just looked at the OP here "Joke Enrique" was another forum classic iirc. Thankfully Coloccini has proven me wrong and I am happy to retract and apologise for the above comment. I'm pretty sure it was said during or just after a match when I was almost certainly pissed and probably quite angry
-
Because there is no way that he is currently good enough??? And Johnson is? Well - yes. Johnson is a much better RB than Simpson. Have you ever actually seen Johnson play? He's f***ing s***! He's decent going forward but defensively he's an absolute disaster. Of course I've seen Johnson play. I think you would be in the minority if you continue to insist that Danny Simpson is better than Johnson. Remember that we are talking about Danny Simpson, who the majority of Newcastle fans were convinced was not good enough for the Premiership last season. He has played ok in the handful of games that he is played this season and you reckon he should now be playing England??? Where have i said that Danny Simpson is better than Glen Johnson? I'm not suggesting that Danny Simpson should be England's first choice right back. What I am suggesting is that given how shit Glen Johnson is, the prospect of Danny Simpson getting a call-up to the England squad is not all that unrealistic.

Fucking hell, the way people are going on you'd think he'd killed someone. Ok he punched another player, something he absolutely should not have done, but we know he's got a screw loose and he's not the first player to do something daft ona football pitch. Cantona, Keane, Shearer, Zidane, Rooney, Beckham - the list is endless.

I'd like to see us use two proper wingers now we've got two big strikers up top. It looked shite when we had Nolan playing as a second striker. I'm not saying it'd be any different now but it's definitely worth a try
-
Tuncay and Seb Larsson would sort us out I reckon, and I don't think they'd cost too much.
-
This is exactly why anti-football can be so effective - it's so difficult to defend against. How on earth are you going to replicate Delap-type throw-ins in training? I reckon having 4 massive fuckers at the back would go someway to nulifying their attacks but you've still got to try and score past them.

Glen Johnson is England's first choice right back FFS! Why is anyone remotely surprised that Simpson is being considered for a call-up
-
It's all gone a bit quiet on the new number 2 front. Any rumours doing the rounds? Ray Wilkins perhaps?
-
It's only one game and we played well in the 2nd half. Blackburn set up to stop us playing and they did that very effectively. Let's not panic just yet
-
We need to sort our home form out big time. Another game where we played well but came away with nothing. Something is definitely missing. I won't be surprised at all if we sign a right winger in January. Joeys been playing well there but he's Not the long term solution.

http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,43659.0.html His seventh signing You sign seven players you're bound to get a couple of good ones, especially for the prices paid. But the next most successful signing was Barton out of all those. Good transfer record? Beye was canny. Bit of a no-brainer though. He was already one of the top right-backs in Europe

What do I win?

Stockport County Northampton Town

Lazy journalism by ill-informed southern shit-peddlers. They're a fucking disgrace to their trade but the British media is full of them. Fuck the lot of em!
-
Not since the 4-4-2 formation and Hughton's suit we haven't
-
We seem to get linked with a lot of Scandinavian players but we never actually sign any of them Because Hughton presents the ideas to the board and Llambias always turns around and says "Nor-way" I'll get my coat...
-
I've always rated Crouch but I don't think he makes the most of his physical attributes. Carroll is a striker who plays to his strengths perfectly and I can only see him getting better and better

At least he bought Jose. That's one thing we can be thankful to the self-obsessed prick for. He never bloody played him. But if he hadn't signed him we wouldn't be benefiting from his brilliance now.
-
I think Crouch is technically better on the floor but Carroll is streets ahead when it comes to physicality and aerial ability. Crouch has decent skills and close control but he's weak as piss. Sheare was never the most skillful or tricky but he was a vastly better striker than Crouch could ever hope to be.
-
To be honest, I think Williamson is every bit as good as Cahill and Johnson. I think he needs a bit longer in the Premier League before he's worthy of a call-up but if he keeps playing as well as he has been, he should be in with a shout
