Would that not be a English Referendum by default!

Its a fixture list against premier league teams - has to be a great thing regardless of the running order.:1980_boogie_down:

Doesn't fit the FA yes man mould, therefore its as close as he'll ever get to managing England.

Make sense... I'm sure I read they were to put on loads of extra metro trains. Incidentally, does anyone know if its easy to get parked and ok to leave your car at Fellgate and get the metro to SoL. I've thought of doing it a few times, but never tried it.

Born 5:01pm - Sat 26th August 1978 .... We lost 2-0 to Brighton.. My father has never lived it down, he apparently left my mum in Labor to find out the footy results and by the time he got back I'd arrived :-)

My gutt feeling would have been a similar %, but given the speed I managed to get away after the game I think the percentage might be lower. The back route away from the ground to the Tyne Tunnel was very quiet. We left at the final whistle and within 20 mins I was through the tunnel!!! Normally...

Doing the Great North Run this year (and potentially London Marathon next year). Did the GNR run 4 years ago and managed to drag my arse round in 2 hrs and 57 secs!!! Had targeted to go below 2 hrs, so I feel it owes me. The only snag is that I'm currently 2.5 stone heavier than when I last ran...

Tickets arrived today too. South Stand block U38 row 18. First time in South Stand for 10 years!

Would like us to win as many games as we lose. If we achieve that we should be comfortable mid-table.

Often looked tired to me in his earlier games and I think his fitness/sharpness improved as the weeks went on, hence his top performances at the end of season. With a full pre-season, I think he'll physically fitter player than this season, which will add to his all round game and ensure he...

I'm presuming next weeks squad is the usual provisional squad. If so, I've got a sneaky feeling Defoe might get in next weeks squad. Will ensure the FA get sell out for the friendly at SoL. He'll get 20 mins in the 2nd half and then be dropped from the final squad. Anyone going to Euro's warm...

Sheff Wed for me a good club that's been away from the top tier for too long.

Excellent read. Here's hoping he can inspire Ellis as much as he can the players.

I think that must the first time I've seen Look North in 18 years - what happened to Mike Neville?

I remember signing Thomas Hauser...... We'd signed a German Striker excited was an understatement..... he must be awesome he was German.... not quite the case, but liked him anyway.
