Erm...because it's incredibly annoying? If you're using a a device ill-suited to communicating in written language (mobile), txt speak makes sense, insamuch as it's possible to make sense trying to use a voice device for text messaging. On this forum, with a keyboard in front of you, it makes no sense to use txt speak, must take more effort to type that way, and certainly takes a lot more effort to understand. a little hypocritical don't you think if others are going to be picky then so will i No that's just you again. It's an accepted exception, by definition it's "txt" speak.

it's bearable in small doses, but when someone comes out with several sentences that don't mean anything at all, it's a problem. Anyway, delighted for the Sibman.

quite, he obviously put quite a bit of work into it, but ruined it all in 2 seconds by being a foot

Speaking of Spurs... that fake "Crouch to NUFC BBC exclusive" thread came direct from their genious minds: http://newsbbccouk.robert-mccreary.com/

Started reading that, and all I could think of was that it sounds like a direct quote from the gooch himself in an interview.... referring to himself in the 3rd person and all

I've got a good feeling about the lad. If anything a big improvement on what we have here. Plus he made Marseille build their hopes (à la Duff/Spurs) so already a legend Looking forward to seeing him in action.

Liverpool are only 2 points behind Chelsea now!! (albeit with one more game played, but still). Will make things interesting.

Seemed like a decent goal, "crashing one in-off the bar from 25 yards" says the BBC site

Really? actually, no he didnt. Scored the equaliser, Lyon drew 1-1 at home to Nice http://www.lequipe.fr/Football/FootballFicheMatch10571_76639.html

oh dear

Well who would have thought it... actually having a run of matches in a team worked. Crazy!

wooohooo the Robins!!! \o/ what a comeback

The player we should be getting from Bordeaux, is MARC PLANUS. Great name, solid centre back... exactly what we need imo. It's weird that he hardly never gets mentioned in England, but I'm sure he'd do very well in England. http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/7072/bordeauxplanus04051id.jpg http://img105.imageshack.us/img105/391/72628667fr5.jpg http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/539/718692687in.jpg

One which I can proudly say I took myself: http://img442.imageshack.us/img442/8056/europeannightbyshearermps0.th.jpg

oh yeah had actually forgotten. [/thread]

Duff? also Tomasson has to fall into this category.

Well... I've seen him play quite a few times, and I'm not really a fan. He's somewhat of a morale player, sometimes will be good sometimes invisible. Has a good height on him and is decent in the air. Might consider him on loan... but to be honest don't think he'd hack it here. Would get pushed around in this league, wouldnt like it, and would be crap

All three pretty expensive though, from what I can remember.

Normally hotels in Jesmond are your best bet, as they are cheap(er) yet still at walking distance from the city center. Some decent places along Osbourne Road (like Osbourne Hotel itself) or in the streets perpendicular to it.

Forgot to ask you for the photos in question on TT, Nobby. If you wouldnt mind?

"I played with him in England games and he definitely had the mentality of a Man United player" Got to agree with that though. He would have fit right in.

Some pretty cool quotes there too.

well...

Doesnt look as bad as we've seen though (Cisse etc...): Getty photos linkarage Still unlucky for him... However would only laugh if this happened to certain other players in the league...
