Let's hope they make the noise of 43000 people! Love having loads in the stadium but hate when it's so quiet. It also shows how well we are supported when you look at the abject displays - just hope the players step up to the mark!

44k for years of general **** is remarkable. Apart from the "miracle", the derby wins and the LC run to the final there's not been too much to shout about. Still, there's been the "miracle", the derby wins and the LC run to the final
lots of severe weather warnings being given atm with the possibility of a shed load of snow falling over the next 48 hours -just looking at real-time online weather tracking/forecast (below) and it show a polar low off the West Coast of Scotland that could develope into major 'snow fall' for whole of the country please log in to view this image
I'm driving up tomorrow and going to Edinburgh on Sunday mate ......... should I bring my snow chains? I'll be well pissed off if the match is postponed, I've arranged loads of deliveries around the NE & Scotland to tie in with it. We were in Cornwall last weekend and there were spring lambs, snowdrops & daffodils.
I'm reliably informed that Ted Moult refused to drive one for an advert due to fear of the breaks failing in the snow. You had to have a quick ride in them before they rotted away in front of your eyes.
One Sunday morn young lambton went a fishin in the Wear He caught a fish upon his hook he thought looked very queer! I've learnt a new song just for this match
And whatna kind of fish it was young Lambton couldna tell, And he wadna fash to carry it yerm, So he hoyed it doon the well.. Ohhh..Wished lads, had ya gobs I'll tell yas all an arful story, Wished lads, had ya gobs and al telya boot the worm..
Young Lambton felt inclined to gan and fight in foreign wars He joined a troop of knights who cared for neither wounds or scars. And off he went to Palestine where queer things he befell And very soon forgot about the queer worm in the well I only really learnt the first few verses before giving myself a headache
I sang it at my son's wedding reception ........... some of the guests were Cockneys and they all had geet big goggly eyes
You have to learn the dialect as well though as it sounds totally different to the Queens English version you have written..
It is a very catchy song. The last bit I learnt was up to the goggly eyes purely because that phrase had me in stitches. Loads of people round here have geet big goggly eyes that's for sure.
True, however while I do a good Geordie accent, my Mackem is sadly lacking. It would sound like I am taking the piss ha!
It's war-m (war as in, what is it good for ...?), or warm as in blanket = worm And the word war has a hard 'ar' sound as in bar/car/far etc and scars is like 'scores' - - Young Lambton felt inclined t' gan an' fight in furrin wars* - (*wahs) I have to agree with RAW, it doesn't look right when the English is standardised and corrected.
