I've quite fancied reading some more Iain Banks, I've only ever read 'The Wasp Factory' tbh. 66152[/snapback] Ive read pretty much all of them. (I gave up on the science fiction ones fairly quickly) My personal favourite is "The Bridge" 66162[/snapback] He writes as Iain M. Banks for his science fiction stuff I believe??? I've heard it's canny hard going like. Might investigate some of his other fiction. I thought 'The Wasp Factory' was great. 66163[/snapback] I was talking about the wasp factory at work and just worked out it was over 20 years ago I first read it fookin hell. Iain Banks is one of the very few authors whose books I actually buy and read when they come out. Mind you I do only seem to buy Poker books since I got the bug. So for thread purposes I am currently reading Harrington on Hold-em Vol 1 @ 2 by Dan Harrington

Well done Souness for getting a transfer fee for such an injury prone player -
No of course I didn't know one way or the other whether they were good appointments or poor appointments. As usual, I hoped that they would do the business and I then gave both men time to prove themselves. Now you answer me this - what does that have to do with what we're talking about? I didn't answer it because it was utterly irrelevant. 65967[/snapback] oh, right you answered this. Or didn't. Nowt like sitting on the fence. Just as well Shepherd isn't as decisive as you And it's totally relevant, it proves that you only exercise hindsight when making criticisms or giving praise if appropriate ..... anyone can do that 65975[/snapback] Yeah Gemmil. Stop that weighing up the evidence shite, thats for hypocrites and bandwagon jumpers

Bertrand Russell was an idiot who couldn't add up, spell or argue properly 65919[/snapback] Canny with the pithy epithet though but

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts. Bertrand Russell British author, mathematician, & philosopher (1872 - 1970)

Pompey call press conference for 5pm
spongebob toonpants replied to Craig's topic in Newcastle Forum
Saw Portsmouth, Southampton and Redknap described yesterdayas "two bald men arguing over a comb". Thought it summed the situation perfectly -
You're on a wind-up, right? 65731[/snapback] It just infuriates me the way he is treated as some sort of sage/prophet/saint.

I dunno why the Lennon Williams comparison is so bad They were both in boy bands and went solo. AT least Wiliams hasn't released anything as bland as Woman.

Imagine has to be the most overated song in history. Complete and utter sentimental pap. And this from a man who rented a whole floor of the Dakota building for his wifes fur coats. Utter hypocrite. His veneration makes me puke. Wrote a couple of canny pop songs, then again so has Robbie Williiams

Do you feel sorry for Sunderland?
spongebob toonpants replied to Zvindon Magyar's topic in Newcastle Forum
I cant say i feel sorry for them, but I am not really gaining any enjoyment from their utter uselessness -
An unacceptable breach of protocol, really. 65612[/snapback] Sorry. If its any consolation Mrs spongebob has just called me "a right sad bastard" as I explained my Swindy excitement

I think this might be my favourite ever post tescos finest burgers- we start with an oxymoron. Then we are supposed to be impressed by the "sundried tomatoes with basil", my arent we metropolitan. Mind you by the time we get to the Jalopena relish spongebob is thinking mmmm thems are tasty. "Two of the fuckers" oooh you're hard!!

maybe 65505[/snapback] Ok if leazes and htl promise to shut up about Bellamy I am convinced. Souness out
-
So...........................where do you stand on Craig Bellamy?

I still think sacking him is a bad idea. I havent got the time or the energy to argue about it though

totally agree, and I can't for the life of me see how anyone could be against Keegan coming back to Newcastle. For my money, despite what they say now, if it happened they and the whole city would be jumping. I don't think he has ever been the same since he left Newcastle, he fits at Newcastle and even if he didnt' repeat what happened the first time, he would lift everyone and the 2005-06 version is still light years better than the cretin we have in now He left a good squad of players at man city. He put into place the foundation which has lifted Fulham from the old 3rd division to where they are now. Every club he has been at has benefitted hugely from him. 64277[/snapback] I totally agree with leazes and htl I cant see it happening bit I would luv it if he came back.

I think you are wrong about liver donations falling Renton, I am sure Iread somewhere last week that donations increased after the publicity surrounding Bests liver transpalnt I also find it questionable that people who dont know him feeel the need to slag him whereas it would appear that everyone who knew/ met him hasnt hasd a bad word to say about him
