  4. Link Stats good news for boss Roeder Dec 2 2006 By Lee Ryder, The Evening Chronicle Glenn Roeder wasn't everyone's choice when he was appointed as Newcastle United manager on a full-time basis back in May. United had to go to war with the Premier League just to get him in the dug-out, but by the time he guided the side he captained as a player to seventh place and back into Europe, sections of the Geordie public were beginning to see the benefits of giving Roeder the reins at St James' Park. But while his honeymoon period is certainly over this term, slowly and surely, United have shown signs in recent weeks of climbing back up the table, following draws at Man City and Arsenal and a win over Portsmouth. It's true that Roeder has lead both West Ham and Watford to seventh place before - which was quickly followed by relegation. Yet, while many sceptics feel that Roeder is on the brink of a hat-trick with United, a different statistic tells a different story when it comes to life under the Londoner - Roeder is currently Newcastle's most successful ever manager! Since Roeder took charge he has enjoyed 22 wins, 10 draws and 11 defeats in 43 games - leaving him with the best win percentage. For Newcastle website www.toonarama.co.uk has chalked up a remarkable set of statistics that puts Roeder at the top of the tree when it comes to Toon bosses. Roeder has won 62% of his games so far, although it has to be said that he has been in charge for less than most of his rivals. Not surprisingly, Kevin Keegan comes in behind Roeder, with his win ratio at a healthy 56%. His nearest rivals are George Martin (49%), Sir Bobby Robson (47%) and Duggie Livingston (50%). But at the bottom of the pile is Ossie Ardilles (21%), with Richard Dinnis, Bill McGarry and Jackie Charlton for immediate company. The guys at toonarama.co.uk also point out United lost 40% of their games under Ardilles - losing even more were Norman Smith (48%), Richard Dinnis (46%) and Charlie Mitten (44%). Keegan (24%), Martin (25%) and Robson (28%) lost the least percentage of games. Roeder also finishes top of their points-per-game table - based on everyone picking up three points for a win. This gives a more accurate reflection of the managers' success at the club, but the top five is relatively unchanged - Martin and Livingstone exchanging places due to Martin losing a much smaller percentage of games. The bottom five also stays fairly stable, but Jack Charlton moves up due to his significantly lower percentage of defeats. For more information on Toon stats visit www.toonarama.co.uk

    stupid question

    Because we played in the UEFA Cup on Thursday, meaning we can't play on Saturday & Chelsea play in the Champions League on Tuesday meaning they can't play on Sunday.
  6. Bellend will be sold in the summer, probably Portsmouth or someone of that calibre
  7. "Hold on there lads" indeed. It's like when MTV in the US used to put subtitles up for Noel and Liam Gallagher. on this programme they put subtitles up for the geordies in parts!

    Ronnie Wallwork

    UPDATE: Ex-Manchester United player Ronnie Wallwork is recovering in hospital after being stabbed seven times at a private birthday party. The 29-year-old had just arrived with his girlfriend at the Sugar Lounge bar in Manchester city centre when he was attacked. The knifeman approached him without warning and stabbed him in the hand, stomach and back. An eyewitness said: "Ronnie tried to fight back. There was no argument. He seemed to know Ronnie would be there. "It all happened in the space of a few seconds." Friends and bar staff rushed to help the footballer, who was bleeding heavily, and calm his shocked girlfriend. Wallwork was taken downstairs and given first aid before an ambulance arrived to take him to hospital. Eye-witnesses said the attacker was known to his girlfriend. Sources said the man was a love rival. A spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: "We are looking for one particular person in connection with this attack. "We have spoken to several eye witnesses to the incident and we are currently examining CCTV footage. "We are very hopeful the attacker will be caught shortly." Wallwork, who played 19 league games for the Red Devils, is now recovering in Manchester Royal Infirmary. Now with West Bromwich Albion, he is currently on loan at Barnsley. Police say his injuries are not life-threatening. The Sugar Lounge is a self-styled VIP club, regularly visited by celebrities, footballers and models. It is also open to the public. http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30000-1242658,00.html

    Roger Tames

    tbf he is the producer of the dvds too unsure.gif Really? In which case he should fuck off even more then! Some of the tapes/dvds have shoddy in terms and producing, with text playing over the top of certain goals and all, very annoying. go to the credits at the end of the dvd and you will see blueyes.gif
