 I just don’t get the connection- It’s from a film about a Yank buying land in a Scottish village, then changing his mind. 
 

Newcastle connection- the bloke who composed it was born here? 
 

 

Fuck off 

 

The fucker is from Glasgow, moved to Blyth when he was seven, then fucked off to Leeds Uni

It was pure spinal tap

This makes me wonder if Sting might rediscover his geordie accent once we start climbing up the league?

I’ve always thought this would be better. 

Local band, the lyrics sort of fit, mentions the Corner 

 

Can someone start a campaign, I just can’t be arsed. 

Don’t know who the DJ was around 07/08ish but he had a habit of playing “run for home” after we’d won and thousands would join in, it was fuckin brilliant. … they played “coming home Newcastle “ by Busker in the Clock at about 10 to 4 last Sunday and I thought the roof was going to come off the fuckin shithole

Stang from the Police, as he’s known in Viz.

“Did you hate Local Hero when we were shit?” is how we’ll identify Johnny-come-latelys from now on.

Wasn’t he the same lad that played Blitzkrieg Bop just before Oh Fortuna? 
Then they replaced him with some muppet from Metro or something? 

[Howmanheyman 26625]

'Barry in the box' was replaced by Robson and it went downhill until he fucked off after a year. The kid from century is enthusiastic and err, that's about it.

[Meenzer 13988]

There was one DJ used to roll out Judas Priest's "United" on a regular basis, the dreariest attempt to rewrite "We Will Rock You" you could imagine. SO KEEP IT UP!

I think he might actually be an MLF if a tale I heard was right? (There's one for you, RTG, you'll be like a babies arm holding an apple if that was true?) 

[Tom 13815]

The worst thing recently has been the bloke saying “enjoooyyy the gaaame”.

 

When 50 odd thousand people are sat there knowing full well they aren’t going to enjoy the game. 
 

They should have stopped that under Ashley. 
 

“this is gonnnaa be shit”

Have you been on the Essembee Ale? 

 

Sorry, I missed my footing with that stat.

 

 

[Monkeys Fist 38575]

I’ll take that as a yes 

[ohhh_yeah 2763]

 

Aye. Barleywine that was aged in bourbon barrels from a local brewery.

 

[Monkeys Fist 38575]

Giddup! 

[ohhh_yeah 2763]

 

Check out this absolute shithousery just after the 2:39 mark. Not even shown a yellow card.

 

 

[Dougle 2852]

4 minutes and 10 seconds I lasted on that shite.

 

And we think our commentators are bad

 

As to the shithousery bit, there was a neat, compact, edited version doing the rounds on twitter in 1974.

[ohhh_yeah 2763]

 

Dwayne Johnson         @TheRock

 

this is called delivering a devastating, “Rock Bottom” + I assume player in green got up and fought his ass off, unless he got his bell rung. + I also assume there was a card delivered in the red color palette

Watch Neville's body language in the last 5 minutes of this. He's so fucking uncomfortable when faced with the prospect of having to criticise his friends. 

 

Souness is spot on, basically saying I'm offering up my idea of a solution and you're just knocking it down, but SOMETHING has to change, and Neville is squirming in his seat because the only answer to what is wrong at Man United is that his real life friends aren't up to the task. 

 

This is how you end up with these situations where an objectively poor manager like Steve Bruce can't be criticised.
