Just while we're on. My mackem connections have been blithering on about the "sunderland ranger". Its the same as our Magpie Ranger, with slightly different lyrics from what I've had to endure (eg. "I want to life a life of danger" not "only live for sex and danger"). Can one of the older folk point me in a direction here? Have the despicable little scoundrels nicked our song? The father reckons he sung it in the 70's and gave a bit of abuse of them not having enough brain cells to make up their own song.

Birtley (88-94), Chester-le-Street (94-07) Heaton (07-present)

Why's it filmed in a convenience store?

Heskey's middle name is Ivanhoe. They mentioned it on the telly before the game last Sat.

got a text off a mate in the early hours of yesterday saying "Just has a piss next to Obafemi Martins" (this is in tiger). However the divvy was drunk and put "Obafemi Martians". So I texted back (when I woke up yesterday morning) "Is that the extra-terrestrial double of him?" Needless to say he didn't get what I was on about.

read in the Times yesterday that only 5 of the 21 from their last squad remain. They sacked some Dutchman (Pjipers or something) and they now have a German as a caretaker manager who has dropped some of their most prolific players. BBC also had an interview online with Pjipers who said that just because the country is growing at an incredible rate (9th biggest in the world by area, and full of oil and gas) that the Kazakh's (sp?) expect their football team to. They saw Russia do well in Euro 2008 and believe they should be on par. And the fucking media here call our fans fickle?

is it me or is "NUSC" just a collaboration of .com/true faith/the mag and any tom dick or harry who agree's can send them money and have the privilege of being a member? IIRC the flyer I got handed before Blackburn was basically just all anti-Ashley/pro-Keegan. To me it just seems like a hastily set-up group in the wake of the events of the past month.

plenty of buyers wanting a prem club,this could actually work out none to bad for them. I'm not prepared to think about that yet.

hahahahaha. They're royally fucked! Owners gone bust, no shirt sponsor. Couldn't have happened to a nicer club...... well, maybe spuds.

chuffed with the fightback. Was prepared to drink myself into depression when we went 2-0 down. Coloccini was at fault, no point Given saying should have got the ball, Coloccini was just left flat-footed. However having said that, Hibbert should have prevented Taylor getting in for his goal. No denying Butt's challenge was stupid, personally I didn't think he needed to go to ground.

first opportunity I've had to listen to it, although I'd read it before. Fucking brilliant!

That was my first game this season, so I'm oblivious if this is a common occurance, but why was there a small group sectioned off by police in the away end?

Taylor and Geremi want fucking shot.

think I'm actually gonna go and pay on the turnstile. I've stayed away thus far in total disillusionment and I couldn't be arsed to get involved in protests, but now it looks like something might happen in the coming weeks, I'm going to go and support the lads. Still don't fancy us like. Fucking hate playing Blackburn.

the father just said Look North reported talks broke down.

if he comes back, this whole thing has been a shambolic embarrassment of epic proportions.

last night? Didn't see them.

Italy: Juve. Del Piero and black and white stripes. Thats about it.

Michael Martin on SSN giving Ian Payne an absolute mouthful. Payne tried to speak about KK wanting Lampard, Martin stepped in and started saying (along the lines of) "who said that? An unnamed source at the club, we don't believe phone calls to journalists making stuff up".

are the tabloids going to tell me today that we're going to win the World Cup?

Nope... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/funny_old_game/7606292.stm

so .cock can run a hilarious little article entitled "When 'Zico' met Zico" whereby they have the Zico and Mick Martin standing side by side holding up Newcastle shirts somewhere inside the Milburn Stand, and a few meaningless quotes from either. Craig Hope might even be able to drag it out into a video interview for nufcTV.

have we got a quote from Poyet himself ruling himself out? Then I'll be happy.

one of my heroes as a bairn. Dunno about having him here as manager though.

is this the Zico? Or do we really just mean Mick Martin?
