The Leazes End roof removal was part of a much grander plan, which (thankfully, in my opinion) never went ahead. Basically, the East Stand was the first part and the plan was to complete the whole ground in the same design. The Leazes End was next and after removing the roof and relaying the small terrace, the club ran out of money and left it as it was. The finished capacity on completion would have only been about 40,000 or so and that was with standing areas at the front of all the stands. We would have ended up with about a 25,000 capacity, once all seater stadiums became the requirement.

That might work. If history has taught us anything, it's that dodgy, kitsch old songs work the best when it comes to terrace chants. And if there's something in it like a sha la la la la la la la (clap clap) refrain, all the better.

Should really be: He's Joelinton He only cost 40 million And we all think he's brilliant But he needs more goals... Scans better.

Naa, it's Krul. Given was the Irish one.

Never a penalty, but absolutely given if at the other end.

McManaman

Aye fair comment. Although sunderland are always makem bastards to me, therefore two words.

Bournemouth are AFC Bournemouth

For what it's worth, Leeds won nothing for the first 50 years of their history, so that was their longest streak without a trophy.

He's at the cricket again. Hope he tries to catch a six and gets the ball right in the clems.

Hope that Nosferatu makem cunt Agnew has gone.

"Dee the Hunter!" (little in joke for anyone who's ever been in a North East band)

That's never a free kick mind.

First time I went to Wembley that. Beat the best team in the land Liverpool on penalties (sudden death, we scored ours, they missed theirs) in first round then went out to Fourth Division Tranmere in the next.

The makems have certainly been "slipping down slowly" for a few seasons like.

says "HOW!"

Say it ain't so. I used to love that programme.

The theme tune to the old "How" TV series would work.

I watched the BT version last week. Anton Ferdinand makes Robbie Savage look like Einstein.

Staggering.

The Muslim grooming gang stuff is in their "chat" section.

It really does! Fuckin hell!

Jones said Willock had no pre-season, so is not fully match fit and has been having injections in his injured toe to get him out on the field.

Agreed. Christmas is just round the corner and that Nativity scene will look shite without it.
