Howmanheyman

Was in the Metrocentre today with Mrs Howmanheyman and walked past David Dunn or his twin brother. Either signing for us or the mackems or his lass fancied shopping somewhere different.

Kevin Nolan would get my vote ahead of Jose as I simply believe he's been more vital to our cause. Jose's arguably the better player but all round, Nolans goals have been priceless, he's also been our true captain in all but name whether he's had the armband or not. Also, it's kinda funny how an unfit, big scouser is probably our best finisher, (a bit like Micky Quinn, minus the tache and nightmare finish to the season). Also for those who point to the games where he struggled, you could turn around and point to the very few games he missed and Jose can be a bit careless on the ball too. So, for this season, Nolan the most important player, Jose classy, and hopefully classy for the foreseeable future.

Away to Bristol wearing it was absurd. How often has the 3rd been worn? I reckon we've only worn our home shirt on a couple of occasions, Watford away and Barnsley. Watford would have clashed with the yellow. Maybe Ashley was maximising its exposure so it would sell or maybe the club read all the negative responses to the shirt and decided to rub our noses in it for shouting nasty stuff to mikey by wearing it whenever they could. I reckon the 3rd kit was worn three times? Dundee Utd, Blackpool and Forest. Or maybe the players felt that they were winning games in it, so why change things. Maybe, but that doesn't explain why they needlessly wore it from day one.

Why did they almost always play with this kit when there was no need for change? i.e. the other teams kit never clashed with black and white? All those away wins would've looked better in our proper colours. P.S. Sorry, its still shit but not as horrendous as the distorted media coverage it received.

Not with long sleeves it won't have been.... Back in the good old days of 1-11 shirts so anyone who wore #4 that season could be the person who wore it. Possibly O'Brien or Kristensen or more likely Kevin Dillon... I thought of him after I posted. How could I forget the 'decent-chance-a-game' midfielder from Sunderland who managed to have a 100% miss rate in his 'decent-chance-a-game' midfield role.

That Pompey fan once said we had crap support. "Oh Pompey knacka, You are a fucking clown! Oh Pompey knacka, I'm glad you're going down! Oh Pompey knacka, I want gold* sovereigns too!" (Well, there is a load of companies buying gold at the minute).

That looks very authentic. ( I wonder if Puma might be responsible for some of the kits doing the rounds in an attempt to gauge what their customers would like, I don't know, call it 'market research' or something, now wouldn't that be a revolutionary thing?). If they are monitoring our responses then I kinda like that one too.

How the red number would look. Just saw this on ebay. Just the £400, like! Think it's a match worn shirt and if I had to put money on it, would say it would've been Roy Aitken's shirt?

This thread has reminds me of Big Brother, (the tv show).

Thesports editor would be one Bill Bradshaw who is a mackem, then it explains a lot doesnt it! Bill Bradshaw's not to blame, he's a really good bloke* I know him. * For a mackem You've got a Makem mate? fuck off He's not a mate, he's someone I used to work with when I was a kid. I sent him this email two days ago, he hasn't responded yet. Hi Bill I don't know if you remember me but I used to work in your offices when you were editor of The Journal, I was only 17 or so at the time, and you were always a really decent bloke towards me. I was on office junior there and used to assist your PA Sarah, you will remember me because I used to take the piss out of that homosexual Chris Hastings every day and he complained. I've noticed your career has taken off since then massively and well done, The Express is obviously one of the most widely respected and largest newspapers in the country. Now I know you're a Sunderland fan, but whenever I used to chat with you, or I've seen you since on the Sunday Supplement, whenever you've mentioned NUFC you have always been fair and balanced, and it could be because you were from an era when Newcastle and Sunderland supporters had a lot more respect for one another. Which is why I'm shaking my head at the disgraceful vitriolic nonsense from "The Voice of Football", (I know more about football than this cretin and I do) Mick Dennis. Mick Dennis is an idiot, and someone who clearly prostitutes himself as a wind up merchant, or a controversy seeker in order to gain interest in your sports pages. It's either that or The Express have decided to go down an anti-Newcastle United path. Either way he's got no self respect in my view, and no professional integrity. I would like you to read his article about Newcastle United's disloyal fans Bill, and tell me what you think. http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/167776...s-still-deluded 43,000 average gate and we are disloyal, despite this being the largest average any club has had outside a top flight division, anywhere on earth since 1974, despite Premiership ticket prices, despite being utterly dragged through the mud with no money to spend. If you have idiots like this writing nonsense like he has, your captive audience will go down. The Express isn't The Star or The Sport, I'm disappointed that such drivel about my club is allowed to be written in order to pacify a Newcastle United hating nation. Best Wishes Steve He'll tow the party line and defend a fellow journalist, have no doubt about it. I'll be amazed if he says, 'Alright, Stevie mate? Aye, I completely agree, he's a total bell-end and that article is the biggest load of shite I've seen since I had a tonne of manure delivered to my back garden'. Are you Chris Hastings ????

