Park Life

The recap is for people who have forgotten its people trapped on a mysterious island.

KK offerred him come in one day a week for heading practice. Well done Kev.

Basically it would have contd till ManU scored.

He needs to get a proper football job and shut the fuck up.

What does that mean?

That bloke in the bottom left looks familiar I'm sure I've seen him posted on here before? It's Victoria Toon.

Go to the loft and get the AK.

Legend Where is he now tho eh? Playing with Modest Mouse. Who for the record are fucking class. Earlier stuff was better like... I'm glad he's still working. He thought he was going to be Mr Superband after the split. These days guitar playing ain't enough you've got to have a trick and Mozza has more tricks than he knows what to do with.

Its an episode that's a recap.

AvP Requiem. Utter pap.

Lost is like Marmite, you either love it or hate it, I love it, but I am sure they are making it up as they go along, but I still find it enjoyable, it might be worth watching the recap episode rather than watching all the episodes you've missed. Lost is brilliant. Never imagined telly would reach such heights. Jericho and The Wire are my other two addictions.

You're just a guy looking for answers right?

You're demented Nicos. We'll lose the next 3 games straight and then it will be down to beating Blackburn at home in March. April is a good month reg fix and we might nick 3 wins. Who the fuck told you that? The guy from the newspaper? It's called an opinion Dave. I hope to god we do get summat from the Boro game cause there are 2 very tough ones after that.

Tbf to the press it is rather a strange bunch of characters and they have been given rather spurious titles.

Of course once a club starts to show serious ambition and organisation (often beginning with a top tier manager that players associate with success) good purchases attract incrementally better purchases. But we haven't really shown this we've bought questionably in recent history and in dribs and drabs, with no real sense of direction (high manager turnover?). Slowly but surely and perhaps in the form many will find hard to palette I feel some kind of direction is taking shape.

Good post. We need to spend big if MA is at all serious. I don't think we will spend big, I think 2/3 good players will be added. It will come down to how much power KK has over the owner.

He's just starting his head games early is all. What he says is "true" (as much to him as anyone else - would he have the same success anywhere else, or if he came back after 11 years to ManUre? Probably not), but really it's just irrelevant. There's no mystical power or universal truth saying Keegan can or cannot be successful (as, more, or less) than he was before... it just depends on so many things. He doesn't see us as any kind of threat. I would imagine he's planning to make it stay that way too. We do that ourselves.

Newcastle's Wise men just hangers-on By Michael Henderson Last Updated: 1:37am GMT 01/02/2008 Have your say Read comments What do you mean, Dennis Wise isn't the right man for Newcastle United? Now that Fred Karno has gone to that great circus in the sky, Lord Charles has mislaid his monocle, and Sooty can no longer work with Sweep owing to 'irreconcilable differences', the cabbies' pal is just about the only man whose feet are big enough to fill the boots that Mike Ashley has made for him. Football fans' forum Newcastle homepage Experience, aptitude, suitability, promise: all the qualities one looks for in scholarship candidates may be found within his lean and hungry frame. He took Leeds United down last year, but has apparently grown tired of day-to-day management (after all, he's been doing it so long) and would prefer to return to the South-East, particularly if some kind employer trebles his salary. And Newcastle fans wonder why so many people the length and breadth of the kingdom are hooting at the folk who run their club! Dennis Wise: Newcastle's new executive director (football) The joke may not be shared by Kevin Keegan, a king who must realise that his crown and sceptre offer little protection against the courtiers who occupy such important positions. What, he may wonder, are we doing with an 'executive director' (Wise's title) who is responsible for spotting and recruiting players (from an office in London) when he was restored to the throne two weeks ago with a promise of absolute power? It had to be absolute, otherwise he wouldn't have returned. What are they doing with a London friend of Ashley's, one Tony Jimenez, filling the unspecified role of 'fixer', not to mention a 'technical co-ordinator' who may have something to do with scouting? It's clear as an old-fashioned pea-souper. The game changes, but change does not always betoken improvement. When Keegan made his name at Liverpool three decades ago, Bill Shankly had no use for co-ordinators or executive directors. Whenever he wanted to discuss something, a player to bring in or one to ship out, he talked it over with Bob Paisley in the time it took to sup a brew. Football, for those men, was in the blood, and the records of Shankly and Paisley are there for all to see, just as the feats of Busby and Ferguson are available for consideration. And those of Cullis, Nicholson, Catterick, Revie and Clough. They were - in Ferguson's case, still are - football men, which is not necessarily the best thing to be in the modern game. advertisement Ashley made his mint from flogging sportswear. Jimenez, we are told, sells properties. Expensive ones. Lots of 'em. They belong to, and understand, the world of finance, and evidently like to hang around football clubs, and the people who play for them, as many rich folk do. It does not follow that they know the first thing about football. Indeed the recruitment of Wise to such a senior position suggests that Ashley's knowledge of the game could be written in capital letters on the back of a Metrolink ticket. His offer to Jimenez suggests that he wants a friend to hold his hand. These are not steps of a confident man; more like steps in the dark, undertaken in faith. Newcastle fans like to think of their club as a big one, and they are entitled to their opinions. Stand back from the canvas, however, and the picture looks very different. What outsiders see right now is a club run by London-based business people for whom football appears to be a fashion accessory, where jobs are given to pals, and pals of pals. Two weeks after the restoration, Keegan may not be a wiser monarch. But, where the manners of the modern game are concerned, he is considerably better informed.

What did you make of the Giles Barnes offer? I don't know Parky as I'm not speculating on figures like everybody else. Oh. Has there actually been official combination that it was £1.5 million, or is this just a figure from the press? I'm being honest here as I've just been glossing over most of the posts in the past few days. Well Jewell said the offer was derisory or something and yes he was quoted by the BBC. Are you a fucking Law Lord or summat?..Will you be needing posts in triplicate before you deign to comment and will the EU special affairs committee have to be informed of your relpy? You big flounce.
