agreed 62078[/snapback] To be fair to Wacky, LM had reached this conclusion after his very first appearance for us, IIRC. 62094[/snapback] well spotted

agreed

i understand where you are coming from ON....but the attitude of players is borne out of the managers ....... If he has a positive attitude, and motivates his players to believe they can overcome knock backs, which are all part of the game after all... Or if he makes excuses, and as such instills a mentality in his players that they can underperform so long as they have an excuse ....... It all comes from him mate. Thats why he is so important, and why he is paid so much, and why the buck stops with him

I totally agree. The whole point of signing "turkish players" is racist, and odd, to say the least, but then again, Souness is such a fuckwit nothing surprises me. Personally, I don't give a flying fuck if someone is blue and has pink hair so long as he plays well for Newcastle United.

We all know he is selfish and is talking shite like a little bairn. Though, when reading his interviews as they were published on his website in his mother tongue and as they were translated (first by Teena and later by O-Nut) and published on nufc.com you have to be a fool not to spot the difference of what the tabloid made of of these interviews and what he really said. I remember those times we were taking the piss out of what the tabloids could make out of these interviews... I still want to get pointed to only one interview he did that did Newcastle really harm ... in his time as a Newcastle player. Especially the one when he got banned from the first team against Lisbon. Who was more selfish that time? The manager or Robert? 61720[/snapback] Well I personally can't be arsed to go searching through Laurent Robert's whiny interviews. But I remember him getting on my tits with his victim act on numerous occasions while he was at Newcastle. A bit of professionalism from the bloke wouldn't go amiss. Looks like his career at Pompey is over now too - who's the common denominator in all of this? 61723[/snapback] Souness has been a frequent common denominator himself ..... If you look at the Lisbon game, it is more than possible we would have won that away game, if Bellamy and Robert hadn't been frozen out by fuckwit There's no doubt that Souness put his ego before the club Gemmill. Both of those players have been sold because they clashed with Souness. Neither of those players have damaged or shamed the club anything like Dyer has done, yet he is here simply because he hasn't crossed Souness - yet. 61728[/snapback] Oi! Start your own Souness thread if you want to discuss him! I've already conceded that he needs to go at the end of the season today and you're getting no more out of me than that. We both differ on Bellamy and Robert and we're never gonna agree so let's not even bother with that one... 61730[/snapback]

I don't think anyone is 'Pro-Souness' anymore. Even those of us who were willing to give him time (which is not the same thing as being pro-Souness) have reached the end of our tethers. 61627[/snapback] If you were pro-Souness, then surely it meant you thought he would succeed ? Anyway, I'm just getting more and more tired of him all the time. I just can't wait until he's gone. The few wins when Owens goals saved us are just a blip, there will be a few more of those to come, but he's on borrowed time now.

I agree with that Shearer will be his own man, thats for sure, how good he will be is anyones guess

agreed, especially after spending 50m to improve a top 5 SQUAD. ..... waiting for Gemmil etc to say "give Souness time ... " 61595[/snapback] You sad freak. A thread about Given and straight away you shoe-horn in your stock post. So boring. 61599[/snapback] right on cue ........ True though isn't it 61601[/snapback] Nah, I think maybe he's had enough time tbh. I wouldn't be against replacing him at the end of the season if we can get a top coach in. I'd hate to see us go down the Steve Bruce route though - although his job at Birmingham is definitely in the balance, so the obstacle of compensation might be removed soon. What a horrible fucking thought. 61605[/snapback] at last Shepherd can't possibly appoint Bruce if Birmingham go down, or go close to going down. Can he ???????? I agree, what a horrible fucking thought ! The time is - whenever the right manager becomes available, or immediately. Like Hitzfeld. Like now. Waiting any longer will see the man you should get, tied up to someone else. I doubt that Shepherd will also have the footballing nous to go for Hitzfeld unfortunately, most of us will agree with that. I only hope he surprises us all. Over the years, a few players and people in the game, who left the club, said that Newcastle weren't geared to success, some of them had the chance to do something too ie Gullit, maybe that is why Keegan didn't quite manage it. Whatever that statement means, it would be enlightening to know .......

Chicken Madras, Garlic Pilau rice & Paratha bread 61357[/snapback] In the end, I had a canny few at a private party at the local, let out at about 1.30, and helped myself to some grub of the usual buffet kind

I realised as the thread went on .... however if it were true .... Am just going out now. Gemmills way with figures and words never cease to amaze me however... certainly don't want any of what he has ! 61364[/snapback] Jesus Christ man LM, accept the fact that this one went over your head and don't be so serious about it. It's nothing to be ashamed of ......honest. 61399[/snapback] kettle, black, pot

Yep, it's also Souness' fault Butt is shite for Birmingham. 61217[/snapback] I don't see how that can be, like. Want to explain how you come to that conclusion? 61324[/snapback] 61390[/snapback] Did you post something there Omar

I realised as the thread went on .... however if it were true .... Am just going out now. Gemmills way with figures and words never cease to amaze me however... certainly don't want any of what he has ! 61364[/snapback] Have a good one . Don't get hung up too much with people mate, life's too short. 61367[/snapback] is this how you do it ... the pub is calling ....

hadaway man, post up a photo and let us judge .... get back on the phone is my advice 61342[/snapback] 61350[/snapback] having trouble with words, as well as figures ?

I'm ganning out later.....and I've had 2 home made indian curries this week already ........ What you ordered mate ?????

I've used DVDshrink -- download it ..... There are instructions on the site, so far I've copied a few films but it gets more complicated if the film you want to copy needs cutting and editing if it is larger than the space on your disk. I haven't came across that problem yet, but it does work http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/

years ago I was in that pub in the Bigg Market...used to be called Robinsons or something.....opposite the pig and whistle early evening, I dived into the bog, sat down.......someone came into the next cubicle.....suddenly i saw a right foot with fishnet stockings on poking through the bottom..... Then a voice said "can you pass some toilet paper please"....passed a bit underneath, careful to throw it under, then a "thank you"........ sat there, waiting for her to go, opened the door slowly, no one there and shot out as fast as i could, into the bar, said to my mate "out, no questions, just out sharpish"...laughed like hell when I told him what had happened

Hard to accept that as an excuse really, when you consider that the 19 year old and the 21 year old have looked much more accomplished as defenders. If anything it's a testament to them that their performances have held up alongside Boumsong. Class. He's been proper shit recently though Graeme. 61179[/snapback] You aren't convincing anybody. 61190[/snapback] it would be quite nice to have a proper manager as well
