Happy Face

Rather than mimic the Champions league they should revert back to a straight knockout 2-leg cup competition. There are far too many games involved without enough return for entrants to remain competetive. Any UEFA cup qualifier should be pushing for champions league the next year, but if they're good enough to, they're punished with a hectic fixture list that leaves them unable to compete with the richest clubs in their home league. If I were a manager that qualified, I'd turn down entry into the competition as it stands to focus on qualifying for the champions league where the big bucks are. Either that or I'd put out the reserves in the UEFA cup which is basically the Carling cup of Europe. Another option would be to limit entry to the UEFA cup to teams outside of the top 5 european nations and/or include a champions league place for the winner. Giving the fucker a different name will be about as much use as "The Championship".

The only quote I can find from the time of the buyout is... "The board believes that SJHL and Mike Ashley will be excellent custodians of Newcastle United's heritage and will provide the best possible opportunity for the club to flourish in the future, to the benefit of the company and its fans." And in their first season we finished higher than we had in the previous. So there's not really been any let downs. In finding the quote I also found the first mention of Ashley selling up... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ted/6956540.stm Almost a year ago now. We should celebrate the bullshit anniversary

I thought historical results didn't mean anything. Boro have beaten Spurs more than they've been beaten off them. http://www.soccerbase.com/head2.sd?team2id...mp;team1id=2590 I for one don't think Boro are bigger than Spurs. Newcastle clearly are though. UEFA have officially decreed it after all.

£24 Million for a lad who was valued at £11M had a couple of canny games in Euro '08 and never showed up for the most important one. Ridikilis.

Bin Laden's not even bought the place yet and the toon is getting bombed.

Try and keep it personal. I took the piss out of him having more shoes than her because his trainer fetish makes 2J look normal. Nowt too offensive about how many women he's reamed all over the bed they're about to share, but a gentle ribbing. I used a couple of internet jokes too like, no harm in that. The old ones are the best.

I did. And I was great. ...except for holding my notes in front of my face so no-one could see or hear me. Then bring that thread up from the archives man! Who was it for btw? A lad I know through work...that's what made it difficult, I'd only known him a few years. You're the admin, merge them! I can't find it that's why I asked you to bump it. Has it not been deleted? Wasn't there a clear out of old threads, or was it on N-O? That was N-O. Can you vaguely remember the date of the wedding? England v Portugal in the World Cup was the wedding day. So the thread must've been started a week or two before mid to late June 2006.

He's done two Best Man speeches already (anyone that's met him asks him to do it basically). The first one was brilliant but I've not been able to source a video. I've got video of the second one and need to hoy it on Youtube, but it's not quite up to the standards of the first one.

Ladies and gentlemen, if I could just say a few words.....I'd be a better public speaker.

Get a projector or a big screen set up and just take the piss out old photos.

An Irish Hobbit?

I see Murray Walker is doing formula one 606 these days. I wonder if they'll coax him back to do full commentary when it's on the BBC again. They've taken Brundle but not Allen, right? Or did I dream that (wishful thinking)?

I like it too. Certainly holding my interest more than Guero did. Harsh review in the Guardian though.... http://music.guardian.co.uk/reviews/story/0,,2289026,00.html I've just realised, I didn't even bother getting The Information, I must have felt so let down by Guero.

Is that a joke? Not at all. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A9on_(fi...irector.27s_cut I thought you meant sleeps with him!!! Yeah, thats what I thought as well. ooops. Just shared a bed. She was gagging for it though. Luc Besson is a rotter.

It's amazing to me that people expect completely different standards from those inside the house to those you get outside. Politeness says if you're going to talk about someone you do it behind their back. Tact dictates that if someone uses a cup to wash their balls, you stop using the cup rather than wail on them them for it. And common courtesy is that when a fruit says they have out of body experiences, you politely nod with a grin on your face rather than belittling them and mocking their faith. Why there's this fixation with "keeping it real" in there is beyond me.

What a total wank. There are nearly 900,000 people on Tyneside. The true local hardcore toon area where your never more than 10 miles from the toon is well over a million. To be fair, a large number of those are from South Tyneside Stevie, you can't have it both ways.

Response!

And they STILL haven't invited you to the table? We have established the decision was based on Uefa coefficient which we will be surpassing you with this season. What makes you say that?

And they STILL haven't invited you to the table?

Makes the people come together.
