Brucie's bonus press conference Lee Marshall: "OK folks, you know the drill, no takeover questions, no Mike Ashley questions and keep it clean, please, after all, we aren't Joe Kinnear! OK, Newcastle United manager....Steve Bruce!" Steve Bruce: "Hi everyone, pleased to meet you all again." Chris Waugh: "Hi Steve, how does...." Knight Ryder: "Cough, fucking cough!.....(glares at Waugh)....Welcome to the Toon, Brucey. Trinity Mirror regional sports writer of the year, Lee Ryder here, How does it feel to be back wor kid?" SB: "It feels great to be honest, I've always loved Newcastle as they were my boyhood club. Growing up as a Geordie it was my dream to play for them. In fact I can't think of anyone in here more Geordie than myself to be honest with you! Hahaha." Knight Ryder: "What aboot me? Ah was a toon army footsoldier long before ah was a shit hot award winning sports journalist. Are you more Geordie than me?" SB: "Where you from, son?" Knight Ryder: "Seaton Delaval." SB: "Hahaha. I'm definitely more Geordie than you, sonna. I'm from Daisy Hill in Walker, as a kid if you were on a bike it was either stolen or in danger of being stolen. We weren't poshies from the coast!" Luke Edwards: "Is it true you personally transformed the career of a young Andy Robertson, the Liverpool full back and Klopp has you to thank for Liverpool's fantastic champions league winning season?" SB: "Well that's very kind of you, Luke....." Knight Ryder: "So how many times did you wag it from school then, Walker hardman?" Lee Marshall: "One at a time, please gentleman!" SB: "Well, ah helped Andy out but I'm sure Jurgen had a bit to do with it as well. Also ah wagged it about twenty times." Knight Ryder: "Twenty? Is that it? Ah wagged it about thirty times all through school, wor kid. How's that Geordie asseseman, err, assismin, err working going now, like?" SB: "Twenty times in just the 2nd year of Benfield school, kidda." John Carver: "ARE YOU MORE G...G...GEORDIE THAN ME! EH? AHLL TEK ANY CUNT ON! (HIC!) FUCK YIZ AHLL. AH SHOULD BE UP THERE, (HIC), UP THERE!" LM: "Hi security! Lee Marshall here, can someone please escort JC back down to the kitchens, please. Think he's been siphoning off the guests whisky again. Cheers." George Caulkin: "How much of the decision to take the job was based on your parents being from here?" SB: "Well it played a part, I couldn't have....." Knight Ryder: "That was just in the juniors! Twenty times in the juniors! Ask Mala, he'll tell ya!" SB: "Err, I couldn't have made it without the support of my folks." Keith Downie: "Understand reports say that Mike Ashley will give you a £100M war chest. How much was his backing and steadying the ship as well as being a sound businessman a factor in you taking the job?" SB: "Obviously a big part but I've full control of the club transfers and everything." Lee Marshall: "Sorry, everyone..... (Whispers).....Steve, Lee Charnley says he'll agree to a pay-as-you-play deal for Carroll and that's all you can have. Carr's doing the rest." SB: "For fucks sake, err, I mean Lee charnley's trying to get a couple of my targets as we speak. Hopefully can get them over the line." Lee Marshall: "Ok folks, that's it for today, well see you next time." Knight Ryder: "How many tabs did you smoke at school, then? Eh? Eh How many....?" Lee Marshall: "Sorry, Lee, that's all for now." Knight Ryder: "Laters."

I was at that match.

didn't read the thread before posting again

Go back to your council house, you peasant.

Scab!

Just beat West Ham in a pre season friendly. good to see a new manager bounce

Not what what he expects to hear from his loyal puntaz

Wouldn't trust anything local journos say

Finally got a vinyl copy of the best thing to come out of Sunderland, Leatherface's Mush. This turned up in the post as well. And the show I'm working on at the moment is all about early 80s music, so I've been channelling my my inner Gemmil and that cabbie twat but I can't bring myself to Ah-Ha or Yaz so it's this instead.
