would be surprised if none of Terry, Lampard or Gerrard have a bash like.

As I've said before I think it's fortunately rather than unfortunately that we can't vote on everyday issues I meant unfortunately in regards to some who might think there's more than just an annual vote involved with being an investor. Theres always the sorry scenario that those wealthy enough to invest aren't too clued up on football and where the best interests of a club lie. Sound familiar?

I'd imagine that it would work around buying shares in the club, and having a vote on who you'd want to appoint as chairman, or "president" to use the continental method. If there's a chance to attend meetings as a shareholder, I'd imagine it would only be to hear the pitch of potential chairmen. Unfortunately I think voting on everyday issues are just pipe dreams at the minute.

a mate of mine claims to have seen an elderly woman knitting somewhere in the Gallowgate. I don't believe him so didn't post it.

a bloke in front producing a tin of hot dogs with ring pull and just start eating them. Slightly odd bait to bring to the game. A ball boy try to climb an advertising hoarding in the Gallowgate to retrieve a ball that he himself didn't need to get, and taking about 3 hoardings down as he fell over it. also, a bit off topic, but there used to be a group of blokes sat scattered about behind where I used to sit in the Milburn paddock. It was obvious they used to know each other. Each game, when the crowd went a bit quiet, he used to shout at the top of his voice something to his mate who he called "Paxo". Such things included, "hew, Paxo, did you shag that fat minger last night then?" "Paxo, hows the shits holding up?" "Paxo, are yer balls still itchy?" etc etc. Used to provide quite a few laughs.

I don't know if I'm pleased Hull won or not. I fucking hate them, and want them to go down, yet at the same time Tango is still in a job and thus in the public eye to laugh at. My brain is beginning to fight with itself.

just walked into the living room and my housemate was watching it. Izale Macleod should be off. Full on elbow to a Northwich players face off the ball.

it was funny, I laughed when I saw it, and I'm unhappy it got confiscated. Well done for trying. However if I was told a banner was being made, and it was my decision what to put on it, I wouldn't have had 'rapist'. If you make another one, try to think of something a little bit more articulate or witty. The 'Not wanted @ St. James' ' works well with it being a play on the rename

its so lovely watching Hull get beat.

I bet they weren't ankle socks either. Unstylish twat.

I'll buy that. Rob the DJ played it at HT yesterday. Its available for free donation on www.sirbobbyrobsonfoundation.co.uk You're not required to pay, but there is an option to make a donation.

Talkshite's reporter for the Hull game is going on about it. "Wretched naming of the stadium". "I don't know who's advising the fella, but every week they come out with something, and its like shooting themselves in the foot. Then the next week they have to come out with something to try and cover it" "The club is just a shambles. A mess from top to bottom" "If someone steps up with the cash, he'll bite their hand off, obviously". Nothing we didn't know like, just thought I'd post it.

my housemate was in the States all summer until late September. The first time he saw the football league show he thought those opening credits were going to be a new version of 'Vindaloo'

was funny as fuck when they had "problems" for the Swansea-Cardiff game and Manish and Claridge had to talk over the highlights. Half the time they were either behind on what was happening, or not discussing that at all.

speaking of celebrations, Danny Simpsons was pitiful. Run around in a circle waiting for Ryan Taylor to chase him with a grin on his face before finally going to the Leazes.

fucking hell look at Manish standing next to the league table like he's doing the fucking weather

I think the press are just not calling it by its "official title" because they know its a fucking stupid name and also a mouthful. They'd waste a precious 30 seconds of airtime.

that woman on the football league show, "I'm not going to mention it [the new title] because I don't want to give it any publicity". Soccer legend Steve Claridge (setanta sports news' term for him) just didn't want to comment. Appeared that he just thought it was silly.

I noticed they took the pathetic approach of singing "there's only one Mike Ashley" in a poor attempt to wind us up. Also, "you're not famous anymore" - take 3,000 away every game do you?

he's fucking great. Another person who lists him as a favourite player.

Nope not at all, but the expression "fat cockney rapist" while funny, is childish to say the least. Get down off your high horse, man. It's not entirely PC and I feel a little uneasy having held it without knowing what it said but that's football. No one died. Wasn't the point of the protest set to make Ashley feel uncomfortable for the embarassment he's brought to our club? Surely by bringing such a childish banner they only subjected us to more potential embarassment from fellow supporters and the media. I'm glad the protest went well but the wording of the banner seemed a bit uneccessary. I'm past the point of caring what other fans or the media think of us really. I couldn't give a toss what other fans think either if I'm honest. It just seemed to partially defeat the object of the protest, ah well. I thought the point was to embarass Ashley, not ourselves. He probably saw it and laughed his way to the bar. Nice one What would embarrass Ashley in banner form though? Nothing, that's the point. Nothing chanted on the terraces or written on a banner will make him even bat an eyelid So no chants and no banners then? I know Im being flippant, but I'm not sure what point youre making. If nothing will make a difference then why not do something like this as opposed to nothing at all? I know the banner is childish as f***, but it's still a constant reminder that he's a hated man. I dont think it embarrasses us any more than we already have been by him and previous banners. The addage of him being a rapist is true in the sense that he's raped our club obviously. this is similar to my point of view.

stewards apparantly.

did anyone clock the barriers around the posh seats? I'm sure they've not been there all the time...

thought Carroll had a very good game. As did Jose. I noticed Mackail-Smith stopped going down the left after about the third time Jose was first to the ball.
