Well, I’m too busy preparing for the big day now. Friday 14th Sept. so this blog will be a little quiet for a while. I’m then off the Egypt, for 2 weeks in Sharmel Shiek and I can’t wait. Yippee. Anyway, I’ll let you know all about it when I come back.
England tonight and surely the red faced ginger one has to pick the same team, especially after Heskey made me eat my cyber words.!? The whole team looked balanced I thought and deserve another go. Also three live Toon games on while I’m away, GREAT. Up the Toon.
See You Soon.

The Boy Done Good..
I told you didn’t I, I told you Heskey should be back in the England squad…… Oh ok I know, I didn’t, I ridiculed the idea, as he’s a big lump of a cart horse.
Ok, I admit it, Heskey played really well on Saturday, he did the job he was supposed to do, and that was to make a nuisance of himself and hold the ball up. His link up play I thought was exceptional even if he did miss a couple of sitters (but then again little Mickey did also). We shouldn’t all get really carried away though as it was only Israel at home?! The ‘big test’. as everyone is saying. is Russia?! Granted Russia are a decent team, but how bad can it be getting, we haven’t been this worried about the visit of the Russians, since the cold war. We should be destroying teams like Russia at home, in fact, we should have walked this group to be fair.!! Anyhow, in my opinion McClaren should keep the same team as on Saturday as we performed well in every department. Let just see what happens eh?

MAN URE - Robbing Tactics.
It seems that the new American hieracy that has taken over at Manchester United has decided to bleed dry the only loyal/proper supporters they have. It seems that ManUre had written into the small print of the season ticket terms that they would only release the season tickets to the purchaser of such item if they agreed to buy a ticket for every cup game for the forthcoming season. That included all Euro ties. Bearing in mind these tickets retail at £38 a pop.
Well a bloke I work with who has been a season ticket holder for the past 11 years is going mental and has already contacted ManUre for his season ticket money back and has told them to shove their tickets up their fat cash hording arse. As he was telling me this, I assumed he was exaggerating and he must have know I was thinking this, because as I got back to my desk I noticed he’d forwarded an email from ManUre telling him that they’d tried to debit his account for the first cup ticket.. and this is what it said…..
"In the event of a card or payment being declined: (i) a ticket will not be issued, (ii) where the season ticket holder is a One Year Only Season Ticket holder, such season ticket holder may lose their priority position on any season ticket waiting list, and (iii) the season ticket holder will be liable to pay any resulting bank or other similar charge incurred by the Club. In addition, if a card or payment is declined on two or more occasions (whether during a single season or over the course of more than one season) the Club shall have the right to: (i) terminate the season ticket holder’s participation in the Season Ticket Holders Home Cup Ticket Scheme; (ii) withdraw the season ticket holder’s season ticket with immediate effect and/or; (iii) terminate any other arrangements that the season ticket holder has with the Club."
….Bloody hell, I know, robbing bastards. So they could terminate your season ticket for not buying a cup ticket? Now that is taking your eye balls out. Truly devilish behaviour (pun intended). Just thought I’d share that with you. So you season ticket holders at other clubs. It may not be too long before the others catch on, it’s up to you to make a stand, and or, read the small print to avoid highway robbery. I though will continue to be a armchair supporter with the odd away game thrown in for good measure. But to be fair, it’s a good job for non-NUFC fans that I don’t go to every game, because I’m quite a lucky omen to be honest. I’ve never seen Newcastle get beat in the Premier League. And before you say it, (you’ve probably only been to 1 game) no, I’ve probably been to about 30-40 games, admittedly in the Keegan days but still, not a bad accolade to have. Plus I have seen them play, Man U, Liverpool and Arsenal in recent seasons. Up the Toon.

BLOODY HESK
What on earth is going on, (See my post below entitled In-Grrrr-lund, last paragraph) “At least he didn’t recall Heskey”. Well yes, the red faced fool has gone and re-called Mr Goal machine himself Emile Heskey, 6 goals in 43 games!!??
Apparently Owen has asked for him, if that’s the case then not only has Owen has lost his mind, but more importantly, WHO IS PICKING THE ENGLAND SQUAD? McLaren or the players?
Emile Heskey, I mean HESKEY, what happened to a new beginning for England, out with the old and in with the new blood. He dropped all the old faithful, only to bring them back along with a couple of donkey’s for good luck (not sure if donkey’s bring you good luck, but you know what I mean).
I understand, no not understand, I’ve heard that he wants to bring back some more experienced players. So Heskey. The only thing that he’s experienced in, is looking embarrassed to be in the England set up. What’s wrong with bringing some of the young talent into the fold? The likes of young Derbyshire, Lita or even Nugent (one in one for England). Or my favourite, if he’s looking for a big target man, then look no further than Dean Ashton, at least he’s got some skill and guile to go with it.
Quote from Heskey after hearing about his call-up, "I have to admit it comes as a bit of a surprise." No shit Sherlock. But then it just shows McLarens, inept managerial skills. I wonder if his PR man, Max Clifford put him up to this? At least if it’s publicity he wants, it’s what he’s going to get!! Why does the England boss need a PR man like Clifford anyway? Tosser.
Hiddink v McLaren, great, it’s going to take a huge performance from the underachieving England team, because McLaren is never going to win in a battle of tactics, wit, charm, guile or belief over Hiddink.
Bring back the Swede or the Turnip, either way we’re managed by a vegetable.
