Yeah, I'm seeing the GP next week, fortunately there are so many committed drug addicts round here that slipping me 56 temazepam won't raise an eyebrow. I don't think I've ever left that doctors without tranquilizers, even that time I went in with syphilis.

Cheers Gem, your suffering has helped give me perspective.

Even if you've been on the pop? That's almost worse than insomnia.

You're up early, have you been sleeping?

I keep getting up earlier and being awake later, when the overlap occurs I'm hoping I get the chance to punch my own lights out.

This is the formal way, and I have batted for both teams. The council noise abatement officers have the power to confiscate their equipment after one warning. Check out the Environmental Health section of their website or search for 'noise pollution'. If they are unable to visit when the noise is occurring, they will recommend your missus' folks start keeping a noise diary - write down when it starts, how loud it is and how long it lasts. Also record any attempts to reason with them. If they can remember they should record this retrospectively. I once took out someone's fuses (flats in a house) and threatened to shove them up their arse, they could try that if preferable.

They ironed on it.

Canny.

I'll send it you when finished if you like.

That wasn't what I was saying, I was responding to the inference that I have a chosen to support Newcastle and could change it if I have a problem with footballers getting rich, which I don't as the comment that led to that was a piss take anyway. People from Newcastle don't chose to follow them in the way people like yourself might.

Another astute assumption from Aeris, swiftly establishing herself as one of the board's great thinkers and a top, top humanitarian.

what, come on, if the money bothered you, you would never support a premier league club. you'd stick to watching gateshead or something... Doesn't answer the question, or make much sense and is approaching rude. I support them because it's where I'm from. It's part of my identity, my love for and, yes, empathy for the city, the region and its people. Stuff you know less than fuck all about, but keep trying desperately to join in with.

Is this alleged empathy MT's lacking toward these pampered millionaires? Or just you?

Dog Soldiers, Robert Stone. Very enjoyable.

Ooof!

Think the true course is changing the side when the basic 442 isn't working or certain players aren't playing well (Obertan). It was refreshing to have someone out there who could lay on a few passes AND help out Wilson. Thought Santon did very well at left back fwiw. Yeah, I agree with that and that is where it may fall down. The question we all ask; is Pardew bright enough? Santon was excellent, his forays were promising and responsible.

Fair comment too. Even if we do get a deal tied down, the Sword of Damocles hangs over all our treasures.

Ordinarily at this stage of the season and with this league placing it would be brave of Pardew to change the system enough to properly incorporate HBA's strengths. Having said that, the ACN does force the issue. In theory we should be better off playing with an integrated HBA, but where to play him? I imagine a Beardsley type role could suit, either off Ba or at the front of midfield diamond, but are you going to move Cabaye for him? I'm just not sure where to put him and I wonder if his work ethic fits Rapey's vision. Certainly it does not on the wings. I don't think Pardew is a huge risk taker, so Hatem has to prove he is low risk. I can only imagine he is not doing that in training or he'd be in.

Batman knows?

Take Messi's goals away from Barca and they would have been relegated last year.
