  1. I miss living at Heaton. Heaton > Hart. Like. I miss being 20 tbh. I get the sentiment like.
  2. He's been knobbing a lass from Heaton and blatantly wants to play up here for us. ITK. She's called Susan and he's called Carlos apparently. That's what I've heard.
  3. Who the fuck voted? Bloody Hell http://www.pubsnewcastle.co.uk/BestBarNone.html Apparently the best three "bars" in Newcastle are Shearer's, the Quilted Camel and Yates's. bluelaugh.gif Not a fucking PATCH on the Union Rooms... Union Rooms is shite. Bouncers and bar staff ID you constantly, place stinks of piss, drinks taste like piss and generally the place reminds me of piss. Go round the corner to O'Neill's. So you don't like it then?
  4. Can't see what the problem is with either of the clauses tbh. We paid way over the odds for Owen and getting £9m for a bloke with just 2 years left on his contract is decent business imo. (straight-line depreciation etc...) We paid way over the odds for Urberfemi and turning a £3m profit in 11 months represents good value and a good move on behalf of Shepherd. If we lose both then fair enough - they don't want to be here. Fuck 'em. Don't want to see anybody at the club who doesn't want to play for NUFC. Money in the bank > unhappy player.

    The New Anfield.

    That's a first plan from years ago that got knocked back they're gonna release the final design soon. correct, they have changed it, and increesed the capacity to 70 thousand. The kop stand holding 20 thousand... ...plus however many storm the turnstiles.
  7. Just a bit too young to recall that one but I do remember sitting in front of the telly being mesmerised at the Quarter Final between France and Brazil in Mexico '86. Game finished 1-1 and the frogs won on pens. Platini was the best in the world at that time, bar none. Great team, great game. That was a fantastic game too like and I almost mentioned it in my post. The Brazil side had some of the '82 side but they were past their peak a bit. Platini was fantastic at the time and had been two years earlier in the Euro Championships when he guided them to victory. I'm going to have to pull you up though as Maradona was better at the time. How could you forget him in '86 man? I relent, Maradona was the best at that time but Platini was a very close second. I think France were just about the best team of that era but Maradona was sensational and won that World Cup virtually single-handedly Both top, top players. Aye, France beaten in the semis by the Jormans just like they were four years earlier. In '82 the final should have been Brazil v France and the Frogs were unlucky to be so drained from that quarter against Brazil in '86 too. They could have easily won both tournaments with the players they had. Especially in midfield. I loved Platini like. Did you know he was top scorer in Serie A three years running at around that time whilst at Juventus? Some achievement for a midfielder even if he did take all the free-kicks/penalties. I knew he took the pens like and always seemed like Robson with a boat-load of skill. Arriving late in the box to finish moves off. How old are you again? You must have a few years on me if you can still remember details of '82. I can remember bits and pieces of '82 but '86 was the first World Cup I can remember.

  9. Shift the little fat bastard asap. Looked good at Spurs for a couple of seasons but he's clearly wank and we need better.

    The New Anfield.

    Quite like the design in the OP. At first glance it looks a bit odd but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Would certainly make a change from the dogshit designs of the SoS, Pride Park, Riverside, JJB etc. A bit like the Guggenheim in Bilbao.
  12. Canny player but always struck me as being soft as shit. Would never cope with the physical nature of our league. He'd get kicked to shit every weekend and we're best of targeting someone else tbh.
  13. blueyes.gif This makes me like Barca even more. The contrast between the 2 giants of spanish football is ridiculous.

    friendlies

    It's spelt 'Thanks', mate. He used his elbows man.
  15. Would be an excellent signing who could fill a few positions if needed. To get him for nowt is just a bonus.
  16. Have a look at these lists and tell me who you'd sooner have.... Barton, Viduka, Rozehnal, Beye. or.... Gattuso, Ashton, Andrade, Miguel. Three of those would be coming only for the money at this stage. I don't want that. Exactly. The right player at the right price for the right reasons. Allardyce should be targetting the best talent in Europe. Preferably young but definitely hungry. blueyes.gif

    Kieron Dyer: ability to run quickly = 85% ability to run for a long time = 75% ability to pass a football = 15% ability to tackle = 5% ability to finish chances = 10% ability to head a ball = 2% ability to deliver a key pass 10% ability to cross a ball = 10% ability to hold the ball up = 15% ability to track his man back = 5% Well worth his £80,000 a week...
  19. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_Sports_Investment Abramovich is rumoured to have a 15% stake in MSI, that really would be a conflict of interest if the owner of Chelsea was also the co-owner of somebody playing for the opposition although is that not what happens when a player is on loan anyway? Can open. Worms all'ower.
  20. That's what I mean! This is why I think Sheff Utd may yet still have a chance to stay up. Something's not right about the whole Tevez thing. Either they own him and they signed him legit or they didn't and they should lose points over it. Who the fuck do you make the cheque payable to?
  21. This is all I've found so far: http://sport.independent.co.uk/football/premiership/article2617382.ece Now the intention is to pair the two in a new-look strike-force with Carlos Tevez almost certain to leave the club once a fee is agreed with one of the clubs - primarily Real Madrid and Chelsea - who have registered an interest. It is thought that Tevez could cost as much as £32m. West Ham will not receive any of the transfer fee. So they apparently own him but won't get a penny if he's sold... Dodgy. As. Fuck.
  22. I agree, this compensation news has changed the picture a lot. For starters, we could buy a good player committed to Newcastle even before his transfer fee. We could and buy someone like Tevez, a young top class player with his whole career ahead of him. He should really now tell us exactly what his intentions are, although the silence says a lot. The club will know however, and if he wants to go they should actively seek to offload him asap safe in the knowledge that we haven't now lost so much money. That would be like every Christmas and Birthday coming at once, if Owen goes for £9 million and we get £10 million compensation then we could add another £5 million as a first bid. I've seen figures mentioned about him going for as much as £34 million but that seems way OTT. That's the thing that puzzles me. If a monster bid comes in for Tevez, who gets the money? Do West Ham actually own him? Was that ever cleared up? Suppose Real Madrid come in with £30m, will West Ham have that cash to spend? WHU get less than 10%. In that case there's a fucking rabbit away somewhere along the line...

    Is that a bit like anthrax of the eyes?
  25. "Now listen here. I'm rich enough to pay your wages for the next 2 years of your life AND sign someone better than you to take your place. So you've got a choice. You either decide if you want to stay or go in the next 3 seconds or I'll make the fucking decision for you. You'll train with the youth's every day for the rest of your contract and I can guarantee you'll not kick a ball in anger for the next 2 years. Now what's it to be?" M. Ashley to Owen.
