Pretty sure that some police are properly up for trouble as well, I remember walking up to the match on derby day a few years back and my dad just stopping to talk to one copper (probably something quite benign knowing my dad and his crack), bear in mind my dad is in his 70's, and the copper pushed him along shouting about keeping moving or something, I swear the guy was on his toes bouncing like a boxer looking to throw the punch, they get too fired up for it - expecting the worst and because most are fuckin cowards that hide behind their uniform and truncheon they have no idea how to responsibly control a crowd without causing antagonism.... Just look at the state of the US the last few weeks when they get a bit of civil disorder.....

Jews aren't a race and are predominantly white anyway It's just more negative, anti-semitic stereotyping and you've completely missed the point. How have I missed the point? Balotelli posted that as a joke, if anything he should be the one to be offended that this is even being investigated - he has been racially abused on a regular basis throughout his entire life / career! But, if you are saying the joke is OK except for the bit that suggests that Jewish people, as a religious stereotype, are fond of money then I have to say I am sorry. I am quite keen on money myself, so replace Jew with a picture of me grabbing coins and the world is good again.....
-
Is that really offensive to anyone though? I would say that it is generally "white" people who are trying to appear perfectly NOT racist that seem to take the most offence at stuff like that.
-
True, I did think after I pressed "post" about what an utterly pointless post that really was!

I followed Tiote through security at Newcastle airport on 11th Nov but, a combination of the slowness of the security staff to get me through and the bizarre slowness of the pair in front of me to put their stuff into the trays to be scanned meant that by the time I was through he was way gone. I couldn't find him in the lounge either so I guess there must be a very special private lounge for people who are super famous i.e. not for general public... He looked in great shape to me but, I am not a doctor!

Perspective speaking I believe....

The radiotherapy treatment for testicular cancer can damage / destroy the hip joints. Possibly this could be career ending for Jonas. All you younger guys should be checking regularly for anything that feels different down there!! Wake up call....
-
Mystery resolved. Good Luck and get well Jonas!!

They don't tell the media anything, all banned!

He seems to have completed his task of convincing the fans that we are unable to compete against the bigger teams - you know like Swansea, Stoke and West Brom. Now he seems to have also got his message across to the players as well. Dead man walking hopefully!!
-
Perfect!

This kid caught my eye during both games over the weekend. His pace and skills are something that we have lacked in our team for a long time, I am worried that he does not fit the Pardew's model for a timid and tame NUFC though. Being an old fella I also like the fact he wears black boots..... I think they are Hypervenoms or something but, at least they are black!
-
Would be the best thing that could happen to him if he was.... wasted at NUFC under Pardew. Caveat - as are most of the squad....
-
I can assure you that I did not renew mine....
-
Really good point, the whole Premier League experience is what is on offer to "casual fans". Come to Newcastle to watch Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd wipe the floor with the local team. People will turn up to see the stars who play for other teams leaving us fans very isolated and un-necessary.....

The way we are heading we will finish up 11th (if we are lucky) and none of them will receive their top 10 incentive.

Cheers Crumpy, It took more balls to cancel, decision made. Thanks for the confirmation, will pay up this week.
-
Before I pay the payment can anyone on here confirm whether the final payment to cover the current season would need to have been made in February? I have had a call today saying that Jan was not the last payment and in fact Feb should have been and I need to pay it or my ticket will be blocked for the next home match.
-
I was pretty impressed with Cisse yesterday, apart form the unbelievable miss in front of goal. A couple of times his first touch was sublime... considering how little first team football he has had I think he did well. Do not think there is a good partnership to be had with Remy though, they are not on the same wavelength at all, DeJong and Remy - that is mouthwatering though!
-
I just had a reply to my cancellation letter saying that it is not possible to cancel as the window for cancellation ended on 31st January... I actually sent the email to them yesterday, 2nd Feb..
-
Take a straw poll on here: Who has actually cancelled? I will start - I cancelled mine and my dads today. Can't start to work out how many years we had them for. Running total - 2.
-
Just to answer the question about picking and choosing matches next season.... I think it is just lip service to myself to say I can still go to the match if I want to. I dont think I will go again until the ownership changes. But, you are all right paying for something I stopped enjoying some time ago, once it became clear that there is no ambition left at the club, is a total waste. The life has been sucked out of my club and I am heart broken about it.....
-
Me and my dad have decided this morning that we are cancelling today - we have been going since I was a kid - I am 48 now. Shame as I have a great seat with good people around me but, as many others have said I can pick and choose my games next season. I will be calling the box office tomorrow to let them know and will be cancelling the direct debit now.
-
I feel like I could vomit. Never seen such a shite Man Utd team in my lifetime. What the fuck has Moyes done to this lot?
-
I dont know Scocco that well as a player but, surely if he is any good there would be better teams than the mackems in for him.....
