Seeing as its you saying that, have you any reason for your confidence other than faith?

As someone on Toontastic said, it looks like something you'd see attached to a beer pump in a bar. Having just skimmed over the piece before now, I actually thought that was what it was until you just said that.

they always had the UBS backing as far as i remember. I don't recall hearing that, and I'm pretty sure I would've remembered. You don't forget UBS Any idea where you think you heard it? cant remember the exact source, but recall that when polygon were initially mentioned, it was said that UBS were financing the deal. quick search on the forum showed UBS+ Polygon mentioned together in June. also found this in the Independent http://www.findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4158/is_20060620/ai_n16488373 That one must've gone right over my head.

Anyone reckon old Ottmar put a word in for us?

This would appear to be huge news... I always said we should respect Switzerland's position of neutrality during the war. Not for them the bloody travails of conflict, they simply wished to live in peace.

Yeah, I'll have a listen to that, too, please.

Pretty much what he said. Its hard to imagine him being much worse an appointment than Souness.

bramble did well alongside woody, though, or do i misremember? Even AOB did well alongside him.

It was the Zog that beat him though, wasn't it? :roll: blueconfused.gif Zog's pass was the one that beat James, if I remember correctly. Sibbers had an open goal. :roll:

Huh? He never played under Robson. correct, im pretty sure his first game was against blackburn under carver when bobby had left and souness wasnt taking over until the monday? could be wrong like Aye that sounds familiar Spot on. Came on for about... ooh, 12 seconds?

that was done a few seasons ago and then scrapped I really don't remember it. Was it many time ago? It failed because the refs didn't have the balls to enforce it. The rugby version of this rule was slightly different, in that you don't have to move it forward the whole ten yards, you can take it anywhere behind the mark, so long as it's in line with it. Corrected, Continentalist. Corrected, you bloody reactionary. They've been using metres for ages, by the way. bluebigrazz.gif The M was entirely intended

This poll proves first-past-the-post is the only way.

Good point, actually.

All this 6'4 stuff does presuppose Oliver being accurate in what he says.

Thank god for that!! Hang about, it's just this kind of sensible decision making that we need at NUFC!! Shearer for manager!! I like your logic

The ROI would win due to the England squad being gutless, prideless rubbish. I reckon. Thinking about it, maybe a draw. Moral victory to the boys in green, though.

No, you see it wasn't strictly his fault in the worst sense. It was unfortunate that he appointed Souness, but the main issue is that we as supporters never took to him - something that was dictated by neither rhyme nor reason. Had we done so, it would in itself have propelled us back towards the Champion's League.

Well we won't agree. I was gutted when it was announced Parker was captain because I knew what that implied. He's not good enough to be a fixture in the team. In my opinion. blueyes.gif Just declaring my side.

AW should've left at the end of 04/05 for his own good.

bluebigeek.gif He'll KILL you! Shepherd is Shepherd, so I've nothing much to say regarding him.

He's got some way to go before he has anywhere near the class of Darren Ambrose, though.

mackems.gif I don't know if you rate Ranieri or not, but he made a play for the job prior to Shepherd obeying the wishes of the fans and appointing Roeder. You really think World Class managers like Ranieri and Hitzfeld want to manage a club that is now currently in a relegation battle? I know Ranieri did in Spring because he said so. That's what I'm getting at.
