This forums fine when it doesn't crash and when people don't post about Inter Milan 'legends'. "I would like to dedicate this good moment to Monroe Transfer for all his support of me in toontastic, it makes me happy knowing I have his love, Forza MT!"

Chill, man, you know you're still my favourite placca Geordie. My old man is a Geordie but rarely went to games in his youth and as soon as he left school joined the army and travelled the World, it took some persuading for him to take me to the games when I was a kid due to his perceived ideas of trouble at the games. I'm kinda sorry I picked you out but you were the first person who came to mind that anyone off here would know, I can think of many a fan, myself included, whose money and attendance were fine pre-promotion but who get shoved aside for people who got to enjoy Tini's hat-trick whilst I watched it on the telly who might also have been busy working on saturdays when we were shit. I shared a season ticket with one of these fans the year we just missed out on the title because even then he still couldn't be arsed to go to every game, there was fucking loads man, just as there are fucking loads I see in the club on a match day who are ex-matchday goers, it's just in their time we were shit. You mention Bobby Robson, 'Tini' entertainers etc, why not David Kelly, Davey Mac etc? The most iconic goal I've ever witnessed was Kelly's against Portsmouth and that to me is a memory I'll take to the grave where the support present was 1000 times what it is now, knew what it meant, experienced the shit, knew the potential outcome if he hadn't scored, weren't shopping at the metrocentre that day. When were we relegated in 1989 Norwich and Millwall were right at the top of the table for long periods of the season, think that'll happen again? Think a team will get promoted and finish 3rd in their first season like us? No? Why? Because Sky have made a product and helped promote super brands which attracted outside investment which is great for the chosen few but has killed the game for everyone else, so aye, fuck sky and fuck their monday night games and their ex-sky4 pundits and their constant exposure they give to the likes of 'United' to help that club attract even more supporters for even more outside companies to sell things to through advertising via MUFC.

Talking of 'touchy' and internet, just decided to register on N-O and give it a shot but when it came to verify me there was three questions, one was what is NUFC's most famous shirt number.......ok so far.......the next two were questions about how many posts you need to make before you can start a topic and how long you'd be banned for for putting up goals from a game! :lol: Fuck that, if joining a forum about Newcastle Utd means reading up about banning rules on their site then err, it's not for me. Who's running that show, the sixth form prefects club? Fucking hell.

http://www.theevertonforum.co.uk/everton-forum/8573-everton-v-newcastle.html "Hope we batter these big headed twats!" "Hope we batter these tarts....." Fucking hell, what happened to these cunts down the years with us? There really is such touchy arseholes on the internet, full of shit, piss, hot air and full of themselves. Almost like Villa fans with no previous axe to grind getting all het up. Most fans you bump into from other clubs aren't usually any bother. That's in real life. In a bar. Near the ground etc. Then you've the internet Billy Bullshitters.

The game was taken away from a sizable proportion of fans who never really went back and were replaced with a CT type of fan, (no offence CT), the experience of going to a game seemed more raw and far less sterile than today. Considering that fans are constantly told gate money means fuck all then the amounts that get charged by clubs for a ticket up and down the country is scandalous. The money the likes of Robbie Savage has made from the game is obscene, agents and players take money out of football whilst clubs go to the wall. There's barely an Englishman in most teams, you have to pay to watch most football on tv, the chosen few clubs that the media have picked are all that matters, kids won't have a fucking clue and will grow up with Skys view of the football world. And then there's Mike Ashley. Preferred jumpers for goalposts. Clubs weakening their teams for the only competitions they can win as well. Not being able to go to an away game without being a season ticket holder or a member, £1 added to an already overpriced ticket. Having to sacrifice your clubs traditional home shirt for armchair fans can see 'who it is' and also so clubs can screw more money from fans who don't want a blank patch on their shirts.

You have to make Everton favourites being at home under the lights, they're doing alright and I think Martinez was a good pick for them. A lot will depend on which Newcastle Utd team turns up as well, also depends how they react if something doesn't go our way as I still think we can be quick to drop our heads as a side.

Is there any way of deleting Bruno Brookes from my cassettes as when I pressed 'play/record' at the start of an intro to a song the cunt would start blethering on and ruin the song?

The only twitch I get is south of my belt whenever I see a girls aloud video.

Got an interview at one. I've already revised; Q: What are your strengths? A: I can lead a team, for example I've started various songs off for younger, more reluctant fans to join in. I also know how many fans went to not only our games but those of other gobshite clubs in years gone by. I know the words to 'Big River'. Q: What are your weaknesses? A: A pretty face, long legs and a cleavage. Wish me luck/take the piss!

Read this in the minutes from the fans forum meeting the other day; "The board explained that we want to give fans who come here the best value for money. Until this season there was no rule in the Premier League on sale or return of away tickets. We have always offered tickets on a sale or return basis since I have been at the club because we think it's right; it encourages fans to travel and doesn’t leave clubs with a financial penalty if they don’t sell out their allocation. We campaigned heavily and the Premier League has now instructed that clubs must offer sale or return up to a full allocation which is great. We also campaigned heavily on ticket pricing with Premier League and we have always tried to make prices affordable. However, our fans don’t get that when they travel - we already give a discount to other clubs’ fans but that isn’t always reciprocated." Does this mean that from now the club will ask for the maximum tickets on offer for away games as Mike Ashley is no longer worried about losing any money on unsold tickets? For some reason this wasn't widely reported and I can't believe anyone present didn't ask if they would now start to take full allocations. I've e-mailed both the club and the nust to get clarification on this. (In nust's case I've asked them to bring the question up next time). If I hear anything I'll put it on here. Can't believe I never commented on this, like. :lol: I knew a few radgies from my way who were obsesed with Brookside and Liverpool and even drove down one night after clubbing in the Toon full of drugs and/or alcohol to Merseyside to find Brookside Close and to sing songs to Billy Corkhill. I wonder if the person you saw was one of them?

Incorporate the highlighted into a new series of Prisoner cell block H = happy Stevie. Problem solved. *No need for anymore ugly lasses in it, they were pretty well represented in that show from memory.

Should've saved yourself some money and just had a pint by the window of a boozer in your city for the same effect.

yep. Wife still uses the spreadable low fat butter though. Her loss.

That's unreal. Glad you got it back plus some.

I feel like that sometimes too.

You don't need telephone wire in your sky box. Tell them to fuck off if they say you do.
-
Tell them you've got a line rigged up then when they get there say it's getting sorted out at a later date.

It doesn't actually need to be connected to a telephone line although they tell you it does.
