Christmas No.1 for Newcastle United fans? (Have a listen…)

NUST making some noise...
NUST making some noise...
No, not top spot in the league, although that’s hopefully looking like a good bet at the moment. I’m talking about music (finally a relevant musical reference in my headline!). Love ’em or loathe ’em, though the latter I know seems to be more fitting for most on .org, NUST continue their quest to bring ownership of Newcastle United to the fans, and this time they’ve taken to the recording studio for it.

‘The Steady Boys launch their new single “Yes We Can – The Terrace Song”. All proceeds are split between NUST and the Royal British Legion. The track will be available to download from iTunes soon and the CD will be available in record shops.’

Here’s a sneak preview of it though in the meantime.

So will it pip Geordie Joe (come on, it’s inevitable isn’t it?) and his single to Christmas No.1?

  2. First, NUST claimed to have raised £20 million in pledges, then, apparently it was more like ten. Now NUST spokesman, Mack Jensen says:

    “We cannot confirm how well it is doing financially”.

    “Due to financial obligations, we cannot confirm or deny the amount pledged already, but we can say it’s going well and we’re attracting serious players from the business world.

    “We also have a series of important meetings coming up this week which could help the campaign further.”

  3. I’ve always wondered what a guitar sounds like when played through an empty dog tin.
     
    Awful from what they’ve given us.  I hope this band isn’t around much longer to pollute the airwaves.

  5. ““Due to financial obligations, we cannot confirm or deny the amount pledged already, but we can say it’s going well and we’re attracting serious players from the business world.”
    Waaaahhhhh hahahahahahahah Wooooooohhohohohohohoooooooo Wahhhhh hahahahahahaaaaa

  11. It sounds more viable that we’d get promoted, Mike Ashley pumps £100million into the club, brings back Keegan with Shearer and buys Christiano Ronaldo and we beat every team in the league instead of the NUST having a proper plan. £20M is NOT the asking price – far from it. So who cares if they have £20million? On top of that, what about running costs, player’s wages, who has the final say on things, transfer money?

    In stead of this ludicrous campaign they should be marketing our club to prospective buyers who actually HAVE got the money and would do our club well.

  12. andy once the head of nust reaches 20 mill hes of to live abroad m8 taking the cash with him :lol:

  13. Haha that sounds about right Batty… I’m actually quite astonished though they aren’t doing what I suggested and trying to advertise the club to people who could actually sustain running it.

    It’s a pretty poor attitude to have in the sense of “we’d rather take it and be a damn lot poorer club with no transfer funds or means of sustainability than Ashley” to be fair.

  14. @AndyNUFC:  Nah, you know our luck.  I’ve got a feeling that NUST will get the money for the club, buy it and will (in a few years time) see us winning the Conference.

    “stardust how come u have voted 50 times for fat fred”

    LOL batty.

    Believe it or not, myself, Deb and Stardust are not the only Geordies who don’t like being referred to as “mugs” and “dogs” by a racist who like lesbians in handcuffs and completely shagged the club financially to fill his and wee Dougie’s bank accounts.

    Give you bairn my best wishes BTW. All the best to him. 

  21. Wow! 

    What a performance eh?  Is this the next Christmas number 1?

    Or…. maybe we’ll see ’em buskin in the Metro…. ’til they’re moved on!!

  23. Well I put my name down with the “Yes we can” lot to express interest – and I can understand how they don’t know all the financial amounts. So far I haven’t been asked for any money or even how much I am prepared to pledge – so they won’t be going off on Caribbean cruises with £20 million like some tossers on this blog seem to suggest.
    I don’t know whether this is a goer or not – but I’m prepared to give them a shot. At least the people who are signing seem to care about the club – unlike some others who think they are clever if they just  stand at the side and shower everyone with their cynicism, sarcasm and (only very rarely) wit.
    I’ve lost money on this club before – share issues, season tickets in advance etc. – so if I lose money (a small amount by the sound of it) again – so be it. It’s my decision,not anybody else’s and taken because I love this club – made without any false hopes or stardust (!) in my eyes.
    For those of you who prefer to hear Llambias’s infrequent, untruthful and downright ignorant burblings – that’s your choice.

