LeazesMag 0 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) anyway, as we went into the transfer window with the money from the sale of Andy Carroll burning a hole in the managers transfer kitty from 12 months ago, so far we have seen 7m out of 35m quid. Wonder if we will make a sale to get this 7m back ? Edited January 20, 2012 by LeazesMag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44114 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 So you've pulled me up on the one thing that's not that relevant to the point I was making, and reiterated your position to confirm the glaring inconsistency in your argument? The policeman can move on. Nothing to see here. wrong Gem mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitman 2204 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 I disagree Dr Gloom. Leazes is perfectly entitled to his opinions, tedious or not, same as you and I are. I've been on here and N-O since about 2006 and Leazes/NE5 has been consistent in his views throughout that time and has argued at nauseam with all comers. Unless you're new to TT or N-O, there can't be anything that you don't know about his views or his approach to argument. And yet time after time people will try to "win the argument" or pull him down. Which they basically won't be able to do, and it just perpetuates the whole thing. So to me the choice is simple. If you're sick of his views, then don't engage in debate with him. Or PM the people who constantly troll him and ask them to stop doing it. I doubt there'll be much of a debate over Shepherd if no-one's arguing about it. I don't blame him for responding directly to people trying to call him on things, that's his prerogative imo. The truth is some people enjoy having an argument and Leazes is an obvious target. Banning should be reserved for the truly offensive not somebody you disagree with or find annoying. imo the main thing that needs to be sorted is the quote pyramids - quoting one or two posts is all that is necessary and I'd be in favour of limiting the qupote function for everyone.

He's not a target man. He goes hunting for it every day and it's boring as fuck. I've got him on ignore and there's still no escape from it. I try my best not to respond but it's impossible when you see him quoted in every fucking thread. I agree he's done nowt deserving of a ban so far but there's always hope.

Kitman 2204 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 Titman! Where've you been? Whey hey! Had a month off work to enjoy the summer, Gem. So been surfing, golfing, bit of trekking in the bush, lounging on beaches ogling women in a way inappropriate for my age, and so on. Did some touristy stuff too so went to South Island, visited a few vineyards in Blenheim, did some whale/dolphin watching in Kaikoura, and then went to Queenstown and did some sightseeing, jetboating etc. I've checked in here occasionally but been too busy to post. We had family over too over xmas so a lot of eating and drinking. Oh and CT - I haven't put a single pound on over xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandman02uk 0 Posted January 20, 2012 Share Posted January 20, 2012 (edited) Boring factual though. Really? Show everyone the evidence that Mike Ashley has POCKETED the money of course he has, Mike Ashley IS newcastle united football club, he owns the lot, so any profits are his, any loss are his, its the main difference between the previous board and this one, shepard was able to gamble, lose, put the club into huge amounts of debt and sit happy, while slimmed down Mike, any loss, he feels it, any profit keeps him in champagne and cheap hookers Edited January 20, 2012 by sandman02uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
