Chat / General Chat Forum / New to E4- Celebrity Hanging
|

Well, not quite. Not far off though
On E4 in the week beginning 30 January they will be broadcasting "live" death-defying stunts in a new series, Death Wish Live.
Dirty Tricks Jonathan Goodwin will be "Cheating the Gallows" - though if he survives the hanging he'll be buried alive.
The Pain Men Pritchard and Pancho will take part in Animal Attack, while Zamora the Torture King will have a nice relaxing lie down on a bed of nails while a truck drives over him. Pyro Boy will be setting himself on fire.
Alex Zane will present the live shows from a secret UK location, with a jury ensembled to pass comment on the nights proceedings. Obviously they won't actually die, but still what a shite idea for a programme. |

If we're recommending football books, I'd suggest Harry Pearson's "The Far Corner", which is all about north-east football. Club by club. He's a smoggie and he doesn't like us much, but even so it's a really good and funny read.
And "Football Against the Enemy" by Simon Kuper is brilliant.
Best book I've ever read is 'The Far Corner'. Always dig it out every few months and it always makes me laugh. A must for any N-E football fan. |

Where do you park when you come up from smogside?
I usually take the train up from Darlo mate, although there is a Vauxhall garage about 10 mins walk away from the ground where we occasionally go if we're going by car. usually avoids the queue. Prefer going up on the train though. |

Newcastle-Online Forum / NUFC Forum / Poor Martin Jol

The manager, not the poster
Tottenham boss Martin Jol has one complaint about working in England - the mocking of his brothers' names!
Jol says he is unhappy the way in which certain papers mocked the fact his two brothers are named Cock and Dick.
"My poor brother", Jol told the Observer. "He has to go around and introduce himself as Cornelius to everyone now.
"It's stupid. Cock is just a nickname in Holland, a short version of his name. I mean, what's so funny about that? It's his name and my other brother's name is Dick. This is normal in Holland."