  27. Magpie6699 that was deep man! Batty, not like you to beat round the bush like that man, losing your touch?

  29. Andy “I’m actually quite astonished though they aren’t doing what I suggested and trying to advertise the club to people who could actually sustain running it.” Because they are making it up as they go along Andy and a sophisticated investor would tear them apart.

    One word of warning for all be careful how the structure is brought together. There are mechanisms that can be used for major investors to buy out minor investors for peanuts in loss making organisations.

  30. Batty – youre on for the day fella.
     
    I read about your son on the other thread fella- ive been away and out of action for a few days – hope it all goes well fella.

    “One word of warning for all be careful how the structure is brought together. There are mechanisms that can be used for major investors to buy out minor investors for peanuts in loss making organisations.”

    That is a very good point.

  37. batty – you started with the sarcasm, insults and snotty language – and now you continue with them. I just get fired up when people call others names. Just because I have a different view or choose to wait to hear what might happen with the NUST campaign doesn’t make me thick, a fool or a “pleb”. I happen to be articulate and intelillgr….intilgen….clever!

  38. magpie6699 i started with sarcasm, yes but you started with the insults  have u got memory loss as well

  41. lol Batty at 33 – to be fair Magpie -the fund raisers are aiming for people like yourself – quite wrongly – and they have now changed their language to stop them getting into legal hot water.
     
    No one should do a thing, nor register, or commit, or even pay any notice of them until they provide their document. The way they have went about this is wrong in every sense and morally corrupt.
     
    Wait until the real beneficiaries emerge from the shadows………………..

  42. Excellent stuff !!
    This is what supporting your team is all about.
    These are young lads that have actually put pen to paper, spent alot of time and effort, and attempting to do something to raise money to save the football club they love.
    What is NOT to like about that ?

  43. Thump how about you come up wth something better? … cant be bothered??.. cant play an instrument????
    shut your trap then…

  45. I agree with tony – seen the steady boys play live a couple of times and to have these guys on board is a real boost for the club if nothing else. I don’t think this song is there strongest by any means but the clip being played is just the beggining of it and you are really judging a book by its cover unless you have heard it in its entirety, or maybe some of you lot just don’t like the sound of a football crowd (oh jesus don’t say you have forgot that sound already).
    I’m sure some of you are brought up to argue and go against everything in life and would rather see Newcastle United get deeper and deeper in the shit, just so you can chase your own tails and cry ‘I told you so’ at the end of it as if you have proven some kind of neanderthal point, but I am behind anyone that puts the effort in to better the club.
     
    WELL DONE THE STEADY BOYS

  46. Snipe if you like but you sound like a bunch of 15 year old girls.  Each to their own & personally I LOVE this!  I’ve heard it in it’s entirety & am definitely going to buy it.  Each to their own musically but although I love Busker’s Home Newcastle I prefer this, I hate that damn Local Hero tune that’s blasted all the time with a vengeance – no this one is my kind of stuff & i’m sure i’m not alone. 

    Instead of falling into defaut ‘let’s just bitch’ mode why don’t you appreciate this & these lads for their contribution & support. 

    Go on The Steady Boys!!

  52. Yes Batty we all need to be just like you and we really need to stop being lazy.
    We all need to spend all our lives typing on internet threads with an action man  pigeon chest pumped out to show how hard we are. We all really need to try harder to use the anonymous mask of the internet just like you.

    We should all be as proud as you are to spend all your life typing on threads and go the extra mile and join up and get a little icon pic just to prove how dedicated we are.
    Why would any of us want to go and spend money to see our team play when we can sit on a pc typing into it and save the club that way.

    Batty you are an inspiration to us all, we need to know the secret of how to be YOU !!
    ‘Batty boy’ don’t hold back on us now, give us the secret. We all need to follow Batty, forget about Newcastle United and the soldiers we have more important things to do, we need to all sit here and type dribbling nonsense each and every day to fall in line with Batty Boy Wonder there!!!!

