A waste of your time? Trying to get tickets? Nah had them by half 11 and I'm not even going. Was good fun listening to 'fans' howling on the radio like I was more referring to seeing Take That as a comparison of ways to waste your time. But both work!

A waste of your time?

Has it got something like "2k5" at the end? If so then it HAS to be fine.

Do it.

Trying to remember when I decided to open that account. Oh well.

Ah man.

Bit strange an Everton fan talking to a WBA fan on a Newcastle board, but (although everyone else won't like it), got to say how well you're doing so far, Di Matteo looks like he's got you playing well and working hard. Hawthorns is a much harder place to go to, though I guess this is really for PM. Anyway, don't think anyone seriously thinks Hughton's job is under threat. Just the media trying to squeeze a story out of nowt.

Well we need Nolan's ENGINE and PROFESSIONALISM so yeah, go on then.

It's the thought that's gone into it. I like it for that alone.

Think they're insignificant to fans of other clubs. On the whole, yes. But from being on this forum and 'following' Newcastle, their twat factor has risen. But otherwise, their club typifies mediocrity. To me, anyway.

Just not fond of them. I'm a right haggler for teams getting undue luck, so them seemingly consistently scraping undeserved 1-0 wins gets right on me tits, the fact Darren Bent single handedly carries them, etc. You're my second team anyway so I see no reason not to support you come Sunday. Edit: I also see a lot of the rivalry, in the Everton-Liverpool rivalry. Maybe not quite so much now but when we were shit, and my word we were shit in the 1990s, there was far, far too much talk of what Liverpool were doing (well, from when I can properly remember, i.e. late 1990s onwards). Only in the past few years has it finally got away from talking about our neighbours. It's something Sunderland ought to do - it's pitiful how much they talk about you, and the Sunderland fans I know exemplify this trait.

I'm going to essentially be a Newcastle fan on Sunday. I'll be supporting you, I'll be in the city from about midday and probably drinking thereafter.

I admire the attempted creativity.

Time on the dole does wonders for one's writing skills.

I'd like to think that was just him hyping up his own player but I fear hope it's another example of Roy completely losing his nut.

He's already on 4 isn't he?

Did he specify a quantity?

Suggestion 2: Just that, for half an hour.

Sky's intro on Sunday, anyone? FLAMES EXPLOSIONS 2 CITIES CARROLL BENT ENRIQUE BENT BARTON BENT HUGHTON BENT NEWCASTLE BENT ?

He's absolutely critical, yes. I don't see us moving downwards (well I was hardly going to agree with was I? ) - we have the best squad and manager that I can remember in my lifetime. The megabucks of City has been a blow since up until 12 months ago we were without doubt better than them, but I see no reason why we shouldn't continue to challenge the upper echelons. For example I think we should (and will) be right in the mix for a top 6 spot this year.

His opinion that we are "sharply on the decline"?

In all seriousness, he's as much of a 'central midfielder' as Tim Cahill is.

This riddle is shit.
