top north east side of the season??

[Heart Break Kid]

who do u think itll be?

[Funya Chin]

How are Darlington and Hartlepool going to finish higher than the Premierleague lot?

[Heart Break Kid]

lol nah highest position
not inc league :P
so basically darlo = 3 :) and newcastle 15
darlo = highest :P

[Funya Chin]

Wel, there are different numbers of teams in the Football League as opposed to the Premier League but anyway, it'll be Newcastle quite obviously.

I hate to admit it but...

[Heart Break Kid]

but what???

[mangle]

Newcastle imo, inspite of the fact I can't stand Keegan.

Bender.

[Geraint]

Blyth Spartans.

[Browney]

but what???

Well I think that from a Sunderland fan to a Boro fan, we both know that Newcastle will come out on top. But the battle between Boro and S'land might be more intresting. ;)

[Heart Break Kid]

aye :)
but atm boro 6th :P:P:P
probz wont last
but the best position weve been this season is 4th =]
but yeah between mackems and smoggies
it will be a lot more interesting =]

[Captain]

I do hope you're joking.. Newcastle are lucky to even be in the premier league. I still find it funny how Newcastle think of themselves as a top club. Year after year they under perform after spending millions in the transfer window and they still manage to do crap. We don't even need to be funded by a billionaire unlike the majority of the premierleague. Newcastle don't get anywhere by their management or tactics, they only manage to survive by scrounging off their chairman to provide funds for past-their-best players.

Lets face it, Middlesbrough are a better team with better facilities and a ever-producing youth academy.

i fully agree
and... gibbo is a local lad financing his local club how many people who do that do you see in the world????

not very often but where are boro going with him as their chairman:S
the answer is nowhere apart from relegation or a mid table finish. all premiership clubs need possibly a foreign investor with plenty of money
to take them a step further.

[Brody]

this year i see newcastle finishing higher

[Captain]

Not really.. look at blackburn and everton. Do they have foreign investors? Nope. Do they have plenty of money? Nope.

I guarantee Middlesbrough will finish higher than Newcastle this season, if not i'll burn my season ticket. :) ..which will be useless anyway because the season will of ended

[Heart Break Kid]

loooool :P
but 95 pounds a season tickets for under 18's or 16's i forgot
is remarkable
and it showed against tottenham
32000+ nearly max cap :o

nope but Blackburn struggled last season and its look like Everton will struggle this season because they dont have any money to add to their squad and make it stronger. In the premier league now teams without any money and a decent financial backing will struggle.

[Captain]

Explain to me how blackburn struggled last season after finishing 7th.. :\ How do you know Everton will struggle this season? The transfer window isn't closed yet and they're already closing in on some decent players.
Clubs only need wealthy investors if they want to pay a bunch of primadonna's who are only at the club for the money.

Lucky to be in the... what? I'm sorry, I didn't see Newcastle anywhere near the bottom last season and I should know. Infact, 'Boro were closer to the bottom yet your talking like Newcastle finished in 17th. Oh and a better team and yet Newcastle are still the higher acheiving side?

[Captain]

They only achieved higher due to a fluke ;) Newcastle can't get anywhere unless they splash millions.

If you didn't support Boro I'd respect your unbiased opinion.

[Paulio]

Boro, obv

[mangle]

Newcastle have splashed a lot of cash about though, whether that will count I'm not too sure atm.

[Captain]

How do you know I support Boro? :eusa_whis

[Paulio]

They do every summer and it never does lol.

[Geraint]

I don't see why your all complaining about the money Newcastle spend. Man United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool spend money. If they didn't where would they be. Newcaslte are the bigger and I fail to see how Middlesbrough fans think they're better.

[Paulio]

Newcastle are bigger, yes but there not better.

Middlesbrough are the most succesful team in the North East in recent years. Won the Carling cup, FA Cup final runners up, UEFA Cup runners up.

[Browney]

Ok sweet, Tottenham are a better team than Arsenal because Arsenal haven't won anything in a couple of years and Tottenham won the Carling cup.

[Andys]

Sunderland ;)

are you for real?

Since when did tottenham finish in the top 4?

tottenham fans go on when they beat arsenal 5-1 or w.e the score was which is quite funny actuilly seen as tho arsenal had there reserve team out.

Sunderland will finish higher than boro :)

[Captain]

Yes thats right Sunderland will finish higher than Boro :rolleyes:

I can see you finishing above Newcastle, that's about it.

[Bun]

bah, cisse and diouf have just have me more of a reason to hate the mackems. newcastle think they're WAY better than they are, roll on 29th of november! :D




yeah my opinion is biased, but i wouldn't have it any other way ;).

[Heart Break Kid]

well atm boro winnin 1-0
sunderland winning 2-1
newcastle winning 1-0

i think boro might score again tho =]

edit: liverpool equalised =[

edit: liverpool have took the lead
>.<

[Captain]

That match was ridiculous, how we lost I'll never know. The final whistle should of went a long time ago but the ref carried on for about 2/3 minutes.

We played really good though, alot of imporvement on last season.

[Browney]

LOL well atm Middlesbrough are better than S'land not on points, not on goal difference (because they're the same) but because M comes before S. :P

[Captain]

Yeah :P Newcastle are lucky too, saving a penalty and all that.

They should be on 2 points tbf

[Heart Break Kid]

LOL well atm Middlesbrough are better than S'land not on points, not on goal difference (because they're the same) but because M comes before S. :P

M also comes before N
so boro are the best =]

[Browney]

na, Newcastle have more points. But S'land and Boro have equal points and Goal dif.

[YellowParasol]

Darlington or Middlesbrough cant decide which 1 but i reckon it will be one of them two,

[Captain]

Aslong as the North east teams do good this season, I'll be happy. I wont be as happy if Newcastle finish above us though (which they wont)

[Heart Break Kid]

course they wont =]

[msb.]

hartlepool
i think

[Bun]

hartlepool
i think
they beat west brom in the league cup last night :O.

[Heart Break Kid]

and we won yeovile comfortably
newcastle nearly lost against coventry - who to be fair have beat man u
:)
boro ftw!

[bigdavecox90]

I reckon Sunderland.

They have made some really decent signings this season, namely Cisse.

Also with them looking to tie up a deal for Anton Ferdinand, who knows what they will do!?

Top half of the Prem this season.

[Jam]

I live in Newcastle but have no faith in them at all plus I kinda still support Southampton. I'd say:

Boro: 8th
Sunderland:10th
Newcastle: 14th

Most likely ;)

[Heart Break Kid]

:o good man :P
now put that in the poll

[Heart Break Kid]

sorry for double post
(hopefully a mod might merge)
AHEM who's currently fifth?
