  1. Tim Sparv scored against us a couple of weeks ago....should we sign him too?
  2. At the point that he was sacked he was turning things around and we really don't know where we would be now if he stayed. We can argue the toss all day long but it doesn't make the slightest bit of difference because it is all moot. You could argue that we might have been better off to keep Pardew all these years. He did his job which was to get us promoted but things have moved on so lets be thankful for his time with us and move on.
  3. trouble
  4. wife
  5. The bloke was a striker who could score goals at International level. For £3m is was hardly a cock up in the Osvaldo mode but clearly, with hindsight, it wasn't a good purchase.
  6. Are you saying that Ron is the Dutch equivalent of 'Arry?
  7. award
  8. Not from me you wont. He still looked poor in the recent U21 game against Boro. He just looks like a bloke who has turned up to watch and has been put in goal as the keeper didn't turn up.
  9. United 1-0. Clyne gives away free kick and gets booked and United score.
  10. Death of New Labour maybe? I am not a Labour supporter but I do believe that the position parties should be strong. Sadly (for me) the LibDems seem shot but maybe now we shall at last see some real alternative policies and a more robust opposition. I for one are sick of everyone fighting over the middle ground.
  11. Morgan on the bench.
  12. This will certainly liven things up a bit at Westminster!
  13. Are we really paying him £65k a week? Find that very odd when apparently Morgan was offered £60k a week to stay. One of these figure must be wrong and I really hope it is the first one.
  14. What a mess indeed. 2015 and yet many still behave like savages. You have to despair for human kind.
  15. Two groups of extremist factions full of religious zealots. I'd say there was a comparison there.
  16. I watched a recent under 21 game against Boro and he was very shakey. As someone else said he needs game time and should be loaned out to get more experience.
  17. Harsh but fair.......and funny!
  18. We had the tickets in our passports but the guy didn't look at the tickets, just the passports.
  19. greengage
  20. Didn't see that coming.
  21. I see from the Mirror that al Qaeda have "declared war" on IS! These people who are so hell bent on seeing the West fall, how are they going to manage it if they cant even get on with each other? Perhaps we should do what Churchill did with Stalin and join forces with al Qaeda against IS?
  22. I always look out for Manure's results as I like to see them lose, but other than that I don't see the point in "hating" another club. Liverpool are in vogue at the moment because they have taken a number of players from us, but I remember following them in Europe in their peak hoping they would win, as I did with Celtic in 1967. Never enjoyed any of Manure's success but that had more to do with not liking Fergie much - never hated the auld fella though. Still, it all boils down to basic tribalism.
  23. Well said Ohio. As for the American "culture" aren't the cultures of all countries an amalgam of many difference influences built up over the years?
  24. That is a horrific list. A few years ago I had a girlfriend who lived in Seattle. I took her kids to school one day and was amazed to see a sign over the main door saying no guns beyond this point. It is just wrong on so many levels.
  25. Yep, went a few weeks ago. I am pretty sure the tickets were scanned and we just showed our passports to the people on border control.
