wellsy

Harper finds Owen but cant get any power in his shot as he is going away from goal.

Milner!!!!! 1-1 Ashley jumping around in the stands! Lashes it across goal and it goes in off the post. I think it was more of a cross then anything.

There your english commentators Faye with a hammy. Beye on.

As the commentator is saying Faye got a yellow and a free kick against him earlier in the game for a similar incident outside the box. Now he doesnt give the penalty for us.

Milner, penalty? Surely? Now i eagerly await the replay!

They took the lead last time we beat them 4-1, right?

1-0 Mackems.... Fucken Faye, caught on the ball and lost it, which led to corner. Should of still had him marked but we had the ball in our half and Faye clumsily gives it away!

Great play by Viduka... sadly his cross was just a tad too high.

Fuck i am hungry!

Joey Barton might have something to answer for after the game....

They had a free kick in a good area but our wall blocks it and we immediately get a corner. The corner is swung in and it lands with Rozehnal who didnt expect it. Unlucky. The game is just going end to end at the moment.

Gee whiz, under the pump! Some great blocks from Harper and Smith have denied the mackems there.

One of them forwarded on emails no doubt just with a title change to aussies instead of yanks et al. Anyways i dont care, i think that was hilarious!

Im off to the TAB to get on N'Zogbia being the first scorer. Huge game, cant wait for tonight!

Toon owner to sit with away fans at derby Newcastle's millionaire owner will join his club's fans in the away end at Sunderland tomorrow because he wants to wear his black and white shirt. Mike Ashley will forego the pleasures of the directors' box at the Stadium of Light and join the 3,000 travelling Newcastle fans, because he did not want to cause problems for the hosts by wearing his top among the red and white supporters. Much has been made during the build-up to the Wear-Tyne derby as to whether Ashley would wear his black and white shirt, which has striker Alan Smith's name on the back, for the game. The sports retail entrepreneur likes to show his affinity to the Newcastle fans by wearing the same replica shirts that helped make his fortune. His Sunderland counterpart Niall Quinn said he did not mind what Ashley wore, but there were concerns from police and club officials that some supporters would find it an inflammatory gesture in a game which is one of British football's most passionate. Newcastle chairman Chris Mort said today: 'Niall understands Mike wants to wear his black and white shirt for this game more than any other, but does not want to cause anyone at Sunderland any problems. 'As a result, Mike has decided to watch tomorrow's game with our fans behind the goal.' Ashley was once thought of as a recluse, but since he bought the club he has repeatedly appeared in the directors' box wearing his team's kit. Earlier this year he was initially refused entry to a Newcastle nightclub because he was wearing the black and white stripes, until a senior member of staff recognised the multi-millionaire and let him in. He bought everyone in the club a drink and tipped the staff heavily. The Blu Bambu club changed its policy, so now customers can wear football tops, as long as they can prove they own the club.

Quite a few take the day off here in Perth and go down to Ascot and just get drunk as a skunk so basically they are taking 2 days off then. Yes it is also a public holiday in Melbourne on that day as well. After all IT IS the race that stops a nation.....

Cheers cob!

Canny photos, do you have these in a wallpaper form there Alex ye ol chap?

Just another day and night here at Toontastic....

Maybe cause there was nothing he could do as we were utter poo... Dont ask me how we manage to lose away games but with the team we have we should be putting in a far better performance then the one we just dished out! We didnt create anything of real note all game and when we did it was through N'Zogbia and through playing the ball to the feet of our forwards. The long balls and hitting the ball into space didnt really work in the first half and im surprised we continued to do it! It was frustrating as we have these skillful players who i am sure have the skills to get around players and pass the ball and create, yet they dont. Oh well there is always next week...

Cacapa scores but is clearly offside... ho hum. 4 minutes added.

Fuck! First touch since coming on and Shane Long has scored, 2-1

1-1 Duberry OG

If you see Chopra's attempted volley during the first half you will see that it could be worse... Besides the fact that Fulham also missed an open goal... Faye off and Milner on.

Chelsea tearing City a new one, 4-0 at the mo. It is these type of games that are going to kill us. Faye, his tackling technique is shocking. He always goes for those 2 footed lunges!
