Here is a joke for all the Scotts.

Ronaldinho, Zinedine Zidane and James McFadden are standing before God at the throne of Heaven. God looks at them and says , "before granting you a place at my side, I must first ask you what you believe in."

Addressing Ronaldinho first he asks, "what do you believe?"

Ronaldinho looks God in the eye and states passionately, "I believe Football to be the food of life. Nothing else brings such unbridled joy to so many people from the slums of Rio to the bright lights of Barcelona. I have devoted my life to bring such joy to people who stood on the terraces supporting their club."

God looks up and offers Ronaldinho the seat to his left.

He then turns to ZiZou, "and you, Zinedine, what do you believe?"

Zidane stands tall and proud, "I believe courage, honour and passion are the fundamentals to life and I've spent my whole playing career providing a living embodiment of these traits."

God, moved by the passion of the speech offers Zidane the seat to his right.

Finally, he turns to Faddy "and you, James, what do you believe?"

"I believe" says Faddy "you're sitting in my seat."

I hope he stays injury free for a long time.For Englands sake and also the Toon

Also, what the fuck are West Ham doing signing Solano? I have never witnessed so much money be spent on so much dross. That Egg bloke is being taken for a ride by all those dodgy agents. i reckon he'll fuck off after a few seasons and leave the Hammers in the same mess as Leeds. Only they will not have made the Champions League.



Beisty, I agree with you that WH seem to be spending a lot of money on dross but as an ardent NUFC fan I am sorry to see Solano leave. He is brilliantly gifted and quick minded and his left foot is like a wand(not so good on the right though)I hope after you have seen him a few times playing for the Hammers you will change your mind.







If i'm wrong i'm sure you will let me know :wink:




Beisty, Great win agains't the smoggies today. But where is Solano?

Good win for the Black Cats on Sat. Should have more than 2-1 though. They missed 3 or 4 really good chances. Jones had a really cracking game and could be the difference if he can keep it up.

Good to see The O's at the top of League 1. Nice one. 8)

They have no chance, they have the super Sky blues next up, 2 for 2 on the road and Dowie going back to his old stomping ground, should be fun.
Mind you we played well on Saturday but got stuffed, we deffo need to improve our finishing.

Walshy Walshy give us a wave :wink:

It's just fucking bizzare. none of us can quite tak ein the fact, and what is more it does not appear to be luck.. We actually seem to have a good team that can play very good passing football. Several of our players are easily Championship quality. Mkandawire in particular is already becoming a legend. To think we got this guy on a free from Hereford it makes you wonder about the scouting in this country. Adam Boyd is scoring some real class goals.

When we lost our talisman Matt Lockwood to Forest pre-season I thought we would be in real trouble. But his understudy Aiden Palmer is starting to look like a quality attacking full-back.

Stewart Nelson is a great keeper that we got form Brentford. He is a nutter that literally scares the shit out of opposition forwards.

I know that at some point our run will end. But the more I watch this new squad the more I believe that they are a Championship quality side. Could it be? Could it just happen? Could orient actually go up?

I know people that are starting to put money on us as you can still get good odds. i think I'm going to join them. If we do go up it coudl pay for next year's season ticket.

They look a much better side this year. I think Henry leaving is allowing other players to finally open up. That was a great game and Spure were really shown a lesson.

Chamions League.... They're having a laugh.
