Bargepole time.

Thought Reading would have given them a bit of a game. Sadly not.

I prefer LOLerpool.

Enrique, Harper, Krul, S Taylor, Coloccini, Guthrie, Barton, Gutierrez, Shola, Lovenkrands, Ranger would be part of NUFC 2010/11 That leaves another 15 players to find to complete a decent PL squad. Kadar, Simpson, Smith, Nolan could be another 4 but even then we'll need another full team to stand a chance of staying up next year.

Proof he knows he's on the way out, more like tbh. Forget 'This is Anfield'. 'Sell to Buy' seems much better.

Scrappy, nervous 2-1 win. Late winner perhaps.

This is ridiculous. Getting to the point where you may as well not bother making any arrangements to travel to games in advance. It means more oney for the club and more people will get to see it obviously but there needs to be a minimum time limit where games can't be moved.

Long way behind City and the other 3 in the League. Out of the CL. Out of the FA Cup. Out of the League Cup. Can't string more than a couple of results together. More injuries to Torres and Twatface tonight. Director's resigning. Losing money hand over fist. Home crowd booing the shit out of them. Writing's on the wall imo. Get the fuck in.

Fantastic stuff. Listen to those boo's.

You fucking beauty.

I can still see Mills just losing it and kicking him straight in the shins.

Originally wanted us to play the kids but I've changed my mind. They've had a rest and they now need a game with no pressure on it.

If it all goes according to plan the chances are the standard of football will get even worse the nearer we get to promotion. We all know how cautious Hughton is now - can you imagine how defensive and long-ball we're going to be when the pressure's really on to get some results? Barton's got the ability to improve the way we play if he's used properly. Sadly, I don't think he'll be given the chance to by Hughton.

Smacks of DJ Campbell all over again. Or Freddy Eastwood. Or Ebanks-Blake. Or David Nugent. Fuck it, the longer this goes the more suspicious I get.

I think Ronaldo is the most argumentative fucker ever to log on to N-O. He's also right quite a bit of the time btw.

so rafa finally in touch with reality Bit of a turn around from this http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009/nov/17/rafael-benitez-liverpool-fernando-torres City are shitting money. They'll take them both if they've got any sense. £100m for the pair.

Don't believe for a single second we were ever 'off the market'. He's still desperate to sell and always has been for months and months.

Would be a travesty if the little wanker is in the squad. Thankfully Capello has got his head screwed on and won't pander to the media and pick him on reputation. Only way he'll get to South Africa is as a pundit for the Beeb.

100% As for this thread, hopefully the horror of relegation has wiped all twattery from our squad(excluding Barton & Caroolll) and we start doing things right agreed. whatever people say about shearer as manager, i do believe he was hell bent on correcting the deep issues that we have behind the scenes/ Said at the time we needed someone to rip the club apart and build it up again from scratch. I think Shearer, given enough time and backing, would have done this. All academic now obviously like. We didn't go down that route and we are where we are.

Portsmouth, Hull and Burnley. Burnley will go with a struggle but the other 2 will just fade away.

On right now actually. Unreal, i watched them scraping all manner of shite off the stands/surrounding area i would love to think if we had a home game it would be the same, they were fantastic Although the way it's going they probably wish they hadn't fucking bothered...

Running your contract down is the sensible thing to do in his position. It's what I'd do, and I don't blame him one bit for hanging fire and waiting til the summer.

Not sure about that. He'd want a 3 year deal at £30k a week and would have a resale value of zero. Beckford would want less and we'd almost certainly get some money back when we sold him. Not particularly enthusistic about either tttt.

Some people are only ever happy when they've got something to be miserable about. Fact.

On right now actually.
