christ Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Used to love The Ramble but completely lost interest when they started pissing about with the line up. Felt like it went from being mates talking about the match to ‘hey, let’s milk the fuck out of this’. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Have to agree sadly. Andy Brassle has decent things to say but has this deliberation in his speech that comes across as him thinking what he's saying is extremely important and insightful. He pronounces foreign players names with an accent as well, which is always the sign of a wrongun who belongs on Tifo or The Totally Football Show. Jules Breach is great imo, proper breath of fresh air and always in good spirits. Vish is quite witty, Kate Mason is awful and constantly interrupts and Lars never shuts up or has anything interesting to say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 It does feel like it has the potential to pick up. Better chemistry, some decent guests, maybe they will give a bit more away into the ins and outs of football. Although I guess they are massively limited with what they can say. Just all a bit crap at the minute. Both seem like nice fellas, mind. Wilson sounds like Sully off Top Boy on this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s alright and I quite like hearing different views from time to time; particularly when the craic on Pod on the Tyne’s can become too much. Anyway, that Charlotte lass on TF is incredibly annoying and I don’t think she knows what the fuck she’s talking about half the time. I enjoy True Faith as think Corby, Norman Riley, Alex even are all very knowledgeable and I like to hear their thoughts. Have to agree with Charlotte unfortunately. Every sentence starts with 'erm' (once you notice it, it becomes incredibly annoying and hard to forget about). Agree with regards to 'GallowgateShots' podcast. Probably my favourite out of the lot. Deka and Besty know their stuff and very easy to listen to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMark Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I used to listen to the Football Ramble; but I’ve just realised it must be a good four or five years since I last listened to it. The Newcastle supporter ones I’ve listened to on the odd occasion - I find them all difficult to get into. They’re basically post match pub conversations, only without your mates, which means there’s no obvious reason to carry on listening unless there’s something wider going on - and I fundamentally disagreed with those who have spent the last decade protesting against Ashley’s other businesses, and then used their platform to wash their hands re the new ownership. Have to agree that Norman comes across as a decent gadgie on the TF ones I’ve heard him on. This isn’t strictly the case for those like Pod on the Tyne or Everything is B&W, which have local sports hacks. But then, I have never felt football is well served journalistically. Though EIB&W can be occasionally distracting listening to John ‘Gibbo’ Gibson reminiscing about times past and talking about his match day experiences with his mate Supermac. You can practically smell the LCL coming off him at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchärMix Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 I'd have loved for Cabaye go to PSG, play for France and win a Euros. Sissoko played 110mins in that final - he lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 An absolute classic 20 years ago today: 2001 Bedlington Terriers dumped United's Reserves out of the Northumberland Senior Cup 2-0. It was the second time the teams had met in the same competition that season, with Newcastle winning the left-over final from the previous season. What was going to be a yellow card for a tackle became a straight red when Jamie McClen gave his name as Santa Claus. An unimpressed referee promptly dispatched him without further ado to the nearby grotto, otherwise known as the changing rooms. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hands down getting an NUFC bootbag and then opening them to see these bad boys as worn by my favourite player David Ginola and by Les Ferdinand. Getting the McEwan's Lager version of the Asics kit and the Christmasses in 94 and 95 getting the coat and the training gear were class as well.

Happinesstan Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 In the late 70s I got the latest kit, aaaaand, a tracksuit with my initials on it. I didn't understand the tracksuit and found it a bit cringe to have my initials on it. But it was without doubt the best toon related Xmas pressie.
