Aye, Happy Birthday Caterina! Hope it's a good un. STILL 10 months older than me!

LM's gonna go mental. Not only are you saying he can't abuse Souness over Luque, you're actually saying he's duty-bound to transfer all the abuse he's given Souness onto Shepherd. Oh dearie me.

These Indian call centres are the worst. The phone ones are the worst. I had one recently who lied and told me that BT had started using them as a calls provider and that I would be contacted by BT and all I had to do was sign and return the letter to them and it would all be handled. I kept questioning why I'd heard nothing from BT about this and the idiot kept assuring me that I would hear from them soon etc. Anyway, his supervisor must have been listening because he eventually comes in on the call and when I challenged what they were saying, the supervisor admitted that this had nothing to do with BT, and that the only way I would receive a letter from BT is if I agreed to go with this new provider there and then. Anyway I told the supervisor that he needed to have a word with the idiot who had called me, as he was basically lying and making it sound like it was a decision that BT had already taken on my behalf.

<<<<< "Look at my CV!"

Scours the globe. Big risk IMO. Especially from a man adamant that he "knows he must get it right this time". We shall see......

100076[/snapback] He MUST be bent.

Aye.

Well? Did you watch it? How much more comfortable is John Barnes when he's not talking into a camera? He's alreet at the roving reporter bit.

Interesting stuff re Bolton and Allardyce's management techniques.

No one springs to mind.

He used to be alreet an'all. Dunno what's up with him these days.

I've just got back from having it tattoo'd onto my chopper. 700 quid! No wonder I can't afford to go to games.

@ Gol's "any update?"s.

Are you not pleased we kept him? I know he's injured constantly, but I think if (huge if) we can get him playing regularly he's a big player for us. We look a totally different team when he's on song.

Doesn't the manager tell or recommend to his chairman who he wants to keep, sell, or buy ? 99879[/snapback] Aye then the chairman negotiates the contract. Incidentally, do you think Dyer wouldn't have got a new contract under Robson? 99882[/snapback] He wouldn't have got it under me 99896[/snapback] No room - Bellamy/Shepherd manwich tbh.

HTTO.

and Scottish, and Irish 99857[/snapback] On a (slightly) more serious note didn't MON win the Chronicle readers poll for who they wanted to be the next manager? Yet the N-O campaign speaks for the majority of Toon fans 99859[/snapback] LOOK AT HIS CV!!!

Where's the "Marty, not Otto" option??

The banner at the top needs changing. I don't think "The forum that brought you Martin O'Neill" would be overstating things.

Whole separate World Wide Web required in all honesty.

If it turns out to be a shit appointment, I might say it's "another shit appointment" like. Hindsight, baby.

Marty's reaction on hearing of our campaign.

By the way, don't get drawn into debates about Martin O'Neill or whether he is the right man to manage Newcastle United. We in the "O'N I'n" campaign KNOW about the man and don't need to even involve ourselves with those who aren't educated in the ways of Marty. By the way, Marty is how I expect you all to refer to him from now on. O'Neill is too formal, and having read Alex's dossier I feel like I know the man personally. Here's a tip as well: if anyone questions the campaign, type "Look at his CV!". Only do it with CAPS LOCK on, and use as many exclamation marks as you feel are necessary to ward off the moron that is questioning you.

I put £20 on O'Neill last week like, and I might up my bid. I'm crazy like that.

Give him a curly perm wig and a shellsuit and you'd be leading the chants tbh.
