If everybody at the next Newcastle press conference had clown feet and rode around on uni-cycles, I would not bat an eyelid.

Huh?

Have pm'd you

Six points off a play-off place with a games in hand. What's wrong with that?

Eleven games unbeaten. I can think of a lot of teams and their supporters who'd be delighted with that.

If the decision goes our way, do the nimby's have any sort of right to appeal?

It has to be Rushall Olympic given their proximity to Chasetown and Hednesford

Lee Hughes was set free from prison yesterday and walked straight into an £80,000-a-year contract at Oldham along with warnings that the rest of the football world may not be so forgiving. £80,000 a year should help him with his psychological preparation

495 registered members on OWTB. 56 have voted in the poll. 4500 Latics fans at the average home game. The 56 are going to need loud voices! I don't want to put a damper on this but it's been tried before and the songs Latics fans sing are usually copied off other supporters or are ones that everyone sings like '3 Lions'. It would be nice if Latics fans adopted a song but quite frankly some of the ones mentioned have been laughable. I can think of at least 20 Latics fans who have never seen OWTB, JKL or the official site and until everybody has, it is a bit of a lost cause.

Programme Editor, Gordon Lawton, has his own views on the debate. He feels that the lads should run out to the non-vocal version of 'Jump' by Van Halen, and says that 'Another One Bites The Dust' by Queen should blare out after the lads find the back of the net. A good enough reason to throw the vote open to the fans if one were needed.

Guns of Navarone is a good choice as it has no words as such. It's far easier for people to join in if all they have to do is go 'Ner, ner, ner, ner, ner' etc. I must seek out my pork pie hat.

Thanks for the info, I'll have to weigh up the options I think.

As someone who never really had time for mobile phones, I now have an all singing, all dancing one that the wife bought me. It comes with a 'package' of so many texts and so many minutes of calls per month. The question I wanted to ask is, if I sign up for the Latics SMS service which costs 25p a text, does that money get deducted from my monthly 'allowance' or do I have to pay for it seperatly?

Can't decide who it is now you mention it. From the same game:-

A slightly different 'Face in the crowd'. To me, this one says "Good grief Killen, get up off the floor and pish off to Scotland"

OK here goes: 82/83 All Latics homes, Burnley (2), Barnsley, Carlisle (2), Crystal Palace (2), Rotherham, Grimsby (2), Bolton (3), Middlesboro, Leeds, Cambridge, 83/84 all Latics homes: Man City, Charlton, Cambridge, Leeds 84/85 all homes: Middlesboro, Blackburn, Sheff Utd 85/86 all homes: Millwall (2), Carlisle, Bradford (2), Barnsley, Hull (2), Portsmouth (2), Wimbledon, Shrewsbury, Stoke, Sunderland, Brighton, Charlton, Huddersfield, Grimsby. Having 2 or even 3 of the same prog borders on the obsessive! I didn't realise till I started listing them. You can have whatever ones you want for free, I need the space.
