    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    I remember Dick Knight saying years ago the problem facing Brighton was attracting the players to the club from up north. Reason being at that level the salary affects their lifestyle and many couldn't afford to come south. I know in the EPL the cost of housing etc is probably not an issue. It...

    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    For all north east clubs it’s the distance from London that matters. Been spoken about for years. To get players to go up there they have to pay high wages. No surprise then Newcastle’s wage costs are so much higher than ours. Had many holidays up in the area, love Durham but I’m not the one...

    Having lived in Ardingly for 14 years previously, I concur. The cross roads is simply the worse thing known to modern life.

    So I upset a few by saying it's a shithole. Fine so I'll rage every time someone says Croydon or Selhurst is a shithole, especially as my wife was born there. That will make 90% of NSC twats. No I let it go.

    Rather stupid it's Tuesday everyone knows it's his day off. You do realise it's often cheaper in the country.

    What? You come for me. ****ing hell I only started this as a reason for the NE clubs not attracting players, really simple. I haven't come for you at all. If one states their view then one is able to do so whilst sitting in ones country home. I only said I wouldn't live in a city, think I can...

    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    Really! Someone states something that has often been spoken about on TV radio and so on. Others don't like it. And What? It's irrelevant much like trying to compare Bruce to Potter. I didn't start insults I just gave an opinion which is held by many that have looked at the struggles NE teams...

    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    I'm certainly not ignorant my friend having spent many a time there. I'm only stating something that's been mooted for years. Frankly couldn't be bothered arguing as I say much has been written about it. Just like I'd never live in Brighton as I don't like it. City life is not for me but you...

    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    Spent time up there myself, yes it's fine, but Sunderland, Hull etc are awful. It's been spoken about for years. They can't attract players, it's not just me saying it, there's loads on the net asking/saying the same. Foreign players have expectations. Even Owen used his helicopter to go to...

    [Football] A killer stat from a Toon point of view.

    Very plain and very simple, who the **** wants to live in the North East? No one with more than a £1 in their pocket. Newcastle great night life crap aside it is the shithole of England. They ask someone to sign for them, the wag has a look and doesn't matter how many times they call her pet she...
