Keegan actually resigned several times at Newcastle he was talked out of most or given promises.

Hopefully me too without a hangover

Nasa's New Horizons: Excitement ahead of Ultima Thule flyby 1 hour ago History will be made on Tuesday when Nasa's New Horizons probe sweeps past the icy world known as Ultima Thule. Occurring some 6.5 billion km (4 billion miles) from Earth, the flyby will set a new record for the most distant ever exploration of a Solar System object by a spacecraft. New Horizons will gather a swathe of images and other data over the course of just a few hours leading up to and beyond the closest approach. This is timed for 05:33 GMT. At that moment, the probe will be about 3,500km from Ultima's surface and moving at 14km/s.

@Panna King:-

Lol, with SAF in charge of United and what he had won before the 97/98 season I don't think you could call United bottlers and remember the famous treble after the 97/98 season where we won nothing, 1998/99 we made up for that barren season and won the League, European Cup & FA Cup, not bad for bottlers if you could call them that.

Great chance for India to win a Test series in Australia hope they don't choke

We couldn't hang on to away leads basically. We did lose to Man Utd twice after amassing the lead which swung it somewhat. We blew a lead at Man City to draw 3-3, then we lost away at West Ham and Arsenal. The lead was down to nothing by the end of March then came 2 famous fixtures. Liverpool beat us 4-3 at Anfield after we led 2-1 and 3-2 with Collymore scoring the winner at the death. A couple of weeks later we went to Blackburn, we were 1-0 up then with 3 minutes to go, a Geordie lad called Graham Fenton scored twice for Blackburn. Fans never forgave him and whenever he was seen back in Newcastle he would receive abuse on the street for fucking his home town team over. After that we won a few games but Man Utd just wouldn't falter, that's when Keegan cracked with 2 games to go and had his love it if we beat them rant.

An entire session rained out, then the clouds doth parted and the Indians rejoiced! My Aussie team for the final match would be. Harris Burns Khawaja Head Wade Maxwell Paine Cummins Starc Lyon Hazlewood Finch and the swamps out, Maxwell (who should have played Melbourne) and the 2 form batsmen in Wade and Burns in. Burns should be in anyway. They won't bring Wade in though because if he's in people might realise how useless Paine is. And if I were an Indian selector R Sharma Agarwal Pujara Kohli Rahane Pant Ashwin Sir RAJ Shami I Sharma Bumrah No need for 7 specialist batsmen. Spin em out, and if anyone can score a ton, the Aussies won't be able to out bat them.

I don't even care if it's bad defending... that Firmino goal might be my favourite of the season so far. I'm pretty sure the celebration in the stadium was particularly loud too. https://streamable.com/s/y1r6x What about Alisson's pass here leading to the first penalty call? What's with Brazilian goalies and distribution these days by the way? Ali and Ederson in a league of their own in that aspect.

If you win the league, put me in a fucking coma

Mourinho's heavy outlay was supposed to deliver a league title in the first couple of years. A Europa League and League Cup together with the dull, defensive football didn't cut it for most sane United fans. And rightly so after what they've been used to. Ok, it's two trophies but they're 4th and 5th in terms of priorities for United fans.

