  1. Which one's? Barney Ronay is a really good writer but a miserable, dreary dullard. I'm a Guardian reader/listener and it produces a lot of great content, but that paper was always going to shit all over the concept of this takeover. When a story like this comes along, taking the piss out of a club/fans is just a bi-product of asserting/emphasising a political position. Same, but its just utterly rancid patter. Big political scandal, ooh, yeah, let's tweet something to windup fans of a club that were subject to a takeover saga 8-10 months ago for shits and giggles. Just fuck off.
  2. I see journalists are goading Newcastle fans on Twitter as a result of these Khashoggi findings. Utter cunts.
  3. All of the BT lot are fucking shite aside from Humphrey regarding us even though he's not a pundit. Hargreaves is ok from what I can remember though tbf.
  4. To think a few across the media were arguing for him to go to Russia in the back end of 2017-18. Whilst Rafa Benitez was his manager. No talk like that in any way, shape or form now. Thick as fuck. Should bring Matty Longstaff back into midfield with Willock and Hayden but Bruce won't as Shelvey lauds him in the press and has laughs about with him on the training ground. Fucking rancid management.
  5. Last night I was pissed and I remember looking for something, whatever it was don't think I found it and no idea why I went back to 2011 on Newcastle Online stalking me were you
  6. Aye. CDM, Fitzgerald etc. Relentless nob. County Durham Mag[/member] , Fitzgerald[/member] , Tubestationatmidnight[/member] , My Silent Face[/member] and now that account. All with the same relentlessly shite patter. So weird.
  7. Probably only 1, like ever. Sheikh Mansour has only been to 1 Man City game in 12 years.
  8. Probably an easy thing to say now but Ipswich should never have got rid.
  9. There never will be an appetite for mass protest and/or boycott from Newcastle supporters and there never has been. The club was a shambles back in the 80s: at the end of 1988/89 we finished bottom and went down after having sold Gascoigne and the first game of 1989/90 was at home to Leeds. The protest group United Supporters for Change called for a boycott of that game. 24,396 still went which was the 4th highest of the season behind 2 games v mackems and a game v Sheffield Utd. Poor results and languishing in the 2nd tier drove crowds down, the gates were significantly low in 1990-91 and 1991-92 prior to Keegan arriving. It was the same in the late 70s after going down in 77 until 82 when again, a certain Keegan arrived. Same in recent years, 2009-10 saw some canny low crowds by our standards due to the manner that we went down the season prior as well as fears for the season. It wasn't until the second half of 2011-12 that saw regular full houses again. Newcastle is far too myopic in its thinking when it comes to boycotts or protests: always has been and seemingly always will be. Results and league position drives the gates down. Everything you've said there is absolutely correct - particularly the last bit about results being the only thing that will actually catalyse any sort of action. Sums up the mentality, really; the bigger picture can wait as long as at least one in three Saturdays are areet. Too many losses in a row and I'm kicking off. It's the mentality of British matchgoing football fans tbh, I find it hard to tar just our lot with that brush. You will only ever see mass protests and boycotts on the continent. It will never happen here, especially whilst the club is in the PL as expectations have been driven down so much due to Ashley, Pardew and the other cunts that have facilitated that. A year of mediocrity in the Championship is the only thing that will change that just like it did in the late 70s and very early 90s. I'm just praying that this nonsense about this arbitration bears some fruit and we get taken over. I'm just sick to death of debating how much of a clueless bell end the manager is, how shit some players are, how much of a cunt the owner is and this tedious debate about fans in SJP. It's just fucking boring.

  11. Ooh, not just a different game but a different season this time. Covering them tracks, smart.
  12. Hi mate. Question out of curiosity here, was your first game Coventry City (h) in 1999 with Louis Saha scoring?

    Just read up about that, we went 2 points off top with a game in hand after that win. Unfortunately Bellamy got injured after that and our next two games were Arsenal and Liverpool, the two teams below us and we lost 0-2 and 3-0 respectively. Watched the 02-03 season review on YouTube recently and Alex Ferguson was at some awards evening with Sir Bobby and some of our players and was asked about us, he said that he thought we would have won the league if Bellamy hadn't have gotten injured.
  14. Be unreal if that orange cunt was involved in a chip pan fire.
  15. fuming. Wasn't it him who elbowed Ayoze moments before their winner at SJP too? "We need the VAR. Right now." Aye. Remember they almost scored on the break right after that elbow too. Abysmal officiating. Deserved to win that even after we went down to 10.

    On this day...

    2 years ago! Almirón's debut, most excited I'd been for a debut in years, bizarrely mild/warm weather in February, first red card given to the opposition in 5 decades or something, expectant of a win and delivering with the only gripe being not scoring more. Mint.
  17. Got to be getting 4 points at the very least against these and West Brom but these two games are starting to look a lot like Stoke and Bournemouth 2016. If we persist with this diamond formation they're going to score through the wide areas and full back channels as a combination of them not getting any help and them not being very good results in the conceding of goals.
  18. Waste of a shirt. Bring Matty Longstaff back in with Hayden and Willock.
  19. Need a minimum of 12 points imo. Sheffield United at home is the only one I can think that we'll win. And we need 4 points from the next 2 at least.
  20. 2 goals down and he takes our 2 most creative players off with 15 minutes to go. This says everything about Bruce and his losers mentality and it's infected the players. Get rid now and it could be cured.
