adios

Now you're even having a pop at Roeder for signing Martins? He really was on a hiding to nothing basically wasn't he? This Special Olympian deserves his own forum tbh.

You realise that lot doesn't make your original statement any less bollocks, HF?

Sorry, but that's just bollocks. I've had a look at a lot of older threads yesterday and there were many who wanted him full time last time (ahead of Roeder) - myself included. +1 HF- Back to the film books for you, I'm afraid.

FYP

I'm not his biggest fan (shocker), but I agree that there's as yet no evidence either way on how he's going to work out as a coach, it's more the idea that a man must first understand the complex mysteries of Geordie to do a job at Newcastle. I believe it's the basis of Lara Croft's next adventure. I'm also not convinved that Shepherd sees the world the way this shite is portrayed by Oliver either btw.

I'm trying to figure out just how stupid you have to be to think this is the fundamental skill required to succeed. I think I need a lobotomy...

May 22nd, High Noon.

You sick, sick man. I had no idea things were this bad, Laz. Just watched Hot Fuzz - good laugh, certainly not a classic.

I still have that sealed issued. Came in a foil pack. Must be worth millions on eBay by now. Im rich rich I tells ya!! Why would you buy it, then never open it? He's just sealed it shut again tbh.

Away somewhere nice for the weekend?

What's the banana for, potassium? I've been finding Magnesium helps with the more psychological(?) aspects of a hangover.

Then fuck off, Glenn.

Here's ewerk now, maybe he can shed some light on what he thinks about it. Though the lad's clearly off his head, so I don't know how much good he'll be.

Radical supporters of anything should just fuck off and die for their cause tbh. They have no place in a reasonable conversation. I certainly don't know why you'd let them bother you.* I mentioned students because they often have well meaning but undeveloped or inexperienced points of view, so same difference I suppose. I didn't think a slightly older peer group would see things so back and white, which I thought is what you had said. I don't think abortion is a class issue in Ireland. I would just say generally that there would be a very small minority of under class who would not have access to the same plane/boat to the clinic as anyone else in modern day Ireland and leave it at that. I agree there are still religious people in Ireland, it just doesn't seem any different than anywhere else I've lived, actually France strikes me as being moreso and England about the same. The general populace across all generations are not being guided in their decision making process by religion, even if they do go to mass on Sunday. It's hard to gauge, though, given that it's mostly anecdotal. *Didn't you have some friends with some rather bizarre opinions on another issue we were talking about a while back? Pretty hazy memory so quite possibly bollocks.

On the class bit, you've now pushed it to the extremes of a young girl in care and the richest of the rich. Kind of rendering it a moot point? I'm not sure she's in care btw, they used similar language to talk about the last case I remember and I've only skipped over this article, but weren't the family mentioned? And I know what you're saying about it only being our personal experiences, same here obviously, but it seems you are saying that we agree about it being a horrible decision, people I know agree, and the women you know agree. So who is it disagreeing? Would have to be a fairly thoughtless bloke to argue it, surely.

I was answering your sarasm with some of the same, you bell end. Obviously the Irish constitution is up to it's bloodied arse in church power, but what remains in the constitution no longer reflects the views of the general public (in my opinion). If you think about it, your examples are proof of that. I'd love to know where these deeply religious souls are hiding out btw, I have a fair snapshot of a wide range of classes and areas of Ireland, and I don't see it.

I think you might be on to something there; maybe people are just finding more and more RIDICULOUS things to moan about?

Where's that coming from, like? Anyone I've ever discussed it with, who's been pro-choice has felt it was a hugely difficult issue. Most of them not prone to too much deep thinking on other issues. Also your opening line is completely out-dated, much like the offending legislation in this instance. Bollocks about this being a class issue, too. Positively topsy-turvy land for you today tbh. Oh, and - DOWN WITH THIS SORT OF THING! I meant unquestioning from those who see themselves as "liberal" in the wider sense of the word - I get the impression sometimes its "treason" to feel uneasy about the act itself. Is that feeling warranted? Just curious. It sounds like a very "studenty" viewpoint to me, and I think you're older, so most of your peers wouldn't be students? If the lass was rich (for want of a better word) then it wouldn't have come to court - thats what I meant - she would already have been here and had it done. Exactly the way the "rich" in this country always found a safe way pre-legalisation. I don't follow, is it simply because of the lack of private healthcare? She could have just kept her mouth shut when she found out about it and made her decision and gone over, or maybe she expected them to pay for it too? The way the health service have dealt with things is obviously another matter. On my opening line do you deny that Ireland's constitution and legal system is a teeny bit Catholic influenced? No...not at all. I haven't talked to anyone back home about this, so I've no idea of the general feeling, but I wonder if this might finally see a much needed change to the constitution. The last time there was a big case like this (that I can remember) it was too early, but to think that this is about religious intolerance today, is wide of the mark IMO.

Just age, I think. Must have taken me a good 10 seconds staring at that pic to figure out who I was looking at.

I actually feel sick. That's our very own Geordie Boyo (Billy) 2nd right. I'm surprised he hasn't knocked seven shades of shite out of the bloke on his right for throwing his height around so aggressively!

I actually feel sick.

This poll may be a new low in internet futility, I'd honestly rather give 50 cent a go than leave Roeder in charge, but Allardyce is way ahead of both tbf.

If Allardyce is coming in, I'd rather no one was let go until he sees what he can do with them; not even, or maybe especially Luque.
