Aye I know, and I'm the same unfortunately in that I can't afford to go as often as I'd like. I tend to think of 'armchair' fans, as referred to above, as those who are happy to pay their Sky subscriptions and sit and watch at home, and just don't bother to go to games.

I know plenty of people who care more about the club then some of the whining idiots I see/hear at St James Park. I won't disagree that there are lots of idiots who go to matches, but tbf it's easy to care about the club whilst making no effort to actually support them. Caring doesn't really help the team. I'm not sure that's what I really wanted to say, but I can't think of a better way to word it.

good for the plastics like me. It's shite for the real supporters though. Aye, fucking shite.

Would've gone to this as my mate is desperate to go (went to Uni there) but don't want to have to take time off work so now won't be going.

That is so ridiculous it might just work.

Could he smell him?

Bernard it is then.

This is the first player I've had a crush on since Gary Speed.

PM sent. He's adorable.

I've never heard him speak.

FYP. Aye, fair play. You have boobies. I LOL'd.

FYP. Aye, fair play.

'Houghton' is getting right on my nerves too like.

Pretty much this. My respect for Hughton has increased a lot this season but that's more due to how he's just got on with it rather than any amazing display of management on his part.

Think he'll have a canny season in this league like.

Woopee!

What a fucking shit day, bugger all has happened so I've had to do WORK instead of just pressing F5 all day. Bastard bollocks.

I thought the same at first, but we're in the Championship and have no players, so I'll take pretty much anyone tbh.

I never really think of us as the Magpies so I always just assume it's County rather than us.

This is going to interfere with my sneaking on here during the afternoon if I have to go through page after page of bollocks rumours.

Please keep the thread title suitably updated so I can see at a glance whether we've signed anyone when I sneak on at work..

Aye this rain wants to fuck off like, or I'll be turning up in a poncho.

No chance. Aye I think you're right like. Couple of quid on Ranger to score in 90 mins / Newcastle to win.

That fucking bench man.
