Is that mitro strangling Gayle again Looks like he's having his face completely re-arranged

SSSshhhhh its all working out ok, goto sleep. I still think <b> Diame is not on form </b>, and Mitro and Gayle is sooooo tempting Worrying.

Fuck me, what a tedious pile of shite. All about not losing, rather than trying to win, cheers Mourinho you boring bellend. Almost makes you glad to be in the championship, do we really want to be in this league again? Best league in the world my arse.

Ashley Young's face never gets any less punch-able as the years roll by.

What a yawn-fest Mourinho teams are. That corner was the first time they'd been near the Liverpool box in about 15 mins. Useless.

Was that before/after the last game of the season 86/87? If it was that game, I don't recall anyone getting thrown in the Trent, but there was a quite amazing pitch battle at the end of the game, about 40 a side, went on for a good 2-3 mins. I remember watching it from the benches, we lost the game 2-1, huge Toon contingent there. Gazza scored our goal when put clean through, can recall the celebrations, fans on the pitch and we were 2 down at the time in an end-of-season game that meant nowt. Different times, think it was about 3 quid a ticket to get in.

Why is out game up so much later then all the others? http://eachgoal.com/2016/10/newcastle-united-vs-brentford-3-1-highlights/ Edit - these "highlights" aren't much cop, just fan shot video, better off waiting for Sky.

Only got to OT twice but both were memorable for different reasons. Went there early in the 84/85 season soon after promotion. We got absolutely pasted 5 nowt and played s**** generally (apart from moments from Waddle and Beardsley) but it was memorable for the sheer amount of Toon fans at the game. It's easy to exaggerate a large away following but there had to be at least 12000 Newcastle fans there and if you watch the highlights that are out there, you can see we had that entire end behind the goal and a bit up the side as well. I could swear we had more fans there that day than even Liverpool and Everton did in that era. Also went in the 87/88 season for the 2-2 with Mirandinha scoring 2 and although he was uncoordinated and greedy and generally lacking in any type of awareness whatsoever, he was a treat to watch that day. He scored from a deflected free kick that seemed at the time to take about 4 seconds to trundle into the net and a mad back-post header from a flicked-on corner. Can remember getting pelted with coins after both goals by the c***s next to us. Everything happened in the first half, loads of action and then the second half, from memory, nowt seemed to happen at all. Tons of memories from the 84-98 era, hard to only pick out a few. yep was at that one, in the paddocks, almost to the half way line down the side. remember speaking to some man utd fans years later who said they were in the stretford end that day, and were shitting themselves when they saw how many of us there was- but f*** me OT made some noise then when they scored. was it 52k crowd? Would have to look it up but their big gates in those days were around 55-56k so probably right around there. Aye it was loud as f*** when they scored, OT in those days, seemed like there was something about the construction/acoustics of the Stretford end that created some amazing noise levels when they scored. Remember seeing them on the news beat Liverpool in the very last minute with a long range curler by Davenport, Easter 87, deafening when the goal went in. We had played at Everton that day, got tanked 3 nowt (Wayne Clarke hat-trick) and I can remember seeing loads of Liverpool fans on the way to Manchester as we were going to Liverpool same day, full of themselves, giving us the Vs and generally being worky tickets. Then heading home, their faces on the coaches going back to Liverpool as we left the city were a f***ing picture. Everton basically won the league that day.

Remember that game, was windy as fuck, Rob Lee scored a couple, one a long range belter at the Gallowgate end.

You're so humble.

Took all his goals well, the shot for the winner was a peach and the movement for the first but the control and finish for the second goal was just ridiculous. Sublime.

They went down 86-87 under Billy McNeill who also managed to relegate Man City the same season , so he's got that wrong for a start, came back up under Graham Taylor with a team that included a young David Platt and Alan McInally in 87-88. That's either fabulously irreverent or you missed what the mad c*** was saying altogether. The thought of that radge packet comparing current day Villa to previous eras is too amazing

League wise, Barnsley? I recall we beat them 6-0 in 2009/10 but that was at home I was thinking 92/3 for some reason. Yep that was 6-0 as well but also at home. Honestly I recall 5 at WBA in 89/90, 5-1 at Coventry in the late 90's but drawing a blank at 6 away goals in a league game. Closest I can think of was Notts County under Keegan we won 7-1 in a cup game.

Must be decades since we hit 6 away from home??? I can remember hitting 5 a few times but never 6

Didn't QPR start the season well!? I seem to recall us celebrating because Barnsley scored a late equalizer against them

I know you meant expansive but made me chuckle, we improve and the ticket prices go up

Nowt happened in 5 minutes like

How did you play today mate?

aye we'd better hurry up there then

Like a lumberjack's picnic

Going back a bit more, I can recall him playing for Ipswich around 87 or 88, he scored a hat-trick against Middlesbrough who they beat 4-0, 2 of them long range rakers. I remember watching those highlights and thinking he must be one of the best young strikers in the world at the time Maybe he was?! I think Newcastle were linked to him around then too which was very exciting to me as a teenager scouring the Ronnie Gill for tidbits. Nowt happened of course and we signed the midgets Hendrie and Robertson instead. Fantastic striker, RIP.
