S.A.F.C. - the future

Yes, that's my wife's maiden name. True to form family marriages have followed suit with breaking alliances

 

We are moderated by a wrang un.

 

My sister (nor) researched our family history and it's definitely worth doing for those that haven't done it. Loads of interesting stuff.

 

At our peak we used to buy whole ghost chillies and grind em up to add to everything but now it’s mere scotch bonnets. I get arse burn every time

 

Mine too another t and not a.
I did a temp job once in a market research company and had to go through the Northern Ireland telephone directory and found 13 different spellings for a 2 syllable name. Not many people know that, and none of them want to know it.

 

Watch out for the Ridley's of Morpeth

 

An International c*nt of the highest order.

 

Can only speak as you find, but I think Bellamy is an absolutely top bloke. An irritant on the pitch, no doubt, but an absolute diamond off it

 

Was referring to him purely on the pitch. Wouldnt have a scooby about the bloke off it.

 

Fair enough, definitely one on the pitch! My ex girlfriend knew him. Not long before I met her at uni she'd been attacked, badly, by a bloke who wouldn't take no for an answer after a first date. She was in hospital and her parents wrote to Newcastle just asking for an autograph from him to cheer her up (she was Welsh, and a Cardiff fan, so she liked Bellamy). Next chance he got he went out of his way to visit her, he spoke to her at length about things and kept in touch as she recovered. She always told me it was one of the only things that kept her going. I've also read about the charitable foundation he set up which he's put over a million of his own money into. Didn't work out with me and her, ended pretty badly actually, but I'll always have a lot of time for him for the way he looked out for her when she needed it.

 

Cannot argue with that mate.

 

Yes, the Armstrong’s **** on my family, the treacherous traitors.
Ha ha, just realised I might have angered a mod there

 

That’s the sort of post that makes these forums worthwhile. Enlightening. Great post.

 

Actually a top human being off the field

 

Hadn’t seen this but I knew about the foundation. He’s known to be a really nice bloke but he was a right workyticket on the field. Good player though. Rapid.

 

Sounds the business

 

It's a fascinating subject, about 10 years my brother did some research into family history and genealogy. Myself, as someone who has an interest in local history, I found it really interesting, but sad. Looks like my ancestors moved to Ireland following a famine in Scotland in the late 1690s, then came to England during the mid 19th century, either for work or due to the potato famine.

 

lets hope this is the week it becomes official

 

What does? I know more about Craig Bellamy and chilli ****ing sausages than I do about this takeover.

 

I'm from Consett and we played football over at Chopwell in the sixties. World War 3 broke out when you scored a goal against them! On the pitch and on the touchline!
