Well done that made me laugh

That is Steve McLaren to a tee. He was in our carriage coming back from London. He certainly was up his own a..e. Steve Gibson is a decent bloke. I once had a long chat with Gareth Southgate on a train to London before he was England manager. No side to Gareth, down to earth.

The thing I like about Carrick is he keeps a level head not like some of those in the Premiership with their historonics. Carrick was well schooled at Wallsend Boys club. 

I was brought up in Wallsend.

We have so many players out injured (or suspended for gambling).

The big downside with getting into Europe again, we still don't have a big enough squad.

We still have a long way to go.  Just so unlucky with injuries.

Love your comments on some of the players.

Wallsend, sorry to hear that my friend

Wallsend was ok when I was young, but then again what did I know!

They probably hadn't put a brick in the wall at that time. Besides where i grew up was knocked down in the early 60s slum clearance. And some of my ancestors on mam's side are Wallsend and Tynemouth 

Hi Steve just checked up ancerster live at balist hills Wallsend, it's not there now.

Hello Gina

Just a quick one - us blokes have been busy talking football and all that other nonsense men talk about - I know ice cream and do-nuts are far more important.

I know you will be up to your neck in Christmas stuff but it's been a couple of weeks and I thought of you and Richard earlier and wondered how you both are getting on? (I do hope everything is OK).

Best wishes - Brian.

Hi Brian, do-nuts and ice cream are nice, they would knock my diabetes out of sync, so the girl's are welcome to them, I'll stick to football,
