Don't know what it's called, but that one that goes "we are young . . we are free" you know? That would be good. if its the supergrass one its "we are young,we run green" the song is called "alright"

"those were the days"--mary hopkin it could have been written in alegory for NUFC. Once upon a time, there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours, Think of all the great things we would do Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely woman really me Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friend we're older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we choose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way. La la la la... Those were the days, oh yes those were the days

just been on to a mate about it and russ conway was on but earlyish on. in his words "the turnstiles opened and the bloke put the album on and fucked off to the novocastria for a pint"

Enough pre-Keegan staff there to let him know that Beye is a way better player than Carr, he also showed great dedication with how fast he got back here from the A.C.O.N. He will have had a full week in training too so I think he will start ahead ofr Carr. as with the players i think will get to know the staff before he trusts them too much (they would've been the ones backing allardyces use of smith in midfield and etc)

Late fifties or early sixties - Russ Conway with Billy Cotton. My mother was madly in love with Russ Conway!! She kept saying what a great pianist he was, even though he only had three fingers and a thumb, on one hand. Also, less of this "old timers" stuff, Mr Embryo. You do realise (or don't you?) that by 'approximately' the week after next (it will seem to you, absolutely) you will be "grown up and well past it / half dead" in the eyes of the next generation of little kiddiewinkies on here! but do you remember being played regularly at the match ? whats this bit about the week after next ? i'm probably seen as well past it or half dead already. Yeah - me too!!! Been going to the match since 1967 (off and on) then permanently from 1970, but I don't actually remember that. What I do remember, for many years, was a sort of 'big-band' or orchestra type instrumental (marching tunes??) type tunes, being played before the match and probably at half time. Does anyone remember them - seemed to be for years into the seventies - marching 'military-type' music?? yip i remember that. i deffo remember the russ conway stuff from the season afetr we got relegated. standing in the e-wing with my spud-u-like at about 2pm and they must have put the album on aevery week for at least a season or two

i would but i dont think he'll drop carr for beye. carrs done little wrong since keegans arrival and beye is an unknown quantity to him

had to realy be in the old stand as thats about as far as the PA used to reach

russ conway was played over the PA pre game and half time. not for us the bay city rollers,roxy music or the sweet.

something that implies the fans and the media think along the same lines.

does this bring back any memories from the 70's and possibly very early 80's. from 53secs onwards. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TnIpQhDn4Zg

aye and at that point we were the best team in the tournment (even though we'd faltered till then),england should have won that tournament

How do we know he'll stick with Carr? Because i dont believe KK will know too much about Beye yet and i think he not only rates Carr but thinks he's in good form. Don't get me wrong i'd have Beye over Carr everyday of the week. All well and good, but the backroom staff are the same as when Beye went to Africa, and they know that Beye pisses on Stephen Carr, so I think he will slot straight back in, same with Faye and Martins. he'll know about martins and his mind will be made up as much about fitness (as opposed to vidukas/ameobis unfitness),he'll like the physicality that faye brings....but with beye (who ,although carr has done well enough,i'd bring back in)does he know enough about him to drop someone who has played fairly well ?

my team...... given beye taylor cacapa enrique faye milner n'zogbia duff owen martins go for pace and play on the break. unlikely and understandably keegan wont do this as carr has been decent for keegan as has cacapa

the fans will give at least a year. the media were against as soon as he was announced. i did hear an interesting story about the media's take on nufc. as we know ashley aint liked much i the city or media for his attitude towards them. this has carried over to the sports journos. when they were asking their finacial desk ciolleagues about hin when he first took over they were told he'll tell you nowt,print any shit you want he'll not break cover,he appears not to care about the press. the sports journos thought "he'll not do that with us" but he has and they cant't handle it,hence the negative press.(also hence even when the alvaro deal was totally bogus no denial or anything,just let them print what they want---very good thing in my eyes,the media has been a tail wagging footballs dog for too long). this was passed to me by a feelancer in football journalism and toon fan.

would be easier just to rent one for the next six months

yes and no.....on those occasions he took advantage of being left back and getting a bit spce to work off duff...n'zogbia hasn't got the nouse to do this as the midfield player. on at least 2 of those occasions what seemingly looked like a good ball wasn't really,played at hip height and near post when given time and space.aswell as too much setting off on runs that fire the crowd up while actually going down blind alleys. a mix between duff and n'zogbia would be canny.

for everyone that wasn't here for keegan as manager first time round. take what he says with a pinch of salt. he'll say what he thinks is best to get the best out of the player/team. between now and then end of the season he'll be bigging up players he knows he wants shot of come summer. some of those on here who analyse each and every word uttered by those at the club are going to have to find a new hobby.

If. One of the biggest words in the footballing language. Why are we so desperate for everyone to love us? we arent. its a reaction to everyone taking the piss for no good reason.

he played 1 great advantage ,saw where the play led,realised the advantage hadnt played out and brought the play back///well done...too few refs do this. but then blew early consistently throughout and ignored adavantage for the rest of the game. There was one "advantage" he played where the ball was played square, then we misplaced a pass (shock horror), yet he got us out of jail by pulling it back, probably outside the timeframe in which he should have. Advantage is overused and overrated. was it getting us out of gaol or was it using the rule as it should be used ? advantage is underused and underated because refs are loathe to bring back play when the advantage brakes down(even within the timeframe)

right then. "these immigrants are fuck off with your shite biased spiteful comments about nufc as when it turns round and you are licking our arses we'll fuck you off stealing our jobs"

not sure he did play the advantage on that occasion. just play was very late in stopping. Wey he should have played advantage! he should have,i agree. referees are notoriously the only people on the planet who don't understand the advantage rule. today he had numerous occasions to use and used it once.

there was an ad based on that match with a football pitch and "X's" around the goal to signify each NUFC attempt.the ad even had a title of "newcastle utd v west ham utd" i'll be awake all night now thinking about what it was for.
