especially when you've got a tenner on it!

after the leicester game on sunday we wild camped in the van in some woodland near the entrance to beamish museum and ended up having a few pints in the shepherd and shepherdess. got joined on our table by a couple from noplace who wanted to make a fuss of the dog. he was a mackem and I mean a proper one who hailed from deepest sunderland, similar age to meself and the conversation moved on from bull breed dogs to football. I told him I'd been to the match to which he remarked on it being a good win. bearing in mind where I live this was literally the first conversation I've had with a real life person rather than the ranting halfwits I've read on rtg. couldn't have been a bigger contrast, the bloke said he would absolutely love it if sunderland were now in our position with the potential ahead. I mean, for you who are still up in the north east and come in to more contact with our neighbours than I do, what is the norm? is it the bloke I.bumped in to or is it exile1968, sofatester, jlaws, skylon etc whose lives seem to be consumed by their outrage?

I'm not quite sure why you put the stars in there? everybody knows eddie's lad is called rocky thrower.

good read from post 1,619 on red cafe's general football forum with input from supporters of numerous clubs. loathe to give credit to an everton fan but hat doffed to silent witness who states a very reasoned case on wor beheadie. surprisingly there's no input from any mackems, you'd have thought their considered opinion that howe is a talentless, shite sympathiser for the murder of millions of babies would've enhanced the conversation! anyway, if you can be arsed.... https://www.redcafe.net/threads/so-lets-talk-about-eddie-howe.442511/page-41

7/1 with william hill to beat liverpool next weekend. think that's quite generous to be honest and worth a tenner. lucky to find 3's now for a top half finish, not quite so tempting at that price!

couldn't get on here till nearly 3, however had I been able to I would've congratulated eddie on a cracking starting line up.

anybody got a river? fucked off hesgoal are pussies!

lad from anfield plain I did me apprenticeship with at the ever ready only had one ear. bizarrely he claimed the other one was inside his head but hadn't folded out due his mother being a bus conductress and her ticket machine had applied pressure there throughout her pregnancy. reckoned he could've had an operation to get it out but it would cause inbalance and he'd topple over all the time. anyway, his nickname was monophone head. he didn't seem to mind.

meltdowns in walton. damned shame that.

forgot, we also need 8th choice beheddie to win manager of the season. an outbreak of spontaneous combustion in the leafy suburbs of pennywell.

we need the perfect storm.now. a top half finish. they miss the play offs. we spend double our january outlay. the don and charlie sell the loch ness drogba to a gloating joey barton . there's fuckers over there would literally explode.

bit hard work listening on the radio hat doffed to whoever chose to play primal scream's moving on up over the tannoy. fucking good record!

I'm sure these days it'd be deemed politically incorrect to encourage tommy to get up and sing little white bull. he was instantly recognisable around the city center bars in the 80s, every bit as much so as big hec. I never knew anybody who bought him a pint for singing his song to be taking the piss maliciously, he was genuinely liked and loved the attention. sad he's gone, chuffed he's got his photo up in the percy, he deserves it.

pretty sure you're right with the ball being played out of defence by nattress, macdonald let it drop over his shoulder and hit it on the volley. that's the way I remember it anyway, although I'm happy enough to admit I'm an old cunt and me memory's not what it used to be. that said, you're fucking miles out (nearly literally) with your 25 yards.

I was in the percy, strikingly handsome chap. you probably noticed me, surrounded by fawning minxy chicks. I did notice a photo on the wall in there dedicated to a newcastle legend tommy 'little white bull' crane. died aged 70 in 2016 apparently. made me feel rather sad.

@Christmas Tree ..... this you commenting at the end of truefaith's editorial? https://true-faith.co.uk/thru-black-white-eyes-easter-rising-18-apr-2022/

this place erupted today when his second goal went in. reckon the lad was properly moved by it. don't think it's being ridiculous to suggest we've got a kid here that's got the world in his hands.

weird game, like neither team could be all that arsed. delighted for bruno, best player on the pitch by a mile, second goal sent a previously subdued crowd mental! hopefully they can drum up a bit more enthusiasm for last few games because a top half finish is there for the taking but by god we need two new strikers as an absolute priority.

ct's trent house boobie watch.... disappointing, mostly covered up. better off stopping in the percy at £2.85 a pint!

I feel embarrassed just going past there when I leave the percy, I usually look the other way and jog briskly.

I got offered a potential opportunity a few weeks back to jump the queue (however its formed) through a former player who's still involved. not even sure I would want to commit to 16 or so weekends and 9000 miles commute anymore, though as I've said before I'd probably be interested in a workable way of sharing a one, if only to avoid the palaver of crashing websites. I am intrigued though how the club works it, does somebody who jacked it in over rafa a couple of years ago warrant the opportunity to get their ticket back over somebody who packed it in when ashley was renaming the ground the sports direct arena? I would make it a free for all, though I suspect those at n.u.s.t. who had a meeting with staveley are pushing for the former., maybe with a little bit of self interest? time will tell.

I wasn't biting mate. I genuinely thought it was brilliant! mind you, in all seriousness, I reckon it'll properly open up a can of worms!

brilliant. I reckon the 10,000 scabs who pissed on the graves of those who jacked in protest over rafa should have living shit kicked out of them.

I got me mate to get mine, I perv in stealth mode.

just finished reading the secret barrister's fake law. thought it a far easier actual read than his first excellent book and truly shocking in places with regard to myths surrounding our human rights, employment law and the legal aid system. the bloke very obviously has a place reserved in hell for chris grayling. look forward to his new book nothing but the truth coming out next month.
