Go on Villa!

[Sittingduck]

As a Birmingham City fan I never thought I'd be rooting for Villa but I have been this afternoon

Bye Bye NUFC!

 

[TVC]

Is something going on today? I've no idea, I've only been watching sky news.

Last day off the Premier League...
Newcastle relegated

 

[rich p]

I only saw the last 5 minutes but I couldn't help sniggering as the cameras panned onto the tear stained faces of the shirtless fans.

 

[Dayvo]

Yeah but, at least Sunderland stayed up.

Boro and N'Castle fans can swap allegiances!

Yeah I heard there's not much loyalty in footie support up that way

Michael Owen in Div 1 next year or will he get a transfer to Stoke? Either way it's a sad end to a once promising career.

 

[Sittingduck]

Yup - too injury prone.

Always one of my favourite ends to a season

Fat, shirtless Geordies crying - endless talk in the studio about the North East being a hotbed of football (despite their teams never winning anything) etc etc

Mind you I'm a Norwich supporter and we'll be in the Conference given a couple of seasons

 

[Riverman]

At this rate, Exeter may be playing Newcasle in a few years. Fancy that. lol

Alan Shearer's a football genius.

Stayed on the telly, you should have stayed on the telly, etc.

What's the difference between Newcastle and Alan Shearer?
Alan Shearer will be on Match of the Day next season.

Sorry but couldn't finish this thread! We have been rubbish all season, no doubt about it but that is down to poor ownership/management and the purchase of inferior players. Critisising the fans, who have had to watch this garbage is out of order! How many teams have won bugger all and have 54,000 attendance? No argument we have been substandard all season but we will be back. We are the Geordies......to be continued.

Personally, I'm glad to see the back of them and that awful ground. The contempt with which they treat away fans (and some of their own) and the distance away from the pitch they seat you is disgraceful. The last row at Camp Nou is some way from the pitch and we sat there a couple of seasons ago but it is half the distance from the action of the lower rows of the away section at St. James's. There's lads I know who won't go 'cos of the hundreds (literally) of stairs you have to climb to get to your seats (admittedly, they're not natures' finest specimens, but still!) In fact, you can see the Metro Centre better than what's going on on the pitch and it's like watching a Subbutoeo match.
