  1. Colin Pascoe is Liverpool's assistant manager; how????
  2. http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01757/Josef-Fritzl-house_1757109c.jpg
  3. If Ba goes, this is Xisco's big opportunity
  4. and if it all goes to shit, Christmas Tree can walk away from Newcastle United, in the same way he accidentally stumbled upon them as a hobby in early middle age; with no understanding of the history & culture of the club or region, no comprehension of the nature of the emotional involvement involved in following a club & no realistation of how much the likes of him are despised by every NUFC worthy of the name. his kind are worse than those who become NUFC fans post 92 as a way of making money out of the supporters
  5. Malcolm Brown crossed with Ian Davies
  6. no point in mentioning anyone pre 2010 to CT; he didn't like football until then
  7. when i think about what else he does on the internet, i shudder
  8. exactly why we shouldn't persist with that Simpson to Williamson free kick, especially with our pygmy squad....
  9. The only people who hate CT more than we do are his family, his neighbours & his support workers
  10. When my partner was a student, she worked in The Forth & said he had the foulest temper in the world. Once the Jazz Cafe was burgled (takings, drink, tabs; usual) & the coppers had to go upstairs to his flat to see if there had been anything else stolen. Unsurprisingly, he lived in squalor & copper who had looked at place called in to The Forth afterwards for cuppa & a chat, ostensibly to ask if there were witnesses, & described Crombie's living quarters as "a gorilla's nest."
  11. In all seriousness, obviously hysteria is easy after such a result; the most important thing, as far as I’m concerned, is Pardew keeps his nerve & reflects on his substitutions. Without the changes we would probably have lost anyway, but going so gung-ho caused the late collapse. This must never happen again; otherwise I may start to wonder about his judgement. While at any ordinary club, such a result would be seen as reason to sign players to strengthen the team, we are far from an ordinary club; although, in the midst of that defensive carnage, we scored 2 truly excellent goals in the second period. In December 2000: Arsenal 5 Newcastle 0 - a far worse battering than today. In 76//77 we let in 7 at Man Utd & 5 at Arse, but finished 5th, so don't despair!! Fundamentally, all that matters now is we beat Everton. That will not happen unless Pardew keeps his job & his temper & the team step up. The manager knows what he has to do is pick the players up, put the obvious faults right & hope for some good luck; that happens, we're fine. If it doesn't & he panics or has the rug pulled from under him in any way, we're screwed.
  12. you could have said "the ability of my phone to spell." you chose not to & said, or should have, "my phone's ability to spell." the apostrophe you omitted was required as you were talking about your phone's (note how i've used it) ability to spell, which is a quality it possesses.
  13. this may be news to you, but apostrophes are used for possession as well as omission you have shot yourself in the foot here
  14. i've got a recording of Frank Zappa reading that
  15. Just played the Wells / Moffat album twice through on a jolly bike ride; this is the classic stand out track on it.
  16. no i didn't; november was hectic with gigs, so i had to pick & choose - shame, but unavoidable
  17. Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat was my most recent purchase; missed them in Oct 11, day we drew 2-2 with spurs shola's superb late equaliser left me so befuddled i went home after the game, forgetting the gig was on
  18. rarely capitalise in informal discourse; it's "un hommage" to ee cummings the lack of end stopped punctuation is the influence of Mallarme
