think the bradford fire was 3-4 years earler mick. That like the countless other near disasters should have been acted on sooner. Spurs away '87 as close as ive been to it.

Which is completely acceptable of course, because Ponteyland isn't in Newcastle. Just like 'Ponteyland Airport', Marra! I wish we were a proper city with an airport, with planes touching down on Northumberland Street. Would make the city much nicer. I'd love to see someone from RTG draw up a town plan for the redevelopment of sunderland. http://oi49.tinypic.com/262wpih.jpg

Agree mick Pre taylor report, policing and stadium design, crowd control were a disaster waiting to happen. Its tradgic for Liverpool it was at thier game that it happend.

The signing of Cisse threw me tbh, we really didn't need to spend £8m or whatever on a striker when we had one of the highest scoring in the league and looked nowhere near relegation. People will say we bought to buy but we have never done that either. What?

You sure on that? yes

Ashley only wants to stay in this division. This lack of ambition has pissed fans off, and most likely players as well.

nice strike

whats a marra with it?

Anybody remember the thing about 'Taking the home end' at away games. Usually a few doz boys would go in the home fans end and leave during the first half , with a sort of victory parade down the side of the pitch. Seen it at Anfield, Old Trafford, Leeds. and Famously at Roker in 85.

was at many away games round that time. jumping trains and stuff. couldnt imagine my own kids- now that age going to the places and getting up to what I did. edit- National front outside the stadium was pretty usual stuff. one shoved a leaflet in my hand and i dropped it like everyone else was- but cos I was a youngun a bastard of a policemen picked me off the ground by my neck and made me pick it back up.

rotten behaviour- sounds like hooligans in the 50s.

70s and 80s Racism was everywhere in Wallsend/ Toon in life and football.

if there dwarfs in the olympics- why no leprechauns?

personally I think the best view since the stadium was extended is from any of the corners.

Well, not quite. There was also a bloke who pretended to be a serial killer and lead the police away from the true killer who continued killing thanks to the other famous Mackem.

hitler?

they are so obsessed they assume without thinking its about them.

anybody rekon there will be cash turnstiles for home games?

if the players who have had thier heads turned decide they want to do it for us we will do well, if not then we wont match last season, its as simple as that in my mind. whether the players want it or not. pardew can only do so much its up to how much the players want to give now....................

lose by 2 or 3

I think anyone on here that would want Keegan back would need a reality check. well he wouldn't play hoof ball like pardew or shitball like daglish

:lol: edit- you would never hear any of us harping back to a once previous sucesful manager.

Will the people who predicted a big easy win have learned anything today?

villa wasted most of the second. should have been 18mins added imo.
