  1. A. Fuck knows how Ashley is a billionaire. B. What is he paying Bishop for?
  2. I think that’s definetly at least in the thinking of the likes of Banks & Farage. JRM & his ERM cronies are battling the 50 year Tory war iyam though.
  3. Thats a really good post. I think the relatively uneducated working classes (I include myself in that group) have always been easy to manipulate by the powerful throughout the ages. Brexit is just another symptom of it. Thing is we have access to far more information now than those who were fighting for the Empire etc. We largely don’t want to listen to it though, we want to believe what we want to believe and we certainly can’t judge the character of blatant utter cunts like JRM, Johnson, Farage and Banks because we’re mostly taken in by their fuckin born-to-rule voices. Gullible doesn’t cover it really
  4. What do you think will be the terms of the deal? if May climbs down on anything she’s finished and so might be the Tory party in general. It’s becoming crystal clear that this isn’t about the UK as a democratic country, it’s about and always has been about the future of the Tory party as an election winning machine. She’s indisputedly putting party before country. She’s a remainer too. That’s how fuckin deeply the disease of Toryism runs through her and every single one of them who is prepared to run the country off a cliff in the name of principles that only the likes of them can afford. You, my dear son, have been had by them.
  5. Ive just messaged my mate Neil to see if I was there....am thinking I was but I literally have no memory of it... I can blame drink though, Yes, I’m an owld fucker, I’ll say it before you do
  6. Thanks for posting, never seen that before. It’s like Keegan has the gift of foresight...
  7. Some forget that the radged blood feud Balkan cunt couldn’t get any trust from Rafa because he was sent off three times the season we got relegated. He was suspended for a total of seven games. Things seem to have improved for him on that front, fair play to him. I think a manager from the same part of the world who understands him and can play to his strengths helps enormously. He’s gone, we finished tenth largely without him last season.
  8. Two shite teams. On a brighter note we found somewhere in South London where it’s £3 a pint
  9. Ic Given the demanding fixture list so far, it is no surprise Newcastle are in the bottom three. A truer judgement of the side’s quality can be made over the next two months, starting with Saturday’s trip to Crystal Palace. Games against Leicester, Brighton, Southampton and Watford follow soon. The season has to kick into shape now. Given the demanding fixture list so far, it is no surprise Newcastle are in the bottom three. A truer judgement of the side’s quality can be made over the next two months, starting with Saturday’s trip to Crystal Palace. Games against Leicester, Brighton, Southampton and Watford follow soon. The season has to kick into shape now. But the reality is Newcastle travel to Selhurst Park as underdogs. Crystal Palace, on paper, is a superior side. There is no-one of Wilfried Zaha’s class in the Newcastle squad, which is why Benítez has opted for a much more defensive approach to keep the team up. Leicester are far better, too. They are the type of club Newcastle fans must watch and think, ‘why can’t we be like them?’ We all talk about the miracle of their Premier League win – and given the standard of opposition in the top six it was – but look deeper and it was achieved with smart investment. Leicester’s owners appointed a renowned ex-Valencia, Chelsea and Napoli manager and spent money to build the team – as they still do with signings such as James Maddison for £25 million. It does not guarantee the unprecedented success of a title, but it ensures you go into every game believing you can win, even against the top sides. It is a long time since Newcastle could say this.

It is a long time since Newcastle could say this. ised Benítez’s style last season, believing they should have been more positive in their home games reg I criticised Benítez’s style last season, believing they should have been more positive in their home games regardless of the calibre of opponent. I stand by that, but in a strange way I think taking on the Newcastle job and being prepared to set-up his side in such a manner is brave from Benítez knowing the criticism that will come, and the damage it can do to him when trying to attract the attentions of a club competing in the Champions League – a competition he had spent 13 consecutive years managing in prior to his move to Newcastle. It was telling that when the Arsenal job came up in the summer, they turned to a manager less successful in Spanish football and with none of Rafa’s Premier League experience. Knowing Rafa as I do, he will be desperately missing the Champions League, watching those games in midweek and so frustrated he is not trying to outsmart those younger coaches. He will feel he has one more crack at the European elite in him, but he would have to go back overseas to do it. The shame for Newcastle is they could have been that ‘one last big job’ if they had just some of the cash – and ambition – of Premier League rivals. Newcastle fans justifiably argue they can never achieve such lofty ambitions until Ashley gets out of St James’ Park. For Benítez to satisfy his and enhance a decorated list of honours, he will go first. ardless of the calibre of opponent.

  10. Smashing. Historians of the future will no doubt call it “Noel Edmonds day”
  11. Now that a bunch of continental suits have eviserated Chequers can any of you EU geniuses tell me if there will still be a commons vote on how we leave the EU? ...
  12. Sane guy goes into the bakers again and starts perusing what's on offer under the glass... Sees something he likes so asked the lass "Is that a doughnut or a meringue?" "No, you're right, it's a doughnut"
  13. Villa have owners who wanted Thierry Henry in the summer. Agent Bruce isn't making a great fist of it this time round...again...he'll be available before Xmas iyam
  14. Annihilated...again... This however, is fuckin serious and what many of us feared 're the NHS Rightwing thinktanks unveil radical plan for US-UK Brexit trade deal https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2018/sep/18/rightwing-thinktanks-unveil-radical-plan-for-us-uk-brexit-trade-deal-nhs?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard
  15. Not my decision... “We can do more with the money” is the message from the Dorset Taliban
  16. It's especially brilliant after a lunchtime kick off. You can work your way along Haymarket then round the evening off singing along to Simply The Best by Tina Turner along with half a dozen Gosforth dinner ladies, all wrecked on Jaeger & cheap "prosecco"
  17. Can't think that I've ever been tempted...like @Howmanheyman I'm more of a Popworld man meself
  18. I do think there's little to lose in properly targeting the interior of the stores. The only thing is the poor sods on the shop floor not getting paid if they had to evacuate the shop due to a sudden noxious substance attack
  19. Direct action on his stores is the way ahead... a team of highly motivated deep cover stealth Mags to enter his shitty stores and drop stink bombs at 2pm every Saturday afternoon. Setting the sprinklers off is another belter. Applicants for this gig must be willing to suffer the inevitable public order/criminal damage conviction. Buckets for donations to the fighting fund to pay any fines handed down by the courts to be strategically placed in the following premises: Labour Club Rosies Newcastle Arms Tyneside Irish club The clock Black garter Goose 3 bulls Hotspur The Percy Crows nest Gotham Forth Raffs Tilleys Bodega Mile Castle Union Rooms Operations to be carried out only after at least one drink in all these licencesd establishments
