The last 20 mins vs argentina in 86

Exactly. I always have a little chuckle when an OP is linked to the daily hate. Having said that in this case the thread was started by a poster who calls himself von Manstein - a natural name for a daily heil reader

Man Utd should have a minutes applause not silence for Munich. After all they have been laughing all the way to the bank since then. They only became the best supported club after this, before that they couldn't beat us for attendences.

I hope this will end here. did he or didn't he And thats what you classify as a 'debate'? A debate you are claiming victory for? How old are you again? FWIW I was unaware that he had made that quote, I am now. Feel free to revel in your 'victory' you immature twonk I'm far too old to be bothered with attempting to show blokes in their 30's and 40's to suck eggs, which appears to be the case with you. I replied to your response by the way. Nobody asked you to respond to me, especially when you had absolutely nothing to add. I think any real supporter of the club would be aware he made that quote, most people I know who actually support the club knew it, it was everywhere. Next time, don't dispute facts I post and you won't end up looking like you still need to learn how to suck eggs At the end of Souness's first season in charge, my mother who was 80 at the time began complaining of stomach pains. After initially being wrongly diagnosed we discovered it was pancreatic cancer she had. She spent the next 6 months slowly dying before mine and the families eyes. Naturally during this traumatic period I couldn't really follow the saga of owens transfer on a minute by minute basis. Forgive me for this minor distraction O great one and enjoy your superioty over me, I hope its been worth it.

What debate is this NE5?

I never thought I'd see the day that I really was 'pleasantly surprised' by the antics of a Newcastle owner.

Dunno Did he?

Fat Sam got far better treatment when he left than SBR did.

Merlin Robson was under contract at Barca and as a gentlemen of his word he honoured it. As for knowing van Gaal was getting his job at that point and wanting Barca to sack him - well thats the first I've heard about it. Have you got a link to back that up? You may also wonder who took the huff at the club when gullitt was appointed because no one approached SBR at that time.

In his last season Sir Bobby Robson got 5th and a Uefa Cup Semi Final that was the maximum that "wasn't good enough"? Dear me how many many more utterly useless arguments are there that agree to a sacking of a man 16 days and 4 games into a new season after getting us 3rd, 4th, 5th playing Champions League football and consistently qualifying for European competition? How long will this club have to wait till we hit the heights of Sir Bobby Robson's 3rd, 4th, 5th and Champions League football again? a very very very long time but such is the reality when you get rid of something special you get exactly what you deserve. We sacked a man who had got us 3rd, 4th, 5th and Champions League football, a man who had won 10 major trophies as a manager, a man who is the most successful British manager to manager abroad winning 7 trophies in 3 different top leagues in Europe (Spain, Holland, Portugal) managing the likes of Barcelona to European Cup glory, a man who took England's national team the furthest its ever been in a World Cup abroad in history we lost a great man but a even greater manager. Don't worry lads Sam Allardyce is the answer just like Greame Souness was "the disciplinarian will sort that dressing room out" and Glenn Roeder was dear me only at Newcastle United. Absolutely spot on. I see the 'Robson had lost the dressing room' line has been trotted out regarding players like Dyer. Thats the same Dyer who was rewarded with a big fat juicy improved contract after Robson left, the lad obviously had friends in high places.

James - excellent post Mick how about proposing to the club a voluntary levy of say £1 on every season ticket for next year only and then using that cash to do something? The fund could then be added to by those without season tickets as they wish.

Count me in for both Mick

A petition to the club to get him some sort of ambassador role sounds good. It would be a massive PR coup for the club aswell on the back of this.

Best manager I've seen at Newcastle. Thoroughly deserved for a true gentleman. Legend

If anyone is into politics the Labour Party has a clone of Garth Crooks called David Lammy (who happens to also be black but thats not what I mean) Lammy has the same patronising manner of addressing an audience and telling them what they already know without having an original thought in his head.

Cruyff Maradona Platini I've seen nothing to come even close to these three at their peak

Garth Crooks is a prize bellend - he makes Lawrenceson look like fucking genius

Again I wouldn't believe the date in the the daily mail. To quote rumours from another rag is scraping the barrel somewhat

Martins Samuels is a fat beardy twat but that article is spot on (even if he did get the idea from watching the second series of auf weidersehen pet) You're right. Unfortunately the American football thing would have been all about money and little else. That's what comes from paying an arm and both legs to build a white elephant of a stadium I remember the debates about the new wembley - particularly whether it should be dual use with a running track for athletics. I think it was Kate Hoey who backed the FA in their football only preference for this £800 million monster. A total disgrace by the FA from top to bottom not to see how stupid it has been to host an NFL game here. Next time the yanks come over with their crash helmets and shoulder pads they should piss off to twickenham if they want to play.

Lets hope so. Some of the Beckham wankfest comments he made were even more over the top than usual. Sack him and that camp fart Lawrenceson and get some commentators who will say it like it is and stop making pathetic excuses when players are inept. Darren Bent was thru on goal and fucked his shot up. This was described as 'unlucky' by these 2 clowns. It wasn't 'unlucky' it was inaccurate - so why not say so? You don't need luck to hit an 8 foot by 8 yard target from 10 yards when you are getting paid 10s of 1000s of pounds a week. You need a kick up the arse if you miss not sympathy.

Has anyone mentioned the Mike Basset/Motsons commentary similarities yet?

How much did Wembley cost for to end up with a pitch like that?

Harry Harris is a prize bellend. His 'exclusives' down the years have been hilarious. I once heard a viscious rumour that Harry Harris actually managed to write an entire story about Liverpool without using the word 'kop' once. I don't believe it myself like

Anyway England can now qualify for euro 2008 thanks to those fabulous red sea pedestrians beating the russkies 2-1. Any chance of a miracle recovery before Wednesday from magic mike so he can pull on his favourite shirt again?
