Howaythelads 0 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Yep, and I've been proved completely wrong. Shame really, bit of a panic buy IMO. 61069[/snapback] Quick, put it in the gold section. Or whatever you call the place for the one-off, momentous posts. 61073[/snapback] In the same place where I said Carr and Butt would be shite? 61074[/snapback] Butt wasn't always shite. Didn't you notice those few good games he had before Robson was sacked and before he realised the club now had a shite manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then you being the man who reads everything scrupulously you already knew that didn't you? 61102[/snapback] The monkey defending the organ grinder. Better keep an eye on those blokes.

In his first 3 games he looked quite handy, and I was beginning to think I may have been wrong. Wasn't though was I. Souness' fault Butt is shite then is it?

manc-mag 1 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Fair play to those who want to write articles though. I think a fair few of them are taking themselves too seriously, but I suppose if you put up a piece of writing in the public domain then you have to expect both praise and criticism. I'm shite at this diplomacy like. 60057[/snapback] Actually, you are brilliant at diplomacy, unlike most people on here. Those article are absolute crud 90% of the time! 60070[/snapback] The one with Shepherd as Mussolini and Newcastle as a dictatorship was sensational! 60078[/snapback] I think I read part of that one. Was it by GazP? 60085[/snapback] I think you'll find his full title was Gaz Pearson Writer Newcastle-Online 60086[/snapback] Think he just got a text read out on Football Focus. Summat about George Best RIP. Didnt give him his full title though so can't be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Where's Baron Von Fat and his 'Hey guys, whats going on in this thread?' when you need him? 30 pages. Hmmmm. For what it's worth, I can't get on to N-O when I'm home so I can't really comment on how good/bad it is. This place does for me. Rob once compared this place to a gentlemen's club (albeit one with laydees) and I suppose that is what it's like. It's a bit like being in a pub with your mates; I can sit and listen or I can join in when I want to. Although I have yet to meet any of the fuckwits on here, I feel as though I know them and enjoy their company. It is nice to be able to switch the fuckers off though at times! Glancing through the pages (too much to read for me, I'm afraid) someone mentioned the big articles? They put me off something rotten on the old board. Some folk enjoyed posting long texts of what they thought were intellectual, well thought out hardened debate but were, in actual fact, just crap basically. They had obviously spent a great deal of time (wasted imo) typing them in order to impress but they were just a waste of time reading. Anyway, where's Smithers when a man wants another brandy?
