I think fans like a common 'pantomime villain' that they can hate - think we're an obvious sideshow compared to Newcastle (for obvious reasons - they really don't like each other). I always thought it would be kind of funny if two sets of fans who detested each other were mixed up in a pub...

Eleventeenth

That break by Kelly at the end - if he'd have rolled it sideways, it was a gimme for McNulty (although Kelly did really well when he came on, to be fair)

No - that was Willie Carr

Except SkyBlueRev, I worry that the number crunchers who control the club finances may well stick a hefty portion of that against a line in the accounts that doesn't aid player purchases. The pessimist in me.

Has Furlong been let go as well ? GGrrrrr - SISU out

Never liked Gary Newbond either, even if I did win a Newcastle Brown cigarette lighter off him for answering a quiz question about 40 years ago !

Is this because you were being stalked at being so popular (it's not me by the way), and you've tried to divert their attention, or have you sold them to G for a small part of his vast wealth?

Thanks - in that case, I'll bring something for my head and shoulders

Snowing, or 'snowing' - a light dusting, a few flakes, or 'Winter is coming' - your answer could affect my snood decision?

Otis - just noticed - have you received so many likes, the counter reverted to zero at some point - has Nick fined you a few thousand 'likes' for a personal comment about him - what happened ? (I lost 800+ during the switchover to the new layout - not bitter - but this is a more recent event...

Bit unwise raising the subject Otis - what were you and your unfeasibly beautiful Russian bride doing in Zizzi's the other week?

Apparently the same people built Fisher's luxury mansion 'Timmy Towers'

You'd have a spare ticket for Argentina v Brazil, or England v Scotland, even if they were World Cup finals (don't laugh at the last example!)

50/50 whether my snood makes a visit to Crewe, or I just man up and end up with a blue nose.

Take your point - just seemed to be the consensus that Shipley, Vincenti & Reid were all blowing on Tuesday night. I was trying to think why that may be, and come up with a solution as to how best manage this if it were the case. On a side note hope you are ok mate, you sounded a bit low re CCFC...

A shame - especially when he will probably end up like Ben Stevenson, and rarely play - that said, we can't afford to compete with the wages on offer (especially whilst trying to service a £2m a year interest payment to ARVO)

Think we (the club) got caught out with the rapidity of his success. Hardly anyone here knew him 12 months ago.

I found the bit about the annual interest amount staggering (listened to this a few days ago - wasn't it approx. £2M per year to ARVO of our total £7M income (apologise if that was inaccurate; whatever, it is clearly hampering what we can do on the pitch in terms of wages and recruitment)

If Reid and Shipley can't manage a full 90, split the difference and use the one when the other has 'blown' a gasket. That said - I think Shipley could also cover for Bayliss in the middle. I can understand Vincenti running out of gas as he hasn't played a lot lately. Reid getting back to...
