He's a fuckin hypocrite. Trousered thousands for himself whilst emotionally blackmailing the public in general into giving the cash to him. What a complete cunt. All brushed under the table though..."legend" "institution" "good old Terry" etc etc.....

Younger posters would not beleive the fun that could be had by sitting in a pub on a Saturday afternoon with your fixed odds coupon in your mitt waiting for the ceefax page to change....Jeff Stelling fuckin ruined that simple pleasure, the monkey hanging prick

Viewed at the distance of 17 years or so I dare say you have a point about it being a bit 6th form common room. But the actual content of the lyrics is about racism,police corruption and the KKK in the southern states of the USA I doubt if Zak and Tom would write a song in that way if they were to tackle the same subject in 2009. For me, back in 1992/3 it was very refreshing to hear something with a bit of attitude instead of a steady diet of jungle/happy hardcore or dreadfull covers of 60s/70s stuff like "Please dont go". And Suede were a bit camp for my liking

Too fucking right they do. The area around the ground/St. Peters is a right shit tip. The city centre isn't much better. any tourist with half a brain would stay in Newcastle and get the Metro/train to the SoS for a match. correct...I mean how could Darren Bent and Fraser Campbell be wrong?

look at the picture of Brian in the link...and we think Gazza's got it bad! http://www.mirror.co.uk/celebs/news/2009/1...15875-21900512/

If he'd used his fuckin brain and signed for Villa he'd be going (if fit). O'Neil said last week he was gutted he didnt get him. But no Owen thought of the champions league and not the world cup (playing with Heskey every week would've helped as well) and went to a club where he was told he'd be on the bench more often than not. Silly cunt, its his own fault if he doesnt make it.

Single: too much too young by the specials...or it might have been another brick in the wall by pink floyd, who I can't listen to now Album:I remember the Police's Ghost in the Machine and AC/DC's flick of the switch, or maybe something by Adam and the Ants.. all bought from Woolies. I miss Woolies....much better than a fuckin download

Adrian Durham on talkshite: "Milton Keynes..the town that stole a football club" He's got a point like, its hard on football towns like Derby and Leicester Also Plymouth and Bristol get in due to geography, and possibly the lack of a bid from Southampton and Pompey. So will there be games at Anfield and Goodison? OT and Eastlands? which ones in London?

I think the mistake you make is assuming that x factor is largely to do with music...its chiefly to do with making Cowell, Fuller and a revenue starved ITV a ton of money. Apart from that I can't really argue with the points you make, other than Alison Clarkson wrote and recorded all her own material, and indeed produced most of her first album in her bedroom....all this after touring the US with Public Enemy with her first group,late 80s hip hoppers the She Rockers.She was hugely successful and popular and wrote, as you seem to have appreciated,great pop tunes.She also sold millions of records. Can you spot the differences between Betty Boo and Leona Lewis? I'm in no way a musical snob but Simon Cowell is stopping a 21st century Betty Boo coming through in the same way by saturating the market with a 3 month prime time tv promo campaign before the x factor single is released. He's strangling individuality and creativity at birth for a lot of pop artists, the only outlet for their talents is being lined up in front of a bunch of know nothing twats and possibly being humilated by them in front of 15 mill people on tv.Nice.

Fuck off and stop talking shit Jackson. How much did he get paid for that load of cobblers?

Doesnt fancy Cheryl Cole and insists he is straight. Well one of them is a fucking lie! Tbf what's he supposed to say? 'Yes, I do fancy the pants off my friend and mentor, who is married to a millionaire footballer. This will not make our working relationship in any way awkward'. "I'm 18, for fuck's sake. You work it out" would be a start. Well, any semblance of personality and autonomous thinking would be a start. There are millions of 18 year olds with character and the balls to say what they think and be genuinely funny, but none of them would be any good to Cowell. He wants automotons who are grateful for their ahem "break" and who will do as they are fuckin told.

Why are you helping to double the record sales of the company he works for then? You think a chart war where the public battle to buy up as many records as possible and both acts on the same label benefit from inflated sales is going to make Simon Cowell think again before starting another series....and in all liklihood generating a similar battle? fuckin hell, thats some intellectuallising going on there happy. if you dont want to buy it thats your choice. if you want to buy it, again, thats your choice. if you want to do neither etc., etc.. who cares if sony get the money. not me. it probably has been engineered that way but arent most things in life? as far as i can see this christmas no.1 is a 2 horse race. i'm choosing the song i like best. get over it!! The fuckin cheeky twat Cowell was on the radio earlier saying that those who set the facebook RATM group up were "cynical" Do you think he's familiar with the concept of irony?