2019 key spaceflight events January NASA's New Horizons spacecraft conducts flyby of Ultima Thule - The New Horizons probe was designed to study Pluto. But after its successful rendezvous with the dwarf planet in 2015, the craft continued speeding along into the Kuiper Belt, a debris-filled region of the solar system beyond the orbit of Neptune. Here, at a distance of about 4 billion miles from Earth, New Horizons will zoom past the icy object 2014 MU69, which is nicknamed Ultima Thule, on Jan. 1. The New Year's rendezvous will make Ultima the most distant object ever visited by a spacecraft. The first high-resolution images will arrive back on New Year’s Day, but it’ll take 20 months for all the data to be sent back to Earth. China becomes the first nation to land on the far side of the moon - On Dec. 7, China launched its robotic Chang'e 4 spacecraft on the world's first mission to the far side of the moon. The robotic lander and the rover being carried on the craft could touch down as early as Jan. 1 within the South Pole-Aitken basin, one of the moon's largest and oldest impact craters. The Chang'e 4 mission is a prelude to a successor robotic mission, Chang'e 5, which is designed to return lunar samples to Earth. SpaceX performs first test flight of new crew capsule - SpaceX has been developing its Crew Dragon capsule as a replacement for NASA's space shuttles, which were retired in 2011. The new craft is designed to ferry up to seven astronauts to and from the International Space Station, ending NASA's reliance on Russia's Soyuz capsules. During its first uncrewed test flight, which is scheduled for Jan. 17, the capsule will launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, dock with the space station and then return to Earth, splashing down in the Atlantic Ocean If it's successful, the Crew Dragon's first test flight with astronauts aboard will follow later in the year. Israel launches its first spacecraft to the moon - Sometime in the first quarter of 2019, a Tel Aviv-based nonprofit called SpaceIL will launch a 1,322-pound lunar lander on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. After a two-month journey, the lander will touch down on the moon, with the earliest landing attempt pegged for Feb. 13. If successful, the mission would make SpaceIL the first private entity, and Israel the fourth country, ever to land on the moon. India launches its second mission to the moon - On Jan. 31, India's space agency will launch its second lunar mission, Chandrayaan-2, sending a robotic orbiter, lander and rover to the moon. Chandrayaan-2, which will touch down at the lunar south pole for the first time in history, will study the moon's mineral content and its topography. India's first lunar mission, Chandrayaan-1, launched in October 2008. That mission found evidence of water ice on the moon's surface. February British startup launches first set of satellites for all-Earth internet - Sometime in February, a London-based startup called OneWeb will launch the first 10 satellites of what ultimately will be a fleet of 600 telecommunications satellites designed to provide high-speed internet service to every part of the world. The satellites will launch aboard an Arianespace Soyuz rocket from the Guiana Space Centre in French Guiana. NASA's InSight lander begins drilling into the surface of Mars - it'll hammer sensors up to five meters (16 feet) into the ground to measure the temperature inside the Red Planet. March Boeing conducts first test flight of its CST-100 Starliner capsule - Like SpaceX, Boeing is developing a space capsule to replace NASA's retired space shuttle fleet. Sometime in March, Its CST-100 Starliner will take its maiden flight aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, with the uncrewed capsule docking with the space station before parachuting back to Earth. If the test is successful, Boeing could conduct crewed test flights of the Starliner in August. SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket returns to space - SpaceX's Falcon Heavy booster completed its maiden launch on Feb. 6, 2018, lifting off from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, and launching a Tesla Roadster into space. On its second flight, which is planned for early in 2019, the huge rocket will carry 25 individual payloads for the U.S. military and NASA, including weather satellites and a space radiation experiment. April NASA's $1.5 billion solar probe zooms past the sun - NASA's Parker Solar Probe (PSP) already broke the record for the fastest human-made object. On November 5, 2018, it flew past the sun at more than 212,000 mph — nearly 120 miles per second (3.3 times as fast as the Juno spacecraft at Jupiter). That's fast enough to fly from New York to Tokyo in less than a minute. But PSP will make two more flybys this year, each closer to the sun and slightly faster than the one before it. The goal is to crack two 60-year-old mysteries: why the sun has a solar wind and dangerous mass ejections of particles, and how the corona — the star's outer atmosphere — can heat up to millions of degrees (about 100 times as hot as the sun's surface temperature). SpaceX performs a test flight of its Starship vehicle, intended to one day take humans to Mars May Richard Branson’s Virgin Orbit company sends its first rocket to space June SpaceX launches first crewed test flight of its Crew Dragon capsule - If the uncrewed test flight of SpaceX's Crew Dragon is successful, the craft will return to space with two spaceflyers aboard. NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken will fly Crew Dragon to the space station. Blue Origin performs its first crewed flight July China conducts first test of next-generation crewed spacecraft - China is expected to test the successor to its crewed Shenzhou spacecraft sometime in mid-2019, but a detailed timeline of the mission hasn't yet been revealed. The nation plans to conduct a test launch of a vehicle it calls the New Generation Manned Spacecraft sometime in mid-2019. The test won't send up any people, but eventually China wants to use the vehicle to ferry four to six taikonauts into orbit. September NASA’s OSIRIS-Rex spacecraft swoops down to the surface of the asteroid Bennu in September and tries to collect a sample October A new planet-hunting mission from ESA launches between October 15 and November 14 - It’s called CHEOPS (Characterising Exoplanets Satellite), and it’ll look for planets orbiting bright stars close to our Solar System. December China launches sample-return mission to the moon - After its Chang'e 4 mission to the lunar far side, China will attempt an even more ambitious lunar mission sometime toward the end of the year. Chang'e 5 will include a lander designed to collect samples of lunar rocks and soil and return them to Earth. If successful, it would be the first time materials from the moon will have been brought back to Earth since 1976.
