I tend to like it when there's one woman on those kinds of shows, they can get a bit... well... blokey and clever-clever otherwise.

Spot on I reckon. If we're still having this exact same discussion about Ameobi proving himself 12 months from now, then it quite simply means he hasn't, and we should draw a line under his future at the club. That said, I reckon he's definitely got the tools at his disposal to make a decent impression this year if he wants to (and injuries permit). Fingers crossed for the lad.

Agreed, it's more the hype and general saturation around the games that's the problem. If you could just tune in five minutes before kick-off for a quick look at the teamsheet then a match commentary by someone vaguely knowledgeable, that'd be grand. (Maybe ten minutes for the cup final. )

You wouldn't know that you had stepped on one. They're teeny! Ahhh, them. Under a cup and out the window like anything else that's slow enough to be caught. Although at this time of year it tends to be better just to let them run amok...

Wouldn't know one if I stepped on one. Google Images ahoy!

............. ..... ..right, off to the gym. See yous all in a couple of hours.

Anyone want to bet this proper genius absolutely hates southerners when he's not using their monuments to make a flawed point?

There seems to be a trend emerging. So I'll promptly spoil it with The Inspectors - The Metro Song

Sima was talking about Holden, Stevie thought he was talking about you. Or is just generally obsessed with your lovely hair. You couldn't make this thread up, really.

Is it just me who read that as an eight-line, two-stanza poem? Scansion's a bit off towards the end though.

This: Would of if I could, can't figure out how though! ...I assume. A stunning indictment of Gosforth's educational standards, evidently.

Done. And don't worry about the running absolutely killing you right now, I was dead the first time I tried running any kind of distance but now I can do the best part of 10k without collapsing (too badly), and anyone who knows me IRL will know that that's an entirely improbable set of events. Besides, you've got some fantastic motivation to keep going.

Aye, looking forward to this like. Loaftastic.

Aye

Yeah, I think it's the first time this has ever happened! You very lucky indeed! jesus you gota love sarcasm Yeah right.

Too busy out flashing grannies.

liar !!! I really don't! Sounds like a good night out though.

Oi! I've serviced you quite enough already.

Fair enough mate, it must get frustrating having to answer the same question over and over again. Like I say, though, I'm sure we'd all (well, most of us) like to help out more actively with stuff, it's just there's only a select few who are capable of actually doing something about it. As far as I know anyway. Or maybe it's only me whose HTML expertise just about stretches to making a page that says "Hello my name is Martin" on a nice coloured background, and I urgently need to expand my skill set. I'm babbling. That never helps. Mind, it might make things more entertaining around here. General Random Conversation anyone?

(...I don't even know what that means.)

If you're offering!

I was going to say like, how exactly is "it'd be nice if the arcade could be brought back" a lazy suggestion when the person suggesting it hasn't the slightest clue about programming? If we're only allowed to suggest things that we can actively participate in implementing, then I hereby offer my services as a German-English translator*, since I'm sure that'll be in hot demand on here. *Offer limited to users with more than 50 posts who chirp up at least once a day, naturally.

Too many people fucking moaning and doing fuck all about it tbh. People are happy to leave the starting of threads to you and Ritchie. If that's the way they want it, they should stop complaining that the forum is quiet. In my opinion, the reason why this board is quiet is because people are afraid to argue; every bit of abuse is frowned upon. Well said, I don't disagree one bit, shame you didn't say it earlier rather than that facetious snipe at Radgina. Just trying to get a bit of an argument going, surely? It's for the good of the forum!
