Just watched Shearer's pre-match press conference and rallying cry on NUFC TV. Not the best of ideas, bricking it even more now.

I really wish I could get pissed up beforehand. I don't drink but might have to force it down me for the first time in my life on Monday! you've been watching us sober the last few years ? i don't know wether to offer you my sympathy or cut you off as a complete loon. I'll back your decision either way.

That picture is fairly deceptive though - you can't see the "No dogs allowed" sign.

Graeme Danby pre-match. People may say we shouldn't over-use him, but I think it's a great idea for Monday, we need every Toon fan in the ground to raise the roof.

I'd love to say this was me, but unfortunately it wasn't. http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/1590/wahoo.jpg Lucky bastard.

A few months ago I was having visions of every Toon fan at Villa Park invading the pitch after Barton scored the goal that would keep us up. Howay Joey!

Good news. Will be great to have him available for selection.

The red looks awesome. Wouldn't mind the blue either to be honest. Watch it be black.

Mint. Love the 'keeper's shirt too.

I still dont know how Bentdner plays for someone as good as Arsenal. He is utter, utter shit. Awesome finish earlier though with hte debatable offside Mark Lawrenson on BBC 5 Live: "I'll tell you who has impressed me tonight: Bendtner. He's had a good game." I reckon he's being sarcastic again. On the otherhand, he could just be talking shite, again.

Didn't expect them to score that quickly though!

Liverpool will win this 4-3.

If Liverpool play like this on Saturday they'll rip Hull a new arsehole... ...and then probably do the same to us the following week.

Likewise. Guthrie - Smith - Jonas That would be how I'd line up. Keeping Nolan and Butt away from the pitch is pivotal to us staying up.

Have a word with yourself man.

In a 4-3-3 formation, no. In a 4-4-2 formation, it'd probably be a yes. As I'm in favour of playing 4-3-3, I've voted no.

Wouldn't even like to hazard a guess how many pages it'll reach by kick off.

I'm praying the 'Shearer effect' will kick in for the three home games.

Steven Taylor up front and in midfield? Fucking hell. May aswell give him a chance in goal too whilst we're at it. Good with his hands and likes diving around theatrically.

This seems so far away.

Not sure if it was mentioned yesterday but I've just nearly pissed myself laughing at Fat Sam walking around with bird shit on his suit. Pretty shocked it didn't land on his head to be honest, the bastard's big enough!

I'm assuming you missed the zero off the end by mistake?
