Souness will do, has done, nothing for Newcastle but harm. And the worse part is the prick is going to fluke a cup and be a geordie hero and that is just wrong.

Is so wrong, so right, so wrong and again is right but overall is all wrong in what he writes.

But Bramble is our last line, Nobby was well into their half of the field, you said it yourself and trying to start an attack. Fuck me shaker, after seeing what bramble and boumsong did with the ball for most of the game I can understnd why Nobby was reluctant to pass the ball backwards. As a players you have to have confidence in your team mates to pass to them and I highly doubt our central defensive pair are doing that in their team mates at the moment. Honest question: Weren't you one of the people on another board that always put shite on Nobby and supported his sale? I just seem to remember someone with a similar username from the states that wasn't a fan of him.

Is a generalising, classist bigot who thinks that because we are beneath him geographically that we are lower class than he and therefore is a prat. (I would call him a twat but he's not that interesting.)

wishes mags had a firm grasp on him.

Should know I haven't actually refered to them as "testicles" since I was a child but often us the word scrotum.

Well he's not the one to say if he's been influenced or not is he? Whatever we listen to influences us one way or another. I can say German Trance doesn't influence me because I don't EVER listen to it (if it even exists) but if I listen to something, it's an influence. I'm not saying Foo Fighters are striving for that elusive U2 sound that coldplay manage so well. But it's not as if they are offended by the very existence of Bono which Sammy seems to be suggesting. 59858[/snapback] Did I say they were offended? No I just think it is a bit rich someone saying that U2 have influenced these people especially in the light that they have named the very people who have influenced them. Thank you meenzer, you have summed up my point in one sentence.

Happy face glad you awaited my response. Sorry but I disagree. The Beatles are a far better example and really set the standard, U2 as I mentioned earlier are not the pacesetters, mere followers of what other have done before. Listen to Tom York speak, there is none of this "we are the greatest band in the world" dribble. The guy is modest and knows that it is an honour to make a living doing something they enjoy. And I went to a wedding the other day and someone played the exact same song. So just because some owns it, listens to it doesn't make it an "influence." I own a host of stuff that I have been given or bought out of sheer stupidity but it doesn't "influence" me. Ok maybe I was a bit harsh but the first interview I heard with Green Day around 1990, the singer (I don't know his name) was talking away and he had this cockney accent and I thought fuck i thought these guys were from the states. Turns out they were and he spoke like that because [cockney accent] dats how a punk band speaks, right! [/cockney accent] and that has stuck with me ever since. They could write Juju by Wayne Shorter and all I'd hear is that stupid fucking voice. So whatever my opinion is, do peole really believe that U2 has been a greater influence on contempary guitar music than: Jim Morrison, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Zepplin, Purple, bowie, the birds, the stones, the who, the 60's psychedelic, the blues masters, glam rock, the whole English punk movement, new wave, fuck even Paul Weller. And I even forgot the Beatles. I can't disagree U2 have been successful but so have people like Mariah Carey and a host of other talentless trash that I can't be bother mentioning and do you really think they have influenced others?

I don't know meenzer, their support for catholism is laughable.

