  1. I really am getting f***ed off now with these people who assume because you have more of an issue about going to back your team rather than whinge about it's board room that you're some sort of inferior fan who is a disgrace. Find it amazing how all these mad passionate fans come oot shouting and balling when there's something wrong, or something to complain about...but they can't go to sing and shout and ball on a normal match day. f***ing ridiculous.
  2. He has something like 5 goals in 50 caps. It's hard to be under-rated with stats like that. Good team player no doubt. I think he provides something good to the team.....considering he is by far inferior in ability to the likes of Rooney. He basically ran the front line tonight for England, and ran his socks off. He gave his all and did well as a target man, causing a good Croatia a lot of problems. I personally feel he is made a scapegoat and is similar to the likes of Ameobi as far as stick is concerned. He gets a lot more grief than he actually deserves, and does a decent enough job "causing problems" even if he isn't very prolific at all. Oh no doubt I agree that he played well tonight and has often played well in an England shirt. And i agree when the chips are down he is made a scapegoat out of. But when Darius Vassell has scored more goals for England you can hardly call him under-rated as I doubt many strikers have 48 caps and counting with 5 goals. Fair point I guess.....I'm not sure, but just out of curiosity how many has Owen got along side Heskey for England? Do you know?
  3. It is a disgrace that it is shown on Setanta and not normal channels like BBC. Shows how pathetic this country is going as far as football is concerned.

  5. Heskey = Englands Most Under-rated Player
  6. The sending off effectively killed the game...and it was never a sending off. However, they should ahve had someone sent off for a second bookable. We played some great football, and I don't care what anyone says, for someone with a limited amount of ability - Heskey does great for England imo.

    Hull...Protest?

    Thats a great point. A 2500 word essay on this topic, to be handed to me on Saturday please. :-) I'll try....

    Hull...Protest?

    One question I would like answering...is how come people only feel so passionately about making their voices heard when something bad happens?

    Hull...Protest?

    Bit over-exaggerated but I can kind of see where you're coming from. To say it was all Keegans doing this last 15 years is a bit extreme. Think you have Sir Bob and a few others to think of tbh....not just King Kev.

    Hull...Protest?

    In my eyes that statement by TU about Keegan and shite was pretty piss poor. I'm passionate about the Toon Ultras and what they aim to achieve, but I think in this case we've done nothing to help ourselves. Hence why I posted a new article on the front page.

  13. Fair points, and aye...definately include SBR in that. Like Edd said, it's probably because most of my memorable moments are Shearer related due to my age.
  14. What do you mean dare you say it not even Shearer? Shearer will never be as loved as Keegan is. Might just be different generations, but Shearer means more to me than Keegan. Get out of town. I can't believe you're questioning that TBH. If you are 20 or under then at best you have a vague memory of 1 or 2 seasons under Keegan, but you spent the whole of your formative teenage years cheering on Shearer. Of course for a lot of fans Shearer is more loved than Keegan. And importantly that applies to younger players too. *BTW I have no idea how old heza09 is, just voicing my opinion I'm 18 mate. Thing is Shearer is our record goalscorer at the club, and in the Premiership. I don't see how it was such a stupid thign to say no matter what age I am....?

  17. Ashley paid off, what £150 mil of debt? I thin kthats a pretty serious situation for starters. & Ok, we havent spent a lot, goes without saying, but we still manage to have, what looks like, the best squad we have had a few years now qouldnt you agree? Yes, but everybody else has a better squad than they had a few years ago. We'll still finish in the same place with the squad we have and all the disruption. Just because clubs sign more people doesn't mean they are necessarily better. Robinho might not be the answer for Citeh, Modric might not be the answer for Spuds, etc, etc. Our signings have shown as much promise as any of the others in the PL so far tbh...
  18. In all honesty.... The signings we have made appear to be top notch signings, for relatively cheap prices. Obviously we cannot judge too much atm but like so far they have been class, especially spiderman. If Wise is making these sort of signings, Ashley is saving this money, our debts are wiped ( ? )...do we really have anything to complain about the new regime as of yet? If Keegan didn't like their plans in a way it's tough shite. We'll have someone who does fit into their plans. No one man is bigger than our club, dare I say it not even Shearer. I know this will spark a lot of debate....I just think that even though I too believe we are far from having everything fine and dandy, we are hardly in a crisis and therefore am most likely not going to be protesting, or at least not as extravagantly as a lot of others will be. Anyhooo.....
