I'll ask my mate Muhammet when I'm in Turkey next week, he's a huge Trabzonspor fan

Standard MO for the Glazers, did a similar thing with screwing fans with ticket prices shortly after they bought the Bucs. (Bucs fans deserve all they get mind) Got a mate in Tampa and predicted there'd be some ticket fun and games

The itk poster Whatever at skunkers he say: If your reading this Whatever, I make no apology for the plagiarism, and despite your current run of form, you're screwed the minute you get anything wrong

Extra penny a share - excellent! an additional £10.50 for me I reckon including dividends I've probably not lost too much on the original purchase

I always thought tackling was the art of removing possession of the ball from an opponent, can be usefull at times IMO.

£80K a week for a right-back who on current evidence can't tackle

Worked there for two and a half years, it's OK for a night out to be fair, but when on the beer NEVER wait until the last minute before going for a piss, in almost every pub's the mens bogs are either up or down numerous flights of stairs and fucking miles away from the bar area. First sign of needing releif, start the trek you'll be bursting by the time you get there !!

Probably more use than Terry Mac

They'll justify it because it was someone else's fault (again)

Newcastle to meet Ashley as billionaire buys control

Newcastle to meet Ashley as billionaire buys control
Toonpack replied to Scottish Mag's topic in Newcastle Forum
Would tend to agree, the 41% is owned by his holding company, who can say what he's got personally that he doesn't have to declare as yet. I wouldn't think he'd have to declare anyway, because the holding company is the entity making the bid not him personally. mebe's, possibly, potentially. Wasn't there some moves in the last few weeks where about 10% of the shares moved somewhere ? -
Newcastle to meet Ashley as billionaire buys control

That is a bit fucking mental, I know Ashley doesn't like the limelight but to complete a £55m deal without even meeting is very strange. The scorn in SJP just highlights what little fish they are, people with that much moolah as Ashley don't get their hands dirty doing the business, their "people" handle it all. Not unusual at all IMO. Worked for a company once where the MD (double figures millionaire) ordered a new Ferarri, his PA bought it//did the deal on his behalf, he just set the ball rolling and the budget. -
I like his sister Leanne, she's hot and saucy sorry

Faked his own death didn't he? CJ for Director of football Joan for a roasting (be a tough old bird now like)

Allardyce plots shift in midfield with bid for Ghana's Boateng
Toonpack replied to Jimbo's topic in Newcastle Forum
That the same fella who predicted Rossi and Sibierski? Not too impressed with the purchase of Barton if that's the case. Poor man's Gerrard, with an insane man's attitude. Yep -

Gent of Skunkers who predicted Allardyce ages ago, reckons Barton and Viduka very likely -
I bought three lots at the issue, so I reckon my "where do I sign and can I do it yesterday" stance will negate Leazes' show of love for the incumbent twat

Wide of the mark

American immigration officers really are in a league of their own. Twats. I actually got a "nice" one last time I went to Chicago, they're twats in Turkey mind
-
Thanks for the input folks Having looked around a bit more looks like we're doing California, Vegas and S Carolina. Should be good Regarding the immigration thing, I reckon immigration officers must be in some worldwide misserable bastards club !!!!

Aye that's where I lived when I was there. It's class, and it's only an hour on the plane from there to Vegas (you can drive it in a day, but it's not pleasant at all). Lake Tahoe is 3 or 4 hours away if you wanted somewhere to go in the country, and Monterey and Carmel are day trips down the Pacific Coast Highway. In terms of stuff to do in San Francisco, there's the touristy stuff like Alcatraz, the cable cars, the bridge, and just wandering around the city. You can get the ferry over to Sausalito which is nice for a day out, or drive over the bridge and go to Stinson Beach which is another decent day out. Not much wild west there though. Lots of puffs which I gather is right up your alley. Be extinct by the time I get there in October man !

The Carolinas made the list because as you say it's supposed to be beautifull The timeshare can be used anywhere in the world, basically. But fancy doing somewhere in the US (boring I know) but means I can fit in my freebie Vegas trip with me pal. Fancied Arizona from a wild west type of thing, deserts etc, and it'll be in October so probably not too hot. But not set on that at all. Was thinking of Tucson, but having read up a bit seems you shouldn't go out after dark California's a consideration but it's a mighty long haul getting there Memphis, Nashville and New Orleans are all worth a visit and driving between them is do-able an'all - there's stuff to do in Memphis (Graceland, Sun Records, Civil Rights Museum - they've converted the actual motel where King was shot into a museum), although tbh there's not much to do in Nashville but laugh at people linedancing in pubs. There's loads really, but I would put Arizona fairly low on a list of places to visit in the US. If you went to California, you could go to say San Diego and drive to Vegas. Or LA and drive to Vegas via Death Valley. You could go a bit out of your way into Arizona to the Grand Canyon on either of those trips too. You're probably only looking at 2 hours difference in flight time between California and Arizona too, I would have thought? Thought about Nawlins but not sure how it's recovered from that bit of wind and rain it had Deffo going to do Grand Canyon from Vegas, might check out San Diego as well, what about Frisco ?? you've been there a few times haven't you ?
