While I understand the argument that it was an early kick off so they hadnt had any ale. Hang on a minute, THAT is an excuse for the home fans not the aways surely isnt it? I would reckon 90% of my pre match alcohol on away trips is consumed on the journey with just 10% consumed at the destination. If the kickoff is 12 you start drinking when you leave at 6/7, simple isnt it? And yes, I hate Geordie Liverpool fans, theres loads, I know one who is always Liverpool this and Liverpool that when really his interest in football is minute. c***.

Size of stadium, fanbase, history, turnover etc. NUFC despite what some of our own fans would rubbish is a big club, one of the biggest in the country although not an elite club which I regard Man Utd, Liverpool and Arsenal as. I'd say Everton are a big club too along with Villa, Spurs and Chelsea. Clubs of stature. Yeah I'd say basically when you add together fan base, stadium, turnover, honours etc etc you get a club of 'stature'. People think we've won f*** all as a club EVER. Sure we've won nowt in years but we've won 6 YES SIX FA CUPS as well as a European trophy amongst other things. We have been a top three side numerous times since the PL started and even as recently as THIS DECADE. Numerous stints in the CL to boot aswell as more seasons in the UEFA cup than I can keep count of. Sure, we are s*** now but these things should not be forgotten. I'd say these are the 'true' clubs of stature in England: Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, Everton, Spurs, Villa, and Leeds. Some others may come close to this group but they are the undoubted 'Big Clubs'.

Its probably already been said but Liverpools support today was some of the worst ever heard from a side top of the league. Not a peep for the first 20 minutes. They have been spoilt.

Who are they? Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal. Sure, others may have won more than us (yes your club I know) but thats the way I see it. Im sorry if you dissagree.

I agree with HTT here. Big club? call it what you like, one things for sure, we are a club of stature. That cannot be denied by anybody. The ONLY thing missing to be truely regarded as an elite club is the lack of a winning mentality engrained within the corridors and foundations of the club which enables teams to be assembled who succeed on a regular basis. For me there are only 3 clubs in this league who I see as 'bigger' than us. That is why results like this should be unacceptable.

We are NOT appointing Kinnear long term man Tooj!!!!!!!! Not in a million years!!!!!! :nope: :nope: Ahem, I hope.

Come on.......songs with Ricky in the chorus..........think think!

"Nacho, Nacho man!!!....I want to be, a Nacho man!!"

Need some songs for him now the Keano ones are dead!

Stop being a miserable fart, just think about when Keane left and it was all Eriksson and Houllier and whatnot and who do they end up with but Sbragia!!! mackems.gif A Mackem lad at work was adamant it was Houllier coming in!!!! mackems.gif

Christmas Blunderland Wonderland.

From RTG: "Anyone else absolutely fucking furious?! I cant believe it. Rarely have I ever been more angry as a sunderland fan." "the fans views echo those of real madrids fans when del bosque took over and look what he took them to" "How we all laughed when Newcastle appointed Kinnear at least he's managed before." "David Craig on SSN: "I think fans will be happy." "Like fuck....... we tell Allardyce to fuck off and appoint him from the "breathtaking list".

ha hahahahaha RTG is like a nuclear wasteland at the moment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MERRY XMASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 :colo: :colo: :colo: :lol: mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif mackems.gif :cheesy: :cheesy: :clap: ;D ;D :celb: :clap2: :clap2: :iamatwat: :thup: :thup:

This is Newcastle ffs man. You know he's gonna be replaced by someone worse.

Bobby Charlton. Ashington's Geordie enough for me.

Great avatar!

Fuck off!

Why dont you make yourself a proper cuppa and sit down and enjoy it mate?

Has anybody given Kinnear the job long term? No. He got the job on a 4 week contract to start wiith. That was extended to an 8 week contract. Now he's got a contract to the end of the season, so what the f*** is your problem? I think the problem is that some nerds aren't happy unless they're ripping people apart. Personally, i think it stems from overflowing bitterness from their real lives. , yes pedro111, renowned for constantly ripping people apart.

I was mearly putting up an argument against the title of this thread and stating that in my opinion, Joe is not 'The Man'. I am as happy as larry that we won.

Sorry, I forgot, I already conceded, give JFK the job. Happy days.

FYP!

Classic circular reasoning, that. If JFK wins us the FA cup this year I'll be the first to offer my mouth for the congratulatory blow job.

Which is the main spuds forum?
