Newcastle - as bad as the Scousers?

"How do we make this about us?"

Absolutely f***ing staggering

 

[Sister Ray]

Obviously aimed at Liverpool, but I agree a shit choice of wording by the OP with a certain other thread on the front page.

Very good point.

Can any mods amend the title?

Is that a legit quote?

Is that a legit quote?

It's my opinion based on what I saw.

 

[Beau Peep]

"He was a huge fan of North East football, turning down the Newcastle job"

Yes, well that follows...

 

[What A Waster]

The chronicle always look for a local angle on any big national or international story.
Cash for clicks.

 

[The Shepherd]

He loved them so much he turned down the Newcastle job

...and later signed a player he noticed who was playing for us, bet the terrace knowledge was rife on the Gallowgate in that game

Always loved Newcastle

They don't give a f*ck he's passed, they just wanna pat themselves on the back

Absolutely unequivocally this..!!

Why cant they just run a story saying he was a good bloke and good football manager without the need to turn it into a how great is Newcastle piece. Embarrassing.

Quite right, well said.

 

[longtimelurker]

Desperate stuff from a failure of a club using any excuse to cling onto relevance!
Show the bloke some respect FFS.

 

[Kevin Arnott's right boot]

Never underestimate the knowledge of the average football fan, not a single one of whom can recognise one of the best young managers in the game when they are standing right next to him.

Are you above average?

 

[TopCat]

they really love grieving don't they?

This time they've harnessed the passing of Graham Taylor.

Anyone know what minutely they'll wrongly clap in this time?

Wonder if Princess Di was a huge Newcastle fan, or whether the pressure of being a fan would have been too much for here such is the massive massive club

Absolute joke of an article but hilarious that those evenings on the Gallowgate ended up with him signing an SAFC player

Which player mate?

 

[sonofsamsmith]

Which player mate?

Wilf Rostron ?

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

So by turning down the job and going there to scout players , he's always loved Newcastle? They are seriously odd folk, those fuckers

 

[Nipple Salad]

That's one to put on Graham's headstone

"He went to the Gallowgate once"

Talk about tenuous links
