who are ya - mark 2

[toonlegend]

Anyone who has been here a while will remember Whitepointer and Nufcnutter as 2 of the most popular board members and moderators we have ever known..Sadly neither whitepointer nor Nutter are still here, both taken well before their time should have been up. Nutter first, on 9th June 2007 at the age of 32, and Whitepointer on 19th August 2014 at the age of 42.

Before NUFC Nutter became ill, he started the original “who are ya” thread that was so popular it amassed well over 400 posts. Unfortunately ,somewhere in the transition between forum hosts, the original disappeared.
We have decided in their honour, and as a way to remember them both, to start this new thread with them being the 1st entries by proxy.

Previous ones - PoolsBill, and another similar one, lost in the mists of time.
Age 72 Place of birth West Hartlepool (hence Pools.....) Parents from Gosforth and Whickham Family pretty much all from Tyneside or Northumberland.
Only seen the team play twice, live. Once at St James's years ago - when I think we put 5 past Norwich. Secondly against Blackburn at Ewood Park, when I remember Obafemi Martins looking fast, incisive, and yet totally ineffective, unfortunately. This also introduced my wife to something she'd never seen before. I might call it "tribal football". She'd never seen "hordes" of "uniformed" people marching down a road together, with the avowed intent of destroying the opposition. In the nicest, friendliest possible way, of course! And sharing a pint with them on the way!!
Likes. Well, before heart problems, then running, cycling, mountains (walking, scrambling, running)
Now: Vegetable growing, cooking and our lovely three German Shepherds.
Why OwdBill?
Dunno - maybe it's because I'm nearly ower as well as aad. Or just ower aad.
