You haven't seen Eastern Promises have you? Get it watched. London is rife

I think he's maximised exposure for his brand regularly off the back of NUFC. Whether it's putting the club up for sale or taking it off the market or putting it up for sale again or taking it off the market again, putting a sign on the roof, putting a sign on the stand or changing the name of the stadium. All have been big news in the national press. Irrespective of how the league position might fluctuate, whatever Ashley does with Newcastle will have Sports Direct in the news, even if it's just a mention that he owns the company, the more intrinsically linked Sports Direct are to the move he makes, the more exposure his brand gets. Getting into Europe hasn't changed my view that this was a massive part of his motivation in buying the club and remains so. Ask anyone with a passing interest in Premier League football which company Mike Ashley owns, what percentage of them would be able to tell you? Far more than than would know which company Roman Abramovich owns, with Chelsea a far higher profile club.

It doesn't cone in dribs and drabs to minimise protest. It's done to maximie it. 3 years of news stories about sports direct for free. That's brilliant marketing.

This new Mumford & Sons one is almost indistinguishable from album one. Any song from it would slot onto that album without incongruity. I liked the first album, so no bad thing as far as I'm concerned.....I envisage a Gomez style backlash and a return to smaller venues pretty soon though.

Soz fact check man. Didn't you abandon it to him when he started getting more batshit than you could contend with though? He must have most posts in there. In fact did Wolfy arrive the day you started that thread? i think you gave KSA the inspiration for the character.

This is all going wrong..The power of the internets is too strong. All you motherfuckers are gonna pay. You are the ones who are the ball-lickers. We're gonna fuck your mothers while you watch and cry like little, whiny bitches. Once we get to Newcastle and find those Toontastic fucks who is makin' the posts... we're gonna make them eat our shit, then shit out our shit, and then eat their shit that's made up of our shit that we made 'em eat. Then you're all you motherfucks are next.

It shits all over anything done by Michael Buble or Take that or whatever other wedding favourites currently lead the way. Am I a Man or a Muppet? is also a class song. "If I'm a man then I'm a muuppet of a Man" -
Wolfy I'll stand corrected, but I think Wolfy's "Moon Landing" thread must be the longest thread in General Chat that was started in 2012. If he is an alias of someone he is the work of someone with great imagination and the ability to characterise better than 90% of Hollywood screenwriters. Very impressive writing. If he is really a new individual then he has shone a great deal of light on the failings of conspiracy theories that often get given too much credence. Like a modern Forrest Gump his simplicity exposes more about the people around him than it does himself. Is idiot savant the right description? Either way I could read him catching bigger and bigger fish with his preposterous lines of argument all day long.

The niceties weren't just an elaborate build up to that punch line btw, in case you have doubts

It seems to have a glitch on the "post" button mind.

Too much moaning, let's look on the bright side. Pick the posters you appreciate the efforts of and let us know why. Christmas Tree Over the past year or two CT has consistently been the biggest content provider on the board without a doubt, which is what the place needs. Whether you agree or disagree with him, whether he has the knowledge to back it up or not, whether you think he's funny or not, he is always game to jump into a thread and have his say. If he is wrong he'll take it on the chin and laugh at himself as much a anyone else is laughing at him, he'll never get huffy and hold a grudge at anyone having a dig at him. Whether you're discussing gourmet cooking and he does beans on toast, chatting the cream of television and he advocates Casualty, or discussing any NUFC matter and he says Shane is the solution. No heirs whatsoever, just having a laugh and looking to pick up some knowledge, it's what I always strived to do on here, but have struggled with as I become more jaded. An example to us all. Keep it up fella. ***Please note, this was strictly a posting choice. Ant has clearly put more actual work into this place in the background than anyone by a country mile and deserves all the praise for the gorgeous site/features we enjoy these days

The Muppets My Nephew wasn't as into this as me when we watched it at the pictures. I put the DVD on this weekend though and we ened up watching it through twice as well as him insisting that I put the soundtrack on a loop in the car for the 2 hour drive to and from Bellingham. I wasn't complaining either. It is a glorious film that everyone should see. Happy Song is not only one of the best Muppet songs or film songs, but a great song in its own right which I now want played at my wedding but the fiance is refusing to budge on. -
Forums are only any good when everyone agrees with each other and there are no 'characters'.

Wasn't fussed on the last 2. I'll tell you after I listen to this one.
