  1. Spurs (A) Arsenal (H) Everton (A) Boxing Day Crystal Palace (H) Last game of the season
  2. http://www.footballshirtculture.com/images/2017/flamengo_2017_adidas_away_kit.jpg Like any shirt, the sponsor ruins it though.
  3. The flag fall out is in the chronicle. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/toon-fan-who-launched-funding-13145321
  4. It's not so impressive. A club that was valued at £120m in the relegation season fell to a worth of around £100m last year. With rising prize money and spin offs for being back in the top league plus the Rafa effect, we're up to £200m. We were so far ahead of Spurs at one point on the commercial and player value stakes when Ashley came in and to compare to them, they're currently worth £540m by the same report.
  5. Chances are that Rafa's first choice was that Florian Lejeune and he's confident of landing him thus telling the Portugese agent that a deal is likely to not happen.
  6. Just when you think that you dont really care about the players of today and say you dont feel part of it like the olden days. Things like this happen to prove you wrong. Each loss still hitting you like a stun grenade.
  7. Seemed an innocent idea by Gallowgate shots to be honest but it has that sense of people getting all huffy as if they feel there is only one group that can arrange flags. Rather than a simple 4 part statement, just a DM and a separate public tweet would have done to say that it's nowt to do with them and they had no issue with it as long as the donations were transparent . Instead we have mentions of police and fraud. People wonder why the fanbase gets split from time to time as well.
  8. I posted a link on the twitter thread but it disappeared about 2 hours ago.
  9. Mine was automatically renewed as im on the 10 year deal. Had to email the club for confirmation mind.
  10. https://twitter.com/happy_hooka/status/871710822204092418
  11. Still no leak of an away strip or even a mention of the colours but continuing on with my belief that it'll be red, Liverpool confirmed their away strip this week in their 125th season. lt is similar colouring to their first choice of home colours in the 1892 season.
  12. There was some mention of a 2nd screen going up a little time ago as well. The only logical place can be beside the executive boxes in the Gallowgate/Milburn corner. Obviously we'll find out although that smell of the steps after it's repaint last Summer never went away all season, so hopefully it's nowt as bold.
  13. If anything, the deal will probably be a sell on % if over 30 m euros and any hold up will be because that's how Mike rolls.

    Players in public

    Was in Hexham meself yesterday afternoon and saw neebody but street sellers trying to sell 'cheap' internet although I had me eye on a couple of recliners in Beales. Was nice and warm weather I may add. Saw a few plates of cars going past that would suggest those inside weren't on benefits and may be of star status. More news when I get it................

    The white version of The 3 Degrees. Sturgeon, Boyle and Krankie. Probably been posted before mind. http://www.idolator.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/09/Susan-Boyle-Someone-To-Watch-Over-Me-album.jpg http://i41.tinypic.com/zkl6kw.jpg
  16. The nail on the head for me. Ashley is tolerated because he is invisible and that's how owners should be. Hopefully this lasts because if it does, we'll have a better chance of being the club we want us to be. As soon as or if Ashley gets involved then it'll all come crashing down.
  17. Had nee renewal letter but the payments are still coming out me bank. On reading that NUFC article on renewing and then logging into the official site, there's no clarification as to whether you have to do anything or it's just continuing. Seems like new flash website but still some of the old crew running it.
  18. The 10 year deal ends in the 2021/22 season but there will surely be another to follow for various reasons. On one hand the financial gains may only prosper the supporter due to the difference in premier riches and the take on the gate but getting more arses on seats gives the impression to overseas fans that everything is rosey in the NUFC garden when most of the time it isn't.
  19. As long as everyone just keeps cool this Summer and just allows things to sort themselves out on the transfer front then we'll be fine next season. The last thing we need is any sort of pressure when supposed transfer targets dont materialise and it puts Rafa on the back foot because I make it more than 50 names linked now. I'll be surprised if 2 or 3 of them are genuine targets.
  20. Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to be exact. You can get the wonga one easily but this was from one store that had a bunch of other clubs jerseys too, not just the popular ones. I'm sure there was one reputable seller selling the blue orange away kit from this season without wonga I'll try find it and post back here if I do. Edit: Found it. Now that is a thing of beauty.
  21. I actually think the West Brom strip is a bit cack. The sponsor name just blends into it and makes it look a bit rushed.
  22. Didn't know he had a groin op like. Kept that quiet.

    Help me Obi Wan Corbynobi, you're our only hope. http://www.labour.org.uk/page/-/site/img/people/headshots/jeremy-corbyn-mp.jpg
  24. I still think there'll be a red away kit based on nowt but the fact that it was the first colour of us in our merging as 'United' back in 1892. If it isn't and it's a 2nd and 3rd kit based on our most famous change kits then we're struggling because it will then depend on which age group you are in. In recent years the obvious choice is the Ginola modelled burgundy and blue hooped kit but to those of us that remember the days of SuperMac, and funnily enough he is in the home strip video, it'll be a remake of this shirt with the light blue shorts. http://cdn1.uksoccershop.com/images/cache/1491814349-newcastle-united-1970s-away-retro-football-shirt-314x0.jpg
