Still a 9 for me, but we're getting cut adrift from more and more teams with every game.

What is it about this club and their ability to implode in a second? There was nowt in the game 'til the Coloccini error. Look at our games v Arsenal, Man U and Chelsea. Arsenal game, we miss a penalty at 0-0. Man U game, we were doing ok at 1-1 until R Taylor chests the ball down for the mancs 2nd. Then again today we shoot ourselves in the foot. They really are infuriating.

He was walking badly as he walked round the pitch at yesterdays u18s game. At one point the ball rolled off the pitch and down an embankment. Sam went down to retrieve it, but complained about how steep the hill was as he clambered back up. Surely he can't be as lazy as Shola.

On Look North, they stopped Lambias at the ground and he said they would be in touch with the press later. He had his chance to deny stuff then.

Hope the new name brings us a bit more luck there. The place is an absolute graveyard for us.

I watched that game while hanging on to the advertising boards in the "Scoreboard" end at the Gallowgate, from where my forum name arose. It was absolutely chocka in the ground on that fantastic day.

I thought that might be the case, that they were booing the decision, but Lovenkrands seemed to be struggling at that point, so i can understand the decision.

9 now. Not quite doomed in view of the home games against boro, pompey and fulham, all are win-able, as is Stoke away. Beat Boro and we'll more or less put the final nail in there coffin. Win against Pompey or stoke and we'll drag them right back down. It's all talk though. The team have to go out and actually do it.

I don't know how Shola ever made it into the professional game, but some of our fans were a disgrace when booing him onto the pitch yesterday. If people think he's not making an effort when he's playing then i can understand him getting some stick, but to boo him before he's involved in the game is not on.

Have you seen the state of some of the people at games even with the situation as it is now? I like a drink, and have been guilty of being stotting drunk at games meself. I think we get enough as it is. Imagine goal celebrations with people carrying pints. Everyone would just get soaked, which might seem a good laugh when you've had a few youself, but not such fun when you're sober.

Maybe that's true, but it seems in this case the Arsenal fans were merely sitting on a coach when it was ambushed.

How many times have fans of British clubs been stabbed by Romans now? It happens almost everytime a British club go over there. Absolutely nothing is done about it either. There's outcry at the very hint of disorder by fans from this country, but it seems it doesn't work both ways.

Will still go next season. It's like a marriage isn't it? for better or worse and all that. I've definately got grounds for divorce by now like.

Anyone? I'm not sure why he walked in 1997, but he had transformed the club completely by the time he did. All those people who think he should have battled on longer than he did this time around, surely realise that he would've been held responsible for the non-performance of any players recruited for him, eg Xisco. Unreasonabe circumstances in which to continue IMO.

It got criticism from me because I signed up to a three year commitment to a season ticket last year. We were told that we were getting a discounted price for doing so. Now 12 months on anyone can have the same price, without the commitment for another 2 years. So the benefit of me signing up for a season ticket for 3 years now are what exactly? Fine he has brought the prices down in general, but why s*** on the fans who have commited long term to the club? Aye, I agree with your point blefuscu. I'm signed up for D/Debit also. Personally speaking, i'm not too disappointed, because me and the bairn sit in the family section. The cost of our season tickets this season is already £112 cheaper than they were last season, so i'm mindful of that, but you're right in saying that we will be getting no more benefits than those who haven't commited themselves.

It must be bad for those who do turn up at Darlo games. One minute they're watching a side challenge for promotion, the next they're practically out of the race because they've been docked points. It's ironic that some casual fans may think, why bother turning up to watch a mid table side, with nothing to play for? This results in them getting even less cash through the turnstiles.

I wish Wise would just f**kov.

Pies are Ok, once they're cool enough to taste. They're usually hotter than the sun when you get them. Rip-off price though.

Yes, I went every time we played them. It was a horrible ground, on a par with Cambridge but it was a good day out. Nice place though, if i remember correctly? Very picturesque and all that. I've seen games at the following: Newcastle(in England and Wales) ---------------------------- SJP Molineux Filbert St Griffin Park Anfield Madejski Stadium Glanford Park Valley Parade Old Trafford St Andrews London Road Feethams Villa Park Bramall Lane Boundary Park Gay Meadow Stamford Bridge Loftus Road The Old Den Meadow Lane Highbury and Emirates Turf Moor Elland Road Millmoor Goodison Park Portman Road Prenton Park Blundell Park JJB Stadium Hillsborough Leeds Road Dean Court Upton Park Selhurst Park Victoria Ground(Hartlepool) Maine Rad and COM Stadium Highfield Road Brunton Park Craven Cottage Bloomfield Road County Gound Roker Park and SOS Baseball Gound and Pride Park Brisbane Road Reebok Stadium Home Park Gresty Road White Hart Lane City Gound Fratton Park Keepmoat stadium NEWCASTLE(at what are now non-league/extinct) Ewood Park Oakwell --------------------------------------------------------------- Ayresome Park and Riverside Boothferry Park Vicarage Road Seamer Road(Scarborough) Hawthorns The Dell Abbey Stadium(Cambridge) Wembley(old) Millenium Stadium The Valley Manor Ground(Oxford) Kit-Kat Crescent(York) Gateshead Stadium NEWCASTLE(in Europe) Other European Scotland ----------------------------- -------------------- ----------- Monaco Estadio de la Rosaleda(Malaga) Love Street and Greenhill Road/St Mirren Park Juventus Celtic Park Metz Ibrox AS Roma Tynecastle NAC Breda Easter Road PSV Eindhoven Fir Park Barcelona Douglas Park (old and new) FC Zurich Rugby Park Zulte Waragem(In Ghent) Brockville Eintract Frankfurt Firhill Almondvale Dens Park Tannadice East End Park Cappielow Palmerston Shyberry Excelsior Starks Park Forthbanks Hampden Park Firs Park Shielfield Park

Went for Spurs 'cause of their supposed big club status, Boro 'cause they're NE rivals. Went for B'burn 'cause of big Sam, but was very undecided between them and Stoke. Stoke's a place in the middle of no-where, with a horrible team and an element of horrible hooligan fans that are living in the dark ages.

Absolutely vital win yesterday. Other results went for us too. The new signings may not be "box office" signings, but they all seem hungry and determined to do well for us. Long may it continue. Newcastle being Newcastle, they had to keep us hanging on a bit towards the end. My nerves couldn't take it. I thought i was going to end up in hospital with big JK.

I'm going to Hearts v St Mirren in 2 weeks time, the day before we play Everton. Occasionally watch St mirren when the Toon have no game. Go to about 3 games a season.

This job would make anyone ill. He's a decent man it seems. He's just took on a massive job that's all. Sadly, too big, i think.

Taking banners to games that make reference to your local rivals, even though you aren't playing them. Exactly what the Mackems did the other night at Blackburn, with a huge "FTM" banner. Obssesive or what? If i was going to spend time/money on a flag, i'd make sure it had something to do with my own club. I agree with those against playing music after goals too. I'd love to kick that DJ at Wigan all over the ground. Not that i'm bitter against them of course.

Toon: Keegan. A world superstar who came to play for us in the old 2nd division. For ability, it would have to be Beardsley. Asides from at the Toon, i haven't got a favourite.
