  1. That's never a real quote man I love that it infers Bruce thinks there's 1 single computer. He saw a computer in Charnley’s office. ”Ah, that’s the club computer” he pondered.

    Thought someone might ping one of the ladder climbers with Gateshead being populated with both sets of fans.

    Stifleaay[/member] think you’re more in tune with football here than I have ever been.

  6. Odd to see league games so late in the afternoon over here. (Toronto) Watch when I wake up, take the kiddos out for a bit, come home and there's more football. Kinda great, actually.

    It would appear the whole of England has moved to the Arctic Circle as well. Sunderland made a cheeky break for it, well played!
  8. Televised doesn't let you see any off the ball. Its not a good way to scout I'd imagine there's more than a single camera and would have to put faith the pure litany of quantitative player, training, coaching and game data gives better insight than any single scouting report could possibly provide.
  9. Reaching new lows of Doomering on here. Is there a card where the twitter echo chamber is the opponentminion and the doomerang comes back to hit forum members directly on the temple? BlueStar[/member]?
  10. All I know about him is what I read on here and I've seen nothing to explain the love-in that some have. I really don't have an opinion on him, but the way people go on about him is ridiculous. Just what I was trying to get at. Yes he's good but he's no prophet like some see him on here I already voiced some doubts about his being too friendly to be objective re NUFC players and staff, but was grateful that he tried to keep us in the loop as far as the takeover was concerned. Not his fault that the PL kept moving the goalposts. Yes he could have been more cautious, but I think he acted on good faith.[b/] This. All day.
  11. Hadn't heard about this before. Seems a bit of a mess. Just checked out the Twitter they set up for it and he was active on it in Feb, including a rebuttal to the above rumour. Then went dark again until randomly retweeting Caulkin in August. Don't listen to Pod on the Tyne and don't know much about Taylor and/or Besty in general (I seem to recall seeing them split opinions on here in the past) but would happily give any Albert and/or 5-1 related efforts a go so I hope something still comes of it. That Taylor is a absolute cunt, I'm sure I've said it before on here... Might've jogged my memory on the split opinions. He the one that called you a virgin? Yeap. I don't mind the podcast, I don't take it too seriously and usually listen in to hear some perspective from the NE as I'm way over here in Canaduh. *side note: of all the forum's I'm apart of, this one, by far, has the harshest criticism's of anything living and breathing.
  12. The man has integrity and is only as good as his sources, like all journos. I think he's genuine and well intended, same for Chris Waugh.
  13. £173,000 is owed to a former manager for a promotion bonus from the National League. He was owed £200k but £27,000 had already been paid. That seems ridiculously high? £200k promotion bonus to the manager of a non-league club? Wasn't it Sol Campbell? There was two managers owed a similar wedge - Sol and John Askey. Ahh...right. I just remembered Big Sol ‘not haven’ it’ in photos (arms crossed) when he didn’t get his coaches pay. I’m sure he made double that in a month during his playing years, but still, services rendered and all that.

  15. It's the equivalent of Miami Vice Football Club. I'm with the Deuce, it's brilliant.
