No he's not. I've met him once or twice in my local and he admitted to being brought up in the shadow of roker park. Canny enough bloke for a makem tbf.

He sits behind me at the match and you wouldn't say that if you saw him; absolutely shocking dress sense He's on the Journal's punters panel by the way, always respected his opinions, unlike the numpties in the Chronicle. And this article is spot on.

I don't think you'll be far from the truth about getting Keegan and Wise but I don't think it was only them, I think he's brought them all together to get them all working together at this important time. I don't agree about Ashley being miffed about anything as it goes against everything I've heard about him from somebody who knows him. I can back that up. I work with a bloke who is part of Ashley's "inner sanctum" so as to speak and he reckons there's nowt to worry about. Ashley is to use the old cliche, over the moon with the improvement under KK. Talking to my mate on Tuesday, he reckoned all the media nonsense about KK's outburst and how it was received in the boardroom is just that - nonsense.

Not as bad as Bryan Robson and Jamie Redknapp's performance at half time. This is hide behind the sofa stuff. I thought it couldn't get worse after Robson's "United have been the better team...(false laugh) ", but Redknapp's utterly trite "Pat Lampard was a top, top lady" has just took the prize. Hardly going to say otherwise when its his Aunt WHOOSH

And reet infront of the mackems. Did you get showered with cheesy chips or owt? Great pic BTW.

Depends which Mackem supporters you ask - some say it means 'Follows the Mackems' others will tell you it means 'F*** the Mags' Of course it means "f**k the mags" Those who say the former are liars. They are OBSESSED with us. Even the reasonably level-headed ones all toe the party line.

I was there in the middle of the Gallowgate and it was one of the funniest things I've ever seen at a match. The .com comments say it all really. Luton were a horrible bunch of twats, the away trip there was always one of the worst of the season, cos we always seemed to get beat. The miner's strike was still a recent memory and teams like Luton seemed to be the epitome of Thacherism. It really was US against THEM, especially after their performance in the away game earlier in the season. Mind you, I remember us passing the ball around for a lot longer before Kenny sat on the ball, maybes I'm just losing it in me old age.

Keegan for me, but if you're going back that far, then Colin Veitch was arguably more important than Aitken. "Veitch captained the successful United side which won League Championships in 1905, 1907 and 1909, the FA Cup in 1910 and were FA Cup finalists in 1905, 1906, 1908 and 1911, and also represented England on six occasions."

I notice all the people saying the mackem result doesn't matter appear to come from outside of the area. I live slap bang in between Newcastle and Sunderland, work and drink with a load of mackems and I can tell you it DOES matter.

And thank fuck Arsenal didn't give up when they were 2 - 0 down or today would have been a disaster.

And the mackems

Don't forget the Hammers!

Pen to the Arse! 2 - 2 Come on!

Ljungberg!! Get in!

That's the answer. If you have a team of injury-prone players, chances are you're going to go through an injury-crisis Agreed. Also throw in the fact that we have played fuck all games this season compared to recent seasons (no European games and early exits in the cups). When you're playing two games a week all season, you're bound to pick up more injuries.

Cos it's at Anfield.

Is now! Torres

Get in! Crouch 1 - 0

Anyone see Beano frothing at the mouth just there? Over nowt of course. Thought he was meant to have turned into this calm, mild mannered fella. mackems.gif

I have it on good authority, from one of the blokes who was in shot on TV last night as Keegan, Ashley and Mort entered the directors box, that that is EXACTLY what is going to happen.

Clemett's a proper odious little inbred t***. Jeff Brown's a nice bloke for a mackem though tbf, sometimes gets in my local.

Does this ref know the hand ball rule?

...the hill?
