You expect an England manager to sort his game out in 2 training sessions, where Newcastle managers haven't been able to do it in thousands?

KaKa told me that it was all down to Martins' motivational skills, not Keegan's.

If Taylor's in then I might be too.

In what sense is that the right word?

I believed the story until you mentioned we weren't signing Carrick.

Former Bury youth keeper.

I've had that feeling too. Maybe the stories about him "moving upstairs" isnt totally wrong, maybe Ashley convinced him to come and offered to help him with his circus or something like that. I would actually want that, Keegan onboard but maybe not as a manager. Please dont shoot me now.. SHHHHEEEEAAAAARRRREEEERRRR ()

Butt was easily our best midfielder last night. I think we'd get completely over-run wuth N'Zogbia in there, along with the 3 up front. Butt had a point to prove, he'll never play that well again in the rest of his career imo. Even so, you're basically saying we should play 4 up front, even after seeing Geremi and Barton last night?? 4? No 3. I'd like to see it, hammer a few teams with it at home, the ones who sit back and hope for a point, then when we get some goals in we revert to 442 and tighten up ourselves. A lot of teams will be playing for the draw coming to SJP, and we really need the points. It might backfire, but then again anything and everything we do tends too anyway. If you play Martins, Viduka and Owen, where exactly are you playing N'Zogbia? He's not exactly the type of player to protect the back four is he? (same can be said about both Geremi and Barton). If you're going to play N'Zogbia in midfield, Butt needs to be there too.

Aye, even harder to say how he will be if he does no get a chance though.. He was awful for Preston, and it's not as if we manage to put loads of chances through to our strikers.

I think he'd be a good signing - it's not like Man United actually want rid of him either.

He'd be backup to Enrique anyway, so he'd never come.

Yep, agree with that. I just can't understand why he can't beat players now. I'm sure I remember him doing it at Citeh?

Is every post you make going to be Owen bashing, you tedious little man? If I knew the quick code for "clap", that's what I'd post.

If there was a league table for away fans, we'd be pushing for the title. Very proud of the lads who follow us away.

Nope. He was angry that he was taken off.

Stick him up front instead of Viduka. Just play him alongside Owen. Hardly rocket science. Yes but it would still disrupt the team more than has to be done with a straight position for position swap. Posting from your mobile again Kev?

Good enough to be on the bench for Birmingham. He's not Torres!

See, the problem now is when we lose this, that decision will look to be vital. Viduka is dead on his feet. What exactly is he offering now?

Well done Sam, great decision again. Oh wait..

Martins coming off? Well well...

It's the Newcastle way. Robert, Emre, Geremi; all shit. Fucking hell. Awesome player. Shit at corners.

Isn't that a sending off offence though?
