Anyone here with Northern Rock ~ I'd say get your money out quick ..... the FSA have expressed their "Full Confidence" in the company, a kiss of death if ever I heard one.
A representative of the FSA says they are responsible lenders but others say that Northern Rock has been lending up to 7 times income against inflated price properties. A 55% increase in lending in the past year is not "natural growth"

It's all going down the

A thought occurs .... can this be Berek's fault? We know him to be from the North East .... he has recently bought a football club ..... perhaps his withdrawal of funds from his piggy bank was the last straw.  whistle:

Now that Northern Rock has been nationalised it means that we poor taxpayers now sponsor both Newcastle United and Newcastle Falcons RU teams. Does this mean we could soon find ourselves mixing (I was going to say hob-nobbing but thought better of it) in the same company as Berek after the match?

Thats an insult I'll have you know, Berek is a Mackem fan. He worships at the Stadium of Shyte.  evil:

Yes, strange situation isn’t it? They also have some charitable trust which the government has pledged to keep on supporting…

The government is so shite at everything that a charitable trust I set up to support the homeless, etc. then Darling fucks up Northern Rock so the government has to give money to a charitable trust to step in where the government didn’t give enough money, etc. It’s like something out of The Cat in the Hat…  noooo:

Looking at Gordon and Darling (God that sounds like a lne from Blackadder) Cat isnt quite the word I'd have used although it does sound similar.








It doesnt matter how bizzare Dr Seuss got it could never have matched with this shower.  noooo:

More importantly does this mean that we can all wear a Cashmere Overcoat, with Velvet Collar, and sit in the Directors' Box with "models"  eyes:

Steady on Berek .... many more performances under Keegan and the Toon may well find themselves down there playing your lot. I think that was what was meant rather than that you could possibly be a Newcastle Supporter.
