    Trev! You fell into his trap.
    Now go and take your meds, sit on the step and think about your actions and how they satisfy others.

    ‘The actions that satisfy others.’

    Yep, one of my many nicknames.

    The amusing tales of you getting lost on a regular basis don't count.

    It’s commonly known as exploring new areas.

    That doesn't make a club big though does it... the big clubs have won things called trophies many more times and they're bigger brands.

    It just doesn't bother me because I know Newcastle has potential, but you need to believe Newcastle are already a big club.

    It's OK.

    Wrong. You need to believe we aren’t and that your Club is. That’s fine by me.

    Clearly not because you're trying to prove otherwise which wouldn't be necessary if you were comfortable.

    The problem you've got is the mass majority of fans in this country and abroad don't see Newcastle as a big club like Man United, Liverpool or Arsenal for example.

    I actually already said this , buy I'm simply holding a reasonable view and saying that Newcastle has potential to be a big club and folders started getting arsy.<laugh>


    England ? Not very good but will beat Slovakia.

    Let’s setup a thread. And invite the premier league board in on it. Let’s see what other fans opinions of us truly are.

    I already know mate.. visit the prem board it's less partisan and you get a much more realistic opinion on our club.

    It's not easy reading at times, but if you actually take the time to listen you begin to realise the very valid points being made.

    I’m totally comfortable but just have this habit of correcting others when they try to express their options as fact without any factual evidence to back it up.

    Quite happy for you to have your opinion, even if I believe it’s wrong, but that little old habit of mine kicks in when you try to claim your opinion as fact when it’s clearly just your opinion.

    It was a fact though? Newcastle are quite simply not a big club like Manchester United ot Liverpool or Arsenal?

    Newcastle are only the 9th most successful English club and have great potential to be become a big club now because they have money and one of the best fanbases in the country if not Europe... see I'm fair when it comes down to if mate.. I'm not wumming.

    The point is though that that is your opinion. It's not a fact no matter what you claim. Some people will agree with you and some people will agree with me. What you are professing though is not a fact.

    I'm convinced that England are going to start smashing teams now.
    The side are going to attack much better thanks to some front line changes - Gordon, Watkins and Palmer.
    Nothing will stop us.
    Ps - I've just watched the Dam Busters.

    Southgate won’t change his attitude. He will play the same starting 11 as the last game. And the exact same formation.

    He’s a top lever plodder.
