Totally Does it matter who spent what? As it will either be a level playing field, or an unlevel playing field and so on... Or you may just go in to full wum mode and just got off on another tangent...

No point posting it on N-O though as apparently some over there have already established that they are liars and hypocrites.

I believe NUSC will be releasing something on it soon..

and still spot on you baldy cunt Toys out the pram again eh? Funny like, I don't recall having met you. You fall for it every time No wonder Fop likes it here Your argument gets shown up so you resort to abuse tbh The abuse was to provoke the expected reaction from you. You said pretty much what I expected. My arguement was not shown up in any way, shape or form and certainly not by you, slapheed

We have to win at least 2 out of 4 of those away games. Aye and having only won two away games all season its does not fill you with confidence..

This is getting a bit silly now isn't it? Fergie must have shat on your doorstep i presume. Nope I merely like to present the other side of the arguement. Presumably you're a sweaty? So is that what this is about? His nationality rather than how good a manager he is?

Well what about Aberdeen then? Not exactly an open chequebook there but still built a good team and won the cup winners cup and the league. Done at a time when football was a far more level playing field. Could he do it now? Could he fuck Surely that suggests he could do it on what you say you would like to see, i.e. a level playing field. No because it was a one (or two) off. He didn't repeat it year after year. For example, I'm sure Souness won trophies at Blackburn Are you comparing winning a European trophy, i.e. the Cup Winners' Cup (and beating Real Madrid in the final) when it was still a very prestigious competition and breaking the Old Firm's grip on the Scottish League - winning 3 league titles and 3 SFA Cups (plus one Scottish League Cup) to Souness winning the League Cup with Blackburn now? Don't see how you could say that was a one-off either. He was there about 8 years. It's Scotland though, joke league. How good were the Celtic and Rangers managers back then by the way? Well they had just dominated the league for the 15 years before that...

Scottish Premier Division: 1979-80, 1983-84, 1984-85 Scottish Cup: 1981–82, 1982–83, 1983–84, 1985–86 Scottish League Cup: 1985-86 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup: 1982–83 UEFA Super Cup: 1983 Ok then...

They do and the apathy shown at games is making it appear that way. We can't win tbh as I realise that doing anything at the matches could have a negative effect on the team at a crucial time when we badly need points, however its pissed me off that again for the last two home games we have put shit performances in, came away with point when we badly need 3 (especially at home), but most leave the match content..

MIKE Ashley has rediscovered his passion for running Newcastle United after coming to terms with the hate campaign which looked as though it would force him out of St James’s Park. Ashley’s failure to sell the club before Christmas – and a softening of the opposition to his regime – has persuaded the owner to take on a more hands-on role as he focuses his attention on developing his vision for the future at Newcastle United. The billionaire businessman, according to managing director Derek Llambias, was naturally hurt by the abuse he received following the controversial departure of former manager Kevin Keegan and had begun to believe he would never be able to fulfil his dream of owning a successful football club. Ashley appointed Keegan to give his project a recognisable and popular figurehead, but his regime suffered a monumental public relations disaster when the Newcastle legend quit citing boardroom interference in transfers. It has taken months for Ashley’s presence to be accepted again on Tyneside and there is still widespread opposition to him among fans who remain suspicious about his intentions and sceptical of his business plan. Ashley, though, is back where he wants to be and desperate to prove he can still bring Newcastle the success those supporters crave, according to Llambias. “The passion has always been there from Mike,” said Llambias, who spoke to fans’ representatives at a Supporters’ Panel meeting at St James’s last night. “He has missed it while he has been away, particularly the games. He brought the kids back against Everton, which was good, and he will continue to bring them, he’s back onside. I don’t think he ever left. At the end of the day he was upset. He felt he couldn’t win (after Keegan’s exit). “He’s pumped so much money into something, thought he was going in the right direction. You are thinking you’re getting it right and then all of sudden, out of the blue, you get a curve ball. “You think ‘where did that come from?’ Then you have to start again or you look at it again. We’ve been naive and unfortunate in many ways.” Nevertheless, although Llambias was keen to defend the regime’s failure to convince fans of their good intentions, he conceded it had taken the crisis caused by Keegan’s departure to really understand what is needed to run a football club and the passion which surrounds it. “I think we understand Newcastle United a lot better after what has happened this season,” explained Llambias. “Absolutely, we understand it better as a club and as a business. We are catching on quickly. “I think Mike misses the involvement and getting involved with the crowd. He loved it. He bought Newcastle to enjoy it, not simply as another business. “He’s invested a huge amount of money in it and he doesn’t want to fail.” Llambias was also keen to stress Ashley considers Newcastle to be completely separate from his business empire. “This nothing to do with Sports Direct. It’s his passion and he really wants it to work. It’s difficult when you have people saying ‘Ashley Out’ but we are trying to look forward rather than back,” he said. “There seems to be a misconception that the money NUFC makes goes to Mike, but we won’t take a penny out. All the money that is generated will go back into improving the football club.” http://www.journallive.co.uk/nufc/newcastl...61634-23004131/

You would think so. Though the press and some people would have you think different. Our biggest problem even when we had some inferior players was the fact our midfield and to some extent attack have been so poor at both keeping the ball and giving it away far to cheaply. That (and for me anyway) depending who is playing up front we have never shown the urgency we did when playing with Bellamy up top. With Shola etc we have always invited teams onto us but at least when the little gobshite was playing he chased every ball which actually created a greater urgency throughout the team and was a major part of our success in Robsons time as manager.

But Shepherd has left Strange the bloke who's put in hods of his own cash in gets all the crap, yet the ones who fleeced it and walked away get nowt. Maybe because at times they delivered a decent team, European runs and top 4 finishes. This current lot are trying their hardest to take us down.

How is it good news for those who are already getting money taken from their bank?

What fucking planet do these clowns live on? We know ones a gambler and the other ran casinos but its not a fucking roulette wheel that gets your points total, Its a half decent manager and players..

They are fucking cowboys. So we pay upfront only for those who didnt to get charged the same amount. Fucking pisstake.

I thought this thread was about claims to "fame" not which Z list celebrity shops in the same Sainsbury as you etc..

At least at the Palace game a few years ago Shepherd supplied us with some paper aeroplanes to keep us amused...

Happy Birthday "petal" x

Is it on a record or anything? Just on a bit of paper. @ Magma btw. And probably wasn't even Shola and hes thinking of when his sister was working the last time we played 5's... Shes the fucking spitting image of him.

And Alex is my ITK

Peter, was Leazes walking alongside the two of us after the match? not that I know of mate ...... I've seen PP by the way and knew what he looks like, whether I would recognise him again I'm not sure but I think so. Just messing with Peter as I was ranting all the way from the ground to the car park after the game and whilst I wasnt at the rally Peter reckoned most of what I was saying was said word for word by some of the speakers at the rally...
