  1. It seemed pointless asking Newcastle fans if they hated Newcastle. When I was at uni me and my ManU supporting chums used to joke that everybody hates Leeds, even Leeds fans.
  2. So far aye, mind its against St Mirron today so to be expected Must be going mental, thought it said Hibs. They're not even close lol! Hibs got beat by Rangers earlier No, Kilmarnock got beat by Rangers earlier. Hibs are playing Aberdeen. Oops!
  3. Morton nil, Hamilton one - Richard Offiong (Remember him!)

  6. Absolute bollocks. You say footballers pay for their cars on finance, does that mean they don't actually have this huge sum of cash they have been paid for half the year and are actually living on nothing for 6 months until they get paid? I will be the first to admit I am not the brightest but if you are in law school with post like that I might run for Chancellor of the Exchequer Sorry GJ, not directly replying to you but mainly to the post above... Its true that (at least in the case of Man Utd - cant say for any other club) that players get paid twice a year. BUT, its not a tax saving thing, otherwise everybody in the country would do it. If you get paid £120k it doesn't matter if you get £10k a month or £100k once a year, you pay the same tax on it. Also, again I can only talk for Bentley here but no footballer has a Bentley on finance, its all standard 30 day credit terms after delivery. And as a law student Dazza should be well aware that the ways things are written (in what ever environment) can be important
  7. Its a music arena now. Sure I also read that the 'Fourth Grace' - the factor (apart from the need for cash) which won Liveprool COC has been scrapped. Sure one of our resident scallies can confirm or deny this
  8. I can't see Southgate expecting anything other than a 433 from us, hence I'd go 442 and pummel them for the first 20 or so to hopefully put the game out of reach for them. Harper (Right to Left) Taylor Roz Cacapa Carr (Prefer Enrique if he is match fit) Milner Geremi Smith Zog Owen/Dukes Martins Stick Owen/Dukes, Emre, Shola on the bench as attacking options
  9. not what you'd go with but you reckon it will bring a 3-1 win MY formation would bring a 5-0 win!
  10. Agree with Madras that 433 with the same personnel is likely, not what I'd go with personally but ho hum. 3-1 toon Martins Milner Dukes
  11. Why it couldn't be the Argentine inspired one I'll never know
  12. Harper Taylor Cacapa Roz Carr Milner Geremi Smith Zog Martins Dukes Owen Butt Ameobi Wildcard - being either Emre or one of LuaLua/Triosi Forster
  13. Better suggestion. Whoooaaaa Nelly, never said Harps should be England Keeper (should be James) Just that he is better than tubster
  14. who is the Spurs number two? Hope he is semi decent for their sake cos he may be needed soon!
  15. Englands number one. Englands, Englands Number One! Harper is the better keeper. Fact
  16. Sure I saw Oliver at the Metro Centre earlier. Thought about asking him about a made up link to see if it made the Ronnie tommorrow but bottled it!
  17. Thats a bit of a gross generalisation. Either way, youre opinion on seniors seems the same as your opinion on students and single parents, yet seniors get discounts You been to college or uni before? Im not being funny with you or owt. Genuine question Is this where you assume I'm a thicko because I got a job at 16? Nah, I did too for a couple of years. Just wondering whether you had been a student. If you had then maybe your opinion would be different. Being a student is a choice (one I made) and therefore why should students get discounts and freebies? I never had as much disposable income as I did as a student, when you top up loans and partime jobs coupled with relatively cheap rent, no taxes, and the abundance of chaep food and drink on offer you are minted compared to when you stop being a student and actually start working for a living and contributing to the tax system. I'm with SSR on this one
  18. Swansea away, just so i can go and see it! (would be a bastard for toon based lads to get to tho)
  19. Andy O'Brien, purely for the 'Derby' game
  20. So lets see... When we signed Enrique we were all chuffed about the fans reaction to losing him. Ditto Smudge What must the West Ham fans think when they see this thread!
  21. Say he was on £60k a week we are also saving £3.12million in wages this year £45k and its £2.34m for the year. Either way we are effectively £10m+ better off from this deal
  22. Whenever I see the name Cacapa! (with the exclaimation mark) I just think of a Streetfighter type move beng pulled off. (Sad I know)
  23. If Faye comes in them centre back is sorted. Wouldn't have any problems with any pairing for Taylor-Roz-Faye-Cacapa Edgar has looked decent in his cameo last season so he'll do for 5th choice. Huntington I'm undecided on, Ramage I'd peddle if an offer came in Agree on right back, if we could get in a solid right back then 5th place could be a realistic position for us come May
