You haven't seen anybody play for NUFC for years , have you Noelie, chum

 

2004. 5 games at St. James' Park.

2001. 6 games at St. James' Park.

1998. 6 games at St.James' Park.

Etc, etc, I'm in the habit of coming home every 3 years unless there's funerals and the like in between, I'm due to visit this year depending on my wife's health(she has terminal cancer)

I see most games games live on the telly or streams, very rarely miss seeing a match one way or another.

Prior to so many games on television nowadays people would send me videos that they would record for me, week later perhaps but I saw the games.(have a large library of Newcastle games on tape)

Prior to that used to listen to the commentaries on short-wave radio.

I have an expenive TV-VCR combo that plays PAL, NTSC, and Secam tapes. Yours are PAL if you didn't know, here they're NTSC.

 

 

 

Strange how all the people who don't see games think they know as much as those that do !!! Can't think of anything stupider than that, to be honest

You are basing your stupidity on that only people who attend games in person can know more than those who don't, and you're way off base in that assumption. To watch a match on television provides you with more insight on the game. You see instant replays from different angles, you see up-close action that a spectator would only see from a distance, your view is never blocked by people jumping up. A television viewer sees many more details of the match than someone at the park in a crowd.

However there is no question that television does not, and cannot, provide the atmosphere which is so important to the enjoyment.

 

I said elsewhere "in 40 years". I'm sure you know nowt really about the last 40 years, unless you can show that you do, rather than avoid responding. Bet your blushing and farting in embarrassment now, claiming to be a "supporter"

I think my response above indicates that I have not avoided anything, that I have seen a lot of home & away games either on television, by streams, by video recordings, and in person, during the past "40 years".

I think that following the team on short-wave radio when it was the only way would indicate a degree of support.

I don't think you have the intelligence to understand that support can come from a distance, and distance does not always diminish support.

 

its getting a bit tiring seeing you arguing with someone who is obviously a genuine supporter of Newcastle and seeing you admit you have nowhere near the same level of suppport as he does. What a wanker. There is also not so many people as you seem to think that are backing you up when you say you know what you are talking about

And when did you start collecting ? 40 years ago LOL .... BTW, I have a large collection of my own edited games too, going back to when home video recordings started ... I watch them later after being to the game on top of that ..... and I'm in the processs of transferring them to DVD.

bullshit. The usual excuse from the armchair supporter brigade.

Most supporters who go to games will see that you are nothing but a bullshitter.

 

Have a look at your old videos, and tell me what you think of those players from the 1960's and 1970's that I asked your opinon of LOL

I can picture Leazes giving it the Andy Gray bit with his marker pen on the screen. Tracking Bellamy's runs into the box with a trail of love hearts and rose petals.

strange how me saying that is funny, but when Noelie says it, its not, Alex. I suppose you have your [odd] reason.

 

I know I'm not telling lies though, unlike Noelie. He'll be telling us next he has watched the videos of those players in the 1960's and 1970's i asked him about, because he sure as fuck doesn't know what they were like.

 

Ho hum.

I have to agree with LM that to get a true indication of a game of football, one should be watching it inside the ground. On tv, the picture invariably revolves around where the ball is. When you're in the ground, you are watching the movement of players all over the pitch - even if the ball is at the other end of the field and because of this, one gets a truer picture of player's desire/concentration/reading of the game/etc etc. Watching on tv cannot give you this true picture.

 

However, it isn't as cut and dried as that. How so? You only have to be in a pub after the game, and the differing views on different players/incidents prove it! Being in the ground doesn't mean that you know all there is to know about the game that has just taken place - only your perception of it. That's why the majority of us wouldn't last five minutes at a football club as our knowledge just isn't up to what is really happening.

 

Finally, I too have a stack of old games on vhs which I watch from time to time and analyze Which is why I know for 100% certainty that only a small percentage (maybe 10,000 at the absolute maximum) of the crowd sang 'Souness for Sunlun' on that winters day at SJP - FACT!

I just thought that bit was funny. I haven't really been following the argument much but I did read that bit. At a glance though it looked very boring in general. And that goes for your's and Noelie's posts.

An English graduate putting an apostrophe in yours? For shame!

I typed it quickly.

Frankly I'd rather eat my own arms than re-watch some of the utter HORROR SHOWS that have been our performances of the last 4 years.

Obviously not as highly valued by his club as we first thought.

I can't see any of the rest of the top 4 after him, back to Blackburn.

[ewerk 31557]

And I forgot to mention it's clear he hasn't sorted out his problem with mouthing off to the media.

[Fop 1]

He is Craig Bellamy, it's daft to expect otherwise.

 

He's got the stature of a deformed hobbit but the ego of a battalion of soldiers, pretty much anywhere he goes he'll cause trouble and blame anyone but himself for it.

Portsmouth 2, Liverpool 1Apr 29 2007

 

By Sunday Sun

 

Sunderland were among a host of clubs put on red alert last night after Craig Bellamy vowed to quit Liverpool this summer.

Bellamy revealed before the Reds' defeat at Portsmouth that he wants out of Anfield because he has no relationship with manager Rafa Benitez.

 

The Welsh striker - linked with promotion chasing Sunderland - made his shock admission in a conversation with BBC Wales reporter Malcolm Allen.

 

"He said it's been a very disappointing year . . . he hasn't got a working relationship with Benitez - they hardly speak to each other," said Allen.

 

Meanwhile, Benitez offered no apologies for fielding a weakened side ahead of their Champions League semi-final second leg against Chelsea.

Pompey's Benjani Mwaruwari and Niko Kranjcar grabbed first-half goals, before Sami Hyppia's consolation.

 

As if he wasn't hated enough already...

[Gejon 2]

Sunderland are linked to everyone these days! Bellamy and Keane would probably finish worse than Bellamy and Souness I reckon

Actually I'd pay to watch that fall out.
