Well Im booked onto the 6.45am to Heathrow tomorrow, all was looking good until I checked out todays flights. 6.45 delayed until 12.20! 9.10 Heathrow flight - cancelled. I could have booked onto the 20.10 tonight and stayed over in Heathrow however theres no guarantee that wouldnt be affected either. Its still a bit of a mess like.

That would be boring I mean shes what? 26? 27? I was bored the other day and hunting through the comedy on Channel 4s On Demand found something called "Plus One" so we gave it a go and ended up watching all 5 episodes off the bounce. Very funny. http://www.channel4.com/programmes/plus-one

well either its not showing everything or the Easyjet flight that took off 10 mins ago from Newcastle has ditched off Tynemouth

+ Simples really

Now theres a contradiction, does nobody ever reread what theyve written?

what happened to the "knowledge" like?

Confidence is a major factor, let's see how confident Williamson is when the likes of Rooney is bearing down on him before making comparisons. As we've seen, there's a gulf between the Championship and big boys.

BNP and UKIP would bankrupt the country within a month of getting in. Lib Dem looks like the only viable alternative

Aye the team! Looks like theyre getting a coach down

but if you press on the other one hard enough it pops back out so fuk you. Vinegar Tits that invade your mind everytime you get to the vinegar strokes Fucking hell, two images to put me off my tea, soccermoms vinegar tits and a dwarf reaching the vinegar strokes

I had to rearrange the visit I was supposed to do on Thursday for next Friday (fuck I hate travelling on a Friday!), trouble is this is now looking like it could be another couple of days, once it restarts does anyone know if all flights due after that will be put back to clear a backlog or will it be a case of existing flights go first? ie my flight is 6.45 on Friday am. If they reopen the flights on Thursday is it likely that mine will go on time?

The opposite of most people, generally the case though

cat nonce? wtf is a cat nonce?

Now extended to 7pm tonight.

At the end of the day, theyve all got curly hair and 'taches..... and thats just the lasses.

Should definitely be aiming to win every match that is played, that's for certain (tough for clubs with managers like Sam Allardyce!) but to over romanticise it all and harbour a realistic aim to win the league is delusional in the current climate. I dont think it is though, but before anyone starts slating me as delusional I dont for one second believe we can or will do it or that we as fans should be shouting that we're going to even though as a delusional Geordie its what I should do. What Im saying is that every single club in every single league should be aiming, as sammy said above, for the top. It happens in every other business, do you think that the local family run supermarket doesnt dream of making it as big as Marks and Spencers? Their dream, their hope is that one day they'll have a string of shops around the globe. Theres nothing to say they wont do it just because they dont have the resources M&S do, with a lot of hard work and good business brains then they can do it. We have this belief that the only way to get that dream is to put ourselves into considerable debt, who says this is the case? My point is, once you know that you cant take that route, then you find another. What you dont do is accept mediocrity and decide that your place is at the bottom of the pile, as we seem to be doing here. I keep banging on about this but our problem as a football club is ultimately NOT on the pitch, our problems are behind the scenes, in the space of a couple of years we've gone from a major global brand to a second string outfit and we dont look like we have any plan for achieving that again. Yes, our wages to income ratio was too high so we've reduced that but what else? nothing, we've done nothing to increase the turnover instead we'e being asked to accept mediocrity with the view that "theres nothing we can do about it, the big boys have the money and we cant compete". How do we think Birmingham are competing? whatever it is, its working because theyve managed to get a 12 year old in Newcastle to buy their shirt, they're obviously doing something right and we should be looking to do the same. Instead however we appear to be saying "we have £xm income, £ym outgoings and thats it, we need to survive on that so we'll look to finish 17th". Raise that income, do things that will actually promote NUFC as an investable company, as a place businesses will want to be associated with. Promote the brand world wide with whats going on on the pitch and get kids in Birmingham wearing our strips again not the other way round. Get their money in and use that money to buy better players. Strive to get in the upper echelons of the league and hopefully a Europe spot then see where that will take you. If we were looking to do that and then failed at least I, as a fan would be happy we tried. Accept mediocrity though and maybe we'll stay up, more than likely though we'll drop like a stone. We should not be complacent about relegation, ok so we did it last year and bounced straight back up with 43k attendances, do it next season and I'll gurantee it wont be so easy again, the fanbase will not accept us being a yo-yo club. Last year can be seen as a blip but only if its a one off, drop next season and we're screwed. No fans tied in on 3 year contracts, a lot less willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

the only two I know are the Noble Comb and the Weatherspoons on the corner of the market.

There's no point in having any parties other than the Conservatives and Labour then. Would you honestly trust a Lib Dem goverment to be able to fulfil their pledges? hmmm you might be asking the wrong fella there like

Could be worse, you could have to spend time in Shipley, now thats a shithole.

A bit like UKIP yesterday.... "we'll abolish National Insurance and reduce Income Tax". Oh and grant three wishes to everyone.

How far we have fallen has just been proven to me in the last 5 minutes. a group of 8 young lads, no more than 12 or 13 years old have wandered past my house from the local field, football in hand, all of them wearing football strips and not a single one was a Toon top. Not one out of 8 local kids, the future of this football club wore its colours. I saw Man U x 3, Chelsea x 2, Argentina, Everton and even a Birmingham strip but no black n white or even yellow. How can we ever expect to raise the bar if the future support of the club is non-existant? if we dont get the 13 year olds supporting us then we'll never get them at any stage. Yes they may attend a few games because they fancy watching a game or more likely, because they get to see their team play us but they're not going to pump the money in, they're not going to go to away games, buy the shirt, duvet or commemorative "we got a draw against Stoke" dvd. In turn, their kids wont even contemplate supporting the Toon because their fathers wont even attempt to get them interested like some of these kids dads no doubt have. Worrying.

Just been on Sky News that all of the UK and most of north European airspaces are closed. The exception, Iceland, nae hassle at all, no problems all is fine.
