Every club in the world will be after him in a year or two.

There were loads of bangers went off during that match. They even mention in the commentary that "Newcastle appear to have cornered the market in firecrackers" It was close to bonfire night IIRC.

Graeme Swann at the end of that clip too

Ashley will be on the phone to his solicitor again

I'd like Adidas to go back further than the 90's for an away strip. I'm sure Big Joe and Bruno would approve of something like this.

I had nothing to do with this before anyone asks!

I'd wager not many on here are going to get that!!

Would I lie to you?

Officially announced this week. Nice vs Villareal and NUFC vs Fiorentina on the 5th and Nice vs Fiorentina and NUFC vs Villarreal on the 6th.

Pre-season games at St James'. The 'SELA Cup' 5th & 6th August. Nice, Villareal and Fiorentina.

How we only won that match 1-0, God only knows. It was a massacre from start to finish.

A PIF-linked shirt sponsor thrown in to sweeten the deal and keep us onside for FFP?

Last time we announced a sponsorship (Noon 27th June) we signed Botman four days later. Here's hoping....

There used to be boxes in the East Stand, so there must be some infrastructure still there. https://www.nufc.co.uk/media/24290/st-james-park-takes-shape-by-the-late-80s.jpg

Liverpool fans conveniently forget they were owned by the owners of the Football Pools in the days before the National Lottery. Everyone did the Pools back then, it was massive. All other clubs were owned by the local butcher, they had a massive advantage.

He doesn't strike me as a leader.

Me neither. It's all about Craig Hope. He could have sat on the Fraser in the reserves story in Cup Final week but couldn't wait to get it out there.

The number of home fans there yesterday with half and half scarves on was embrassing. It looked like a huge number of their support were day trippers.

Making stadiums all seater was the game changer for atmosphere's in England. When I started going regularly in 1980, St James was split into three groups. 15 - 35's behind the goals, middle aged blokes in the paddocks and pensioners and the well off in the seats. You didn't see lasses, pensioners or little kids in the Gallowgate in those days. It was rowdy and lawless and people could get away with stuff in there they couldn't elsewhere. You'd get pushed, shoved and pissed on and any coppers that ventured in, walked out with their coats covered in spit. There was rivalry between the Scoreboard and The Corner who used to egg eachother on to sing and they both used to egg on the East Stand where the Red Indian warbler was. The most you got from the West stand was them stamping their feet on the wooden floor if we got a corner, which did make a decent noise. Having like-minded people in designated area's is definitely the way forward and the singing sections definitely need priority in the lower bowl, there's no point in putting them in Level 7.

Exactly the same. Limp with a bit more possession this time.
