That Newcastle team couldn't defend though.

I was born in '84 ... so I've never had to 'suffer' them winning it. Is it as bad as I'm imagining?

After living through the 0-5 at Goodison '82 and the 86' Cup final - this is small fry mate

If you think that was the abyss...wait'll you see what the reality looks like. It's arriving real soon.

Don't know how old you are Dave but I grew up when they were as successful as Fergie's Man Utd. This is nothing compared to that.

 

[daza_1973]

How did Newcastle mess that up lol

Dunno mate - ask Kevin Keegans physiatrist

Don't know how old you are Dave but I grew up when they were as successful as Fergie's Man Utd. This is nothing compared to that.

I saw it too. But that was then and this is now. The success this season will be magnified a thousand times more by the size and extent of of the media reach - social and mainstream.

It will be literally unavoidable. It'll seep like a miasma into your pores and there will be no way of avoiding it. Just when and where you think you can get respite from it - BANG it'll be in your face - day after day after day after day. They own the media. They will make full use of it.

Literally nobody I work with will care. I know a couple of casual RS fans but I'm lucky. I remember when they won the Champions League it affected me for about 2 days, I'm luckier than most.

Then you are blessed. But you wont avoid it. Not at all. It will be wall-to-wall, day-to-day coverage. You cant escape. You WONT escape.

We were poo then as well, I see.

We finished sixth that year - with the Bogeyman Peter Johnson running the club - so not that poo

Sense of perspective mate......worse things in this country and world to get angry about.......Dave wins the award for the most paranoid 1984 type post of 2018....almost snowflake like......lollollollol

We may finish somewhere similar this year, but at that point of that season we were still poo. Was the point.

You've conceded that there gonna do it then?

 

[davek]

You've conceded that there gonna do it then?

Yes.

It's done.

 

[daza_1973]

We may finish somewhere similar this year, but at that point of that season we were still poo. Was the point.

But back then we were still buzzing of the kanchelsiks derby at the pit.

Well, well, well.
