    How bad is Drury ?

    Never get this argument o Never understand this argument of ‘I’d like to see some of you try’. That’s not the point. If I think my plumber has done a bad job, I am free to comment. Doesn’t mean I am obliged to give it a go myself.

    How bad is Drury ?

    I find him very difficult to listen to. Smug with no good reason to be. His compulsion to use the opposition’s nickname grates on me. The Robins, The Bluebirds, The Foxes etc. Give it a rest.

    What has been your most ‘rock and roll’ moment?

    I shared a flat with an NME journalist in London in 2005 so have quite a few of these.

    How many coffees do you have a day?

    I’ve been decaf across the board now, both tea and coffee, for a couple of years. The I hear that the chemicals with which they use to decaffeinate are potentially harmful. Nothing is straightforward.

    Eid Mubarak عيد مبارك

    Being as the Earth is 4.6 billion years old, I reckon the difference between 3,000 years and 6,000 years is fairly negligible.

    Your most obscure Boro 11

    Judging by RedcarRed’s surprise/incredulity earlier on in the thread, I’m surmising that he has conflated Gustavo Lombardi and Attilio Lombardo.

    Who knew about these ?

    Of course the Terry’s Chocolate Apple pre-dates the Chocolate Orange, although it wasn’t apple flavoured. The 1970s saw the Chocolate Lemon. Sounds resistible .

    Wilder Leaked Team

    Someone needs to tell him it’s ‘another think coming’ and not ‘another thing coming’.

    The Libertines to play Redcar Beach

    I saw them about twenty times back in the day. Cherry Jam, Rhythm Factory, Cockpit etc. Saw Babyshambles several times too including their first ever gig at The Troubadour. However, this leaves me cold. For me, The Libertines were about a time and a place. It doesn’t make sense to me seeing...

    Boro 89-90

    Can’t believe nobody has mentioned the presence of the (in)famous Boro Bugler that season.

    In Carrick we trust

    Not really true. Karanka, Monk, Robson and McClaren were all younger than Mowbray when they took the reins and they were all backed heavily. Warnock was highly experienced and not hugely backed financially. Neither was Wilder really.

    Poor form from The Gazette

    In my opinion. Needlessly stigmatising the rest of the neurodiverse community.

    Newcastle play Chelsea in London on the play-off weekend too.

    Will have to jump on the bandwagon. Would people recommend drawers or shelves?

    Things nobody said in the 80’s….and go

    People didn’t say ‘haitch’ in the eighties did they?

    Things nobody said in the 80’s….and go

    No one said ‘random’ to mean anything other than ‘without conscious decision’. “I opened the magazine on a random page.” Now people say things like, “I was talking to a random person,” or “Just a random non-league club.” etc

    “Bottled it.”

    How? Because I don’t think it was lack of courage/bravery.
