Icelands population
|
Really sick of people banging on about Icelands population. Newcastles population is less than 300,000 and they had Brian Robson, Steve Bruce, Peter Beardsley, Chris Waddle, Paul Gascoigne and Alan Shearer playing in the top flight around 1990. You only need to produce 11 players. Even one good player can make a difference. If population mattered India and China would be the best in the world. Every time Icelands population is mentioned they have to throw in some random place like Croydon to compare it to. It really grinds my gears.

Agree with the OP, it's a mostly irrelevant 'stat' that doesn't mean very much at all.

Really sick of people banging on about Icelands (sic) population. Bobby Moor was one of just handful of people who grew up in his house.

fucking to right bazz mate. its the same as all the divs who bang on about how clever steven hawkwind is. cunt couldn't go out dancing or on the pull or even have a kick about so all he had to do with his time was sit dribble and think about the universe. any cunt could have come up with all that history of time crap if they didnt have a life. fucking boring speak and spell cunt.

despite newcastle being a dump - it does still have grass for the kids to play on. unlike most of iceland. maybe post-brexit newcastle should apply for independance from the UK?? they'd prob win the world cup.

Yes, but it wasn't just about the best players on Monday, it was more to do with pride and hard work, and exactly the opposite from our team!

Robson from Chester Le Street
Beardsley from Hexham so not even Durham let alone Newcastle
Waddle and Gascoigne from Gateshead
So you need the greater Newcastle Urban area which is about 1m people
