    New Manager

    Will be an interesting game tomorrow, I'll be in the 1892 Seats, Milburn lower level, not far from the corner flag next to the Sir John stand.

    Looking forward to this weekend, and a few beers down the quayside afterwards!

    This is my first season as a season ticket holder. Seated in Sir John Hall stand (middle tier) just to the East Stand side of the goal.

    Started attending games in 1971 for about 5 years then was an armchair supporter whilst I was away from the North East until last year when I started going to the games again.

    Now wonder why I missed all those years.

    Looking forward to Bolton on Saturday, a win would really build us up for an exciting end to what has been a disappointing season.

    Agree with you about Sourpus, never liked the guy, didn't deserve the job.

    Not a season ticket holder, not much need as have access to a number of tickets for almost every game, but due to work, bit difficult to get to every home game. Tend to get to a quite a large number of away games due to where I now live just off the M62 in Yorkshire.

    And you?

    I agree that O'Neill or Hitzfeld would be ideal but doubt that we'll get either. Not overly keen on Allardyce.

    Roeder seems to have gelled the team so not as worried about him being in charge until the end of the season as I was when Souness went (although delighted to get rid of him).

    I just hope that whoever we get is 'wanted' by the majority of the fans and that he is given a fair crack of the whip. The taxi was waiting for Souness from the moment he first set foot into St. James.

    Would like O'Neill or Hitzfeld but can't see either joining given O'Neill's holding for the England job and Freddy doesn't like the German. Suspect Freddy will try and sort out Roeder's qualifications if he continue's to do well....playing well, not have to pay anyone compensation and he won't ask for £2-3m a year salary!

    Do you have anyone in mind?

I mentioned the Shearer Testimonial to him and he is up for it as one of his best mates is a Toon fan and would probably come along too. Celtic are only getting 3000 tickets, but I am sure segregation will not be that much of an issue. I'll let you know!
    Cheers SB, drop me an email if you fancy coming up.

    Football talk is really so dull.

    Let's return to economic theory and the Nash equilibrium. John Nash used to imagine he had friends in order to have homo-erotic fantasies. Is that why you imagine you have friends sb ?

    Says the Gooner fan whose team would give their right arm to be in even a wobbly 4th position!

    IF Roma get there of course. A wobbly looking 4th in Serie A at the moment, and no Totti for the rest of the season. Forza Fiorentina I say!
