The AFC rejects having a Premier League game staged in Asia.

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=507393&cc=5901

Newcastle haven't won in 9 games. And what is Keegan worried about? Getting Shearer at the club in a part time role. Awesome. Newcastle: The Gift that keeps on Giving. Kind of like VD.
Hmm........ "Newcastle: Kind of like VD, only more annoying." Better.

Re: Theres Only Oneeeeeeeee Kevin Keegan! Other teams thread. [R]

I'm not so sure I like the idea of the EPL playing worldwide. But being selfish I'm glad the AFC has rejected it. I hope this means more American cities. I just don't see the idea of a 39th game working. Teams will have to play one team 3 times, I don't see a lot of clubs being happy with this prospect.

If anyone's wondering, I'm still glad I chose Spurs over Newcastle.

Some vagina ratted on me for posting my thoughts in the Newcastle forum.

All I did was say I think Keegan is going to be at Newcastle long enough to take them down. Whats the problem there?

damn. it's been deleted, so i cannot rep it.

seriously, though. how can you expect him to be around long enough to take them down? you don't really expect newcastle united to keep a struggling manager five whole months, do you? he and his successor, shearer, will have both been sacked by this season's last match.

NEWCASTLE UNITED: THE (SILENT) MOVIE

[MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT: The Fiver Rag (
http://guardian.chtah.com/a/tBHsc4-AY30QpA...FBVKjsSKv/fvr14 )]

EXT. VILLA PARK

Happy Newcastle players trot off the pitch for their half-time
oranges. Cut to Mr Keegan getting up from the bench.

TITLE CARD: Mr Keegan ~ "All we need to do to make off with the three
points is keep it tight at the back!"

A lightbulb appears above Mr Keegan's head. He holds one finger up as
a large grin spreads across his face.

TITLE CARD: Mr Keegan ~ "My half-time team talk should do it!!!"

TITLE CARD: Seventeen minutes later...

EXT. VILLA PARK

Mr Carr, Mr Cacapa, Mr Beye and Mr Taylor run round in circles. Cut to
a smiling John Carew hammering the ball into the net. Cut to Mr Carr,
Mr Cacapa, Mr Beye and Mr Taylor running round in the shape of a big
number zero. Cut to two small boys laughing and pointing in the
crowd.

TITLE CARD: Child #1 ~ "Tee hee! That's how many more points they'll
be getting this season!" Child #2 ~ "Tee hee!"

EXT. VILLA PARK

Mr Carr slips on a banana skin. Mr Cacapa runs into a post and knocks
himself out. Mr Beye kicks himself in the face. Mr Taylor clambers up
the side of the grandstand and soon finds himself holding on for dear
life to the hands of a large clock. Mr Keegan scratches his head and
starts crying.

TITLE CARD: Meanwhile in Southampton...

INT. ST MARY'S BOARDROOM

A gentleman behind a large desk proffers a contract with "GBPGBPGBP"
written on it, while shaking a pen. Cut to Mr Alan, who shakes his
head. Cut to the gentleman, who pleads. The contract now has
"GBPGBPGBPGBPGBPGBP" written on it. Cut to Mr Alan, who vigorously
shakes his head. Cut to the gentleman, who falls to his knees and
clasps his hands together. Cut to Mr Alan, who is flicking the Vs.

TITLE CARD: Mr Alan ~ "No fear! I'll not put myself in danger of being
found out before I finally land the job at Newcas... er... I am
unable to accept your offer as I am currently contracted to BBC
Television and my busy schedule is something of an obstacle!"

INT. ST MARY'S BOARDROOM

Mr Alan bolts out of the door. The gentleman cries hysterically. He
reads a list of favourites for the Southampton job. The top name
reads "Tony Pulis". The gentleman jumps through the window.

TITLE CARD: Meanwhile back in Newcastle...

EXT. ST JAMES' PARK

Mr Keegan, wearing a brown overcoat, and Mr McDermott, sporting an
apron and bowler hat, attempt to transport a sheet of glass across
the road. They get halfway across before a Ford Model T drives right
through it. Mr Keegan and Mr McDermott then deliver a piano to the
top floor of St James' Park. The Homeric effort causes Mr Keegan to
rip a hole in the seat of his trousers.

TITLE CARD: Mr Keegan - "Yaroo! Let's hope this is the only thing the
bottom falls out of this season!"

