I've been on the dole since April, the few jobs in my sector have been shiftwork and 'meets minimum wage'. If the economy is improving, I haven't spotted it.

Keith Harris: Club may be sold this month, but not by our first game
Howmanheyman replied to Amir's topic in Newcastle Forum
We're basically knackered, I don't think anyone is prepared to pay FMA what he wants and also keep the club going with funds. They either haven't got the money or don't think we're worth the investment. I just wish either party, (FMA or potential bidders), would announce their intentions that the game is up. I'm just pissed off with the stalemate and being kept in the dark. -
Nah, it was Martin Thomas between the sticks for that one - league game early on in the season (87/88). Remember it well I wasn't sure if it was or Kelly or Thomas, sometimes you remember games crystal clear, others, like this are a bit faded. I know we got beat off Wimbledon, anyway. Aye 2-0 defeat. We had a pretty shit start to the season IIRC (lost to Forest at home, Wimbledon at home, destroyed by Liverpool at home) but we still finished the season in 8th. Yes I remember those, missed the Forest one, we only had the paddock terracing along the touchline as the old West stand was demolished and it looked a bit wierd, (and shit).

Bloody hell, you've got to feel for Gary Kelly. I'm sure John Fashanu chipped him one game (FA cup?) it hit the crossbar (thank fuck!) came out and hit him on the head as he was landing and flew back from whence it came and ended in the net, (fuck!).

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

Don't mind him, Steve Claridge on the other hand..... ............. Is into self love in a big way.

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.
