It would be difficult to argue against the points you make and pointless given some of our league performances this season and current position, as you say the table does not lie. But disagree on what Howe has achieved since being appointed. He has been a revelation. I still have faith in him. Getting on the manager merri-go-round would be a backward step IMO.

The sliver lining of today's cloud at St. James', young Will Osula is looking like he may just be a proper centre forward. Great to see a young lad giving his all when given the chance. Downside, apart from the result, his goal could easily have been chalked off for offside and the current clinical interpretation of the offside rule is killing proper forward play.

In the current economical climate it would be irresponsible not to?

They are doing rather well the present manager, c**ts!

Wow, you reckon if we if we keep faith in Eddie Howe we are guaranteed another 5 years in the EPL? That's a bold claim, even I do not have that much faith in him.

Feck off and eat your cheesy chips

Gnasher, there have been rumours of Mourinho coming to Newcastle for years, even before the new owners took over and when the sum of ambition at the club was just to stay in the league. Supposedly because he has a romantic notion of managing the club that was dear to the heart of his mentor Sir Bobby. Probably nonsense, I do hope so but hey, it would be a blast and an interesting for one season! But not an intelligent move for a club that say they are serious about progressing. I would not be happy with anyone replacing Eddie Howe. The criticism of Howe is mostly media driven of course

I have noted the reg on the car in the video. Should it be advertised online at 2+ times the auction price will be useful

I always see red when spotting Graham Souness' name. Liked him as a player but terrible manager at Newcastle and dismantled what Sir Bobby Robson had been building. Not Souness' fault, the blame lays with those who sacked Sir Bobby. I can see history repeating itself.

Cheers Kanny £6K? Must have issues needing sorting I would think but maybe not, I'm by no means an expert on them. One appeared today at an Alfa specialist that I have been keeping an eye on. Low millage but top money. 3 1/2 hour drive away so not been to see it yet. I'm not giving anymore details as last time I did that on here it was sold the next day Interesting/boring fact - you see the glass roof? Pro-drive specked steel roof for the 500 that they would build to keep the weight down. Alfa sent glass roofed bodies from Italy but full head liners. There was not time to correct th

We would sometimes be asked to volunteer for a "ghoster", back when many businesses, particularly banks, did not open at weekends. Electrical distribution system changes or upgrades. Power off when last member of staff left on a Friday (except security at banks) then everything needing to be done by 07:00 Monday. The plan was that those who started on Friday would work through until replaced on Saturday morning then swap again on Sunday. Did not usually work like that though. Often it would become obvious that the scope of works could not be completed working those shifts. The poor bloke

Just dawned on me, 'Brough have 1, Matt Target. Doubt he would have pulled a player back to gift a penalty

You would need to speak to those in charge at NUFC, they may be willing to loan some of our players out to Ipswich or Middlesbrough.

Sunderland (league 1 a few seasons ago) beating Spurs and keeping them in a relegation spot. At the same time increasing their league position over Newcastle (the wealthiest club in the world?). It really is a funny old game. Bollocks to it, I'm bringing forward my retirement plan of getting a few ferrets and a whippet so that I don't have to watch it anymore.

3 door, obviously. That's kind of my point, apart from all the great engineering there, they do not make affordable 3 doors anymore apart from Minis, and even those are now all automatic and without visible exhaust tail pipes apart from the JCW. Still has 1 visible, the other is hidden (?), and no longer makes a proper noise. The world has gone mad.

Always found it to be chilled with an eclectic range of patrons. If staying overnight no one ever seems to have a problem if you walk the dog after dark with a bright light for safety purposes.

Always liked an escort van, you've got me thinking now.

Would be nice. But there was a time when you did not need a big win to own a nice motor. Ford Capri, Vauxhall Calibra etc. The manufacturers and buying public are lazy and disinterested now but at least some of the old ones still exist. A friend of mine bought the below a couple of years ago.

Strange how this panned out. Pics at start of the thread were taken from an add found on the 1st online search that I did. Noticed it was from 2024 and so thought it would be long gone. It came up on another search but current 2026, but the car had done 3000 miles more. Made my mind up to get it and emailed them on a Saturday night. Noticed the add had been removed on Sunday. Got a courtesy call from them the next day saying that the car had been sold. It had been advertised for 2 years and not sold, and been driven during that period. Thinking someone at the business must have taken a shine t

Watching the PSG v Liverpool game last night it was difficult not to go all conspiracy theoryesk and come to the conclusion that someone made the decision that Liverpool will be in the CL final no matter what. If so then the ref was brilliant. Despite a poor Liverpool still managing to lose the game the ref made sure that the deficit was kept to 2 goals to give them every chance at Anfield. Even when VAR bottled it and told him to review his on-field decision with the blatant push in the back for another PSG penalty call he stuck to his guns. Must have balls of steel, or crippling debt

This made me smile when walking the old Bowes coal railway line today.
