we like - are the blinkered ones. And for what its worth, as a squad player for a small fee Sibierski is alright - bearing in mind again our budget - whereas my main worry is Martins because if he flops, that is another 10m quid down the plug, and this is the type of signing who has created the position that we are in now ie Luque, Boumsong, and many others before those over previous years. 190617[/snapback] Nobody is oblivious to the financial position of the club. Nobody is saying we only spent £15m, why not more. What we're saying is, why not spend the £15m more prudently? That's a question Freddy Shepherd should be asking too. But prudent spending robs him of his Hollywood signings and requires him to actually put some hard graft in helping his manager to establish a transfer plan. Why do that when you can fly by the seat of your pants and then just say "One thing you can't level at us is that we're boring." He actually thinks that this is an asset of ours ffs!? 190624[/snapback] Ok Gem, we'll go and buy 7 x 2m pound players, and see where that gets you, if you dont' want "hollywood" signings .... plenty of those over at the SOS mate. 190675[/snapback] Sorin, Campbell, Trabelsi, Roberts - that's £2.5m for ya. Leazes, seeing that we're the 5th best club in the country, would anything less than 5th this season be seen as a failure of Freddie, or of Roeder? 190692[/snapback] Wouldn't touch Campbell. Jason Roberts for 2.5m ? I don't think so. Anyway, I think I have stated that I believe the club's main problem was up front, and has been addressed. Of course, if shithead Luque had justified his fee, it wouldn't have been so important. Time to let some clueless fookwits on here to agree with each other I think ..... 190699[/snapback] So if Martins doesn't work out who will you blame. When a company underperforms year on year you must look at the top management of that company and that is FFS. You right about there being at least one clueless fookwits on here though. Although I have only seen one.

possibly not, but with a smalll squad, and having already shelled out 15-16m quid. Thats the point. We knew, or should have done, that the Souness legacy was this, or at least some of us said so. We would be better off if Bellamy and Robert were still here, agreed ? And considering he wanted them out so desperately we got 4m quid for the 2 of them, who can possibly defend THAT ? 189826[/snapback] You do understand the Chairmen has to OK all sales right. Souness didn't do it behind the fat ones back. 189832[/snapback] you do understand that chairman are supposed to allow their managers to run the playing side of the club, right ? So, if he DID veto any transfers on playing grounds, which appears to be what you are indicating you want, you would have a lot to say wouldn't you ? Seriously, I have my doubts, it seems the vast amount of people on here don't seem to understand this ..... nor the financial state of the club, mostly brought about by the last manager, despite it being as clear as the glass in front of your face. 190603[/snapback] In any business it is commonplace for the head of the business to have final say on major investments. In some cases that investment is their idea. In others not.Responsible management dictates that this has to happen. Responsible chairmen also employ responsible and well qualified staff. That is their duty, not only to the business but to the shareholders. He has failed on both counts. I accept he needs to give managers the ability to decide but he has gone into this issue far too recklessly and it is absolutely nobodies fault bit his own that the 'bottomless pit' is no more. 190614[/snapback] He hasn't failed. We have been the 5th top club in the country over the past decade, and appeared regularly in europe, filling the ground, and buying major international players. There are 86 clubs who have done worse than us, including one 12 miles down the road. Since this board took over this club in 1992 they have picked it up and established it back to one of the top clubs in the country. Fact. I'm not interested in stupid skyboy type views. 190671[/snapback] Again the since 1992 crap. FFS took over in 1997 and has presided over the worst of the since 1992 times. Honestly LM the more you go on the bigger joke you become.
