  1. You sound like Gabby Logan. Man up bitch.
  2. I had battenberg cake for the first time in donkeys last night. Saw it in Asda and had a craving. lush.
  3. How do you like that? A naked chick riding the cap off a bottle of dog. http://www.endclothing.co.uk/passarella-de...astle-tee.html/
  4. Ordered the track top. Can anyone link to the t-shirt? Seems prodirect are all out.
  5. Fell off a Segway and broke 3 ribs.
  6. Inter Milan? Deportivo La Coruna? Real madrid? .....Chelsea?
  7. I know nowt about how it works, so these are genuine questions, for someone who knows more to answer. In his last 2 years at the club, Shepherd spent £65M. Most of it to foreign clubs. Do the above FA rules or similar apply? If it was all spread over (say) 5 years, we might be about half way through on avarage so it could be as much as £30M still to pay (total finger in the air stuff). If there are rules like the above that cover UEFA, it's not a consideration, but if there aren't, writing off that debt would be a huge incentive for administration. Then there's player contracts. Can they be terminated under administration? Barton 2012 Duff 2011 Smith 2012 Geremi 2010 Those four will have cost the best part of £15m in wages by the time their contracts run down. No club would match those wages or pay a significant fee, not to mention Butt, Ameobi or Xisco. Question is why doesn't MA just pay those debts? His Paper worth is roughly £800m ish even in the current market. I assume we're not paying any interest on those debts, therefore it wouldn't make sense to may them now, unless we got a discount for it. We wouldn't have paid interest if they'd staggered payments for Nolan or Taylor either, but they're boastful of having paid the full fee up front.

  10. “We won’t clear the debt for those players as it will take us until 2011” Who knows how much debt that is? Would/could it be worth his while do do something like this to have it written off?
  11. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/nufc/newcas...72703-23264421/ Keegan walks because they won't budge on him having the final say.....which they hand to Kinnear on a plate? Get to fuck!
  12. Like most of the stuff that comes out of the club.
  13. Paying for players in full up front makes more sense if Ashley's got Administration in the back of his head. Ensures he's top of the list for money back rather than Wigan or Bolton.
  14. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/article-1...ore-bosses.html Ashley wants to buy JJB's assets on the cheap, so he wants to see any deal that could save them fail. Not really analagous to Newcastle where any drop in asset value would surely only hurt him as the sole stakeholder, but really makes a lay person like me wonder about the angles he could be working. Trying to devalue a company he owns 22% of would also have seemed strange, before learning the end game being played.

  17. A 1983 film by Andrei Tarkovsky that won best Director at the Cannes film festival.
  18. Your ever expanding debt was unsustainable and administration on the cards. I think the problems hyave come from Ashley trying to make the club viable over night where as a slower plan may have been better suited. Ashley has us in more of a state though, right?
  19. Coming fixtures... Blackburn v Tottenham, 12:45 Bolton v Middlesbrough, 15:00 Hull v Portsmouth, 15:00 Newcastle v Chelsea, 15:00 West Brom v Stoke, 15:00 West Ham v Sunderland, 15:00 Couple of six pointers there like. Wouldn't bet against us dropping to 19th.
  20. Ask John Batchelor.... http://www.chad.co.uk/stags/I-have-assetst...mits.3922445.jp
  21. Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain Magnolia (the film was written around the album) Fargo Electroma There Will Be Blood
  22. Went to see it last night. Funny as fuck. The kid is a bit shite like, but it's easily up there with Clint's best work - Unforgiven and A Perfect World.
