Scoot

As usual.

Ritchie sounds like he's having a good game. Getting plenty of balls into the box.

Goal. Ritchie or an own goal by the sounds of it.

Just had a look at the Huddersfield game tickets and there's only reason the back of the Leazes under the way fans, the North east corner and 1 section at the back of the Gallowgate which aren't well sold. Definitely think we'll be on course for 47, 48k in 2 weeks time.

Nah, what's weird is claiming landmarks from other cities as your own. Do you get the Angel of the North too, and Gateshead's international athletics stadium? How far south does it go? Do you lay claim to Dobbie's Garden Centre at Birtley? F*ck it, I'm having Seaham Hall as Sunderland's 5* hotel Like when sunderland bid to be a host city if England won the 2018 World cup and used Newcastle and Gateshead quayside in their brochure?

Not like their crowds doubled in the 90's or owt is it?

It seems to be your favourite price for outgoing players.

Thing is talk to them one to one and don't mention football and, hideous accent apart, they aren't too bad. Get them on about football, or if there's a pack of them and the change in personality is astounding. This in bucket loads! I know a load of mackems, in fact I have a canny few mackem friends and they're all great people but my good god, once you get onto football or in particular, Newcastle United the absolute shite that falls out of their gobs is beyond belief at times. Bitter and obsessed is an understatement.

Yeah, cash turnstiles.

mackems claiming landmarks as their own and spitting feathers when something has Newcastle in it's name but isn't from Newcastle. They're a fucking weird bunch. I thought most of them were confined to the ready to groom forum, but it seems they are spilling onto here now. There was one on the news the other day saying "top 6 and yewrup". Imagine one of our lot had said that at some point over the last 10 years, there'd be 3,000 threads on it within minutes on ready to groom, "Deluded mags on the news"

mackems - never let facts get in the way of a good mag bashing story.

Who the fuck starts a thread like that man?

Good bit of knowledge near the bottom of that article... Benitez has combined the capture of players with a track record in the Championship with further heavy spending on Vurnon Anita from Ajax, Jesus Gamez from Atletico Madrid, Arsenal’s Issac Hayden and Gent goalkeeper Matz Sels.

What a day that was. I was 11 at the time and at that point it was the happiest day of my life.

Aye, shame it's not in Newcastle eh? Not really. We don't have to pay for it's upkeep but the myriad of bars and restaurants in Newcastle reap the rewards... just across the Tyne via the award-winning bridge (also Gateshead's, also free to NCC tax-payers) Chuck the Sage in and there's a pretty happy bunch of beneficiaries North of the water. A bit like sunderland and it's....erm. Glass thing? Is that still open? And their flatpack stadium.

Aye, shame it's not in Newcastle eh? Breaking news!!!

could be worse, could be that...

I reckon Obertan's got a better first touch, we should claw in the £30m for Sissoko and unleash feather touch Obertan on the championship. Released, wasn't he? Aye, him and Marveaux were released.

To be honest. Anything at or above 45k is unreal after a relegation! Like I said earlier and someone else mentioned, a lot of people are either on holiday are going on holiday and saving their pennies.

I've often thought similar, like someone's being taught to use the internet for the very first time... "So if I start a new 'thread' it gets published straightaway and the whole world can see it and discuss it?" "Yeah, shall we do a test one? Just type the first thing that pops into your head" "Ok, ermmm.....'Has anyone ever farted and followed through on a bus" "Great, try another" "Lets see.....'Whats everyone's favourite smell? Marker pens for me like" "Excellent. One more?" "Recommend me an umbrella stand'. I'm getting the hang of this" "Good job son.....hang on these have all gone live. And the fart one is up to 9 pages...." This is Ready to Groom down to a T!

This!

Did you read the whole article?

Still over 2 weeks to the match as well though. There's always a lot of people n holiday around the start of the season as well.
