Generic small time football blather thread 2015/16

An appraisal of the Lion of Gosforth from F365.... I've abused him in the past for him thinking he was bigger than the club, and I do partly stand by that, but when you see all the stats in this piece laid out, he was a fuckin phenomenal footballer.. http://www.football365.com/news/portrait-of-an-icon-alan-shearer -

Mourihno v Pep in the same city. Tasty, but I can't help thinking that neither of them suit their new clubs....you'd think Manu would want someone less of a cunt than LVG....so they appoint just about the only one bigger, and the citeh of Paul Dickov and Geoff Whitley appointing the worlds best(?) 17 years after they were in divi 3...is that more of a shock than us appointing Rafa?? -
Congratulations SEW, hope youre all well

They keep very quiet about the tosser who gobbed on SAINT Niall Quinn in front of his wife and kids outside Roker Park in 1996...tbh I didn't know until recently either but it's comes from Quinn's own mouth in this book... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Up-There-North-East-Football-Boom/dp/1909245178

Toon scout Graham Carr scours globe for talent
PaddockLad replied to Tooj's topic in Newcastle Forum
Well there you go....what do we know about the background to those deals? Who were their agents and what sort of historic relationship did NUFC and/or Carr have with them?....Doumbia by all accounts has in the past looked a good player, but who struck THAT deal with his handlers? Don't know anything about Saivet. Was he signed to replace Tiote, who didn't in the end leave, and just fucked around after? Is any of that in the job description of the man who is basically being payed to identify talent? If his role was too much for him, why the fuck wasn't the problem identified and sorted out by someone? This "board" was just a fuckin nothing when it came to addressing what was truly going wrong at the club and that all comes back to one man. -
Toon scout Graham Carr scours globe for talent
PaddockLad replied to Tooj's topic in Newcastle Forum
Had lots of arguments with mates about whether he's to blame for much of our current car crash....I think he's in credit tbh,it wasn't down to him that decent players he brought to the club like Tiote, Cisse and Sussoko have been complelty de motivated for the last two seasons or so, but it's difficult to know what actually went on with Thauvin, Cabella and Rivière, or the Saivet/Doumbia debacle...players often don't go somewhere for "playing" reasons nowadays, look at the shit Dennis Wise and his wanker mates were up to behind KK's back etc.... I bet he could write a really good book about the Ashley years at NUFC, but I expect they'll be some "silence" clause in his leaving deal...shame, strikes me as one of the few actual decent people in the public eye that Ashley has employed. -
That's a great career Think it was Stevie who mentioned the 4-2 aggregate shoeing (4-nowt first leg @ SJP) we dished out to the Feyenoord side who would win the European Cup itself 12 months later...that was probably our best result outside of the final.
-
Agree with most of this apart from the "profit" bit....to build a team to take a club managed by Rafa where he wants to go will require debt, and that's where it's all going to fall down sooner or later....
-
We might be surprised who stays if Rafa does..
-
If Rafa stays am not sure he'd give him a chance tbh, he basically said post game that this is how we can play when there's no pressure or fear, and this nondy fucker still loses the heed. Fuckin ridiculous. Those of you who have been whining about him not starting the last few games have got your answer here, Rafa didn't trust him. To be fair, leading the line in his first season in a new country, with a huge step up in quality from the Belgian league was a huge task to be entrusted to a 20 year old in the first place, a ridiculous decision by the club. On the face of it he's not the player Carroll was at the same age, nor for that matter fuckin Shola. He's got ability though, needs to grow the fuck up first though or it'll be wasted.

Anyone claiming to know we'd be definetly better off one way or the other is a blatant fuckin liar. One thing that an "out" vote will push us further towards iyam though is the break up of the U.K, so for that reason am "in" .

Can anyone remember a thread somewhere or other on here where an Aussie poster , who's name escapes me now,was located on Google Earth and some pictures of his home town were posted? Maybe 12-18 months ago? Am in rural NSW and drove through a very familiar looking place this week... Edit: think the poster was a divorcee and had childcare issues?...

Puss-y galore...

Cheers Never heard of him but what I've listened to sounds really good...and this video looks like it was shot on one of @@catmag's night shifts https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=kevin+morby&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-gb&client=safari#hl=en-gb&q=kevin+morby+i+have+been+to+the+mountain&stick=H4sIAAAAAAAAAONgFuLSz9U3qCrOLjA1VuLVT9c3NEzOyspIyzbM0xL0LS3OTHYsKsksLgnJD87PSwcATh46HjAAAAA
