The ghost of Gordon McKeag is directing his football league successors to block it, a cabal of current Tyneside businessman are enforcing Gordon's wishes.

Errr......there might be a reason he's struggled to score against Sunderland? Just can't put my finger on it?

He's a poor man's Steed Malbranque apparently. (Not that they're bothered or anything).

@PaddockLad if he rings you up can you answer him by asking him what the fuck he wants as you're too busy to talk and you'll maybe catch him later. If you get time.

The Entirely Reasonable Potential Transfers Thread
Howmanheyman replied to Ayatollah Hermione's topic in Newcastle Forum
They love resigning players or extending contracts of players they shouldn't as it saves the hassle of actually going out and spending time and money getting new players. The mediocrity is everywhere at NUFC. It stinks. -
I'm not saying it's an accurate representation of redundancies etc and I didn't sign up to twitter till a couple of years ago but...... You do see the odd post asking if anyone knows of any work because they've been made redundant and when they give their experience it doesn't involve producing/manufacturing etc. I'm just wondering if the shit hits the fan, companies are going to start looking at who they actually need to bring in the pennies and sometimes it can come down to a 'Does he/she need to be covered if they're off?' If the answer is no then I'd think that covers a few of the jobs people are looking for who have been finished recently. As an example, was driving to work this week and for a change didn't listen to music. R5 were speaking to a poor lass who's been made redundant three times since covid, took three different types of jobs on but they were all, for want of a better word, office type jobs and a certain skill set, (which I haven't got myself), but as she was talking about what she has done and what she wants it was noticeable that certain types of jobs are obviously under more threat at the minute whereas in years gone by manufacturing was decimated, (and could still get worse, cough, Brexit, cough) but some of the jobs I'm seeing under threat now are a little different. (Just an observation, not saying everyone is only like me, PL and big Dave who works in a garage somewhere).

I'm not making out it's a tiny number of the metropolitan elite . I'm well aware loads of people work in the office, I'm also aware loads don't which doesn't come across as much in the radio/television media. (Was going to say MSM but I'll give Gloomy a break).

53% aren't.

'Now we're all getting used to working from home' Pre-covid: 'how do you do.....[whatever].....in the office?' There's loads of these types of examples on the radio/television as well as the above summer house stuff. The BBC basically thinks that their news audience all comes from a certain part of the population, a certain part of the population that amazingly reflects themselves and the people they mix with. Vast majority of people I know or work with don't work from home or in an office but you wouldn't know it from the BBC's slant on the British workforce. It's not a big deal in the scheme of things but I do sometimes think, 'Who are you talking to here?' because most times it isn't me they're referring to nor most of the people I know. They have no real knowledge of the rest of the workforce, no real idea and their ignorance comes across quite regularly in this subject. Now put this in context when any dispute between a company and their employees happens and it sticks out a mile even in the way where sometimes they don't even know the correct questions to ask or how to approach the subject. Anyway, going slightly off topic but I'm basically calling them middle class, office based wet farts who haven't a fucking clue.
