  1. You can always 'acquire' the full game very easily these days or so Ive heard.
  2. I genuinely feel sorry for you mate!!, Sounds like a tramp begging for scraps of food My only chance to see the whole game unfortunately, if that makes me a tramp so be it. How come all the other yanks got to see it live then!?

    Haha the Steve Bruce Tracksuit advert that was in the Journal is in the Chronicle today too!
  5. Simple, Epic CLASSSSS!!!!!!
  6. Barca for me too but the Mackems match is in the top three. A notable mention goes to Shearers Testimonial. I dont think that I have ever had such a feelgood factor from any game of football which lasted for days and days after the game. The next day at work, non football types were asking me why I had such a big grin on my face that lasted all day long and it was all because of something which had threatened to be such a massive damp squib due to NUFC's shittyness at the time and Shearers injury forcing him out of the game. I honestly had to force myself to go to the game but in the end it turned out to be probably the greatest testimonial that has ever been played in this country. Not in terms of the match itself (which was canny enough) but there was just this magic in the air; it was a balmy late spring evening, the atmosphere was immense, it was the clubs record goalscorer, its icon, the symbol of everything that is great and good about Newcastle United Football Club and the City itself; my hero and we came back from the dead to get a stonewall (ahem) penalty in the last minute to win and then Shearer comes off the bench and slots home the winner. Honestly, it was the perfect fairytale ending and then we had that lass singing "Time to say Goodbye" on the pitch and the entire ground held their scarves aloft 70's style; what a sight! I had a massive lump in my throat, grown men were crying FFS, it was hairs on the back of the neck stuff at a fucking TESTIMONIAL! Shearer did his lap of honour and then stood holding his wife and kids looking up to the heavens as ticker tape rained down and fireworks lit up the sky. Magic.
  7. Thought it was Fuck off Steve Bruce.....at least that is what I thought I heard on sunday Aye, too many people sing "Cheer up". Its "FUCK OFF" man ffs.
  8. If you arent from here but you fervently support the team then ive no problem with you calling yourself a Geordie tbh; especially during football discussions amongst other non Geordies.
  9. Yeah the Boro game was the last great atmosphere before this but this was better. Ive watched it back and the SKY microphones were crackling when the goals went in because it was so loud. Could only hear the mackems twice in the entire game; once with a Steed Malbranque song early on and then briefly after they scored.
  10. Re the boots debate; if you are of the generation of mid to late twenties then wearing Umbro Specialis during your school/boys club career showed that you were not only a player of great skill and ability but that you were also understatedly stylish, which was something the Predator fanboys never grasped.
  11. Aye its not that long ago that I had him down as not ever going to be good enough and that we should get shot so I am incredibly happy to have been proved wrong!
  12. Probably trying to be like Shearer who also wore Umbros. Umbro Specialis; THE best most stylish boots ever; I wore nothing but during my school and boys club career. Shearer wore them so naturally I had to aswell.
  13. You know what summed up how good yesterday was for me? The fact that I sit next to a 60 plus year old man with serious spine problems but after the 5th went in I had him in a jubilant headlock and he loved every second of it.
  14. Eh? Just exaggerating, but this must be the worst thread ever like. Compared to most of the threads on the SMB, this seems like a very normal and valid thread tbh.
  15. We needs us a new song to comemorate the 5 - 1 thrashing of Scumderland me thinks.
  16. I dont like the new fonts and stuff the Chronicle have introduced lately.
