The NUFC section "own up" thread...........
Colos Short and Curlies replied to madras's topic in Football
I think I can beat everyone's shirt name choices.... Maric (1999-2000 home shirt) Dabizas (2000-2001 black away/third shirt) Elliott (1995-97 home shirt) -
Has anyone heard anything about the forged tickets for Wednesday's game? Only heard a snippet on the radio, but it seemed that a few fans with genuine tickets for the away end were turned away as their seats had already been taken by forgeries

Keegan will have £100M to spend
Colos Short and Curlies replied to thedudeabides's topic in Football
Posted elsewhere, but anywho... My boss knows Mike (and that ex Spurs guy Paul Kemplsey (sp) through a mutal friend - I've seen photos of them on nights out so that bit at least is true. He's a manc with no reason to make stuff up about the toon..... Keegan has '£100m to spend in the summer', but Mikes actual thinking is that there is no limit and £100m is just a figure to use in conversations. Deco was approached in Jan for either a loan deal then or permanent in the summer - he turned both down although the summer deal may be of interest if we make big signings first. Mike bought us primarly for brand extension - he reckons its more cost effective to own a club for ten years than to sponsor the likes of Blackburn over a similar timeframe. Sports Direct or any other of his brands will not be on our shirts as a first choice. The aim is to replace Northern Rock with another third party, Adidas is likely to stay for now. However if decent deals can't be made then we may get a Lonsdale shirt etc. A bit ITKish I know, but just passing on what I've been told -
I think this season could set the record for the earliest point that all 3 relegation spots are secured. Can't see a way out for any of the bottom 3 now

Your personal favourite footballing moments of all time?
Colos Short and Curlies replied to GG's topic in Football
Bellamy, 3-2. Had been playing football for my uni league team in the afternoon and took a kick in the right eye socket (fractured it, but unknown at this time!). Little bit concussed, free WKD in the Students Union, fantastic game of football then pulled an Irish Stunner later on. Result all around -

Nelly Furtado and Jeff Goldblum? -
Individually probably Henry, for me though Ronaldo adds that little je ne sais qua to the whole team which Henry never quite managed. A gnats pube between them though

I think it's more about a sense/feeling about who you expect to deliver. You expect (that cunt) Gerrard to deliver when it matters. The key is to consistently deliver in these big moments because those are the only moments that will matter 20 years from now. That's why even though players like van Basten had a short-ish career, they'll always be remembered for their 'moments'. What's Ronaldo's 'moment' so far? What's any top footballer's 'moment' so far? I'd say that even Ronaldinho hasn't had his and will not go down as one of the greats. Great players have moments/tournaments which are forever associated with them. Eusebio had his 4 goals against North Korea as his moment, van Basten the wonder goal, Baggio with his incredible play in the '94 WC, Zizou the double in the WC final and the goal against Leverkusen - obviously I could go on but that's the gist of my argument. Only if its in a Liverpool Shirt and he can cheat. Gerrard is no where near being a great if Ronaldo the second isn't

Not that funny considering we are now 3pts from relegation like. Not for us maybe, but I always love seeing Arsenal implode

Newcastle is as multicultural as London tbh. It might be as multicultural (well, it isn't is, it, by a fucking long shot, but that isn't the point), but its also nowhere near as interesting. Two points: 1) If London wasn't interesting enough for him,. NEwcastle won't be. LEts not get the pathetic provincial blinkers on about that. 2) Why the fuck woudl he want to come here? And dont say fucking Keegan. No player of his age gives a toss about Keegan. I fear we're too small a club for him. A player of Reyes age would know all about Keegan's Newcastle of the 90's. Not saying he would want to come here, but if he had any interest in football growing up he would know about Keegan as a manager

Heard a whisper possibly Coventry. Someone who works up there, probably just a rumour though

What's Ashley doing - lost 129Mill on the markets last week?
Colos Short and Curlies replied to Tsunami's topic in Football
It's hilarious when these debates on financial matters take place on here. Loads of people chip in but only about 1 or 2 people seem to have any idea what they're on about. bet you mean yourself and chez I make that 3! -
I was brought to belive the main threat is the person who puts the ball in the net the most. Are world stars not talented individuals? Who was the better signing Kluivert or Bellamy?