    LETS HEAR IT FOR BATTY BOY!!!  (the biggest prick on this planet)

  53. LMAO,  Ray – Nail on head mate. But I bet his mummy is so proud of him and tells all his aunties down the bingo how young batty is now the king cyber warrior of an internet forum. I noticed how he always appears to be logged on as he pounces on every entry within a very short time. I bet he has a ‘real’ job.
    :-)

  54. RAY  you got it wrong there fella i could be the 3rd biggest prick on the planet behind u and your  side kick arse wipe stu  and as for typing on threads this is the only 1 i use so jog on half wit

  57. well done batty, you managed to hold on for over an hour before replying that time, bet you almost chewed your fingers off with frustration whilst trying to prove that point matey boy.
    So this is the only thread you type on is it ?
    how come nearly every link on the ‘recent comments’ section (above right) leads to yet another THREAD with your dribbling little inputs spread all over them too ?  all day every day and you have the nerve to call others lazy
    get a job ffs or go train spotting

  58. batty’s never worked since – ali lost the title – but then again he’s developed club feet through running a catalogue for the past 20 odd years , so he carnt…..but he thoroughly enjoys train spotting and looking through people’s letter boxes.

    …he’s a nice lad really.

  59. Hurry hurry Batty boy !!   Come on my lil cyber puppet, no time for tea. I can just sense the absolute anger boiling up inside your underdeveloped brain as you ask yourself
    1) shall I reply now and regain my rightful place as king of the cyber land
    Or
    2) Shall I wait a bit longer and give the impression I am not really addicted and actually have a life
    Or
    3) If I don’t answered it means he has won this cyber war and defeated me
    Or
    4) If I do answer it means he has still won this cyber war by proving I can not resist


    Dilemma dilemma Batty Boy !!!!     A word of advice Batty, use a rope it is less messy for those that have to clean up after you

    :-)

  60. hahaha , no time for tea you say…batty could scran you for breakfast lad.

  65.  A word of advice Batty, use a rope it is less messy for those that have to clean up after you  <<<<< stu  you must be thinking off it your self to come oot with shite like that divent do it kid it could be worse your mam could have been a mackem as well as your dad 

  67. option 4 ?
    :-)
     
    hmmmm ok lets work it out shall we…..
    Erm …. you are a trained top gun helicopter pilot and retired astronaut ? Oh and you also have £20,000,000,000 in the bank but you just do this cyber warrior thing to kill your days while you sit at your private Olympic size swimming pool in one of your 23 sun soaked mansions, as you sip butler drip fed cocktails and listen to kajagoogoo on your super surround sound concert hall style garden system. You have the body of a greek god and have slept with every super model on the planet ?

  83. In my opinion I think the song very much embraces the idea of football related violence; this is not something i’ve ever understood or can advocate and for those reasons I do not like it. I am aware that a lot of people do however support this type of thing – each to their own. What do you think of their song? All I know from our end is that we wanted to write a song in support of our favourite club. Presuming that you are a Newcastle fan, can you not support that idea?

  85. joe ive heard ur song all the way through and its quite good kid  and ide support owt what would better the club as for that song from the stoke fans there doing a lot too try to learn kids to keep oot of trouble m8 in them days you could have a good fight then be mates the next day and what i sed aboot u lot it was for bites kid

  87. I’m sure it will be one of the most elating experiences of my life……I’m absolutely sure I only know one person called Batty though!

  91. Sorry Batty mate. I just did it for ‘bites’ – and it definitely worked. I also look forward to hearing your latest release….

  94. But I do have a job Batty. Looking at your midweek posting times implies that you are desparately searching for something to do between The Jeremy Kyle Show ending and The Paul O’Grady Show starting besides masturbating furiously. You won’t win in an argument with me, so I suggest you don’t even try. See! I don’t even have to resort to childish name calling or anything! I wish you all the best through this festive season and hope that the new year will bring you a more mature way of approaching matters.

  96. Oh while we are being open, I think “Paul R Excilled Toon in Barnsley” is a SHIT name. But that is just my opinion too
