  1. Nice one mate, glad it's finally sorted for you. Estate agents are robbing bastards mind. I've decided to leave this place but rent for another year, big struggle cos this place is a converted mill in Manchester city centre and it's really nice, but it's also freezing and expensive. Going to move out to a suburb and look for something that has proper central heating.
  2. The way they used the poor teenager to get to his uncle was dispicable imo, that kid definitely didn't cut a woman's throat. Think Avery probably is a shitbag but the whole innocent until proven guilty thing seemed the wrong way round in this trial, the cops all seemed dodgy as did all the prosecution and even his first defence lawyer. Got to remember though that it was a documentary not a complete recount of everything presented so it could have been cut and edited to make it look more corrupt than it was. The plebs from anonymous have said on Twitter that they will release proof he was framed, not holding my breath.
  3. 50 million is nowt, especially given the state the squad was in due to massive underspending in previous years. It's almost as if years of scraping by with the bare minimum and feeding loyal fans a load of shite has finally caught up with NUFC.
  4. Got a hernia where I had my cancer op last year. Weird little fucker pops back in when I push it, going back under the knife next week to strap it back down. Also got a bad back because I have been compensating for the hernia, and the flu, and I started back at work today. 2016 is shit
  5. Depends what constitutes a meal tbh.
  6. Isn't our squad "full"? Like we have registered 25 players? So would either need to unregister someone who would get paid and not play or sell someone, both pretty unlikely.
  7. Hope everyone had a good one and all the best for this year x
  8. Not sure how to do spoilers on iPad so I will hold my tongue but further reading around the case expands on the show if you are interested.
  9. Got four other couples coming over for a bit food and drinks, been volunteered to cook for 2 vegans, a veggie and a pescitarian with lactose intolerance. Still going to get what they are given or go hungry.
  10. I finished it last week. Its class but I wont say anything until you have all caught up.
  11. Thats bollocks though. There are many reasons a fan wouldnt or couldnt go to the match on a regular basis. Doesn't make them any "less" of a supporter. Also everytime I go to any match live the amount of absolute bullshit and nonsense I hear spouted by the people around me is astounding. The kind of fan that thinks Colback offers anything to the team or gets furious at a throw in going the wrong way, mouthbreathers. Are they better fans than people who actually know something about football? Are the they shite. But best ignore me because I probably only get to 2/3 home games a season, so I dont think im invested enough.
  12. Aye I understand that. But if you wanted to pick a particular game to vent all that pent up fury then surely the 5-1 against palace was the one? Personally passed anger a long time ago and well onto acceptance/apathy which is even sadder I suppose.
  13. There is many reasons to be pissed off as a newcastle fan. Not sure a tight 1-0 loss where we could just have easily won is the biggest reason mind.
  14. Some proper super fanning going on in here mind, just because you live in Newcastle and go to games doesnt make you any more knowledgable or invested in the team imo. Thought after the first half an hour we played OK, not good but OK. Anita and Colo were probably our best. Missed two sitters in the last two games that give us an extra 6 points, big difference and feeling.
  15. I essentially work for a housing association, due to budget cuts in the coming years we have had a round of voluntary redundancies. Luckily we had a lot of people who have been here long enough to make it work for them so no compulsory necessary. It will however fuck a lot of housing associations over, and in turn council tenants who need our services.
  16. I've read most of the graphic novels (comics if you prefer) and I could never get away with the show.
  17. The new CDM regs can be a ballache for domestic clients as well if you/your contractor arent up to speed.

    Euro 2016

    I went to uni in Scotland and was in the uni bar watching England play in a tournament. There was this bloke/kid wearing a Scotland top and kilt with his face painted supporting whoever it was we were playing, Scotland didn't even qualify. Little man syndrome that.
  19. Aye maybe you are both right. But I actually work with and know them, so I am.
  20. I would expect their 3 behind Kane to cause our fullbacks and central midfield a lot of trouble. I think we could bother them on the break especially down either side, Rose isn't a LB and Walker despite playing ok can't defend. I have always hated Spurs, the fact our misses' old man is a spurs fan doesn't help. Narrow win either way for me, probably lose.
  21. Pure conjecture but there is a proper chav family at the puppy class with this ratty dog that was basically a fucking mong. I would put money on that being the source of the kennel cough, the pneumonia is just because she is a pup and swallowed the shite she was coughing up from the KC.
  22. I grew up with dogs so I guess I took them for granted (got a 14 year old lab at my mam and dads). Bit different now that I have one of my own, got a bit emotional leaving her at the vets tbh. Cheers btw, how did you explain away the shrooms though?
