Conversely if he was going to talk about something serious, I don't think mobile phone would be appropriate. Also why would there be the urgency of a Friday evening meeting for something that could be settled at any time - surely the game tomorrow is the imperative.

Ambani: "The club's in turmoil - you can fuck off" Ashley: "What if I could get Kev back?" Ambani: "Hmm...."

Being ludicrously imaginative for a moment - maybe he's selling up/getting investment in and the deal somehow involves Keegan coming back.

The Prophet Mohammed as an outsider with divine intervention.

Feel free to disagree but did anyone else think the bloke's foot didn't touch John Terry for their goal (though probably a free-kick) and that he should be held up as the odious cheat he is for claiming injury to the ref and going as far as to have "treatment" from the physio?

Perfect!!!

Beckham should be absolutely shot with shit for introducing the repeated use of "you know" into current speak.

I see France won which as I understand it means Deschamps won't be under pressure to take that job. I'm warming to the idea of him coming here (now that I've realised we have to get on with life however painful). Anyone with an insight into his CV/track record/temperament/style?

I've had 2, one was great, the other one was pissed. Genuinely never met/seen a black woman that I find attractive, not even Bouncey and her crew. What? It's true, just like I tend not to fancy girls with ginger hair. I'm failing to see your problem Tori Amos? Nicole Kidman? I thought Ron Atkinson was bad when he wrote off 700m chinese women but all blacks and all redheads/ginges is very fussy.

Anyone with an IQ over 50 knew that was a complete load of , at least with this one no one is entirely sure, just almost certainly sure. There was a lot of hysteria but there was also a shit load of work done in the run up to it which actually prevented problems.

Alex you needlessly implied that the west end was the only shit hole in the NE - Stevie can't have that ST doesn't haven't anywhere near as shit as the west end of course but we're mackems which is a whole different level of deprivation.

FYP

Lad at work confirms what Stevie said - would have to be seriously shit not to win the league in Turkey given their financial dominance - did once but failed last year - champions league was good however and made him liked.

although statistically, he may be correct. It's one of those things (a bit like immigration) that we should be able to discuss without going all Rebrov - there are too many black kids who commit crime and some of it may be cultural but discussing the real reasons is okay imo.

Tottenham is a crime-ridden shithole though so the warning isn't too far off - I'd argue due to poverty and neglect rather than because of dark skins.

I've no objection to not going stupid but think the least we should expect is for all net income via STs and TV to be spent.

What we need is more people like me - I buy an ST and fuck all else - I've never bought anything in the ground (anyone who can't last 2 hours without a pie and pint is a fucking idiot) and I haven't owned a strip since I was about 14. It would be interesting to know what proportion of total income is made up by the "lesser" things people could affect. I think disillusionment will take care of the non ST part of the crowds until xmas.

There seems to be a few posters on N-O who don't/won't see what the problem is. Even before this shit I felt extremely uneasy about him working for us and the lad who I work with who is a Blackburn fan understands it perfectly. There are a lot of players you build up a dislike for over the years - hell even Gus Poyet - but I somehow feel that now he isn't playing I can set the dislike aside. That is not the case with WIse - he was an exceptionally nasty piece of shit as a player and the animosity continues. I can;t think of many others I feel the same way about (though one or two more Wimbledon players come to mind). I've said before that if Keegan had been brought in as a sort of Venables to save us then leave in May allowing the appointment of a long term coach I would have been quite happy. I realise now that would still have left the odious little twat in place which is still not right.

Who reports to who though? (I agree)

Didn't he win the league in 07? I work with a Fener fan so will get his opinion tomorrow.

Unfortunately 19 games of football is all you pay for - there are no attached promises of anything else. ..or 57. Did anyone read the smallprint as to what happens if we get relegated?

I was saying that to a mate at Arsenal last week - just say we had gone for Berbatov, I wouldn't have been surprised if Keegan would have persuaded him to come - unlikely maybe but a chance. Note also that also the Schweinsteiger stories don't involve Keegan either - another wasted chance. They used Keegan's affinity with the fans as a PR weapon but couldn't see another of his talents was going to waste.

I'm beginning to think the stupid cunts have made the massive mistake of thinking all of the fans are as thick as the SJP protesters.
