Another great piece from Micky Martin at True Faith....click on Magic Numbers for link. Magic NumbersOf all the fanzines and on line stuff put out by various people, for me this lot hit the mark time and time again better than anyone else. Lights Oot! Hey LO, this delete button was part of an old executable file you could send via email,right? And when the recipient clicked the button the window showed all you hard dive files going to the delete bin right? Making it look like all the files in yer C: drive were being erased, great gag. I sent to my brother in law who after enjoying the gag decided it would be good fun to forward it a sweet gray haired older secretary at his place of work during business hours. Just prior to sending it to the unsuspecting women he alerted a few of his work chums to gather by the women's desk and watch the ensuing havoc about to be wrought. The secretary recognizing my brother in laws email address opened the email and hit the "no button" and gazed on in horror as the screen showed all her HD files traveling at light speed into her delete bin. She let out a shriek, furious hit the control/alt/delete keys and finally pulled the power cord out of the wall before what she thought was all her "company work files" were being erased. The fellows by her desk seeing she was seriously distressed by the gag told her to calm down it was simply a joke going round the office. But it was too late the experience all to real for the women who was so shaken she had to take the rest of the day off. Meanwhile my brother in law was called in on the carpet and told by a higher up this kind of behavior would no longer be tolerated and one more incident would lead to his dismissal. An unfortunate character flaw my brother in law posses lead to another "indecent" and he was sacked before years end. But I would like to thank you for rekindling those fond memories BTW I hit yer link which sent to a Bing search page and I just had to click on True Faith..............simples

Some interesting stuff being touted about last night and this morning is making the bullsh*tometer go crazy.
First off one that was doing the rounds last night that Apee wants the Crystal Palace job and out of The Toon. For many that can't happen quick enough. Although the prospect of JFK taking over makes me think it's possibly best they don't get what they wish for as that may just tip me over the edge completely.
Then doing my usual morning trawl across the media I read that APee admitted his Newcastle United side passed up a golden chance to make the quarter-finals of the Capital One Cup as they suffered an extra-time defeat to Manchester City last night. On top of that you get more sound bites such as these next classic lines.
“It's disappointing not to score because I thought we played well enough to warrant a goal,” or “I couldn't really ask any more of the players – their performance level was really high. We had Man City in a difficult situation, and it's a shame we just didn't get our noses in front. We had a big chance at the start of extra-time, and when you take the lead in extra-time, it's very difficult for a team to claw it back because people get tired. The first goal was critical in that period, and unfortunately for us, they scored it."
Alan mate I have watched a lot of football played by your team selections and believe me when I say The Toon last night could have played for another ninety minutes and not scored. Then to add insult to injury I read this next bit and thought the meter would burst into flames...
“In the last three games before this, our performance levels have been high,” said Pardew. “Obviously you have periods in games where you don't dominate as much as you would like, and on Sunday at the start (against Sunderland), we didn't dominate.
“But the performance level was still high, and I always think that results will follow if you're like that. (Defeats in my mind)
“If you looked at us tonight, you'd have to say we're not in bad form. It's not like people are lacking confidence, and the players that came in did very well. (I understand he has to say these things, but my God it's embarrassing having been there, unless someone else can convince me it was otherwise.)
“We've just got to keep maintaining that level. We're in a difficult run of games, there's no doubt about that. We've certainly got two tough fixtures in the next two, so we need a repeat of the performance level we had here.” (A repeat of the last two performances and Alan you will not need to worry anymore as you will be gone!)
“We certainly can't do anything on the training ground. It will be purely on the (tactics) board, and put our feet up and get some nutrients into the guys. Hopefully, we can hit the levels we hit tonight. If we can play as well as we did here, we'll have a chance against Chelsea.” (Yeah! a good chance of losing, FFS)
Then I read this...
Alan Pardew has thanked the Toon Army for not barracking his players after their derby day disappointment against Sunderland – but claims “tired legs” are again beginning to affect his team.
The Magpies boss argued that fatigue was one of the main factors during last season’s struggles and one of the factors which meant they slumped to 16th in the table.
Yet as fans’ patience was tested again after United crashed out of the competition many see as the best shot at glory, Pardew – who was linked to the managerial vacancy at Crystal Palace today according to national reports – felt his side was unlucky to go out.
The under-pressure Toon boss said afterwards: “It is galling to go out because of the performance levels of not just the team, but the fans as well. (More's the pity the bloody fans weren't on the pitch playing)
“They did not give us a hard time about Sunderland.
“I appreciated that.
“It was a shame we did not get a victory for them.
“We could not have done any more in terms of effort.”
Pardew and United’s press office – who have banned the Chronicle – opted for a charm offensive with Sky last night by offering them dressing-room access before the game.
There was no post-game access for the cameras after the defeat, but Londoner Pardew added: “We are in a tough run of games.
“They (Man City) were tough opponents.”
Pardew pointed to “tired legs” – despite the season only just going into November.
He said: “From where I was standing, there was a real physical presence about them.
“We are feeling that in the dressing room.
“There were a lot of bruised bodies and tired legs out there.”
It does not get any easier for Pardew on Saturday lunchtime when Premier League title hopefuls Chelsea roll into Toon fighting to go top of the table.
The United manager added: said: “We have a quick turnaround.
“It has to be feet up for us.
“We have to hope we get the breaks against Chelsea.
“If we play like that every week we will be OK. I thought the players who came in played well.
“Moussa Sissoko also had a good game and I felt that was important.
“He had been substituted in the last two games.
“We went down to 10 men against Liverpool and he was substituted again against Sunderland.”
And on and on it goes in much the same vein across the web and in the Papers. On that basis I have one piece of important news to tell him and the press officer Wendy Taylor. These kind of statements is a repeat of those from last season when the side just avoided relegation only this time around I firmly believe far fewer supporters are buying into them.
If this keeps up I may have to go out and buy another bullsh*tometer as the other one didn't take kindly to being thrown against the wall. Also should anyone fancy a seat for the game against Chelski drop me a PM.
Lights Oot!

Obviously the main culprit is Ashley shifting him is nigh on impossible but Alan Pardew is another matter. Pardew did well to get the club into fifth position no-one can deny him that but since then we have gone pear shape mostly because of Ashley BUT AP has to shoulder his portion of blame. The bullshit has hit record levels its time for a change..I cannot see Ashley throwing JFK into the kitchen he will fail he is old hat and I think Ashley (should)know this. Its the stupid 8 year contract that is a problem if they could come to a mutual agreement then I think we have a chance but if its carry on as we are we will end up, up the Kyber and no mistake...
