Martin Tyler was beside himself with love today watching the 2 clubs he adores the most waxing lyrical about how great they both are. Apparently it’s one of life’s great mysteries why Newcastle haven’t won a trophy for about 50+ years. It’s quite simple, Martin, they’ve been shit for the vast majority of that time. Nothing to do with curses or bad luck, they’ve been shit.

It wasn't just Tyler. Talksport and MOTD were just as bad. The party line appears to be that it is one of the greatest fixtures in English football. Pretty much based on one game crucial to the title race twenty odd years ago.

A title race neither of them won or have since.

Well there were a few cracking games (well 2 or 3) between the two in the 90s when Newcastle were quite good and exciting for a bit but that's hardly enough to make a classic of the English fixture list.  More PL hype innit.

I knew something was bothering you.

Your inability to understand a simple statement doesn't bother you? If you're a grown adult it should do. It might stop you trying, and failing, at sarcasm.

As I said. At least you finally understood what "top 6" means. That certainly bothered you yesterday.

What on earth are you rambling on about?

Some basic manners wouldn't go amiss, by the way.

That could be said about a lot of people on here so I don’t know why you’re just picking on Villa75.

Because I've only been on here a month, and need to 'know my place'.

I have yet to find out how long I need to wait before I am allowed to respond to attacks and snipes about being deceitful previous posters in disguise (it must be getting up to about half a dozen different ones by now).

Nothing gets said about that, of course.

Villa75, I have always found that people will treat you in kind on this forum, regardless of how new a poster you are. Instead of being paranoid maybe you could bear that in mind. What you seem to have done here is the equivalent of going round to meet the new neighbours, farting loudly in their porch and then getting stroppy when they don't invite you in.

Ta very much. Although my tenses were all over the place so I've corrected them.

I responded in kind to attacks on who I was or was not, just because I expressed a different view on subjects.

I dared to suggest that Villa might only get 4/5 points from the next three games and, I presume because I'm new, was classed as being overly negative and tedious, along with the ever so humorous "it must be xxxx" (version 6).

As I said. If someone can left me know how long need to be here, doffing my cap and saying "yes gov" before I can have an alternative opinion, then perhaps I can work out if it's worth the wait and the one sided attacks.

I don't know who you are
But I can guarantee you've not been as negative about Bruce as me and I've been poking around here for over 10 years

We'll be Champions League regulars by then so there'll be nothing for anyone to disagree or be negative about anyway.

Mmm 4-5 points. We’re due handing out a stuffing to B’Lose so that’s 3 of em but I suppose that will depend on the first two games as to if it is a stuffing or just a win. That being the case Villa 75 is saying we will not beat either Wolves or Fulham and maybe even lose to one of them.

After 4 in a bounce that is a bit pessimistic mate, but boarderline acceptable I suppose. We’d actually be better off losing to B’Lose and taking the points of our direct rivals but  er no thank you!

I'm sure he isn't bothered about what I say.

Not picking on him, saunders_heroes. Merely expecting better manners towards other posters. There was no need for his comments.

But if any offence was caused, my apologies Villa75.

To be fair he does seem to have come in for some unfair stick and accusations of being SilhillVilla or whatever other previous posters have wound people up, simply for expressing what to me looked like valid opinions honestly expressed.  It's only paranoia if they're not out to get you...
