  1. Now Deano So I hear....did you pozzies hatch this cunning plan in an attempt to fool the rest of us into thinking theres dozens of you?
  2. he's now Deano mate Is he?! I shouldve guessed really......he's consistent, I'll give him that
  3. Tiote's Nutz hasnt been on in a while.....was it a flounce?
  4. Welcome Weldy, couldnt agree more
  5. Pen to the guineas....Vermalen booked, fuck me the Gooners sausage roll keeper has saved it!
  6. One each in Udine.....Van Persie just eqialised di Natale's opener, half and hour left...
  7. Nice gaff, but I'd imagine theres a ma-hoosive hatstand hidden somewhere
  8. Exactly. Could be argued that the team spirit is one of the things holding the club together at the moment. Removing another major part of it can only cause problems. How many leaders do we have on that pitch now? Taylor? Shola? Coloccini? You think Barton is part of what creates the good team spirit? Someone who's moaning in and around training as well on on twitter. Cant do any good for team spirit in my opinion. Let him go and lets see Marveaux and Jonas on the wings. Anyone else you wouldnt mind getting rid of while we're at it?.....especially for nowt if you can swing it?......
  9. The thing about Barton is he really does give it the "great fans" shite all the time...it is naiive to think he was going to stay after being given a "get of jail free card" by the fools at the top but he said in May when he had the rug pulled from underneath him in the negotiations that he'd stay to the end of his contract. Things have changed, but he fuckin engineered it himself if you ask me by attacking the club on twitter.Barton and his agent knew that was going to end with the club getting rid of him. He and Mckay probably thought someone would come in with a 2 or 3 mill bid for the last year of his contract. But the "businessmen" have let a transfer fee slip through their hands and given him the perfect oppurtunity to stay onside with the fans. I just don't buy it tbh. He wanted out this summer, not next after saying in public the opposite. In some ways I can't blame him at all, but its down to the player himself and his agent. Bottom line is he is needed here this season. He's highly unlikely to be replaced because we have two free transfers and a youth team graduate who may be able to fill his boots but all three have question marks about their fitness. It may all work out fine, one of Gosling, Merveux or Vukic may be step up and do brilliantly. But its just another massive gamble yet again by Ashley. And he's lost out on a transfer fee because he's been fuckin played for a fool (no surpise there) by Barton and Mckay iyam.
  10. Because Willie Mckay is a cunt....and another thing I bet Barton wouldnt buy a copy of the Sun but doesnt mind getting into bed with its more respectable younger sister Sky tv. For someone who wants to portray a thoughtful, intelligent image he's not exactly shy about this is he? He could stay, see out his last year but the utter stupidity at the top of the club has given him the right to claim 'they dont want me' which is true. Its also true that if he wanted to do well by the only people in this country who defend him in any way then he could still stay. But I guess he's been a professional footballer too long to start thinking of supporters now...
  11. I think he goes to The Gorbals for his hols but he's not technically Scottish. Worrying that we're linked with him today by the way. Yeah I saw that too...sounds like his agent is casting via the tabloids to see if anyone takes the bait.... Just one cornetto Give it to me His dad was in ice cream His names _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I got locked out of the Swindon game, was fuckin gutted for weeks after...
  12. Ex mackem oxygen theif Sulley Muntari? :-D
  13. Theyre away to Swansea at the weekend and then home to Chlesea.........is it too optimistic to suggest if they draw a blank in those two that he's fuckin toast? Just seen the goal...great header by Mackail Smith
  14. Aye, really going out on a limb there mate Theres only been 6 world cups, SA and the Aussies have won 2 each...SA have only competed in 4 due to aparthied so am going for them...the Afrikaaners have a winning mentality that NZ lack if you ask me. And the pressure NZ be under in the modern media age (87 was basically the stone age when it comes to coverage) in their own back yard will be huge and they'll bottle it (again!) iyam.