INT. ST JAMES' PARK

Mr Keegan and Mr McDermott finally reach the top step with the piano,
only to be stopped in their tracks by Newcastle's newly installed
Head Of Piano Purchasing.

TITLE CARD: Mr Wise ~ 'This piano ain't s'posed to come up 'ere,
Keegan, you useless farkin farker! You've got the blinking floor map
upside dahn, aint'cha! Shift it before I kick your bleeding head in!
Gertcha!'

A livid Mr Keegan lets go of the piano, which rolls all the way back
down the stairs and away down the road before being smashed to pieces
by a Ford Model T. Mr Keegan knocks Mr McDermott's hat off his head.
The hat bounces down the stairs, out into the road, and is run over
by a Ford Model T.

TITLE CARD: Mr Keegan ~ "Bah! I need some proper help round here!"

Mr Keegan thinks awhile. A lightbulb appears above Mr Keegan's head.
He holds one finger up as a large grin spreads across Mr Keegan's
face.

TITLE CARD: Mr Keegan ~ "I've definitely not given up on Mr Alan! What
we have agreed is that he is going to come in training with us to
start off with and then we are going to revisit it later when the
commitments that he's made to other people are no longer in place.
The door is left absolutely wide open. It's up to Alan and me to come
up with the right solution for him coming in here. I've left the door
wide open!"

Mr Keegan stares at the wide-open door. Tears well up in Mr Keegan's
eyes. Mr Keegan makes a bolt for the door. Mr Keegan misses the frame
of the open door and runs into the wall, knocking himself out.

TITLE CARD: The End.

My wishes were to NOT have my name associated with a derrogatory thread title that was changed against my wishes and in no way violated any TOS rules. I didn't want the thread locked, I wanted the title changed back to its original un-insulting title. I take great care not to to make unprovoked negative comments towards people, and the thread title is your joke, not mine, so start your own thread with your joke title, please change my thread back to it's original name.

Re: Theres Only Oneeeeeeeee Kevin Keegan! Other teams thread. [R]

This is not derrogatory thread but a mix up fun thread for other team results. This thread title should remain as is and is a fine enough replacement since the other thread is locked down, you can't revert it. It's suppose to be light hearted but don't worry, Digital, its karma against Double if we lose to NUFC then it's not karma against you and therefore we will unleash hell at Double for cursing us.

However if we change the thread title to "Boring boring Arsenal. . . still boring" Karma might just smile on us again.

In down under football lastest news;

Australian A-league playoffs continues in this weekend A-league Preliminary Final match between Queensland Roar against Newcastle Jets to determine who will face the Central Coast Mariners (CCM) in the Grand Final. Queensland Roar lost on a 3-2 aggregate to Major Semi Final to CCM. CCM have indicating that they would like to have a rematch with Newcastle Jets in the Grand final because of the 15,000 and 20,000 Newcastle fans would a lively atmosphere.

More news on http://www.a-league.com.au/default.aspx?s=hal_home

New Zealand Football Championship continues with Former O-league champions Auckland City leading over Current O-league champions Waitakere United by two points into the penultimate round of the competition. Team Wellington is in 3rd place with 6 points away from Auckland and had lost to Waitakere by a solidarity goal and so is unlikely to host a semi-final game in the playoffs.

Waitakere United has an away O-league match against the tahitian team AS Manu Ura before coming back and play an important must win top of the table game against Auckland, Waitakere has a better GD over Auckland and a win should see them at the top with at least 10+ GD over Auckland despite being equal on points before the last round. Being minor premiership winners would set up a better playoff situation with home advantage on the way to the Grand Final.

I see now why you're pissed. You're not just being whiny. In our forum, it has some silly, Newcastle-demeaning thread title followed by your name. You don't want to be associated with that. That's cool I get it. I liked the change, I thought it was hilarious, but if that's not you, it shouldn't look like it's attributed to you. Doesn't feel right. Props for speaking up.

Thanks Sko16, I was beginning to think nobody gave a damn about what I tought or my reputation. I go to great lengths to avoid offending people even when we fundamentally disagree ... then to have stuff twisted around on you in such a public way really is irritating.

Anyway...

Atletico Madrid got ripped off badly at Bolton. Player sent off for an infraction he didn't commit, and the Wanderers ended up scoring on 10 man Atletico to win 1-0.

They'll take care of business back at the Calderon, though.
