  1. Be sure and mention this @Howmanheyman only 35 years ago today.... random snippet of Vinnie Jones at the end
  2. 20 million bid from wolves. Allegedly.
  3. Well if Rafa is willing to sell him, what are Rafas reasons for doing so? What you're claiming doesn't make sense to me. He's a significant financial asset regardless of anyone's opinion of his playing ability him on here, Rafa has to sell to buy. You and Andrew seem to be saying he'd be selling last seasons top scorer just to give Ashley the money? Maybe he's not fully recovered from his hamstring which happened last December and Rafa fancies someone more physically robust, or Joselu is his replacement and he's going to spend the money on a left back and a midfielder?... it seems nuts that we may be about to do this but this is what Ashley has laid down, that being the case I don't have a problem with it if it means Rafa getting closer to what he wants.
  4. Gayle not even on bench ....injured or being sold to Villa on Monday to raise funds for Jovetic or Praed?....
  5. Don't remember leave mentioning this.....amongst all the other things they didn't mention obviously.. http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/brexit-housing-crisis-uk-just-lost-its-biggest-funder-a7909886.html
  6. Hed likely have been fighting Danny Behr for a stroke of it Alex you may remember the late Alan Macdonald played at the back for QPR when Les was there? I know a bloke who grew up AM in Belfast and he used to go to weekly card schools attended by all the QPR lads back then, can't remember who was host but they were just a ruse apparently to get Les away from his missus for a night so he could nip upstairs with the aforementioned Miss Behr for a bit of "extra training" whilst the lads played a few hands of three card brag downstairs
  7. Saw this at the weekend. Made me sad! https://heterocephalusgabler.wordpress.com/2016/12/14/behind-brexit-lies-a-yearning-for-a-past-we-destroyed/amp/
  8. 2nd best all over the pitch to a team who finished 14 points behind us last season. Merino anonymous, Manquillo useless. Can't see a lot changing significantly in the next 10 days either Ashley's made that pretty clear.
  9. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/the-trump-administrations-three-court-jews-disgrace-themselves/2017/08/18/929a68b4-840c-11e7-ab27-1a21a8e006ab_story.html
  10. Dipped bullets in pigs blood to reeeally offend Moslems.....yeah, like good one Donnie... http://time.com/4905420/donald-trump-pershing-pigs-blood-muslim-tweet/
  11. My 17 year old niece is there visiting her old man she's fine but she and my poor sister at home near Kelso had a massive fright
  12. Its not making a point is it? This is what we're getting with the budget Rafas been provided with. There's no dressing it up positively or negatively. This is it.
  13. I think It's all there in the club's & Ashley's statements. Rafa has, in my opinion despite what he said last week, to get rid of players before he can spend even a moderate amount in what's left of this window; "Rafa can have every penny the club generates, including money from player sales" Then Ashley last week basically saying he's not going into debt to finance strengthening the squad. Fuck knows what they told Rafa in May/June. Most championship clubs who go on like this go straight back down. I think we stand a better chance than most of staying up. With hindsight being that wonderful thing it was probably always going to be like this. Tbf a lot of us said from the moment Rafa confirmed he was likely to be fucked around by fat boy and leave in a hurry at some point because of it. Or of course you could say you wouldn't re mortgage a house and go into significant debt if you were about to put it on the market.... Joselu is apparently a big lad who can hold the ball up well (if they think they can shift Mitro I think they will tbh) & 5 mill is nothing, but this lad Mounie who scored 2 for Huddersfield at the weekend was 11 million and scored something like 1 less goal than Mbappe in Ligue 1 last season. Could be an excellent signing for them. Compare that to a journeyman who couldn't get a game for Stoke fuckin City last season
  14. Brilliant article on England's tour to the West Indies in 1986, there's a link in it to an Indian journos interview with Patrick Paterson which is well worth a read too https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2017/aug/13/scariest-test-england-ever-played-terror-west-indies-cricket-1986-patrick-patterson?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other
  15. https://newcastle-production-premium.azurewebsites.net/news/latest-news/three-fixtures-selected-for-tv-coverage Brighton away @ 4pm on a Sunday ☑️ Southanpton away @ 4pm on a Sunday ☑️ Anyone would think sky fuckin hate us...
  16. 30 years since Eric B & Rakim released Paid in Full, which I was going to put on here, but then I came across this
  17. 65k a week allegedly. Reckon hes in a WhatsApp group with his old mate Kyle Walker Thing is none of them have won so much as a tin pot in their careers. Ashley could invest say 150mill over the next 3 windows, then Rafa may somehow get us in the top 4/5 and the same would happen to us. At the top level in the early 21st century, the 90 minutes on the pitch is still quite often something well worth the effort to watch. Almost every other facet of the game is fuckin nauseating
  18. You want to replace Dummet with a player you've never seen play. That's like splitting up with your missus, joining a dating site and only choosing girls on there who haven't put a photo up
  19. Well fuck me this is gutting for nufc 3 days before we play Spurs, ex mackem plodder Danny Rose basically leaves a turd in Daniel Levy's desk draw https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/4209426/tottenham-danny-rose-exclusive-wage-worth/
  20. Ive had enough of it. Some complete cock end on twitter claimed our support was going into the season "divided", presumably on the strength of someone or other being vaguely positive about the season ahead. Basically coming across as he was some sort of uniquely gifted "seer", he alone only able to see that Rafa is being fucked over....others are "blinkered", maybe those who pointed out that Burnley signing Jonathan Walters from Stoke isn't actually that much to be scared of...
  21. Dekka Griff would approve was as he mates with boss eyed Mala?..
