"THE biting wind from the North Sea, the plastic bucket seats, rusty corrugated iron and the most unappealing hot dogs you’ve ever seen in your life. "

He should have got a cheeseburger.

Christ, what a Lawro!

Lawro's a 'lovely lovely person' too.

journalists are rarfs!!!

I would say the national ones are.

of course

Or the comments by the commentator about ...'Hartlepool, the home of Peter Mandelson and Middlesbroughs' Andy Capp' ...... I kid you not.

I heard that too. He said Hartlepool, the home of Andy Capp, who was of course a Middlesbrough lad. WTF!

come on uncle ken, you banned the mail and the echo for less ban the nationals!

do they award diplomas for being a rarf?

... and the IRRITATING continual references to the 'brilliance' of Scott Parker

Howay Phil, 'Scotty' is only used by his chums, we are mere mortals. He was getting more respect than Mother Teresa.

Scooty Parker more like

He was that good I didn't even notice he was playing

If you are THE Aiden Magee who covered the game yesterday for the papers, you are typicalof the lazy journalists that cover games up here, your references to what you consider 'little' Hartlepool are quite pathetic. You must be gutted you didnt get to cover a 'big game' Your report is currently doing the rounds on the Pools forums and I suggest that if you dont want an unnappatising hot-dog shoved up your bucketseat, you never venture this far up again!!!

I wonder if he will be demoted for his mistakes?




Edit: The ref I mean, not Adian Magee.

It was just lazy, patronising and totally unnecessary - but then it's only whaat we would expect from a southern hack!!

Me also, in summery I hope the seats gave you piles, the cold wind off the North sea gives you flu and the hot dogs gave you the shits.

Middlesborough's Andy Capp, I shouted at the telly at that point. Reg Smythe, Belmont Gardens and the Causeway (at least once).

What have you been told about shouting at the telly??

Eh?? Eh??

Anyway, 'rusty corrugated iron??' They must have installed that sometime in the last two years. Crumbling concrete yeah, but rusty corrugated iron??

Goon.

Only pretend "journalists" like yourself.

We'll discuss this further upon your return to work.

I hope its the right one...

sent him this

Wonder which football club you went too (was it really Hartlepool United).

Knobs like you are the pure reason why I sometimes feel more connected to the North of our country than the South.

I sometimes feel the border should've been drawn across the Humber estuary and not at the Tweed.

Or to put it another way you are a grade one southern nonce and the epitome of everything thats bad about sports journalism...

At least Mr Zola had the good sense to treat us with the respect we deserved .



Wanted to say you're supposed to eat the hotdog not shove it up your arse you big southern puff but I thought that to be too homophobic..

screws of the world a second rate chip wrapper,hopefully it will be cut into squares and hanging on the back of some kharzi door waiting to be used,probably upset with it being a seaside town he was expecting prawn sandwiches and not hotdogs

Who can blame outsiders getting the wrong impression of the town, especially when the TV camera pans on to a young teenage Pools fan carefully gobbing between his trainers?

Class.

What is this hang up with southerners? Everyone south of Leicester is a 'cockney' and this obsession with 'Cockneys' looking down on us is pure chip on shoulder bollox. If you want patronising, you've only got to go 10 miles down the road to the borers and they'll look down on you and patronise you by the barrow load.
I take as I find and generally speaking, people down south are no different to people anywhere else in the country.

and its the wrong Aidan Magee....... got a reply from the guy telling me so!!

well he would say that wouldn't he...

hasn't got the balls to stand up and defend what he wrote!
