TBG Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Lawro pretty much said, why would Ashley invest when we're never going to compete for the Champions League spot or finish 5th, 6th 7th. So like most of the media, we should be happy with 10th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Again, I hate the implication that Ashley needs to invest his own money. Investing what we bring in is what the fans rightfully want/expect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A presenter of "Songs of Praise" who is now an Atheist. Well done that man! http://defendreason.ebaker.me.uk/2007/06/jonathan-edwards-looses-god.html Minus points for the "defendreason" website for spelling "loses" as "looses" in that link.

Slim Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Apr 27, 2014 14:02 By Ben Burrows The Northern Ireland winger joined the Magpies in 1995 - but not before his former boss bent the truth to help double his wages 32 Shares Share Tweet +1 Email Getty Magpie: Gillespie went on to make 113 appearances for Newcastle netting 11 times Keith Gillespie has revealed how Sir Alex Ferguson tricked Kevin Keegan when selling him to Newcastle. The former Northern Ireland winger joined the Magpies in 1995 as part of the £7m deal which saw Andy Cole move the other way. But not before Ferguson had intervened a little to ensure his man earned himself a bumper pay day. "After an FA Cup game, we thrashed out terms at midnight in a hotel in Sheffield. Back then I was a £250-a-week player," he told the Sunday Telegraph. "I remember Alex sitting there with a pen and paper, adding up figures and scribbling away. He told a bit of a white lie to Kevin Keegan: 'Keith’s on £600 a week at the moment so he’ll be looking for an increase on that.' "He didn’t tell me this would happen so I sat there with a poker face, giving nothing away. Newcastle were happy to double my wage and an hour later I shook hands on a deal worth £1,200 a week." Gillespie's book "How Not To Be A Football Millionaire" details his gambling addiction that cost him a staggering £7,215,875. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/keith-gillespie-reveals-sir-alex-3464857#ixzz306q2rijE Follow us: @DailyMirror on Twitter | DailyMirror on Facebook Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Triple jump, man.

I was merely implying that it's totally irrelevant. It's a pathetic discipline. It's not like 100m or the long jump where the best can say "I'm the fastest in the world/ever" or "I can jump the furthest in the world" it's literally "Yeah, so I can hop and then skip and then jump the furthest in the world." Fucking laughable "sport" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Can say that about anything then. Not at all. There are others, like curling, but at least it's a discipline. Triple jump is just fucking stupid. They may as well put another bit in it where they have to do a spin or something before jumping. It's just fucking daft.