I would love to be a journalist me like especially a football journalist. Even if they asked me to write about Spurs or Liverpool I'd be unbiased, because that's how it should be regardless of any individual dislikes. Dennis and frumpy mackem Taylor obviously let their personal dislike of our club cloud their judgements, whilst others are out for controversy and a reaction, I'd put the prick Adrian Durham in the latter category. The best bet with the likes of Durham is simply not to listen, thats what will get to him, but the likes of Dennis need to be put right as he is virtually 'offering us on' with his past sniping at our support.

With Mick Dennis it's a mixture of getting a response and the fact that this oaf genuinely believes his club Norwich have a better support and it really rankles with him if, God forbid, anyone should praise a clubs fans when the club praised doesn't have someone with BBC cookery programme experience involved in the boardroom. What a plonker. Does he remember Norwich finishing third in the PL, (when football was popular!) and the club averaging 16,467? Kind of puts our 2nd division crowds in the shade, like, Mick. Getting on to the equally smug cabbagehead, Woolnough, I remember catching that God awful show he does on SKY the day after KK had left Citeh by mutual consent. Woolnoughs brief response to the news? "Brought nothing to football, will always be known as a quitter". That was it. C U N T.

I might try and e-mail PUMA instead! Obviously that was aimed at Heedtastic rather than you... Err, obvious to you, maybe!

Her latest headline, once again looking at any negative she can take from NUFC. I just wonder if she'll ever write about SAFC? Then again, like all mackems and Geordies, we all share one constant thing, an obsession with Newcastle United.

I might try and e-mail PUMA instead!

If the shirts can have red numbers again then might this mean we can get rid of the God awful huge patches on the back of our shirts?

Hawksbie and Jacobs. Them two are a good larf, aint they? I could listen to their patter all day long.

To be honest I got a lot of satisfaction out of last night as I was down in Nottingham for our defeat and they were completely nobbish all day, trying to herd us into some big shit room in Notts Countys ground and expecting us to stay there and be happy bunnies. Fuck that! anyway, some of their fans were arseholes and I had the pleasure of scaring one young halfwit shitless as he gave some Geordies who were in the distance a bit of stick with the usual 'aint won no silverware/Geordie cunts' type patter. Poor lad didn't realise that the two lads behind him were 'Geordie cunts' till I asked him to re-phrase himself. The words 'white' and 'sheet' come to mind. Stewards arguing the toss. Police ignoring notts pricks whilst trying to stare me out in a Village people type way. Singing '1-0 to the famous club' and virtually doing a lap of honour in front of nearly 10K more than the very next league match at the City Ground. Small time actions from a once successful club. By the way, when we finished 3rd in Div2 in '84 we had the 3rd highest average gate in the country, 29,811. Forest also finished 3rd but in the 1st division and were watched by an average 17,698, this wasn't too long from their European Cup heyday. Small time club. (And I didn't even mention them being scabs!)

Has anyone ever seen an article where she slates/criticizes Niall Quinn or SAFC in general? (Obviously a daft question when her dream man, Roy Keane was there.) Has she commented on Niall Quinn sending out club Representatives to hunt down pubs/clubs in Wearside who have foreign tv stations showing premier matches? Has she commented on Quinn saying he won't tell Ellis Short to spend any more money if the crowds don't start to get any better? She is the North-East representative of her paper is she not? Or maybe she realises her editor won't take kindly to her wasting his time by giving him a SAFC story? Or perhaps she has an aptitude for anti-NUFC stories which she hasn't got for her own club? Shit article by the woman who came up with the ludicrous 'Islamaphobic' bollocks. It's almost funny, to be fair.

Apparently, Steven Spielberg rang the Yeading manager asking if he could borrow the players to use them as extras in his new Viking film he was shooting near, err, Hayes and Yeading beach, , anyway, a few days later the Yeading Manager phones up Spielberg to ask how they got on, Spielberg replied, "Well they were canny enough at the pillaging............... ........But they were fucking shite at Luton!" (Anyone seen my coat?)

Newcastle has to be the football rumour capital of Britain.

There was always a decent German apart from the horrible Nazi. There was never any any decent 'Japs', they were just cunts, basically.
