Very quiet in Geordie Land...

I actually like the passion of the geordie support and have been in the company of a small portion of the 'Toon Army' in Hamilton Hall many years ago after they lost to Assnal in the FA Cup final, I was on me way back from the MIddlesex Sevens Rugby at Twickenham. Despite losing, they sang with the Assnal supporters and behaved fantastically whilst being very pished. I can't think of many clubs fans in football that would have mixed with support of the other side, after travelling down so far and losing, and made the best of a day out. I will never forget that day, as I have so often seen the ugly side of supporters acting like complete idiots under the influence and damaging the reputation of the beautiful game.

So why do we not see a massive club with huge support in the market for players after a bad season? Is it the influence of the Cockney 'you know what?' I'm a bit miffed to be honest as they announced record profits last year but they seem 'nowhere to be seen' in the transfer market. Your thoughts?

daft as brushes most of them , whats with taking off your shirt when its minus 7 i wouldn't mind but they look disgusting, big beer belly's and man tit's all over the shop

Ashley has twice tried to sell the club and not found a buyer. I think they will be in limbo until they get a new owner who isn't purely concerned with making a profit.

Say what you like but you must applaud the loyalty and enthusiasm of the Geordie fans. For years now they have had to put up with owners who seem to have their minds elsewhere and managers who seem to be lacking in all but a few areas, sound familiar? Give them and the rest of loyal fans countrywide (not spuds) a pat on the back for watching crap week in week out, unless you are a spuds fan in which case you don't know better.