  15. My err "cousin"* Chris is playing in his 4th world cup for Scotland. Ner ner ner ner ner * Well, I say cousin....we have a mutual ancestor from sometime around 1900
  16. when are England due to meet France?...not in the group stages..... So you're saying England will get through this group?....theyre still woefully inconsistent, even the 3-times-beaten-in-the-warm-ups Ireland could beat them ona good day, despite half the Irish team drawing a pension nowadays
  17. Growing up...obviously these fuckers have never heard of Berwick Rangers... 43.89 miles SCP Hibernian Football Club EH7 5QG 0844 844 1875 44.69 miles SCP Heart Of Midlothian Football Club EH11 2NL 0871 663 1874 47.54 miles PR Newcastle United Football Club NE1 4ST 0844 372 1892 Nowadays its Afc Bournemouth.. its sadly 367 miles to SJP :-(
  18. Are you for real Dougie Bimson pmsl They also describe Sheffield as being the most passionate football city in the country. Well yeah I'd disagree with parts of what theyve written myself,but they did research their books by talking to those who were there at the time. And Eddie did run with the main Chelsea mob in the early 80s. You're basing your opinion on this on what youve found yourself about Arsenals support and thats all their books are, a fans view. And we all come at these things with different experiances,angles and predjudices. So I think what they say is as valid as anyone else, especially as neither me or you are likely to have first hand knowledge of the London hooligan scene back then.
  19. Couple of things I've read over the years regarding this...Dougie and Eddie Brimson's book 'Capital Punishment' states that although back in the 80s Arsenal certainly had a hooligan following, it comparatively very small compared with the likes of West Ham, Millwall,Chelsea and Spurs. Phil King's novel 'The Football Factory' says that what firm they did have was mostly black kids from Finsbury Park and Hackney. Thats the opinion of those writers obviously but it may give a flavour of the clubs following back then. Arsenal also had 3 cracking black players in the mid to late 80s in Paul Davis, David Rocastle and Michael Thomas. We had Tony Cunningham. Go figure ;-)
  20. Apparently AP was sat with EP's agent at the match. Im sure he was trying to do a deal. Sturridge on loan still looks possible. Pardew doesnt do the deals, he's the coach. Llambias does the deals and Ashley says yes or no to the money being spent. Pardew said this the other day, its in the "Pardew: Our transfer policy is NO different to Man Uniteds" thread. And being fair to Pardew that is pretty standard practice at a lot of clubs. Its also a refreshing change to see Pardew actually looking at a prospective signing instead of being told by Llambias "heres one that Graham has looked at, it'll be a good deal, he's on a free" But I still dont think we'll sign him. I still think we'll get Iain Harte (or similar) on loan at 4pm on the 31st of August If Sturridge wants first team football I think he is probably setting his sights a bit higher than us at the moment.
  21. His minute by minute derby day review is canny - http://www.nufcthreatlevel.com/ Very good that....That lads on Twitter?...still not tempted to sign on to it, theres all the slavering window lickers on here that I can handle I think
  22. My mackem tormentor in chief from last week has just shame-faced admitted that they are indeed still nowt more than lower midtable shite despite the millions spent this summer...he also said that theyve only won 2 from the last 19 games! Doubtfires out of a job in two games if this continues...dont know if the stat is right or not or who they play next, the inbred cunt wasnt hanging about for a wider debate :-D
  23. Nowts really changed despite saturdays good result and a draw last weekend....some very perceptive character on here said after Best's hatrick v west ham last season that we may all regret him doing so well in that game which was funnily enough in the january transfer window... ps...according to Simon Bird Pardew was at the PSV game yesterday...at least he's getting a good look at Pieters before he signs for a club who offers a million more than we do.
  24. 23 is also the number of Shola Amoebi - coincidence? I think not. That is indeed a sign that Shola is all seeing and omnipitant.....a new god for the 21st century...we should exhalt him pity he tried to header that chance in the first half yesterday, the great usless long legged shiteheap
  25. Great scenes at the end yesterday, all the players and coaching staff came out to celebrate on the pitch with the fans. All the players threw their shirts into the crowd, which is a bit corny but who can blame them?..wins like that may be the summit of the likes of Shola and Ryan Taylor's careers. Didn't see Harper with the rest of the squad on the pitch, but I could be wrong. He may have been feeling a bit left out, poor fucker. They twatted us first half really but with 11 players on the pitch when it shouldve been 10. Webb got all the big decisons wrong yesterday. Cattatwatt and Bardsley shouldve been straight reds. From todays Observer: 23: the number of clean sheets Sunderland have failed to keep in their last 23 meetings with Newcastle in all competitions 14: Sunderland have won just one of their last 14 premier league games against their derby rivals 10: The big-spending black cats have signed 10 players this summer for a total of £30 million while Newcastle have recruited five for the sum of £7.5 million.
