  3. Because Big Sam built his Bolton empire on signing players like Beckham
  4. During the Dyer/Bowyer one she actually made them stop so she could give Souness his cuppa
  5. LEGENDARY Newcastle United tea lady Kathleen Cassidy has received a Special Achievement Award following 40 years at the club. The loveable 80-year-old was honoured for her services at The Official Football Hospitality Awards held at St.James' Park this week. Kath first started out at Gallowgate in the early 1960s and has been a familiar face in the club's press room ever since. Every journalist who visits St.James', be it local or national, wants to have their tea poured by Kath, and when she celebrated her 80th birthday recently they all got together to sing 'Happy Birthday' and present her with cake and flowers. Jane Shepstone, director of catering, said: "Although Kath has been under the weather of late, she still turns up for every game, although we have managed to talk her into doing a shorter shift on matchdays now she's 80. "When she had a spell in hospital a couple of years ago, she had a home visit from our then manager Graeme Souness to see when she would be back at work. "Kath is a remarkable woman and when she was widowed a few years ago, she told me working at the football club kept her going, and helped her get back on her feet. "She is loved by all the staff and management, she is so loyal, relaible, hardworking and full of fun. "To be honest, I don't know what Newcastle United would do without her."
  6. It's ok, get a good view of Wembley
  7. 68-1 Strauss gone for 15
  8. Aye, used a photocopy of his nans, brothers, dogs 2005 final ticket.
  9. Out in force today at Uni like. Happy days.
  10. I'd be chuffed to bits with that. Maybe wishful thinking but i'd be more than happy if our starting XI looked like this next season.... Given Baines Ben Haim Campbell Solano Duff Butt Baraja Milner Owen Viduka Have we actually been linked to him then our are you just picking names out of the air? Been linked apparently. By someone on N-O then? No chance of him coming here. I saw Rocker on N-O mentioned him but I saw an article on Teletext with him mentioned an'aal Rocker made that up
  11. Should be a thrilling 0-0. 1120: As BBC News 24's Dan Smith reports from Wembley Way, in the background there is a desperate cry of "Newcastle United for the FA Cup". Just the 52 years since the Magpies lifted the famous trophy. Think you know your FA Cup facts? Why not have a go on the BBC website's Ten to Tackle...
  12. SAM Allardyce's first pre-season programme as Newcastle United manager will include a visit to St. James' Park from Scottish champions Glasgow Celtic. Gordon Strachan's side are heading to Gallowgate for a friendly on Thursday, July 26. Big Sam told nufc.co.uk: "It's a great thrill to be the new manager of Newcastle United and I'm already looking forward to our pre-season matches. "I'm pleased that we have arranged a game with Celtic at St. James' Park. "As the Scottish champions and a side that did well in the Champions League last season, they'll give us a hard match, which is exactly what we will be looking for. "I'm sure we'll get a big crowd for this game and that will make for the kind of great backing I'm looking forward to the team having at every home game." Celtic have been popular visitors to St. James' in recent times, providing the opposition for Peter Beardsley's benefit game in 1999 and, of course, on that unforgettable night in May 2006 when Alan Shearer pulled on the Newcastle jersey for the last time amid emotional scenes at his Testimonial. The July 26 fixture has a provisional kick-off time of 7.45pm. Ticket details will be announced in due course.
  13. Lay toilet roll down all over the seat so your arse doesn't touch it. Particularly useful in public toilets. Ah, no. And your mate's fatha went up the wall because he found some bog roll on the seat of the bog? Was disgusted that his son wouldn't sit on the toilet seat in his own house considering his mam and dad were the only other people that used it
  14. Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
  15. Any Ipod cover apart from the ISkin
  16. 200-3. No excuses for not looking for 400+ here.
  17. Which just means that at some point someone has to clean the dribbles up off the floor, you filthy mongs! If you're not an amateur that situation can be avoided.
  18. The "empty as quick as possible" routine is usually saved for when i'm in a rush. When i have chores to do there is no need to rush
