True, but the only reason you're on here is because you're fuckin jealous of those crowds. Be a good little bell end and run along to admire all your 20 zillion trophies....we don't care about you, them or your club.....and one things for sure we'll never be in our nearest and bitterest rivals shadow, or be so piss poor in comparison to them that they have to take up a rivalry with another club.

Liverpool population- 460,000 Newcastle population- 190,000 From 2001 census. Catchment area? If you take Tyne and Wear, the population in 2001 was 1,095,200 Merseyside was 1,362,026 So theres the best part of 400,000 more potential supporters in Merseyside than there is in Tyne and Wear and both have 2 Premier League clubs.....and obviously if you add together the monthly attendance figures for eachof the 4 clubs during the season you may well find that the North East footballing public has greater numbers in general than Merseyside despite the disparity between population and relative success of the 4 clubs. Liverpool are one of the worlds great football clubs due to their history but couldnt fill their ground for every game last season. Everton?...the less said the better I think

Liverpool population- 460,000 Newcastle population- 190,000 From 2001 census. what difference does that make? you still only have 1 team But Everton and Liverpool are historically far more successful clubs, which, according to some, is all that matters You should be packed out every week old son because you won the FA cup in 1995. so higher attendances matter more than trophy's won? how many points do you get for filling your ground? About as many as you get for winning the FA cup, which you used further back in the thread when you said you were awful in the 90s and yet still won more than us, which is true. By the way, do you lot still send Hans Segers christmas cards?

US Lockerbie reaction - should anyone go and explain?

Theres a school of thought that think this man wasnt guilty anyway.... Don't know if the Doctor is a sad old conspiracy theorist or not but but I think theres a lot more to this affair than meets the eye. In view of this, maybe the Senate commitee should stop being such a bunch of posturing drama queens and instead try to tell the truth about what really happened and why Gadaffi was basically implicated in the first place and then, when it was conveniant, brought in from the cold.But the US (and former UK based multi national oil corporations) may well regard something like this as inconveniant, telling the truth to bereaved relatives in the US and the UK and all that, when there are tyrants who could be fingered and money to be made on the side of it. In any case, the Scottish justice system was seemingly good enough to secure a very dodgy conviction in the first place but as soon as they make a decision (suppported by independant medical evidence that has been supplied to the Senate) that the US doesn't agree with they suddenly have to answer for it in full US public view. I don't think they are entitled to have it both ways. -

at least 5 years past his best. never had any pace, can finish still ( though last season it was all about ronaldo). would want what 100k a week wages... not worth it.... the problem with raul was that he was too slow to play with the other forwards at madrid, and every time he had the ball he kept hold of it. and then wasted it. just what you need for a team that'll struggle.... Not suggesting he would have been anywhere near up to it this time around, just mean how frustrating it must be to play for your country for so many years and then see them take the top prize at the first time of asking without you. He wasnt in the squad when they won the Euros either. Fuck all in this as Hughton said. Placed in a paper by a journo being hand fed shite from the players agent. That kid from Scunny is much more Ashley's style, regardless of his ability....or Raul's for that matter.

I could sort that out for you mate ...with her like ...although am sure you're very nice too

The way they're all stood makes them look like they're advertising "Autonomy" as some sort of gay lifestyle magazine

The Annual How's Your Other Team Doing Thread

Twat wanted him to move to the Bulls. http://www.nba.com/cavaliers/news/gilbert_letter_100708.html Cringeworthy. well its more than Mike Ashleys said to us in 3 years.... -
Is that another way of saying the industrial base in Western Europe is virtually redundant now after a near 40 year illness due to the far east being able to do things cheaper? Thousands of communites have lost their reasons to exist in that time, for an example most of us just need to look out of the window. The tories are complete cunts, but it looks like they're just putting the country out of its misery and unless you work in Asda or Tescos (are these two the only companies that make a profit?) you're frankly fucked. I think I'm going to go to Canada....who are the Newcastle United of the ice hockey league?