Exactly, it all down to personal taste, and it's pointless arguing about it really. Now personally, I respect U2 but somehow could never bring myself to waste time listening to them, unless they were played at a pub/club/wedding do etc. They are just too bland and don't suit my tastes. I've never particularly minded Bono though, although again I would never listen to an interview with him if I could avoid it. 59465[/snapback] THis what I'm getting at - its not so much about liking or disliking them its about degrees of respect. I like HM quite a lot and Black Sabbath are one of my faves. Its recognised that Sabbath along with Led Zep and Deep Purple are "founding fathers" of the genre. As it happens I've never liked Led Zep's music but I still "respect" their place in the scheme of things. More than 95% of the music I listen to is guitar based. Even if I don't like a particular band/artist the fact that they use guitars "properly" means I consider them as having a good start and worthy of a base level of respect. To use phrases like "wipe their existence from history" for any guitar based band is just something I couldn't contemplate. I save any contempt I have for artists and genres who don't "bat for my team" like mainstream dance which I find painful to listen to and manufactured pop. 59787[/snapback] What absolute bollocks! You are saying that U2 ARE THE INFLUENCE on all contempary guitar based bands. What you think they invented stadium rock??? You think that because Bono strutted around in leather pants Michael Hutchence decided to follow? NJS you seem like a person with more musical knowledge than that but obviously that's not the case. I'm amazed at people's complete lack of knowledge or is it just ignorance? Jim Morrison, Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Zepplin, Purple, bowie, the birds, the stones, the who, the 60's psychedelic, the blues masters, glam rock, the whole English punk movement, new wave, fuck even Paul Weller are far bigger influences on contempary guitar bands than the U2. I give you this U2 are good as a point of reference for contempary bands as to how successful they are in comparison for record sales and gig sizes. But is that really anyway to measure music??? No, I think not.

Even Bellars was smart enough to spend some of his millions on trying to fix his gob, shame he couldn't have had the doc remove the shite that comes out of it. Goes to prove money can't buy everything.

Renton you sure you're not just thinking of the script you're writing for Porky's 5!

Anyone notice the toilets at Cardiff had no urinals (at least not on level 6, and not if you discount the sink). How stupid was that? The toilets at the Cumberland in Tynemouth always confuse people. 59674[/snapback] Soopafan alert! 59676[/snapback] Well I'm assuming everyone on here went, except Craig, obviously. 59678[/snapback] Sammy went on my ticket (long-ish story). 59680[/snapback] Meaning manc-mag. Sammynb wouldnt have got one cheek on one of them seats. 59683[/snapback] Who you calling fat boy? I'm not 15 stone! Anyway my arse fit on the poor excuse for a seat in Eindhoven's away end, so the seats at Cardiff must be g-string size (thong for all you americans).

But Ronaldinho doesn't "look" much chop anyway. Could you imagine having Ronaldinho and Van Nistelhorse in the same team? Hey Ronnie why the long face? Fuck you horseface? No sir I don't like it.

She does make the news a lot more palatable. Without returning to my over enthusiasm for this subject, someone sent me this pic the other day under the title, nice trainers!

should try here: enjoy the testicals

Craig Johnstone and for Liverpool? just a wild guess 59251[/snapback] Not even close plus Craig decided he was English and played for the England U21s. 59254[/snapback] His hair was definitely Australian. 59334[/snapback] Got to love the mullet! And the more of the fuckwits that wear them that we can export out of Australia will make the world a better place, my world anyway. Come on anyone know the answer. Another hint he played in the 1950s.

geordie fish goes to see the doctor. "What's wrong?" asks the physician. "Well sometimes I feel like a teepee and sometimes I feel like a wigwan!" answers the fish. "Well just calm down," answers the doctor, "you're two tents."

So no-one gets to offended, the above isn't completely true. Mum isn't in a nursing home, she's fine. The rest, well you have to have a licence to drive a car, own a gun or a dog even a telly in the UK but any bastard can be a father.

should know I've got the postal service and like U2 I think it's over-rated. needs to listen to toshack highway.

Finds it hard to tell the difference between the jokes he makes and the joke he is.

Who needs wool GF, it's summer! On a sad note and a bit of a home truth, I haven't seen my dad for 15 years now. Not after the last time he punched seven bells out of my family and I. I think he's up for parole in about 5 years time but thanks for bring up that painful memory. I'll make sure my mum knows you were asking about how good our family is next time I go visit here in the nursing home she has had live in since the last time we saw my father.

My football team are the Ravens and as we are playing in a number of summer fussball competitions I decided that we should be called: the edgar allen poes - for the 1st team & that knocking raven - for the 2nd team but do you thnk anyone gets it? Fucking illiterate Australians.

Fish face, it's 4:40am, why are you still awake?
