  1. Hope you see a shot on target in the 90 mins tomorrow anyway!
  2. Don't understand anyone who doesn't approve of the owners and who wants new ownership (of which I assume you're one) being opposed to the boycott. If there's anyone left who either thinks they are decent owners or that no-one would ever buy us (and there certainly seem to be a few on that other site) then fair enough I can understand it.
  3. Think it was having lunch in the Wilpshire Hotel but near enough!
  4. Agree completely. I groan inwardly whenever I read something like "versatile forward who can play anywhere across the front line" or "can play at RB or midfield" etc. Seems to be viewed as the no. 1 priority by most Head Coaches these days. I see it as "Jack of all trades, master of none".
  5. Not impossible. However if he only had, I dont know, an 18 month deal, if he made an instant impact then we'd be in a position where he wouldnt sign a new deal and we'd lose him for buttons.
  6. Glasner to leave Palace is a bit of a bombshell - and rumoured to be linked to a move to the Red Scum as well. Could that also have the way for Adam Wharton to move there? Tbh Id rather he moved to any other Club in the World apart from our 6 fingered neighbours!
  7. I've no idea whatsoever if this lad will be any good or not but tbf we need a contract of that length to cash in if he's ever sold.
  8. Fair comment. However, not everyone is glued to social media all day and a few years ago I seem to remember the local paper in Newcastle getting extremely militant in an attempt to oust Ashley. Hard to imagine the LT ever taking such a stance AND they've had one of their journalists banned for absolutely no reason!
  9. I appreciate that but it doesn't mean I have to like the output. 🙂 Strangely enough the LT comments mob (assuming a few are genuine) seem to dislike his output in equal measure because they view him as extremely anti the Club! It takes all sorts I suppose.
  10. What he says on his podcast and what he says in "print" seem to be 2 wildly different things. I can't respect that even if he does have to put food on the table etc etc. But then he isnt a supporter of the Club like us so I suppose it doesn't matter in the slightest to him. What we need at the moment is a Peter White ripping the ownership and the management to shreds not a tame local rag telling the Club how brilliant they are. It would make the job of the Coalition so much easier.
  11. Ive not done too badly then, considering.
  12. Did you read the pieces he put out yesterday about Hedges and new contracts?
  13. Im the same with certain games from the 70's. Ask me what I was doing this time last week and I havent a clue!
  14. Just a lap dog putting out PR pieces for the Club - and they go and ban him!. I do feel really sorry for him about that, and can't understand why - they couldnt have wished for a tamer more compliant local journo. Compare that with the likes of a proper journalist, Peter White. His piece unearthed by Gav on the nostalgia thread about the 1977 FA Cup tie against first division Derby County (who were a Division above us at the time) opened something like: "The main disappointment about the game was that Rovers failed to do themselves justice". Proper journalism telling it how it is and pulling no punches. We havent seen anything like that from the LT probably since John Williams' time as he was extremely sensitive about the PR coming out of the Club and anything written about the Club. Andy Cryer (I think) did briefly peek his nose above the parapet about Kean and didnt last long.
  15. Brilliant. Hope you're enjoying it for a good few years yet. My Aunt is 99 today and apart from her short term memory being shot at she's in remarkably good fettle for her age.
  16. I can't remember exactly what it was about the 3 stooges interview that struck me but it definitely didnt come over as "The Club is not for sale" like it had done previously. Also I can't remember the exact quote but I'm sure Pasha said something along the lines of "Every Club is for sale" (at the right price) during one of the recent Fans Forums.
  17. Roughly translates as: "I can't be bothered doing the legwork to unearth any genuine scoops of my own and haven't any worthwhile contacts either so you'll have to go back to me confirming stuff after it's happened." Fair play to him for apologising though. At least HE'S admitted his mistake and hasnt tried to double down on it or given it the usual "Things change all the time" guff that Nixon does.
  18. I don't even know if it's needed, just a potential stumbling block someone else mentioned.
  19. Well done! How old are you if you dont mind me being rude? I think the above summation is a far more accurate summary of the Club's status than merely saying "The Jack Walker years were an outlier".
  20. I don't remember seeing them. Could they be reposted or is there a problem with revealing them for some reason? Surely they are factual and not open to dispute?
  21. Is there any further info on whether Jorgensen will receive international clearance in time to play tomorrow?
  22. I can't believe the fuss about Jackson getting a transfer rumour wrong. Imo he's incredibly poor at what he does in general which is rather more relevant, but this shouldnt really register on the scale. At least if he acknowledges it was wrong. Id rather he stuck his neck out occasionally and got one or two wrong than just confirm things after they've already happened and tell us what we already know. What's the use in that?
  23. Id say that's clearly not the case now having seen the 3 stooges interview and read recent comments by Pasha. Might have been a few years ago.
