Scoot

internal and possibly external metalwork- the healing pain after that is absolutely unbearable- like ouyr leg is being crushed in a massive vice. Scratch it a couple of times and it'll be fine.

It must be unhealthy been so obsessed with your rivals like they are. We literally are their whole lives. They go on holiday and the first thing they do is go searching for Newcastle fans. I mean WTF?

He'd have been trying to flog them since the end of last season whilst telling us we can't compete with Burton Albion and Brighton.

It's horrific for their pre-season. Nobody knows what is happening and even the work they are doing now, if they get a new manager he's probably going to play a different way so all this preperaion will be for nowt. Plus they aren't signing anyone.

Great start for Ritchie.

So if we don't smash them, Rafa out? Bed sheet at the ready!

He loves to be the breaker of news. He had used to have post match threads written out ready for when the final whistle went just so he could post it on nufc-forum. Sitting there writing it as the match was going on.

Biggest club in the Championship according to themselves as well. Shutting a fucking stand man, massive club!

People saying get rid, who on earth is going to take this complete knacker?

A slight knock for de Jong will mean he's only out for about 4 or 5 months. Great news.

What's the chances of him falling out of the plane over the Irish sea on his way home?

Their biggish crowds are negated by the fact they charge next to nowt for the fans to get in and flood the place with free tickets. For example their gate receipts are far smaller than the likes of Southamptons are as shown in the last set of accounts. Regarding the free tickets thing, a mate of mine works at Newcastle Uni and found out recently that the uni gets a load of discounted tickets for home games that uni staff can apply for. Never knew we did things like that, otherwise I'd have taken advantage of it whilst I was working there. I'd imagine every top football club in the country does things like this, just not on the scale the mackems do it.

Someone's bound to hate that idea too...

Arguing over Rafa's website man!

Did he bang his head when he got out the taxi does anyone know? Or shut the door on his hand?

Luke Edwards reckoned 2-3wks. Champion!!!

Wonder what timescale is on this? Hope it runs into august.

It just happen to come from someone on this forum.

I agree, i think he is going to be a massive player for us this coming season. Seems like he means business as well with him not having a holiday and losing weight over the summer.

Says he's lost "6 or 7 kilo's". He's had a personal trainer over the summer.

Just picturing that man!

More hilariousness! http://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/the-mag-quoting-my-posts.1251065/ Tells The Mag to concentrate on their own team totally missing the irony that he's just been on the Mag website and read the article. Special!

http://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/ferguson-getting-his-revenge.1251054/ They proper think the world is out to get them don't they?

Its a massive pile of cash I must admit.

Was something in the Chronicle yesterday about how we should have confirmation of his move in the coming days.