So is it 1 30pm or 4pm?... nufc.com says 4....polis will be chauffed as nuts....do you think Raooooul will be found by then?

Thankfully I work for one of the biggest construction firms in Europe. Never got anywhere near receivership but the CEO was given the Spanish Archer as a result. As for how we lost it.... combinbation of shite document control and a colossal fuck up in the estimating dept. I've suffered with that...I refused to ket 20 odd sparks start work one day because the drawings issued hadnt been approved...that part of the job was up and down 4 times after that. They never learn Anyway, why in the name of fuck cant this country afford to renew crumbling 20th century schools so our kids can be educated in the right enviroment?...because thats what the coalition are basically saying. Don't know if Labour wouldve cut back that much...it was truly one of their flagship policies they could point to that had benefitted people...pity Gordon had left it off the balance sheet....

Trust me, my friend that is definitely not the case. We did a PFI project in the Midlands a couple of years back and lost £50m on it. PFI does NOT guarantee profit. The smart money in PFI work is in the FM contracts that are awarded concurrently with the build job. well yeah its the FM and operational side of it I was on about...thats what PFI is all about...unless you fuck up big time in the construction side of it obviously When I worked for a major electrical/mechanical contractor we lost 750k on a data centre but becauase the facilities side of the business had the maintainance contract for the same client (apparently the planets biggest merchant bankers ) worth 84million over however many years it was quietly brushed under the table.....fuck knows how you explaned a a 50 mill loss?..I take it receivership was mentioned?..how the fuck did you survive that?
-
Isnt the bottom line in PFI just the private sector holding taxpayers to ransome?....would the large building firms have been comitted to building new schools and hospitals if they had only signed conventional contracts which didnt virtually gurantee their profits?

Nasty Cowardly bastard needs a trickle of his own medicine iyam. I reckon he'll get what's coming to him like, once one of their own what shot I cant see it ending any other way than him being turned into Swiss cheese when they eventually catch up with him. Despite it all, whatever they do will be fucking humane - should leave him with a face-full of lead shot just like he's done to the police fella. The gun squad might have a meeting and decide to try to just "wing" him....that way they can beat him to within an inch of his life then see him go through what is apparently his worse nightmare..a return to Durham nick

In the sense that his land and titles are taken away, then yes. Seeing that prick pontificate about the envirnonment whilst going everywhere in a turbo charged jag or helicopter, and not letting Poundbury residents have solar panels on their homes is very annoying. He can stick his over priced organic carrots up his arse. I would abolish the Lords, and replace it with an elected second chamber too. They can keep the fancy houses, as it will eventually ruin them all, and The National Trust or English Heritage will run them anyway. The latter being largely funded by the state anyway. I don't know anyone in Dorset who likes Charlie's personal council estate. My ex did...she runs the farm shop there. And she was keen on moving there too. And she'd met him at least 3 times, and she said he was "inspiring"....you'd get on well with her His lands and titles were nicked from those who had nicked them from others...what do you suggest?..nationalise the Isle of Skye, The Eden Centre and Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch? I suggest we give them all nice detatched houses, help them train for a proper job, and then treat them like normal people. The big palaces and castles can be handed over to the state, and the lands can be given to local councils for them to either sell off or whatever. As for your ex, was she the kind of silly person who wanted to move there because it had royal connections, and felt the need to gain 'status'? The one good thing he did do was the Prince's Trust, which has done some good charity work. Ad giving Prince William the bald gene. No she's big in "local produce providers" and shared his passion for all things organic.....it wasn't that she was impressed by him as such, she just shared his drippy hippy beleifs. And its all personal choice...you dont have to move to Poundbury or buy his Duchy original sausages...he's mainly harmless as far as I can see, just a daft old git. There used to be hundreds of thousands of forelock tugging yokels working on estates all over the country and very happy they were too. The ones that are left seem that way as well....its not really much different to working for anyone else...be polite to the big boss etc...I'd draw the line at using "your grace" or whatever they expect to be termed mind, cheeky bastards still think its the fuckin middle ages in that regard What night is your local communist party meeting then?
