[280106] 'walking along singing a song, walking in a robson wonderland'

It's funny... i was wondering whoever came up with the concept of reunion dinners? had a pretty interesting reunion dinner this year, ate it by myself.. yep... pathetic eh? after reunion dinner headed down to CHIJMES to watch NUFC vs Cheltenham at Carnaval's... quite a cosy bar by my standards... though i hear it's often packed to just standing room on the weekends and weekday nights...

Newcastle won 2-0 in the end, yipee.. but their manner of play still remain unconvinced and the twin terror in our defence, Bramble and Boumsong still doing what their doing best, giving away possession and like their namesake still scares the shit out of NUFC supporters by doing fanciful stuff on the edge of our penalty box... I think they must get a kick from scaring their fans... between the 2 of them, 13 million sterling pounds have been wasted... i could get alot better players than the 2 shitty defenders i see playing in the black and white week in and week out...

Chopra scored his first goal for the club so that was something to cheer about... though it was from benefitting from a defensive mix up rather than a chance he created or took.. but in our current predicament, cant be too fussy about how the goals are coming in, speaking of scrappy goals, Parker's goal was pure luck as the goal bounced off his shin to add the second.. hilarious... oh well... 2 goal lead... any hopes of a slaugter soon vaporised as time and again, we were exposed down the flanks and thanks to our twin terrors, their strikers had enough chances to actually bury us... it was only their lack of composure in front of goal that saved Souness's hide... if we're struggling against League One opponents when Boumsong's transfer fee alone would buy the opposition's team, it shows a lot regarding the state of the football club i love...

"There is no logical reason why Newcastle haven't won a major domestic trophy for more than 50 years," Williams said. "Success breeds success. I think it's much more difficult to break a cycle of success than it is to break a cycle of failure and Newcastle are a good example of that."
