Jesus Wept, how low have they sunk :mellow:

 

and anything claiming 7500 for a 45 minute training session is a low attendance is a clueless moron.

 

That's exceptional.

Are you really as stupid as you act or are you training for a film or some such?

I have no doubt in my mind that Danny would jump on the Newcastle band wagon were we to get into the CL again.

 

There's a fine line between love and hate. Danny loves us, he's obsessed, it's why he's here instead of a Spurs board. :mellow:

 

He even posts from his phone sometimes ;)

I’ve been unable to find the bit were the authors explain how 7,500 Geordies were duped. Can anybody spot it?

They were probably consumed by bitterness and therefore couldn't concentrate. :mellow:

 

I would also bet that a lot of that ''article'' is pure fiction.

 

Most notably the incredibly clichéd ''vox pop''. ;)

GEORDIE MESSIAH STAGES PATENTLY TRANSPARENT PR RUSE, 7,500 DUPED

 

Newcastle United's players found out exactly what their fans think of

them this morning when a disappointing crowd of just 7,500 gullible

Geordies turned up for an open first-team training session at St

James' Park. With the sun shining, the schools broken up for Easter

and unemployment figures on Tyneside approaching a 20-year high,

experts had been predicting a record attendance for the pathetically

transparent propaganda exercise that traditionally follows the

appointment of each new Geordie Messiah. But despite the recent

installation of local legend Alan Shearer as The Chosen One, a

disillusioned Geordie public voted with their feet, opting to ignore

the overpaid wasters who have dragged the club into the Premier

League relegation mire and head for the city's pubs, betting offices

and tattoo parlours instead.

 

Despite the low turn-out, the reaction of those who did turn up at St

James' Park was surprisingly positive considering how shabbily

they've been treated in recent years. "A lot iv people, spehully

bairns, cannit afford the exorbitant ticket prices fo' Newcassel

matches, see it's canny fo' them tuh be yeble tuh cum alang tuh the

groond, see their heeroos in the flesh an' shoot abuse at them,"

enthused one overweight topless man who appeared so down on his luck

he'd literally lost the shirt from his backs. "Way-aye man," chorused

his Brown-drinking friends, who had also gone shirtless for the day

in an act of solidarity.

 

Although coach Iain Dowie has overseen first-team training sessions

since the duo's appointment, it was the notoriously publicity-shy

Shearer who barked the orders on a day that, coincidentally, hundreds

of journalists and TV cameras were on hand to record proceedings.

Once Dowie had marked out the pitch with training cones, his boss got

stuck into the five-a-side, even going so far as to score and wheel

away with one arm in the air - a trademark celebration a bewildered

Fabricio Coloccini mistook for an offside appeal. Sadly for Shearer,

his goal was too little too late and to nobody's great surprise, the

training cones recorded a facile 8-1 victory over the assorted

first-teamers pitted against them.

 

"I said to the boys, 'Where else would you get thousands of fans

turning up to watch training when the team is third bottom?',"

Shearer told reporters as he wound up his latest exercise in

self-promotion. Where else? Let's see, Alan. All over Italy and

Spain, not to mention in many South American countries. What's more,

those fans are sensible enough to arrive armed to the teeth with

insulting banners, baskets of rotten fruit and iron bars.

 

It's from the Guardian's daily footie round-up 'The Fiver' which is generally pretty funny and takes the piss out of everyone and everything so is nothing to get upset about. We (and rightly so) get the piss taken out of us a lot but it is generally light-hearted. This one was written by Barry Glendenning however who is a bit of a humourless twat (as anyone who followed his letters to True Faith will realise). The Fiver is generally funnier than this, particularly when Glendenning has nothing to do with them.

:mellow: Low fucking turn out for a training session??? Do you seriously think anyone besides kids, and sad long term sick/doleites are going to watch a load of wank footballers dribbling round cones?!?! 7,500? Whoever wrote this should be sacked, it's such lazy journalism it's not true. Besides 7,500 kids, families etc, is only 2,000 less than what Tottenham were getting in the league in 1986 at certain league games.

It's tongue-in-cheek btw.

That Express column Cunty B posted wasn't too far off.

Meant to be funny too, I think :mellow:
