Quickest way to start a fight is to call for a ceasefire, tbh. Well, it is on here, anyway.

Trying to fit in with the TT crowd again, mate? Anything with any depth to it and more than a couple of sentences and your mind goes into a spin? (Note the smiley thing acting as a clue) *Trolling* You do know about the new rule, right?

Not again!!!

Giving you a stiffy is it? No doubt you're off round his house right now, eh..... That would be daft. A 330 mile round trip, when I've got minge on tap right here in Edinburgh? Doubt it somehow.

Giving you a stiffy is it? You wish.

Jumping on the bandwagon, mate. It was a forlorn hope to expect a bit better from you, even though I'm sure that in reality you're not as immature as your chums despite how you try to feel accepted by them on the forum. Oh dear. So I made a teensy wee joke at the expense of your oppo, and now I'm lumped in with the bad boys. What a narrow little world you inhabit sometimes. Just a joke FFS!

This "thing" between HTL, NE5, Gemmill and Alex...all very homoerotic isn't it?

#"Nowhere to run to baby...nowhere to hide"#

No way am I going to read all of that. However, I do hope writing it was cathartic for you.

so you think this season is worse than all the years we struggled in the 2nd division, or were relegated mackems.gif and sold Gazza and Beardsley and Waddle NE5's new single, released soon, will be a cover version of Simply Red's "Holding back the years"... *I'll keep holding on....* Tell you what. Here's a novel idea. How can where we are at the moment be worse than spending any of a number of years in the old 2nd division ? I realise it may be difficult, but try. Well, I suppose we could go even further back into history and bemoan the fact that we used to wear red and white stripes way way back when we were Newcastle West End. Indeed we could. Each to their own. Fact is though mate, there was a time when this season would have been considered a success. Thats a fact. I can't understand how someone who has witnessed those standards can consider this season to be worse. If it's a fact, then where's the link?

aye. The admin person dolt, that drinks with dolts, is setting a fine example. As are you. You dolt. There's only one admin guy in this thread ....... Yeah, I know. I was simply remarking that you were also making a tiny bit of a prat of yourself too...not that I'm immune from the disorder myself...

You trying to get another user banned?

Good to see HTT's plea for sanity is being well-observed. Why does NE5 need a fucking link for everything? Perhaps because he's the missing one...

In which case I definitely stick by my original vote. For me, everything went downhill from that moment Keegan lost his rag live on Sky. I had high hopes for Dalglish, I can't explain why I got so excited by the signing of Tomasson or Guivarc'h but I did... I had high hopes for SBR too, and things looked like they were getting better until the summer before he got sacked. Since then, we've just been on the slide, gradually becoming more and more derided by the pundits, the "top" teams, and generally being regarded as an increasing irrelevance in the Premiership. We're just making up the numbers at the moment. Sure, Souness's reign of terror was like watching a loved one get mown down by a speeding juggernaut, sickening to see the whole Bellamy, Dyer, Bowyer shenanigans...but since that was all just part of a bigger picture of our gradual demise, it's sort of blurred into the rest of the misery.

Nah man, the poll question says "which season makes you feel ill?" which is subtly different to "what has been the worst season?" - easy to see how I voted that way.

I think I misunderstood the premise of the question somewhat as I've just voted for 1995/96.

Puffs, the lot of 'em. Better than being glory hunters I suppose. There's a bloke who drinks in The Crow's Nest and gets on the Metro at Byker, middle aged, long grey hair, broad Geordie accent and wears a Man Utd shirt. I hate the old bastard with a passion. Does he wear corn-rows? He could be a certain someone's father...

Nancy?! Living in Newcastle?!!! Sven?!! Shagging "Geordie dogs"? Pieman Freddie?!! Paying those sort of wages?!! We'll all be wearing red and white and supporting Sunderland before that would ever happen.

Thread moderation more like. Couldn't agree more.

Fans who support the club through thick and thin, who don't moan about us being s*** when we're going through a "rough time". Change the record, granddad!

Lowering our expectations. It's the only way to be happy in the end.

Indeed. Git.
