does it actually mean much. how many goals has he let in you can honestly say were his fault ?.

i think it was the mail yesterday had to publish a correction that michael owen DIDN'T want a pay rise and talks over a new contract hadn't even started

NE5......... i'm 40 and this year i saw my first real footage of tony green (the 2-0 win at old trafford atfer hereford). i feel robbed

I could see any CM partnership that doesn't include Faye being ran over too easy. and you'll see i put faye in midfield *2

some ? come on grass..the vast majority. In the earlier days it was a good majority. Makes it even more special. You weren't always there so you had to paint your own picture going off the radio commentary. I'd relish MOTD to see the goals, to see if they were anything like I pictured them to be. Half in half like. MOTD today? What's on the other channel. Again, desensitised to it all now to a degree. I listened to the play-off against the mackems on the radio at a mackems house with his mackem family. hope it was the away one.

ali j yes,the day we signed shearer. 3000 mile away and find out before my mates back home and EVERYONE talking about it. the world service 15min sports bulletin taken up with one subject for a whole day.

i have some good mackem mates and they reckon they are gone. 5 in midfield at home to everton sealed it and dare i say it...they reckon keane has lost the plot.

some ? come on grass..the vast majority.

i could see the emre-barton partnership being over ran too easy

sitting in the dining room up against the ducted air vent listening to metro and their match reports of away games. they were only allowed something like 3 per half.(late 70's)

i've actually been impressed with owen since he got back. holds the ball up well and finds a toon player and as sniffer says if we had a midfielder who could find him he has the movement still (check the blackburn game....aye i know he fucked the first one) IF he can be fed.

We were playing football behind SJP on the night we beat Bolton 3-1 away in 95, listening to the match on the radio. If I remember right, we went to the top of the table that night and we stayed there for the most part. I remember it being a warm evening, very cool, with a red sky. i was there..it was the ginola and neil cox night,the night when english eyes were opened to what ginola could do.

where the fuck to start,for a start off it's not "love" in that way,more of a brother that you love but can hate and want to hurt but have 100% loyalty to and is involved in every period of your growing. memories......too many,these stand out. 3-0 up at home to liverpool after about 30mins, 74-75 (4-1ft) and wondering...why can't we do this all the time,aged 8 the malty smell from the breweries at night matches 3-1 new years day and 3-1 new years day the looks on the faces of locals when NUFC came to town in the 80's wilderness years. me and eddie (my dads mate) getting laughed at in the club for saying things are changing and we'll be challenging soon (back then everyone would ask about "your team"....."what happened to your team yesterday?"..within months it was "we"...."we can win this league".....fickle bastards than as now for too many) why i reallly have this thing for NUFC (and football) is through the shitty times...school worries..no job worries..relationship breakdowns...nightmare pregnancies...parentsl illnesses....NUFC and football have gave me respite. the outside is shut out,all the worries disappear and only the football matters for that little while.............in truth NUFC is my respite from the real world.

i think they should name names and give examples of what they mean.

foreign holiday and a new kitchen (though the kitchen may have to wait till the autumn/winter)

I doubt it, it would be like insuring somebody with terminal cancer, it just wouldn't happen. Why couldn't a club insure a costly investment against things that may mean they lose that asset? the club probably could...if an insurance company would take on the risk (which in barton's case i doubt they would) EDIT...sorry..mick just beat me to it (by 15 hrs)

keegan walks ? well lets examine that...he left us first time round ,he says due to the changing way the club was being run due to the club becoming a PLC and he couldn't do it the way he wanted...if true,it's a very legitimate reason. fulham...left to manage England...legitimate reason England....left and looked a broken man. couldn't hack it and realised it. this was a walk out of the kind he's accused of. citeh....he says they wanted him to commit himself to longer,he didn't want to. so they wanted someone in long term. mutual agreement....legitimate reason if true.

They wont make such a DVD. What happened to the DVD of last season? It's the first time for years that nothing's been released. an end of season DVd would have some fantastic goals on it.......against us i'll grant you but we have been on the shitty end of some great goals.

i was there. when brock went in kevin scott took it on himself to be his minder and he bullied speedie out the game (why he couldn't have done it earlier we just don't know). stan seymour jnr died that night in a birmingham hotel.

winner against leicester away, there was never a bigger goal for this club I think we would have still stayed up if it finished 1-1 at Leicester. As such i think Kelly's goal was the big one. cou;d've got beat at leicester and still stopped up as other reults went our way. we weren't to know that at the time. for those that weren't there,not only did we secure our own survival that day but the leicester fans turned uo for a party as they could've went up that day.

and we slag them off for bias when they say it about man utd etc

you listened to the interview...thats the difference,many just pick up on the tiny snippet fed to them by the media.

'kin hell. 10 years ago tady i was in prague. 5 years ago today i was in milan this afternoon i shall be going to bishop auckland my life is some bizzare allegory to NUFC,

so 90's
