How about fashioning a new one out of the remains of the old one? It could have a a wooden base with silver plate to engrave the match results on and have a container with the broken bits of glass in it, ashes style. Then the signed football could go on top.

They were at The House Of Changing Rooms in Kidbrooke. But we all left & I believe Steve has the cup & that someone else (Matt?) has the shards from within.

If Gatesy had them then I would have stolen them to Scotland a long time ago!! Phillips had them last!

We won the match chaps. Let them keep our trophy for a bit. They must be hurting.

Listen. It's much like the Ashes. As many times as the Aussies win it, it never leaves England.

Now, let us not forget which side's supporters broke the tropy in the first place shall we? Luckily for you, we're not such sore losers. So we'll just keep it safe until you've grown up a bit. Which, judging from the Ashes example should be a few hundred years at lest.

We can make you a cheap facsimile to show off if you like? I have some tin foil and cardboard...

The replica trophy and the Shards/Smashes were in my house in London, it's true. The Shards/Smashes are in a box which I think says it contains curried rice.

They will have been taken by either Steve or Scotty - they certainly weren't left behind. (Unless they were thrown out in the excitement of the move-out, but I think everybody knew what they were, so that's enormously unlikely.)

How shallow are the north... I thought it was more than physical rewards...

I thought it was for the beauty of the game

I thought it was for honour

For respect....

but no... you bring it down to some broken heated sand...

So, new trophy anyone? I can encorpoarte the original trophy bits into itand get the engraving done etc. It will require Southern pikey's to cough up what's rightfully the North's though.

yeah cos that's EXACTLY how the conversation would have gone in reverse!

as soon as we whisper "4 - 1" at "the shards" they'll melt into a perfect facsimile of a pigeon anyhow. This can be done from wherever in the world! just point your phone at them and we'll sort out next year right here and now!

Right...so how come the cup was sat in our computer room for a year...IN GATESHEAD???
The greatest danger for most of us is not that our aim is to high and we miss it, but that it is too low and we reach it.

Clearly clearly not. We won it. When it was still semi whole (although it had been taped up again due to gatesy's carelessness).

It was only after Jamie very artfully decorated it with his poundland engraver that someone heartlessly smashed it.