That's what I say to folk who blame Tino for us losing the league that year. If Sir Les had scored in that game, we would have gone on to win the league imo. More to do with Derek Fazackerly going to Blackburn at christmas if you ask me,but as you say signing Tino was just a convenient thing for lazy hacks and pundits to spout like a bunch of lobotomised parrots for years after until it becomes the general public's perceived view on what happened.

Theres not a goverment on earth which could conceivably regulate the global economic markets, and that is precisely why we are in recession. In this country people can blame Gordon Brown until they are blue in the face but in reality theres fuck all he or anyone else could've done.

One word to describe us yesterday-complacent.Its an attitude we've been getting away with in this division, but one which was partially to blame for relegation last season. Not a lot changes really. The players know they are mostly head and shoulders above their opponenents in this division ability wise and usually do just enough to get by. So they dont mind doing this. Last season was a bit too much like hard work but being millionaires why should they care? Talk is cheap, they can say what they want in the press but for me the general attitiude is still one of indifference.Add to this the only reason many of the highest earners are still here is everyone in football knows they are chronically overpaid in relation to their ability and wouldn't bid for them if they were the last professsional footballers on earth. The only thing that has changed is the quality of the opposistion. If the teams we are playing are organised and have a better attitude to hard work than us (Blackpool,Forest,Scunthorpe) or we have "key" players out (Nolan,S Taylor,Colo) then we are found wanting. Shola it would seem is more interested in going to the ACN/WC with Nigeria,Butt is still inexplcably being picked in front of Guthrie (I really think Hughton actively dislikes Guthrie) in the centre of the park and we still have Ashley at the helm with an economic situation that makes a bid from someone or a group of individuals even at the lower end of Ashley's price spectrum distinctly unlikely. Having said all that, I am enjoying this season. But the elephant in the room is next season.Nothings really changed that much.

"Adidas ditching The Toon"? according to the MoS (well yeah I know ) they are..... http://www.express.co.uk/posts/view/145742...-Newcastle-deal

I saw some purporting to be of his missus last night when I was round a mates house (honest! ) Does she have a history in soft porn/"arty" shots of her with her clout out? I always thought she was Jesper Parnevik's nanny?

My brothers in that He was at the same college as John Davidson in the mid 80's and can be seen in the background a couple of times. Another lad from our old school features heavily.....Beebs (as in "fuck off Beebs ya fat cunt!!" ) was in the year below me.

I'll tell you when you can judge whether Gerrard is the best player in his posistion.....if and when this summer he is the outstanding player in a successful (semis?) England team. He has to be far more disciplined when playing for Cappello than when he tries to carry a piss poor Liverpool side on his own, with only Torres to give the ball to. For me england a bit Spain lite at the moment...thats how Cappello wants them to play, bit has he got a Xavi, Iniesta and Fabregas to do the job in the centre of the park? The same could be said of Lampard and Rooney, but they are surrounded by better players at their clubs. Stevie's right in a way, Gerrard sticks out like a sore thumb becuase of the (relative) mediocrity surrounding him.

Can someone explain to me how and why a club which was unsellable 2 months ago at 80 million will somehow (promotion permitting) may well be worth worth a reported 150 million in 5 months time with the same players and a major rebuilding job required? It just doesnt make any sense. In saying that now is the time for any buyer who is tempted to come in...promotion looking more than likely and they apparently wouldnt have to pay nearly twice as much as the club as they wouldve done a couple of months back....but I'm not holding my breath

To be fair Jonny, he's made a living by stealing other peoples material. Wouldn't you hold a musician or a novelist accountable for plagiarism? Why not a comedian? End of the day comedy is a business like most others and stealing a joke is the same as stealing a song. So where is all the evidence for Peter Kay being the worlds biggest gag thief? First I've heard of it. I'd say Max and Paddy wasnt as funny as Phoenix nights, but as mentioned Spikey and the other bloke weren't involved in the writing. And Spikey was the only reason to watch 8 out of 10 cats so it could be said that Kay isnt as funny without him, but it sounds as if you'd hang the bloke for the heinous crime of paying someone to write gags for him

who?

I'm in....Rage were/are great....best ever UK live music appaerance on "The Word" although in the spirit of Cid_MCP's post I'd quite like to see "pictures of starving children sell records" by Chumbabwumba ps....for good measure, here's Nirvana on The Word.......the live music and the trippy visuals was the only reason to watch that bag of shit...oh and Dani Behr...whatever happened to her? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3nCI_9uQfI&feature=fvw

What the fuck does Beckham look like? Has a ferret died on his head?
