Perhaps we should move this away from prying eyes, the Hereford board perhaps. What kind of bar has 30-something people pressing their faces against the window?
 
Down to 16 guests. :)

Carroll's gone another 90 minutes without a goal. Picked up a yellow card though, amazing what you can get for £35m these days.
 
What were guests browsing this for though? :confused:

Carroll showing his worth this season, even Torres has scored more <whistle>

So even when they've started to play well. The Smoggies dont come out and support their team <doh>

And to think, a few years ago they claimed to be the best team in North East
 
From the BBC website..

1947: NEWCASTLE 2-1 BLACKURN
Emlyn Begley reports: "Demba Ba scores a hat-trick as Newcastle continue their brilliant start to the season with another win - but Blackburn's toothless attack will be a major concern for manager Steve Kean, whose side drop into the relegation zone."

Following problems during the Arsenal and Fulham home games with persistent standing in the Strawberry Corner, we understand that around 40 season ticket holders were handed one match "bans" excluding them from this game (although they could have bought/used seats elsewhere).

In addition it's claimed that around 100 season ticket holders in the same section were issued with written warnings as to their future conduct. At least five fans were removed by stewards in the first half today.

bit ****e like
 
<laugh> Good lord, Steve Kean takes deluded to a new level. Spends his entire interview on SSN saying that the entire game was hinged on the 'wrongly given' 3rd goal and it had been very even until that point.
 
Trying to write a personal statement, I came across this..

[Since childhood, I have been fascinated by the constantly changing world that we live in, wanting to understand and explore the causes and effects of current and future human interactions. During my teenage years I started listening to the BBC World Service and reading internationally recognized journals and magazines. I have become convinced that a third level education relevant to world affairs would help me gain knowledge that would allow me to pursue a wide range of possibilities. My current career ambition is to find a suitable role within an international organisation, such as the UN, ideally with specific focus on assisting people who have been displaced due to civil unrest, war, famine or other natural disaster.

I was born in Australia to a family of political refugees who had escaped communist Czechoslovakia. After my country&#8217;s Velvet Revolution, my family returned to Prague, the capital of a then newly formed democracy. This radical change helped to widen my perspective and see the world from a different point of view. Today I am a bi-national avid traveler, having visited more than 40 countries. I have attended six exchange programmes with partner schools: one in Sweden, one in Germany and four in France. I have also been on two volunteer programmes with Earthwatch, firstly being in Spain, where we helped gather information to design marine protected areas and then in Tanzania, helping to determine the impact of forest fragmentation through monitoring rainforest bird populations. The Tanzanian expedition in particular was an eye opener, not only because of the local cultural differences and the poverty, but also because of the amount of teamwork and hardship we had to face living in a remote area like the Usambara Mountains. The experience also made me aware of how foreign countries and NGOs are helping to alleviate the poverty in Tanzania.

At school, my position as the only girl in my class has ensured that I have maintained a somewhat independent approach to my studies. I have chosen a broad range of subjects for my Final Exams, not only because I like challenges, but also because I believe I will obtain a lot of all-around knowledge and skills from them: Mathematics and Physics have helped me understand the physical and abstract world around me, while Czech and English have shown the beauty of literature, which has become a great passion for me, Herman Hesse being my favourite author. I currently represent my school in the Prague Model of the United Nations, where I am I delegate for Germany in the Third Committee.

Aside from academia, I have a passion for a number of hobbies. Ever since I first visited Egypt, as a 12 years old, I have enjoyed egyptology, with all the facts and mysteries surrounding it. I enjoy the arts in many aspects opera has a special place for me, as my mother was, in her youth one of Czechoslovakia&#8217;s most promising opera singers. I also enjoy Photography, particularly black and white. I held a small exhibition of my work in Prague last year. As a child I enjoyed ballet, and even competed in local events. Now, sports have become more important to me: while being in the Czech Quiksilver Snowboarding team, I have achieved commendable results in freestyling contests on a national level. I am looking forward to improve my technique and hope to participate in international competitions. Every Summer I spend at least one month in France perfecting my French. Apart from speaking fluent French, English, Czech and Slovak, I have been studying German at school and have also been trying to self-study Hebrew. I am a active member of Mensa, Net-Aid.org, Greenpeace and the Czech&#8211;Japanese association.

I look forward to the challenges and opportunities that studying in the UK will present. I value very greatly the chance to be a part of such a reknowned institution as your college is, and I believe that in some small way I may add to its whole, through my personality, work effort and experiences to date.
