  1. The ratio changes, but we weren't pulling off Rooney, Robinho, Berbatov type huge signings while on the up, however you remember it. On your own terms, we were spending between half and three quarters of what other top English clubs had paid when we were up in third and sixth. careful
  2. It was on Ch4 > http://www.channel4.com/science/microsites...ophe/index.html and can be downloaded from http://www.uknova.com/wsgi/torrent/view/69186
  3. It has to be, thats too ridiculous to be made up!

    Health

    Aye, hope all goes well mate. A beer next Tuesday will take your mind off things.
  5. Very good ant. That wasn't my point. i was highlighting weaknesses..... areas of improvement (that he hasn't sorted out). Thanks for calling me a mong as well. I appreciate that. No problem anytime i'm sure shay would've spent many an hour working on his delivery if he had the luxury, thankfully i'm happy he didn't and spent it practicing keeping the goals conceded down to a minimum hopefully he took a look at Cacapa, Boumsong, Taylor, Bramble etc over the years and thought what to do what to do, i know i'll keep at the shot stopping practice, lets face it the balls going be coming back this way no matter where i put it. "drivings for show, puttings for dough" and when you've got someone whose as good at making saves as Given is, kicking the ball is the least of your worries can you honestly say when your talking about how good a keeper is, like Schemical or Buffon you'd reminisce about passes he made to highlight their talent? or can you even remember many of them? couldn't do me a list of great keepers who were renowned for their kicking game could ya? which doesn't include chilavert just because he hit freekicks I have to disagree, maybe we'd see less of his shotstopping skills if he managed to punt it to a Toon player once in a while rather than always to the opposition who then break. Yes in the grand scheme of things its way down the list but frankly as has already been pointed out its a definite flaw.
  6. I actually went back through youtube and the like to view the stuff from when KK signed as I was certain Id seen Ashley or Mort actually state that KK had a blank cheque. Have to admit though that I couldnt find it from the KK unveiling, maybe it was some other interview. Maybe he did have one, blank, as in unsigned that is.
  7. Some makem who played for them was twatted on the pitch here back in 92/93ish.
  8. Fuck me I should put the lottery on, Im on a roll here. This is clearly JFK bigging up the asking price (not that Given needs any inflation).
  9. I know I put it in another thread but Im creating this one because I so so hope that come February/ March people are on this thread laughing and calling me a cock because I was so wrong. So heres my predictions, lets hope they are all (or at least some) are wrong. January Transfer window. Out Owen (Man City, Spurs, Everton all sniffing), N'Zogbia (Arsenal bidding allegedly) Martins or Viduka (but probably Martins as he'll raise more cash). Given (Arsenal bidding allegedly) Geremi Barton (to date none of these contracts plus Shola, Butt, Harper and others have been agreed) Taylor (Arsenal again, didnt see that one coming) In £2 - 3million keeper (Sheffield United's Paddy Kenny for 5m so I may end up being out here) £3million forward 2 other cheap foreign shite players. Kinnear will be given an extension to the end of the season. Neither of the £10million players that JFK spoke about last week will appear. Both have now been reported to have told us where to go. No sale will take place before the end of the season as any prospective buyers will not want the risk of relegation. (Confirmed as now taken off market) Communications Nothing will come out of the club officially. (Other than "club off market" statement this is spot on) JFK will however announce at least once a week for the next 4 weeks that he has his eye on this player, that player and a couple of others, that the chairman is backing him on the transfer front and that nobody is going nowhere. (I would say this has pretty much gone to form) Then from Christmas onwards he will go quiet and nothing other than "speculation that Owen/Martins/Given (*delete as applicable) is going nowhere." will be heard. (hmmm not sure here, he could be continuing the bullshit) Then on February 6th he will want to resign but won't because he has nowhere else to go, as a result those that slagged off Keegan for walking will slag off JFK for not going. Fans People will continue to slate the NUSC and half of A/N other board will blame all of the above on NUSC and the fact that a couple of fans made banners before the Hull game. One old bloke who should know better will re-state that the parading of a "cockney mafia out" banner at Hull was the lowpoint of his entire time supporting the Toon while Baggy will continue to state that MA is the best chairman this club has ever had because "hes invested quarter of a billion of his own money into the club".(Taken as read frankly) Current Laugh at Pud level: 30/12/08 - Absolute bastard silence.
  10. Yup, I made my predictions yesterday and I stand by them even more so now that this statement has come out. We are totally and utterly fucked.
  11. coming on another teams message board when nobody cares
  12. We're worth fuck all in the Championship. If Ashley really wants to get the best deal then he needs to keep us in the division. If we're hovering on the brink no-one is going to buy us, they'll just wait to see if they can pick us up for a few quid the season after. Never mind £450m, I think you are realistically looking at £50-60m if we were relegated. And that's not representative of any inherent value. I know that, you know that and even Ashley knows that BUT I do honestly believe that he is arrogant and stupid enough to believe that he can ride it out on the logic that there will be 3 sides worse than us. I keep coming back to it but this bloke is a serious gambler and I reckon hes willing to gamble on us staying up with an even worse squad than we have now.
  13. And this one..... http://www.britishblogs.co.uk/categories/p...hirt-lettering/
  14. We already have. Where are all the protests? They disappeared, just as predicted, right after the Hull game. Where's NUSC and what are they up to? It's easy for me to criticise from where I am, before anyone says that, but I did say this would happen. We tried and were shouted down by those that said "let him be, hes said hes selling, whats the use you're only making it worse". Im not sure anyone could have made it worse. I feel like Leazes must do, saying time after time over the last month or so that no sale would materialise and we need to be ready for the future. Now its looking like I was right and I take no pleasure in being so, I would love to be proven wrong on this, love people to be putting replies to posts Ive made pointing out just how wrong I was but Im afraid its not going to happen. Question is, will I be right on MA's next move? ie sell, sell, sell and if replacements are sought then they'll be sub standard cheap foreign imports who will have no concept or spirit for the relegation dogfight that we have ahead of us. So heres my predictions, lets hope they are all (or at least some) are wrong. January Transfer window. Out Owen, N'Zogbia (already looking probable) Martins or Viduka (but probably Martins as he'll raise more cash). Given Geremi Barton In £2 - 3million keeper £3million forward 2 other cheap foreign shite players. Kinnear will be given an extension to the end of the season. Neither of the £10million players that JFK spoke about last week will appear. No sale will take place before the end of the season as any prospective buyers will not want the risk of relegation.

