what lad from dundee? Barry Robson. Celtic want him too though.

Hope we sign the lad from Dundee United, purely so someone else can take the corners.

Close? 9 foot over the bar.

It's interesting really. Another game without a single shot on goal. There's clearly something about the training we've been doing for the last 8 months. Even Derby manage more shots than us in games.

Can't see us scoring tbh

At least we know Big Sam won't be giving a team talk at half time, therefore a loss in the second half.

Yet you're not even watching the game. Right....

Failed a late fitness test.

2 days in charge mate, just remember that

Don't worry, we started like this against Stoke.

Yep, couple of corners and a few shots so far. We're obviously taking time to settle. EDIT: Especially N'Zogbia and Roz. Very very worried about this pairing tonight.

How shit are Bolton? There for the taking.

Chances of Bolton scoring within the first 5 minutes?

Francis?

How long played? -13 minutes. Keegan out!

Good luck mate. I'm in the same boat, but had Arsenal and Man United winning too. Would be just like Newcastle to let us down

How long played? By the way, I need Newcastle to win this to give me a £90 return from my £5 earlier

Yep.

Hope they didn't expect to get £6m for Kitson

In the last few days we've gone from a team who might get relegated under Sam to a team who can go out and buy the world's best players and challenge for a trophy. Keegan's good, but he ain't that good. Expectations have been raised a stupid amount following this appointment. Anyone seriously said we can get the world's best players and win trophies any time soon? Think thats the aim, not the expectation. I'm only going on what people are saying in other threads. We'll win 5-0 tomorrow too.

He's wrong naming them as one of the four he named, but generally I think European players would choose them over us, purely because of location.

Ferdinand was scoring for fun before he joined us. We tracked him for ages.

He's not that wrong tbh, blinkers off.

We were mullered by Monaco in the UEFA Cup. Doesnt disprove what youve just said, because iirc we had no strikers fit for the game and Lee/Beardo had to play up front whilst this was at a time when Gillespie was still out and hence the team was struggling due to an imbalance and a lack of depth. Im only mentioning it because its an example of how average our backline was, which is supposedly a myth. Keegan had gone by the time we played them. Left 3 months before didn't he? Henry was brilliant in that game.
