Kids these days are less likely to be pissheads than we were anyway http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-25652991

Leave already booked up for the first two home games, so hope they move them.

ITV word it like they don't really want him, they just don't want us to have him http://www.itv.com/news/2015-06-14/rumours-liverpool-make-shock-bid-for-qpr-striker-charlie-austin-psg-want-cristiano-ronaldo/

I love the way they're pushing Bobby Moncur as some kind of voice of the fans when he agrees with everything Ashley does or ever will do without question. Bobby Concur more like.

Surely we should hire this guy height=800http://i.imgur.com/TbuTqKR.jpg[/img]

Mirror article 1/6/15 Followed the next day by... "Lee Clark has revealed it is his ‘dream’ to manage Newcastle United - and that he believes they are one of the best run clubs in the Premier League under Mike Ashley’s stewardship." htTp://m.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/lee-clark-i-want-to-be-newcastle-manager-1-7289328 Willing to completely abandon his principles to try and get a job, he'll fit right in.

Every time I hear anything about this film it reminds me of when Monty Burns made his own vanity project film, A Burns For All Seasons

It's OK, it was just a loan. That they didn't have to pay back of they didn't qualify for the World Cup.

http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/seaton-delaval-pub-pay-12000-9389503 A Seaton Delaval pub has been ordered to pay £12,000 in costs for breaching Premier League copyright. The Victoria and Albert Inn was recently ordered by the High Court to pay the football league in excess of £5,000 for making unauthorised foreign broadcasts.

Always seemed fishy to me.

So we've tried getting a young, untested but promising foreign manager just setting out on his managerial career, and seeing as he's turned us down we're going for our back-up option, the complete opposite, a dinosaur older British manager seen as a safe bet to achieve mediocrity. We don't actually have a clue what our 'blueprint' is, do we? I like this Ford Focus, do you have it in blue? No? OK, uh, I'll take the skateboard then.

More of the same, with the added bonus of being told you can't moan about it because you should have been careful what you wished for when we weren't happy with getting turned over 4-0 every other week under Pardew.

Dyche has a spine, would ask too many awkward questions in the interview and be ruled out like Vieira.

Been suggested he's now subject to investigation. I imagine to continue as president he'd have to travel to various countries who might nick and/or extradite him. Wouldn't be surprised if he retired somewhere not particularly known for having extradition treaties.

All home league games, not been bothering with the cups because I waste enough leave already, and we don't want to be in them. Go to a few away games, usually make a weekend of it with the lads, have a night out in Hull, Birmingham or whatever before and after.

Short bus more like.

Warner is definitely going down, he's too thick to keep his mouth shut, unlike Blatter. From what he's said so far it seems his defence will be "It's OK to take and give bribes as long as the money goes to a good cause."

I love the fact Germany is called Ale Mania. What's France, Cheese Frenzy?

Dunno, just caught on. It's a fun crowd, drums and dancing. Mostly wee guys but fair play for creating an atmosphere. Says a lot that I enjoyed Motherwell - Ross County than Newcastle - Man City Our fans should adopt a song too, if only so half of them might actually fucking sing. The Ajax one is mad too although they are probably off their nuts all game I vote for the Ducktales theme. a-woo-ooh.

One has just been sacked by a Derby team whose fans are glad to see the back of him after he fucked up getting them out of the division below us. tbf my next door neighbour is a Derby fan and he has nothing but good things to say about McClaren, reckons he completely turned them around and had them playing decent football. He claims the drop in performances this season was mainly down to their top scorer Chris Martin getting injured in Feb and Jordan Ibe being recalled by Liverpool in January. Still don't want him mind, but I do think he's step up from Pardew and on a different planet to Carver. Everyone is on a different planet to Carver, which probably means it's him that's on the other one.

Last time I went to the Baltic pretty much the only thing there was a room with a shed in it. Just a shed. Except you weren't allowed to take pictures of it, like you can with my shed.

Surely no matter how much they 'groom' him internally, they're not going to give him the top job when he's never managed at the top level before? It wouldn't be a matter of demanding him back, if he turns out well there'll be a natural rise in expectation over the course of the season and he'll go there. Although I think the same was said about O'Neill using the mackems as a stepping stone to the Man U job...
