The scorers were Hottiger and Clark for Newcastle, and Sutton for Blackburn.

Well I don't know anything, after all I am just an ignorant, dirty,
*** Sunderland fan.

What happened to him? He looked worse than Tony Daley and seemed to have
even less talent (if that is possible). Please please please beat the
Spuzz so's we can draw you in the 5th round, and show you lot, rain or
no rain, that you're well and truly out of it. It is a sorry state of
affairs when us Geordies can't even have the pleasure of being there to
see the Toon stuff a few goals past Terny Nerman or whoever yev gorrin
goal at the mo.

Oh and while were on the subject, all them "let's have a split in RSS"
can***off to rec.sports.soccer or alt.sports.soccer or whatever it's
called including that w**ker who calls himself Demi Sex God from hell or
some such shite.

The big 2.5 should really be the big 4 in the NE, as the smog monsters
count as 2 since most of them have at least 2 heads. Seen any more of
Phil "speller" Hinson, the mackem/notts forest supporter recently?? He's
been remarkably quiet.

BTW, how about rec.sport.soccer.irrelevant for the mackem/forest type
debate that was voted the most irrelevant thread on RSS recently? I'm
all in favour of anything that gets us away from "Name the fifty best
dressed left footed ginger pubed strikers of all time" brigade and
constant "why is a football round" type questions from .edu addresses.
Oh yes and the "come on now this sort of language is really quite out of
order" net police bastads.

Erm...I think *I* was responsible for the ***-stinking adjective. Truth
is, for as long as I've known what Sunderland (spit) means to Newcastle, I've
prefaced every reference with that double-barrelled blast. No offence, dave, old boy!

Having trouble with the editor here (apolsfor small 'd' in Dave). I actually
believe that I was instrumnental in starting that historically irrelevant
thread about mackems/forest. I'm sure I was the first to make the accusation
of a link. I want recognition for my acheivements! I know I'm a sad bastad
anorak, but I want my fif*** minutes - and I want it NOW!

Season's gone a bit sour (muse muse). We sell Handy Andy for a few mill, we
somehow cling to 4th spot in the league, we go out the fizzy drinks cup
at home, and now it's lunchtime in January and I'm bored...

Can we start the mackem/forest thread again, please?

Toon on!

I know this isn't strictly related to the Mackem/Forest debate thingy,
but I find it grossly offensive that people post all these long,
reasoned and ultimately very boring articles about splitting the group.
I mean, how could you get such  cultural diversity in one place if you
split the group. I know it gets boring when the Mankers and their
detractors get going, but football isn't about reason or rational
thought anyway, so why try to make it so??

Off me soapbox now, I'm looking forward to Saturday as I've got a ticket
for the game against Swansea, and no matter how many ex-Makems are in
the Swansea team (or perhaps because they're in the team) I've got a
good feeling about this one. What sayeth the Soothsayer, Tom? Or are you
such a great big spangly handbag that you only post your predictions on
the NUFC mailing list??

BTW, do you remember the 1974 FA cup song before our glorious defeat by
Liverpool (for which we forgive St. Kev) by the Barry Brothers?? It was
called "Howay the Lads" and  was almost as terrible as that Chas 'n Dave
shite Spuzz had when the diminutive Argentinian was there. Lyrics please
anyone.

I still want a 5th round Newcastle-Makem tie!

Frank

I think we need some Forest fans to restart the mackem/forest thread.
So I've changed the subject line.

Yes, you were David Cavanagh way back then, and The Voice of Football was The
Voice of Football not Richard Graham Graham sending me messages saying he's
NOT the VoF when we all know he IS the VoF (and Danny Burr, and Chantelle, and
probably *me* come to that).

aOh God, the editor's gone daft again (inserting two 'Graham's!). I don't recall who exactly first tackled youngHinson on his covert mackem roots - but it
was ***y good fun for a while even if the rest of the world found it as
interesting as watching Wimbledon (have fun tonight, Toon Army) play.

Fact is, we've all got to suffer the mackems live on Sundee against the
Spuzzz. Shame they won't see it in Sun'land (as all their teles'll be
nicked by then - they're already running out of cars).

Toon on, lads!