Mystic Pud has spoken, be afraid be very afraid.
  15. Why the fuck would he come here from the richest club in the land? cos we're going places. He wont get to play the teams we will next season if he stays at City. Bristol, Coventry, Barnsley, Derby
  16. fuckme!!! who would have thought that would happen?!?!?!?!
  17. Exactly... hard to understand how any prick can defend the Fat Cunt's obviously over-inflated asking price. There's no way he'll get more than what he paid for it because of the current financial climate and because he's fucked the club up good and proper - it's also hard to understand how anyone could possibly believe anything the fat, lying wanker says because he's already proven himself to be a cunt of the highest order. To be honest I'd expect Kinnear to be given run of the club now until the end of the season, I can't see Fat Cunt selling the club before then (if ever, with his delusions) and there's not going to be any money coming in to bolster things so it probably best to try and make something from what little we have be inducing this 'siege mentality' that JFK seems to be up for. I know it is isnt it?, lets ask one. Baggio?
  18. Quantum of Solice good honest action flick but Bond is not seeming like Bond these days. Firstly there were no gadgets (which meant no dialogue with Q), no car (he had an Aston at the start but that was in the pre-credits bit only). Hes also lost the quickfire witty comments that Bond is famous for. I like Daniel Craig as an actor and as a Bond but somehow I think the writers are trying to make him too realistic and part of the fun of JB (imo) was the fact you'd watch it thinking "aye reet, course you just did that, its obvious that you would jump off a 10 storey building without looking landing on the tail of a plane with your magnetic underpants".
  19. Is your bloke a celebrity bender? If so my guess is Christopher Biggins? You got it. Nah, if he was a celeb we wouldn't be wedged into a one-bed flat in bloody Lewisham. Theres two of you? two men? sharing a one bed flat? how does that work then?
  20. Ive just heard a rumour that Capello is jacking in England and coming to manage us, its because Bill Gates is taking us over and has decided to pump 30billion in for new players. Seemingly, we'll be spending 1billion of that by buying Man United and moving them up here, then we'll start restructuring, hes already bought up Eldon Square so he can expand the ground down there, allegedly its going to hold 500k fans (oh and we'll all be getting cars as well with our season tickets.).
