  1. Another Laurent Robert. God we've missed some French magic in the past few years.
  2. 'Nee bother lads, we're areet. Got Sherla if wor Demba's knee gans'
  3. So nice to have a team to be proud of for the first time in years. Must be the first time since Bobby was here that we've gone to Old Trafford and I genuinely thought "we've got a damn good chance of getting something today", and by god did we deserve it. Aye, the penalty decision was wrong, but the was the only thing that went our way from the officials. Rooney was a lucky boy, even if he didn't connect with Colo, the backlift he put into his 'attempt' to win the ball was wreckless and could have caused serious injury. His petulance again showed a total disregard for a fellow professional's safety, as it did in Montenegro. It's a sad day when Ben Arfa is booked for being upset about an assault on his mate, yet Rooney gets away with a 'forwards challenge' comment. Similarly, it was a poor decision from the lino, but how much shit luck have we had at Old Trafford over the years? It never gets mentioned because 'United' are the media darlings. Ole Gunnar Soljskaer's assault on Rob Lee in 1998, Barthez' assault on Shearer in 2004. Ferdinand's and his fellow player's reaction to then gang up on the linesman to try to intimidate him into his changing his mind. So much for the 'respect' campaign. They showed exactly what they are: sore losers. I think I speak on behalf of the whole country when I say: http://jokesprank.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/haha_cartoon.jpg
  4. I guess this is what happens when you get to January 31st with only two fit CB's at the club and think "nah, we'll be alright".
  5. Player contract played out in player domain = player leaving the next summer.
  6. Reckon the Mackems have ever realised that when they sign off everything they ever write with "FTM", they're showing their support for Female to Male Transgenders? Google it...
  7. Police advice may be due to the fact thousands may try to gain entry without tickets (which is fairly easy to do at Gateshead isn't it?) and therefore it could become a safety issue. Can also be switched if both clubs agree can't it?
  8. Aye it can certainly increase your chances. When sky sports put the graphics up they usually stick about 80% of them in the same corner. Shearer most of the time went to the keepers right in the top corner etc.
  9. Yep, Barnsley away in the Championship was the same. Our away support is fast losing it's reputation of being hardcore loyal fans and becoming a pissed up charver kids day out.
  10. Cracking finish. Left the keeper with no chance.
  11. Krul Simpson Taylor Coloccini Taylor Ben Arfa Guthrie Cabaye Gutierrez Shola Ba
  12. Good effort from them (despite the apostrophe being the wrong way round)
  13. Looks like we could have Virgin Money on our shirts soon. Branson's just bought out NR for 747mill!
  14. Pretty much this. Unless someone offers him silly money, we'll be his free global advertising. Same for the sale of the club.
  15. We just don't understand how fucking horrible they can be.
  16. If we take the same policy with clubs not selling away tickets at SJP then the costs should effectively net off over a season, or even leave us with a slight profit as we have a bigger away end than most. If they really think people will believe that the couple of grand saved from not taking a bigger allocation will be invested in player purchases, well they really don't deserve to share the same oxygen as us.
  17. Poland, England, Greece and Denmark would be even better.
  18. Just realised im watching a delayed transmission on ESPN. What a clown
  19. Germany 1 up v Holland, not been impressed with the dutch keeper so far like. Seemed a Harper-esque attemt to save the goal.
