If 1) Newcastle will win anything in my lifetime 2) Once we become accustomed to the success will Newcastle fans on the whole turn into Black and White versions of Man U fans and to a lesser extent chewsee fans who now seem to think it is their birthright to win stuff. And once we have nowt to complain about will the bbs survive, since whenever we have done reasonably well (win three games in a row) the board seems to get quiet like. It is now 5pm chicago time, I am off to school and will return at 6am t'morra at which time I will be able to wipe all the phlegm off me pc.

We're already turning into plastic fans....no more original songs, boo-ing the team, huge groups of people leaving early etc etc etc....

Don't see what can be done about it really.......I'll just keep doing what I've always done....

Syme.
1) How old are you? Do you have any history of medical illness in the family? Do you drink (to excess), smoke (to excess) or have a dangerous job (PR manager at SJP for example). Do your hobbies include Hang-gliding, parachuting, self-mutilation?
These things need to be taken into account before answering a question like that.
BTW, ITK might not see it out :-)

"will Newcastle fans on the whole turn into Black and White versions of Man U fans"

I doubt it...that would mean a massive loyalty shift en-masse...ya know...through wind and rain and the odd petrol shortage. However we do seem to be closely related if I'm to believe Gav's thread :-)

That is, closely related in the same manner as homo sapien and chimps?

How is the extra chromosome these days?
