reet. so Graeme Souness is the new magpies gaffer, after much speculation over the past week. and football365 put up this rather hilarious piccie gallery of an expected comedy on the toon touchline.
although they ain't my footy team, i have sort of an affection towards 'em since their last visit to the islet in july 1996. made my way to the stadium to wait for their arrival, to witness my first ever premiership club visit.
and there i was in my manyoooo jersey. that caused utter agony to a certain Kevin Keegan.
and if only i was a few hours earlier whilst in newcastle upon tyne later that year. i could have been on a tour of st james park. when i arrived at the ticketing booth looking forward to a massive piccie-snapping opportunity, only to be told: ".. we have just finished the tour..".
ack!
"so when's the next?" i asked. "next week," came the reply. for some strange reason, i was crestfallen. "but..but i would be back home by then!" i exclaimed to nobody in particular.
"never mind, i'll have a look see of the stadium outside," i continued, sniffin'. and a piccie of it graced a wall in my room.
as enscribed by the letter b @ September 6, 2004 05:14 PMActually, looking at how Mr. Freddy Fatboy is managing the club, no gaffer in their right mind will want to take up the poisoned chalice... oh wait... Mr. Moustached is there already...

as blahed by the letter b @ September 7, 2004 02:45 AMKeegan would have been a better choice, methinks. Or Sir Alex of Ferguson, for that matter. *snigger*
