  1. Well I did since you linked it. Thought this was better for a producing a smile. http://www.readytogo...ad.php?t=638426 (It's a mutual love-in about having 4,000 fans at Bolton, 'best fans in the country' etc. Isn't this the sort of stuff we're accused of by them?) Lets be fair here. Not one person on Tyneside is oblivious to the fact mackems are the biggest uncouth bunch of bamps on these islands with more bitterness than the John Smith's factory. However I think a lot of them acknowledge the fact we're a bigger club, with better fans and more fans. We are. However, they've been totally shite, one win all season, out the league cup, a manager about as popular as Souness was with us, so to take 4,000 to Bolton is a good effort that deserves praise imo. There's not many would take 4,000 there with that set of circumstances, none of the London clubs would for starters, Villa? Nee chance. Don't disagree with that, Stevie. It's just they're quick to point it out if they think we are self praising our crowds yet they do it all the time.
  2. Great post by a Man Utd fan here, agree with every word, and I'll also say that our relative success in the mid 90's and early 00's was entirely funded by our business, our fanbase and our hard work. Man City are the scum of football, in so many ways. What a load of moaning, sanctimonious, steaming pile of shite from that Man U kid! Every successful club in its past has had its backers, and if a Man U fan thinks Man U haven't bought or tried to buy titles he's in fucking cloud cuckoo land. They spent 26 years trying to do it but never managed it. Ah! but it was their own generated money! Was it? At a time when there was no money in the game Man U didn't do too badly for backers, Liverpool had the pools dynasty on their board and a few managers who built steady, year in, year out. I tell you what, you think Man U would've respected us had we won the title? No, we would,ve bought the title too. Sugar Daddy Hall would've bought it for us, (according to them). If Man U are so fucking massive and generate their own wealth which is true NOW, then its been made when great wealth has went to clubs in the right place, at the right time. You could just as easy say to a Man U fan, that they had built a decent side in the late fifties but owe their universal appeal to a tragic plane crash when football supporters weren't so partisan. Do I like Man City's leap through Arab money? No, course not, same as Chelsea. But to hear moaning from these cunts is music to my ears. And he's talking out of his arse about Leeds. Leeds are not as big as Man City.
  3. Deano! Deano! Daylight robbery and he wants to come hoo-oome!
  4. He goes to the hairdressers! He makes the effort! He spends his money! And you don't even notice! Typical man!
  5. You've had a new haircut haven't you?
  6. Err, you like the word, 'hehehe' and use it a lot Deaders?
  7. Think it's very funny they were beaten 6-1 at home. Cannot stand either of them, to be honest. pre or post arab money. Man U edge it in 'the can't stand' stakes, though.
  8. So what? SO WHAT??!!! Did you not read the OP? Thay sang all match and there was only the odd 'Boooo' by the Bolton fans. Show some respect for the 'best fans in the country', Tom.

  10. Thought we were by and large very average but when it mattered Krul made the best save of the season and Cabaye strongly passed the ball into the corner with a classy finish. A few off their game today and this game turned out to be as close as I expected. Play like that against the likes of the really good sides and we'll get murdered. The thing is, I think we'll raise our game against the better sides. Anyway, points, points, points. That's all I'm bothered about tonight.
  11. This is the thing. They seem to make it up as they go along. Fuck anyone who gets affected.
  12. Put me down in the 'Evicted' category.
  13. Cap in hand time? How is this possible? Everything is going hunky dory? (No seriously, I'm over the moon we so far haven't missed Nolan, we might not miss Barton and could even get away with Enrique), Where's the crowds? Something must have pissed them off other than being turfed out their seats? They've alienated such a lot of supporters and this is baring in mind they've twisted some arms with the ten year thing. Peoplwe are not convinced. Shit PR from the club, or more likely people having a limit to their patience.
  14. I'd have probably had a season ticket had I not been chucked out of this section. Now I can get a ticket there on an ad hoc basis? (because ticket sales are shit). You couldn't make these daft cunts up! (If this is right).
  15. This must be wrong. I can't sit/stand there this season and get evicted, but I can for games against the likes of Wigan????
  16. So you don't have to be under 21 to get in?????!!!!!
  17. Turnstiles 87-88? Was that not the L7 corner? Could have sworn it was? Do you need to be a member for this or have they forgotten about this and ripped the daft bastards they scared into becoming a member off?
  18. Instant 'can't take serious' quote. On paper, a good quote. I just have an inkling our owner wants his cake and the ability to eat it. You can't keep selling your better players and replacing them with even better at a profit. If/when we start to finish 7th there's no place for MA to hide. Luckiest Ashley's got in his time here is the response to relegation, (caused largely by his own hand). It was a potentially club breaking thing. He got lucky. Good post.
  19. That said while Leeds home support has always been shit, their away support isn't bad, was never that good in the Prem but strangely it's improved while they've been in the lower leagues, probably like a Man City siege mentality thing, and it's normally a good atmosphere at both grounds when we play them, as opposed to playing your Wolves' and your Fulhams'. A good point always ignored by these Knackers on the likes of Talksport/shit journalists etc who sometimes dig the odd poor attendance out by us and have a pop. Man City averaged 28K, (not the often stated 30K plus) in their Div 3 promotion year in 1999. We had averaged 29K in our div 2 promotion season in 1984. There is a hell of a difference between those figures as 29K in 1984 was a far more impressive figure for a club outside the top flight. It was in fact only slightly bettered by a Liverpool side who won everything bar the FA cup, including the European Cup, and Man Utd. Football in 1999 was far more popular. That's not a dig at Man City more the usual suspects who can't stand NUFC.

    I wonder if in his last moments he thought, 'Fuck me! What changed?' Enemy number one in the Eighties, Rehabilitation/other fish to fry by the US/Allies in the nineties/naughties. Iran will be next.
  21. Wishful thinking? As much as I dislike them, at least it's a game that gets your back up and provides a bit of atmosphere. Wigan, Fulham etc are very tame by comparison.
  22. Team negative. Think we'll beat them like. 2-0, 3-1. Something like that. Team wrong tbh I was sure we'd Muller Spurs. I actually fancied a draw. I rarely get it right though so we'll probably not win this now. Blame me if we don't. Had a free £25 bet on this game and I chose a draw. That's my MOT paid for! Does your lass know you call her that? Which one? Needed two new tyres and my car failed its MOT so there's approx £180 gone. The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away!

  24. Then again, if we can beat both Fulham and Blackburn at home, games we always seem to struggle to get three points from, then we've got to have a chance against another bogey side.
