this all sounds highly plausible

the broken doll was an exceptional pub, in my humble opinion, the best one newcastle ever produced. the clientele varied and 'colourful' to say the least! was an absolute travesty it was pulled down and ranks right up there with the loss of the mayfair ballrooms and ashley's treatment of keegan as the 3 biggest tradgedies to ever hit our city!

I even clicked on the exclusive video interview with Harty

just in case anybody is remotely interested (and this is a rare picture!).... then back to my ashley hatred and no more pub stuff!

Nah, don't like the thread

Will be interesting to hear what the actual number of people not renewing are. Shrinking attendances and another season with the prospect of relegation will hopefully show that he has gone too far this time.

Its time for the return of....THE DOSSIER

I can't recall if I found this on here but here it is anyway. I loved this pub, often went there before the match in the early 90s.

I think he’s closer to being a peak going off our current transfer activity

So looks like Jos is off now. Since Rafa has left Leicester have broken their transfer record...... Twice. I find the whole situation bizzare. We have no manager and don't seem like getting one. We have the team in for pre season yet are selling players. What the fuck is going on

I’m not trying to have an argument, I’m pointing out that you appear to think a desperate signing of a journeyman player isn’t indicative of a wider problem at the club ie Mike fuckin Ashley. In some ways I’ve always thought Ashley being owner basically absolves most of the players of any sort of accountability. This isn’t a conventionally run top flight club. It’s an advertising hoarding for a chain of shitty shops with some highly inconvenient football tagged on to the side. That’s why Joselu gets a pass.

Throw in Brett Emerton and we've an embarassment of riches in the full back positions.

The Broken Doll used to sell Slalom D lager. You didnt need many of them mind

My favourite pub in town was The Haymarket Hotel. They served a cracking pint & the jukebox was really loud. Saturday afternoons in The Percy Arms playing pinball drinking cans of Red Stripe & double Jack & Coke chasers. Then trying to cross Percy Street to get to the Haymarket bus station, happy days

the egypt cottage, another belter

highlight the local golf courses and they will come

i used to like the barley mow. best jukebox in town and ideal venue pre-riverside gig or shindig. i seem to remember it was turned into some travesty of a bar a few years back

aye! eloquently put!

Beautiful mix of clientele...stoners, students, indie kids & football hooligans. And in the case of a lad I used to know from near Berwick all four put together

Just down the road from Sven's Bookshop iirc

Joâo Gilberto, 88. That bloke what wrote The Girl From Ipanema. Grandaddy of Hipster playlists.

It's not really a blunder when you're paying those sorts of fees. It's a game of roulette that's why those players cost that little.

Odds shortening on Scott Dann signing which means there's money being laid on it from somewhere. Losing Schar and replacing him with Scott Dann would be a real power move. You'd swear we were trying to get relegated in some kind of Producers-style scheme.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk I'm a fat cunt, no time to talk Ah, ha, ha, ha, hopefully not stayin' alive, stayin' alive

What it shines a light on is how woefully incompetent everything continues to be. If that's true, we don't have a manager and they've had two months to look for one.

I know that English isn’t your first language and something may have been lost in translation but we don’t appreciate that sort of hateful term around here. YOU MASSIVE GAY CUNT.

I remember those days. If only Leazes was here to set us straight about the Halls and Shepherd....

Yes.

Re-read that sentence you've just typed out and think about if it's true.

I've just got this.

If, by that, you mean turned him into a player worth £30m

Not sure how the fucker from Whitesnake has the inside track on what's going on tbf
