Christmas Tree

You and your lass make a nice couple tbf, I dont see why people should find that funny

The positive side of this for me is that the "debt" is Ashleys and not various loans etc. I think we are more secure owing the money to him than the banks. The big danger on the horizon is that a Barry Moat comes along and takes on some of that Debt. While some of the figures being bandied around seem large, in reality they are chicken feed to Ashley and will become even more insignifigant as his empire strikes back after the recession.

Ironic, eh? No. hahahaha..................its great reading them posts from last july......most people thought we would be shit...........apart from acca who was spot on.....i bet you people feel fools right now ..... spot on

its done and dusted...............5 wins and couple of draws puts us on enough points.........easy fucking peasy are you, accadacca and Xmas Tree the same person No, we are just not stuck in the past!

How old are you?? 16?? Thought it was time to have a little bumpy so the guilty pessimistics amongst you can see the error of your ways. Well called Mr A This league is anything but a piece of piss. Interestingly however, if you look at that post, hes only really right on us walking the league (so far)..... 3 of those named dont get a game, while all but one arent good enough for next season. Guthrie is borderline and could be a squad player imho. Amazingly, we score 6 and our "main striker" doesnt get a look in, Im not even sure he had a shot yesterday. Carroll is finished at this club once he goes down. As for Stroller, well history will tell his story. Nuff said. Just as the opposition are so poor they're letting us walk the league, so are they making our players look to be world beaters when in reality, none of them will have the top 6 banging down our door. We are going to be promoted but then the fun is over. Fuck off sour grape man

Ashley will put us in a far stronger position than we were under the last year of Shepherd

Made a bit of a fist of that prediction

yer forgetting boro's youth team which is FUCKIN' MINT!!! Honestly see them doing better than us!! +1 With their local lads, up-and-coming youth team players, stable and sensible owner & manager they are in far better position than us. Bumpity bump

Wonder if come the possible promotion match whether Ashley will lay on the free scarfes, cow horns etc to try and get a decent party atmosphere going. Personally I think the atmosphere has been shit for longer than I care to remember. I have had season tickets in level 7 family and Bar 1892 and really little difference in terms of noise. Family full of young uns playing on DS's and 1892 full of old men. Since giving up the season ticket I have had a bit sit elsewhere but find 1892 the right distance and height too watch the game. Always preferred to have a side view than an end view.

We'll not get into how you came across that but

Brilliant.

A 6-0 thrashing is on the cards.

Apparently we are through to the semi finals of the FA youth cup!

which half?

Is Haris back from injury yet? Is he not meant to be one of the biggest young prospects in Europe? Also what about Frank Dank??? Somebody must have been at a few reserve matches this season.

Few glimpses I've seen of him he looked worth having around the first team.

The mother of the 5 year old from Oldham taken hostage in Pakistan has made an emotional appeal....... Can someone cover his shift in the shop this weekend?

Without this turning into an a pro / against Ashley thread, has anyone been following the youth / reserves, the likes of Haris Vukic etc etc

Because the first priority after relegation was to stem the cash flowing out of the club by way of cutting the wage bill, slashing jobs and getting money into the coffers. Not pleasant but given relegation the only option.

25 Lessons passed everything first time. I have had my License for 2 years in the start of may Oops!!! Your fuckarooneed I think.

I thought they had all decided it was due to a sudden discharge of methaney stuff from the sea bed.

A massive asteroid was to blame for the demise of the dinosaur, and not a volcanic eruption, scientists have said. A panel of 41 experts from around the world said the mass extinction wiped out more than half of all species on the planet, including the dinosaurs and some large marine reptiles. The concluded the impact, that happened around 65 million years ago, cleared the way for mammals to become Earth's dominant species. The 15-kilometre wide asteroid is believed to have hit the planet with a force one billion times more powerful than the atomic bomb at Hiroshima. It resulted in the crater known as the Chicxulub crater buried underneath the Yucatan Peninsula. The asteroid - about the size of the Isle of Wight - would have blasted material at high speed into the atmosphere. That set off a chain of events that caused a global winter, wiping out much of life on Earth in a matter of days, the review says. Scientists had previously argued about whether the so-called Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT)extinction was caused by the asteroid or by volcanic activity in India over 1.5 million years. For the new study, scientists analysed 20 years of work by palaeontologists, geochemists, climate modellers, geophysicists and sedimentologists. They concluded that geological records show the event that triggered the extinction destroyed marine and land ecosystems rapidly, meaning an asteroid impact was the only plausible explanation. Dr Joanna Morgan, co-author of the review from Imperial College London, said: "We now have great confidence that an asteroid was the cause of the KT extinction. "This shrouded the planet in darkness and caused a global winter, killing off many species that couldn't adapt to this hellish environment." Co-author Dr Gareth Collins, also from Imperial College, added: "The explosion of hot rock and gas would have looked like a huge ball of fire on the horizon, grilling any living creature in the immediate vicinity that couldn't find shelter. "Ironically, while this hellish day signalled the end of the 160-million-year reign of the dinosaurs, it turned out to be a great day for mammals, who had lived in the shadow of the dinosaurs prior to this event. "The KT extinction was a pivotal moment in Earth's history, which ultimately paved the way for humans to become the dominant species on Earth."
