I don't live in pboro

Crowland was where an only king of England was crowned

But since then I have moved to a more upmarket part of the Fens

Explain the username and your reasoning in comparing 'Crowland' to the City of Newcastle Upon Tyne.

I once lived in pboro

And ran a team called pnoromags
But that was over 20 years ago

Northern rock went bust putting many families in trouble
And the great Newcastle brown ale is made down south

If it wasn't for students I doubt Newcastle as a city would be on the map
Apart from stag dos and unis it ain't got a lot going for it

No big business any way
Hence no local sponsorship anymoren

Mmmm the south has shafted the north east for many a year. I think we have done pretty damn well given the 'help' we've received from the government/south. The south east has thousands spent on it per person compared to the north east. Think of all the southern MPs who have stolen from the country through their expenses and second homes. Canary Wharf had a massive part to play in the crash, much, much more than Northern Rock. Our city and area is second to none, just ask people from the south that visit and they will tell you only positive things.

Let's hope his rush to get Carr out and use his contacts plays out well

I remember many on here. Itching like Pphuck when ash toyed with naming rights etc

He told us then that he wasn't going to bank roll the club

If you were earning £40,000+ per week and had a ridiculously long contract to run would you take a drop of 50% to play for a lesser club in a lower league. That is the problem Rafa has. He can't move the lesser players and can only get good deals for the better players. It's not rocket science Pboro, Ashley and Charnley have dug this club into a hole again and you are blaming Rafa for not getting them out of it.

In fact it's a 5hit hole

Which is why I moved

YOUR TOWN, that's some laugh. (it's a city if you didn't know). Any way you were born 1,000's of miles from Peterborough and I would imagine more than 95% of posters on here and on all of the boards were born nearer to Peterborough than you.

And what about all of the kings of Northumbria. There's three kings buried at Tynemouth Abbey for a start.
