Wouldn't be surprised to see Bayern do some work if they get a good draw.

Should be more than 4 if you ask me. At least 6.

Rosenkrands Lovenkrands will win.

Really sounds like a practice.

Newcastle v Scunthorpe - 19:45 Wednesday 17/03/10 pre-match thread
cubaricho replied to LoveItIfWeBeatU's topic in Football
I'm currently holding off the onslaught of friends telling me I need to be out right now to catch this one on the radio. Hahaha, same thing here. It's almost 70 here and everyone wants to play basketball. 66 and sunny here. I should definitely be outside but I feel like I can use the match a pre-game for the festivities tonight. -

The other side of this coin is that maybe you're not supposed to see the kids. They can be there, but being taken through other doors as to keep them protected from the media storm that inevitably follows the family around. I would find it hard to believe they are just leaving the kids somewhere.

The shear reluctance of the commentators to call it how they saw it was mind boggling too (but not surprising).

Brown wasn't even on the ball either!

I'd probably add Nottingham Forest and Cardiff (even though they are Welsh) in place of Hull and Stoke to start off with.

Would love O'Hara here but I have a feeling he would flounder here for some reason. Be it the pressure or us not really being known as a great incubator of youth and skill. I still would love for us to take a chance though.

Would love for Fulham to get into the final. Great club.

Honestly wish it was confined to N-O. Without a doubt there are these arguments going on around the river Tyne right now. Change the record about the fans mate - if you're not basing it on N-O then I haven't got a clue what else you're basing it on since you're not from the area. Not playing the "whey, I'm a local superfan" card as I don't even live in the North East at the minute, but you seem to snipe at the fans all the time. I thought this was based on the bipolar views you get on this forum, but apparently not if the comment above is owt to go by. I've held my tongue about this for a while because you seem a decent kid and that, but you're always having a go at the fans when they're the main positive attribute of the club, even if there are a few clowns. Oh and to say these arguments are "going on around the river Tyne right now" - they won't be mate, people will have just been out getting pissed and jolly after a great win, simple as. Thanks for the opinion "kid" but sometimes not being close - or anywhere near (in the geographical sense, especially from a different country where team support is far different) - the general fan base gives you a unique view point that isn't layered under the general "newcastle fans are the best in the country" attitude that I see a lot of. My opinion is equally as valid as yours and just because I am not blinded by the so-called "rose colored lenses" doesn't mean it means any less than yours. Do we have the best fans? Yes I think so. Are we sometimes very far off base? Yes, definitely. I catch a lot of shit because sometimes I find our support to be a bit fickle but I don't think that's a really unfair assessment of the situation. I don't really read any papers (in fact I find the English/British "paper" system quite fake and hard to take) so I don't buy into the big press bias that loves to put us down when we're doing well. It's just something that I've noticed, especially on these boards. Sure I am not in the pubs day in/day out in Newcastle but I feel like that isn't necessarily a bad thing and can help remove me from a lot of the local/regional/national bias that engulfs our club. Like I said, do I think we have the best fans? Definitely. Do we need some work? Of course.

Wow the commentator could barely speak "what a goal!"
