no juve, dont...dont get any more you fuckers

you can calm it a bit now ha

Sorry mate that article is so full of holes it is like a journalistic sieve. How many people refuse to eat bacon ?? It was a stupid throw away line on an equally stupid program. Newcastle did hold the Royal Charter as far as coal was concerned, and it did cause a great deal of pain and animosity. That much is true. Newcastle was Royalist, only in so much that the castle was invested with troops under the Marquess of Newcastle, who were there to protect the coal supplies The ordinary people were not allowed into the castle, and offered no protection from it. The ordinary man was more than likely a Roundhead sympathiser, but you don't publicise that view to loudly with the enemy army on your front lawn. Durham, the Bishop and County Durham was also Royalist, and had troops, there was also a garrison at South Shields. If Sunderland had been a Roundhead base it would have been crushed in short order and wiped from the map. A Scottish Army came down to capture Newcastle, and to effectively cut off coal supplies to the rest of the country. The Scots were repulsed . They then attacked small towns, villages and communication lines. The Royalists from Newcastle and Durham and Shield went out to meet them, to stop them destroying and killing the unprotected. This includes Sunderland, which was being raped by the 'old enemy' The only connection with Sunderland was that the Scottish army , under Earl of Leven retired there during the Battle of Boldon Hill, while the Royalists retired to Durham. The Scots used Sunderland as a supply base, in reality they marched in and took what they wanted. To imagine that a secret Roundhead alliance welcomed them in is laughable, Sunderland was occupied by a foreign army who ransacked the place. The Scots were highly unlikely to allow Englishman to join in with them. The Scots were not just fighting the Royalist but moreover killing Englishmen and hoping to retain any land that they held. That is not to say one or two looters did not tag on to the Scots coattails, while the Scots took what they needed from Sunderland. There were no Roundhead troops based in Sunderland because it was of no strategic importance what so ever. To say that there was a Scottish / Sunderland alliance is ridiculous in the extreme. More like history been airbrushed out of shame. The Royalist Army was not raised from Newcastle. They were Royalist supporters from further afield, only stationed there to thwart the Scots The Royalists and Scots fought over 4 days and retreated back to Durham and Sunderland respectively. There was no outright victory to either side as the Battle of Selby ( a Royalist defeat) forced both sides south. Newcastle was NOT taken at that time by a Scottish army and a handful of Mackems. Although a Scottish army did occupy Newcastle AFTER the Royalist defeat at Marston Moor. Only the Mackems could try and turn this imagined traitorous act of siding with an invading army as so kind of virtue, especially when you think of what the Scots did in Sunderland over those four days. Aaah wuz theyur when us and the Jocks took the mag kernts., marched on boldon hill tbh

i expected to see ba included

Takes me to a login page. What was it? something like 'mags flying to 9th most dangerous airport in the world.......just saying' followed by 'pardews babes' and 'if all them deluded bastards die in the sleep i'd wake up a happy man' .... and other such classy comments although a few did actually call them out on it

i think they will, and i think they'll be well up for it going to be tough

to the offy

aye, saying they had trouble last season....they mustn't realise that the place is now going to be heaving with geordies drinking through the match rather than being in the match never mind, will still be a good trip. wonder whether people with loyalty points who aren't going will be able to obtain tickets for mates etc, just have to wait and see

fuck, canny trip to brugge for me with no match ticket then

Not the strongest but hoped to see ba and possibly cabaye there. A first choice striker and cabaye for more game time, although can see why cabaye's being left for sunday. But Ba could easy be the difference between 3 or 1/0 points.

as if we don't want to let playing in europe get in the way of qualifying for europe.

doesn't look too bad a team actually but would still have liked ba to be there also want to see anita full back with perchinho in the centre with bigi

this. although i'd probably do a Pardew fist pump and have a celebratory pint if rat boy got his face kicked off

Sorry but all this s**** about fletchers conversion rate is bollocks, people trying to make it come across as a negative he's scored 3 for them already ffs that's all that matters. Sure cisses would have been similar when he joined us yet we would have seen it as fantastic. Petty as fuck tbh.

i only really started betting at the euros about 150-180 down since the euros should really just not bother tbh

kind of feel for the <100 paying and travelling to see what is essentially our reserves

home game mate

thought some of the reasoning behind leaving ba on the bench on monday would be to keep him for this...obviously not. well, not confident of this at all tbh. think we might be taking these a bit too lightly.

thought that myself just had a quick look on 365 on me phone, 3/10 so it'd bring in £12. not sure i'd be risking that tbh

Can you blame them...what with his imminent knee explosion and all

colo and tiote expected back for this? would really expect a convincing win if so.... all this optimism...what could possibly go wrong

leeds let me down for 60 odd quid from a 2 quid accy as well bastards

awesome

blamed hart at first there, not his fault like haha gtfi
