glad it went well Gemmill. Did you see Rob W on the ward? Concern is growing.

Film/moving picture show you most recently watched
Happy Face replied to Jimbo's topic in General Chat
I love you Philip morris Jim Carey and Ewan McGregor gay romantic comedy. Best romantic comedy I've seen this year I think. Martin Scorsese's journey through American cinema part 1 of 3. Love his to straight to camera narration. A lot of the American side of the story of film currently on more4 seems to have been pulled directly from here. Not just ideas but specific clips and interviews. Look forward to the next 2. -

It's nice to see Newcastle United doing so well
Happy Face replied to ajax_andy's topic in Newcastle Forum
Slightly disingenuous like. I'd suggest the first 13 games of 95/95 yielded more points than our last 13. Longest run without a defeat since then though. I feel like HF http://www.statto.com/football/stats/england/premier-league/1995-1996/table/1995-11-08 :-) -
Not a lot: http://www.zonalmark...s-stoke-wolves/ Someone should do a similar chart For Nile Ranger. Passes attempted versus Gangsta moves.

Steve Watson never used a towel for his Moscow State Circus style throw-ins. Proper.

Think it don't matter what our results are against the top 2 (they will beat more or less everyone this year). What will make or break our season given that our results against average and weak sides continues is our results against Arsenal, Liv and Spurs...Those games for me are the key indicators. Did you know that Man U did not win a single away game against top half opposition last season? Yet still won the league. I make this point (in a roundabout way) quite often about Man U and it can't be underestimated tbh. They will go away and lose at places like Liverpool etc and while the Scousers are there celebrating winning their cup final Ferguson simply won't bat an eyelid at it. He knows Man U will go on and beat the sides (the inferior/'easy' sides) that Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea etc will piss points away to and he picks up the league trophy at the end of the season. The importance of this applies equally to our start to the season. We've played several 'easy' sides but we would routinely piss points away to them/roll over and die in normal circumstances. This season we haven't-we've ground out results, employed gameplans, started with the mindset of not conceding goals, been cynical when necessary (towels) and had a 'never know when we're beaten' mentality and it deserves some fucking credit. As I say, the fact this is our best top flight result sequence in 60 years is an absolute disgrace and does put into perspective why we've never won owt. You can spend truckloads of money but you'll never see the best from that investment unless you've got those basic rudiments in place. I hope to fuck theres just even a moderate amount of investment this winter because it could make a real difference and more to the point this team actually deserves strengthening, the way they're wanting to play for the shirt. Just get half a fucking twitch in your pants, please Mike because this is what it's about. Your coaching staff are showing that even just a few quid is likely to be well deployed so lets treat January as the opportunity to keep pushing forwards, not backwards!! Refs giving nowt whatsoever to visitors at Old Trafford helps a bit too

HF, what's picture size/quality, frame rate and codec with it? Don't suppose you know if it's a rolling or global shutter? Not great... Recording 640x480 @ 30fps Video Format AVI More info... http://www.chilli-tech.com/store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=24 But they do an HD model if you want to spend a few more pound http://www.chilli-tech.com/store?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=21

I'd be a LOT more concerned if it was DEADers. I'm going to use his posts and Sammy Ameobi's Tweets in a proposal for a BBC3 sketch show for them to pair up in.

Going to see them the week after next. New album taking a pounding.

EDIT: Chelsea only managed to take 3 points away from Sunderland too.

Think I'll use the drivel to put £20 on Villa to get relegated. You can get 20/1.

Many are claiming otherwise. The Mackems, Stoke, Spurs and Arsenal are as difficult a run as anyone has had if you read some posts. I'm in complete agreement with what you've said here. After 19 games you can just look at the table and it'll be pretty indicative of how things are going to finish. We're not a patient bunch though. While people are making the claims above, right now, i was interested to see if (using an imperfect method) I could rank the starts of everyone in the league. Rest assured I'm not submitting it for peer review in the national journal of statistics.
-
Not much, we're only a small proportion of their start. There is a degree of circularity to it, but it does put things into context. And informs predictions. For example, Man City and Man U at polar opposites. As barnstorming as Man City have been (and even though they pulverised Man U), I'd still go with Man U for the title cos they've still kept it tight despite their much more difficult start. Liverpool and Chelsea have no excuses for their relatively poor starts. Villa are 9th, but look like they could be relegation bait in the long run.
-
I can't see why a fairer comparison is where a team finished last season. Surely the current manager/squad/performance is a better reference than last year. Latest... Stoke 8.2 Bolton 8.4 Man U 9 Sunderland 9.0 Arsenal 9.2 Wolves 9.2 Blackburn 9.3 Spurs 9.6 WBA 9.6 Everton 9.7 Wigan 9.8 ---------------- Chelsea 11.2 Liverpool 11.2 Swansea 11.4 Norwich 11.7 Fulham 12.0 QPR 12.6 Newcastle 12.8 Villa 12.9 Man City 13.1 Stoke now the team with the most difficult fixtures up to now (cos they played us)

Would have been what we've come to expect. He exceeded expectations \0/ -
The only one of those games the mackems lost was Norwivh though. The ones you cherry picked also ignored chelsea, arsenal and Liverpool. They've not been beaten by anyone in the bottom half. No-one is suggesting they're better than us, but they've had a harder start.

Transfers ? Who would / wouldn't you sign ?
Happy Face replied to south_cheshire_toon's topic in Newcastle Forum
Read more: http://www.mirrorfoo...l#ixzz1cSlqaD47 Given that we are predicted to break even and still have the Carroll money as our transfer fund then there's no logical reason for us to sell him. Unless there is money going out of the club, but we've been assured that isn't the case... While not as good as this season, on 10th November last year we were sat in 5th place with no logical reason to sell Carroll, just a fear we would. I'll take nowt for granted with Ashley. -
Woah there (that's American for stop a horse), we have to qualify for it first Deaders.
