The Fish

I reckon it's become even more cliquey lately. Who was the last new user to get properly involved in a thread?

Ahem http://www.toontastic.net/board/topic/36240-newcastle-v-leeds-friday-14th-april-745-ko/

Oh aye, I forgot about him

Gayle looks fucking delighted mind. Looks like he's just been woken up. As an aside, Christ alive how far along has the PR and Marketing division of Newcastle United come in a short space of time. Only a few years ago the launch of a new kit would have been a photograph of a gurning Steven Taylor in front of a Wonga board inside a Sports Direct shop. Oh and if they put Newcastle brown label on there as well, I will rip my cock off.

I was trying to think of their best (non-loan) players in recent memory; Mignolet Johnson Bent Defoe Who else? I suppose Gyan was decent, but he was hardly there.

Have you given everyone a point for the 2 void fixtures?

He's so dreamy

Never knew that That's going in the old memory bank, I reckon.

Oh, interesting is it? you BOG TROTTING IRA SYMPATHISER!

Just checked his twitter feed. All a little UKIP isn't it?

Won the Golden Shoe y'know? (with the 4th lowest goals tally in that competition*) *Is it a competition? Is that the right term?

I reckon he did mean best they've had. That said, they seem to think that, because Cattermole works hard and is therefore valuable to a team that is, more often than not, fighting relegation, he's a good player. He's not. He's utterly shit. And their reliance on him is a contributory factor in them being a team that's, more often then not, fighting relegation. But for years, they've had really bad players replacing really bad players, yet somehow, miraculously, surviving. I think that's lowered the bar. I'm not sure that it's a delusion, just a misalignment of what makes a quality player and what doesn't. Genuinely had a discussion with someone who insisted Sessegnon was better than Ben Arfa. Now, I know there are Newcastle fans who criticise him for his application, but even they would admit he's a better footballer than Sessegnon. so maybe the Sunderland fans are deluded :lol;

One thing I've noticed after spending a bit of time on there. It kind of makes sense that they value Cattermole and the like so highly, they've been absolutely starved of quality for years. Defoe is class, but the rest of their squads for the past decade or so have been a who's who of cloggers and fading stars. How often have they had a player who would walk into our side? Even the relegation sides? How many of ours would walk into theirs?

you spanner.

It's like they've swapped ears.

Saw that on twitter and briefly thought Bedford fans had kicked off

He's doing it for nothing, just the opportunity to prove the knobheads on twitter that he's better at this than they are. Myself included.

Reports that it was a big firecracker thrown at the bus. or "THEM FUCKN MUZZYS AGIN" so, y'know, could be anything

He really is one though. Finds Mrs Brown's Boys hilarious but hates the tv license, doesn't see why he should have to pay for post-natal care when it could funding away from vital research into hair loss and erectile dysfunction. Hides it all behind this pleasant facade, but honestly, when he thinks nobody's paying that much attention he mutters Daily Mail headlines under his breath

Boss, we haven't scored like this in months and Willo can't remember where he lives any more. Fahkin' exactly Colo me ohld choyna! Them cahnts won't spect it! The teams he had available to him though; Harper, Krul, Debuchy, Janmaat, Simpson, Colo... Enrique... Tiote, Cabaye, Jonas, Nolan, Ba, Ben Arfa, Carroll, Cisse. Some weren't amazing, but Jesus Christ they're all Premier League standard and we should have done more with what we had. Imagine Benitez with that lot.

If you love them so much why don't you marry them?

Remember when Cabaye curled a free kick to the far post (shocker I know) and we scored, and in the post game interview Pardew couldn't fucking wait to tell the world the goal was down to him? I bring it up because I'm convinced that's the only time he's told Yohan Cabaye to do anything but "'Ave a good gayme moi sahn"

I know it was Wacky and I know it was typically Wacky, but I can't for the life of me remember the rest of that.
