It was midnight and there were genuinely people going clubbing in tracksuits and trainers Expand Did all of the locals not stare at you the whole time? The last time I was forced to go there that was how I found it. All of the semi intelligent mackems go out in Newcastle so it really is the dregs of the gene pool that go out there.

Watch a film, have a few drinks and get a takeaway, as you do. I think we only went for a drink local with them the once and it was quite intimidating even though we left well before closing time. But you used to get a funny look for not being local even venturing to the shop for some cans or whatever.

Ironic that his name is Storey btw, if indeed that is his real name. I expect that any due diligence on Storey’s bid, if indeed there is one, would end when Donald’s solicitors find him sleeping in his car outside the ground. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
