  1. A few years back Reading were in their 2nd PL season - according to the lads I know Madejski offered the manager £ 7 mm in the transfer window but he reckoned they could muddle through from their mid table position - and they didn't
  2. funnily enough THEY WANT TO WIN SOMMAT as opposed to being popular or attractive - like us

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    lets hope he's as good as he was before he was injured..................
  4. exactly - keepers don't play well if they think they're going to be judged on every performance
  5. aye - they never look that good and the meeja are always playing up their problems but they are sailing along - well on course for the CL next year and even a shot at the top shot
  6. I wish he'd pop up in Teeside or soemwhere else............
  7. given the fact we had a load of games pulled last weekend and the Scots are looking at a winter break a Jan WC isn't totally crazy................
  8. If you are going to Brum watch out - they are by far the nastiest bunch of supporters in that God forsaken city
  9. Stuck in Manchester, weather like this, dark between Nov-Feb, your team mates dressed in snoods........ and you ask why he wants away? hell, so do I.........................
  10. The McKeags were small time local solicitors who used to have an office at the city end of Jesmond Road - there was very little gentlemanly about their behaviour - i don't think the old man ever put a cent into the Club Lord Westwood looked the part but when asked to sign a guarantee in the early 80's for about £16k he resigned - it was a lot of money then - say £ £50k today but given what he and his old man had taken out over the years it was a bloody disgrace
  11. got the Leeming Bar case to come 'n aalll
  12. In my time I'd go McKeag Snr Ashley FFS McKeag Jnr on th owner front
  13. I f everyone gets a vote it won't improve our chances - it will be like the UN - and they'll certainly insist on rotation - probably 100 countries would liek to host a world cup so that means we're on for 2410
  14. bang on - we knew the rules and who was voting when we went in for it
  15. Fat Fred did enormous damage to our reputation with his actions At least we learnt the lesson and when we played Yeading we treat them properly - slagging off a non-league team 'cos it has a grotty ground is just ridiculous
  16. "one word of truth outweighs the whole world" Solzhenitsyn
  17. aaahhh blame him - aa do!
  18. "It would be a massive boost to the local economy and could help create much needed jobs here" What new jobs? A couple of midweek games at SJP and the SoS??? The tickets will be sold to local punters and the cash goes straight to FIFA in Zurich Maybe hotels in Newcastle may be able to hike their rates up on a couple of nights and BA and the train people will gut anyone booking a trip to-from London on those days but I doubt we'd get owt else All studies about the so-called benefits of sporting fixtures and new grounds show very little benefit In fact a lot of non-interested people steer clear - as we'll see in Olympic Year
  19. Hereford away - and we beat them 26-0 that'll stop them showing those damn goals from the 70's
  20. I reckon about halfway for the bottom - the top is set from game 8
