  1. the thing that escapes you here laddie is that KK knows how to treat and manage footballers, and manage a good club, as he did the last time with the support from his board in respect of they backed him when he wanted to sign players and extend their contracts. This was the Liverpool way of doing things when Keegan was a player in fact, but don't let any blind support of the current board putting prudency before anything get in the way of common sense and putting correct value in your best players. Only the 2nd rate clubs behave like that. Oh dear, what have I just described. absolute tosh. the liverpool way was to keep everything indoors.
  2. and that is the killer.......good move gejon.
  3. Carr and Ramage aren't good enough iyam. who mentioned Carr and Ramage ? You meant Troisi? f****** hell mackems.gif errrr..........not quite. I mean't Woodgate, Modric, Owen, Zoggy and who knows to come .... then the penny may drop So long as the books are balanced and the club isn't in debt to the tune of 350m quid like Arsenal, double that of manure, and similar to Liverpool if their stadium plans go ahead....... Shame on the s**** boards they all have for accumulating so much debt eh mackems.gif they can afford their debt due to their earnings. oh fuck here we go again.
  4. KK deserves to be treated better than the way he is right now, maybe he let of steam because he thought it was justifed. What way is he being treated? If it's true that Vetere has removed and replaced one of KK's appointments without telling him (as suggested in the Telegraph) I think KK would have reason to believe that things need to be sorted out in the mooted 'clear-the-air' talks. As I said in the other thread, the Telegraph hinted at unrest between the hierachy. The Mail take it a step further by talking about conspiracy and apparent chaos, God knows what the Sun will say. TBH, I can see some similarity with Spurs at the start of the season just before the rumours about Jol going/Ramos coming started up in earnest. Just rumblings about unrest, not everyone pulling together, then MJ didn't have the complete support of the full first team squad, and so on. The truth of the matter is KK is not the man appointed by Wise (or Vetere). I may be wrong, I hope I am, but it wouldn't surprise me to see it start to get messy resulting in KK's departure and Wise bringing in the man he wants. FWIW, I don't believe for a minute that Wise actually wants to be the manager of NUFC. The only people Keegan brought to the club are Arthur Cox and Chris Hughton and both are still here. thats what i thought....the other fellah was a hangover from allardyce i think.
  5. What a pile of absolute s****. dunno...i think theres lots of mileage in the idea that the mail hate us more than the mackems hate us.
  6. keegan has been at best "clumsy" with this
  7. Is it The Times where Owen used to have/has a column? Good news if true, anyway. Yep. Think he's signed to the News of the world now. Same company though. nobody see the irony in this............madrid to us.......times to the news of the world ?
  8. i wonder if he means either side of his spell at darlo or when he did actually sign for the 'ammers only to be told "errr no you dont"
  9. Or perhaps it's just bollocks? Perhaps you touch yourself at night. I'll get you a photo if you like Keep your camera for the playground mate. That wasn't as good as the first comeback. You aren't as good as the first comeback. Ya mam! Can we just stop now?

    Kenny Dalglish

    Agreed - what you say about Terry Mac is true too - I thought he was one of the best box-to-box midfield players I've ever seen when he was in his prime. Made his debut for NUFC against Liverpool in 1972 after signing from Bury for 25,000 pounds(must be one of the best buys of all time)and he was Newcastle's best player on the day, just as he was when we lost to Liverpool at Wembley in 74 ; McDermott was the only Newcastle player to do himself justice in the final and I believe that performance was instrumental in Liverpool signing him for 170,000 4 months later. Although many NUFC fans knock Dalglish for his time as manager here, I believe that he made some really good signings - Solano and Hamman among them and the players liked him, despite his taciturn image in the Press. I still think he was unlucky that Shearer got injured before the 97-98 season because he and Tomasson would have proved a success in time.... unlucky in losing asprilla aswell to injury leaving us with none of his preferred forward line for a long,long time
  16. it wasn't citeh that done him in it was the england job and for all he's looks better than he was then he still doesn't seem like the keegan of his first term here he does seem like he is on the way back. good for each other it seems.
  17. who was the toon keeper at white hart lane who caught the ball then fell over and the ball trickled over the line........i;m 80% sure he was callled bell mid 70's
  18. well who'd a thought it ?
  19. Thomas could have been a mistake, Hardwick would have been my choice in a piss take. roger jones or martin bell ?
  20. The first time I read that I had to stop reading at Neil Macdonald. why did you go beyond thomas ? mind you i saw him have a world class game at luton.
  21. We only needed to turn draws in to wins to have made that a very good season and we almost did finish 4th. Only bringing in Bowyer shouldn't be under-estimated, especially after the CL disappointment. As for that terrible season, I'd swap it with any we've had since. Precisely, we played poorly pretty much throughout the entire season and struggled with turning draws into wins, and we only just lost out on 4th places in something like the 35th/36th game at Southampton? Imagine if SBR was given the finance to put in some fresh impetus and some competition for places for the likes of Bellamy or Dyer, would we still of been complaining about discipline if those 2 especially werent our only option? The sad thing, is that our eyes got too big for our stomachs and we we didnt realise that in actual fact we would prbably have started the next season as one of the favourites for the UEFA cup....how times have changed. Too old...... it scares me that some can't see the difference in how we palyed that season and the season before.
  22. brisbane road was always supposed to be the biggest in the league......................should they reach the prem they could be in with a shout
  23. i don't think he ever peaked...just showed glimpses of what could maybe have been.
