Our new 3rd kit here. (Sorry, can't 'lift' it from the clubs site.) Edit: And then I see it four threads down!

Apologies if you've already seen this

Preferred 'It's a goal!' on BBC Newcastle, anyway. -
Alright, even I don't think Llambias would be laughing, but he sounded a bit embarrassed to have to comment on a situation where he is universally loathed and the bloke he's praising is universally loved.
-
Did anyone feel a bit cold when Llambias was 'interviewed' on SSN? I actually shouted at the telly for him to just 'fuck off'. Totally inappropriate somehow, seeing him comment on a NUFC/England legend.

Kenny sits on ball Just as funny is hearing Charles 'fucking' Harrison's commentary, remember away games you never went to and having to listen to this clueless oaf on Metro radio? "The crowd have 'mixed feelings' on this" Err, not really like, Charles, I thought it was fucking brilliant myself!

Well put.

Is it going to be desperation loan strikers from now on, Tommy Gaynor from Forest, Dave Mitchell, the bearded Aussie from, fuck knows, (Swindon). Anyway, what a legacy totally wasted by some clueless fucking cretins, Shep started the ball rolling, Ashley came along like the clueless cockney we've all met in a bar who had great difficulty establishing 'Arse' from 'Elbow' and now we're back to square one. FECK!

So we've sold Martins, we can't do a thing in case it 'isn't fair to the new owners' but we've now sold Martins. Looking at the bigger picture, it surely screams out ASHLEY STAYING!!! Overall, if it really is £9M then we've done ok, then again, I thought that we'd maybe done the sensible thing when we sold 30 year old Sir Les for £6M. DOH!!!

Met him at my old work once, about ten years ago, absolute class he was, it wasn't long after he'd took charge of us and you couldn't help but realise why the players were suddenly playing so much better, no wonder, who couldn't have been enthused by his arrival at the club? He came to my work to officially open a new bottling plant of a company with strong links to NUFC and a major part of our city (S&N). He was meant to smash a huge bottle of Broon off a wall, have a couple of photo's then do a shoot, certainly that was what one of the companies big-wigs was trying to get him to do, but Bob was having none of it, he met us, had a bit of craic, asked us for a tour, and waited around for the next shift to come in so he could meet them, too! Another time I was killing time with my wife and eldest daughter at SJP's cafe whilst we waiting for a hospital appointment and Bobby came in about ten-ish telling his trailing secretary what he wanted done asking someone to get in touch with West Brom about some reunion they must have been having and he was gone in a blur. The wife said he never stops does he? I then told her that he must have got back home in the early hours of that morning as we had played FC Basel in Switzerland the previous night and he was in work just a few hours later when we saw him! RIP Bobby

Class, mate.

Just stumbled across these photos. Excellent. I was at all but the Charlton and Southampton one, I'm sure Gary Kelly saved two pens versus Chelsea in the 3-1 win.

Water Margin? Excellent.

Dallas was actually canny good. Pure cheese but hilarious with it. Larry Hagman man I quite admired Victoria Principal, JR was a proper Texan twat, Cliff Barnes did nothing apart from slag JR off and order Chinese take-aways with his lass. you mean don't you? Well, I'll stick with 'admired' for now.

Don't forget the poisoned Dwarf! She was alright, actually, never seen the attraction of Sue-Ellen the piss-head.

You couldn't help but sing along to dogtanian, mind.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Dynasty.

Best theme tune for a kids programme ever. Gentlemen, I give you... Close, very close but space age Greek mythology just pips the splits and their Arabian Knights.

Off the top of my head; Auf Wiedersehen Pet 1&2 Boys from the black stuff Das boot (the series, not the film) Life on Mars Morse The Fast Show (I've probably missed ones I liked more, but there you go, I have to say me and the missus like 'Lie to me' at the minute with Tim Roth.) The singing detective was very good too.

Best theme tune for a kids programme ever. That's an audacious claim. Gummi bears? Banana Man? Fraggle Rock? Danger Mouse? Not even close. (haven't a clue what the gummi bears goes like, tbf).

It mightn't be funny but this was the real deal when I was young'un. Or;

Totally agree. I reckon from the age of 5 to 14, 95% of my living thoughts were about football. Even worse though are blokes who just don't like football, I haven't got one male mate who is a football hater, I don't think I could have neither. How can you have a mate who doesn't like football? Makes you wonder whether football will enter a supporters decline in the next ten years or so as kids nowadays dont play it like we used to. Days for us used to be a lickabout in the playground, twice a day. Run home, get changed and straight onto the field for two hours. Finishing off after tea with an hour or so of head tennis in the street. School holidays just meant two 4 hour long games followed by tea and twice as much head tennis. Nowadays you dont see kids knocking a ball around in the street. In the summer holidays this no word of a lie, we used to play football, at least 8 hours a day, 7 days a week, I bet people think am kiddin. 3 pots in, heads and volleys, world cup singles, beat the keeper, magic, magic days, some kids still have them but it's not the same, they all have play stations and are spoilt little cunts. I had a computer but it was secondary to playing football. You could guarantee on any given day we could get 10-30 kids for a game, within a 3 to 4 age radius of me. Today there are few kids playing and it's heart breaking. The likes of Steven Gerrard, Rio and Lampard are my generation in 10 years time, if you think the conveyor belt of young talent is shite now, I think due to the fact we've become a nation of fat lazy kids, we'll be lucky to produce world class stars. Kids looked better cos we were all fit as fuck, you're only talking 20 years ago here. Spoilt cunts the lot of em. All I ever wanted was me BMX, match and shoot once a week, and enough for 10 packets of stickers. Sad how lifes went down hill since then in the name of progress. My first proper memory of mass football games was the Espana '82 world cup, we'd play football in the 'rec' behind our street, I'd be either Zico, (not Mick Martin!) or Socrates because the Brazilian names sounded cool as fuck to a young kid, we'd play all day until either the glue sniffers came to hang about or our mams called us in for our tea or there was a game on the telly, after the world cup a certain KK joined us and every kid would shout 'KEEGAN!' as they had a shot. As an aside, I found an old photo of my school team collecting our medals for winning our league in 1984, there was a few toon shirts, some black & white, some silver, I had an admiral England shirt on, (the last England top I've ever had) and there wasn't one Man U/LFC whatever shirt to be seen. I find it a bit fucking sad when I see a Chelsea top or whatever on any kids around Newcastle, and the amount of blokes who wear them, what sad, sad bastards are these?
