String 'em up, Fawlty! Traitors harming the process!

Sure there'll be over egging in the transition, after all, Rome wasn't built without cracking the shell when they made a Caesar omelette, but when the willy waving is finished then common sense will prevail and we'll see no difference that I'll particularly notice. #teampositive

I thought the thread was going to be a critique of posters on here Stevie style.

I'd forgot about the pen patter.

'Same old Tories, sorting labour's mess'.

The Turk thinks the toon is full of (north) eastern promise.

I was canny stressed tbf.

scarily accurate.

I assumed it wasn't Farrah, tbf. Not sure why about the basement bit, either?

Ouch. I'm on the sick ATM, just paracetamol and ibuprofen for sciatica, I only went to the the doctors about that and something else and now I'm on the sick for stress. 'Up-a-height' were his words?

I'd like to help you if I can but I've no fucking idea what you're talking about?

You should've just blamed the 'Mag at work' for duff information.

I watched the game via RTE. Arghhh!!! Would've loved to have seen his dial.

Shearer basically lead the interview. TG is all about himself and the other kid is Jamie Redknapp lite. I enjoyed it because it was Shearer doing the vast majority of the talking, there was a few things I'd have asked Alan on the back his answers but these two were too young or not informed enough to grasp what to ask and when.

fraid so.

Coral pay Shearer as an 'ambassador'. By coincidence and probably as another way of playing up to the 'lad' culture and getting young'uns to bet with them, they've also agreed to sponsor True Geordie so that's how he's ended up with Shearer I'd hazard a guess?

That was canny although I did wonder a bit of the general lack of knowledge/perspective from TG and his southern sidekick, also Shearer himself getting the odd thing wrong. Had to laugh at TG comparing himself with Shearer albeit slightly tongue in cheek, (should've been 100% tongue in cheek) about being famous in Newcastle.

It's 'Mam'.

Newcastle United have been typical Newcastle United since I started going.

I haven't seen it but..... at your post, anyway.

You still hitting the tramadol, tooj?

I think the Christmas day/boxing day games from 60s and before that tended to be derbies or as close to derbies they could get. (Although saying that, I remember talking to an old West Brom fan who said NUFC were the biggest draw at the hawthorns and the travelling Geordies were great but liked a bit too much to drink and the game he was talking about was a boxing day game IIRC. He was a canny age so I asked him what era he was going on about and he said late 30s!)

There's a Chinese consortium after SAFC headed up by Sum Ting Wong.

Knowing our luck we'll get an Arab/Chinese version of Ashley and Del boy Trotter.
