aye glad someone agrees i would say get rid but i don't rate our chances of getting ferguson or wenger,the only two i could honestly beleieve would definitly get us where we think we should be....i wonder if some on here if they supported someone else would look on NUFC this season and think "tonnes of injuries fucked their season"
-
who do you think will be stopping or going...not who you want to stop or go ? stop..... given krul solano taylor huntington edgar parker butt duff milner n'zogbia martins owen carroll ameobi go..... harper carr babayaro moore bramble bernard luque emre pattison o'brien with dyer being the shock departure
-
Parker cost 6.5m. So that leaves Emre and Duff. he has evra in there at 5.5 so why not ?
-
good grief why arent emre,scott parker and duff in there. contender for stupidest thread of the year ?
-
is it the done thing nowadays to call your uncle "retarded"?
-
kin ell...how crap. be honest,you'll say "bit gay" when someone does something you don't agree with. he's bringing on luque when i'd bring on n'zogbia,bit gay that like
-
but vicky knows to do it on friday night when everyone should be out,hell i'm at work in 5 hours,shit knows what his excuse was,so theres no moderation going on and tomorrow they'll be getting over tonight.so he by the time they want to ban him they'll think " that was ages ago" if you want him banned pm a mod
-
look man,the lads reallly frustrated right now.he's working out his frustration and anger on here,would you rather he was on the streets ?
-
ne5 said i've never been sure of dyer through the middle and at times would like to see him play wide in a ljungberg type role,wide but not a winger,with a licence to come inside but not all the time.......not sure if he has the football nouse though.
-
a lot has been made of balance etc,this works throughout the team,not just left and right.we have been forced to play with players up front who cannot play that position and have a natural tendancy to drop off(sib and dyer).unless the remaining forward is of a hold em up style player the entire formation will struggle.martins will benefit hugely from having another able body beside him,regardless of big or small as it will create space for him.at present both centre halves can play towards him,one can get tighter than normal due to the centre half not worrying about getting turned etc as the other centre half will be covering due to our lack of other forward or movement from midfield. yet again the silly argument seems to be resurfacing about buying duff before a defender...it was never achoice of duff or defender,we had bids in for plenty of defenders,some of whom i didn't think were good enough(zat knight)but the bids were in. buy more boumsongs or get better players when you can ?
-
no one want spuds tonight then ?
-
as for sibs etc,they were brought in on frees so not much of a gamble.

Are you suggesting that Roeder had extra money available for defenders but instead decided to start a Premiership season with what had to be the smallest pool of defenders ever? If that's what happened then Roeder and Shepherd come off looking even worse. Six defenders, three of which are crocks and another of which is Ramage is not going to get you through a season whatever way you look at it. What on earth were they thinking?! Do you really believe Sibierski, Rossi and Bernard arrived as the result of a carefully planned transfer window or as the result of a last-minute panic? They all arrived in the final few hours, close to midnight August 31st. I remember the chronicle article at the time (the one I assume you're quoting regarding Zat Knight) and it painted a sorry picture. Milner in Birmingham ready to sign for Aston Villa and pulled back at the last minute, it was all a mess. How people can defend that transfer window I do not know, we are still reaping the mistakes today. bid for zat knight and robert huth,attempted to get woodgate....do you suggest we go down the lines of boumsong again ie making sure we get numbers in by paying inflated prices for crap ?
-
didn't mourinho also say we outbid boro for huth but he had already agreed to go there ?
-
we spent money on duff,so what,we also had money to spend on a defender(didn't we have a bid turned down for zat knight).roeders whole transfer policy has been if he cant get the player he wants he wont buy for the sake of it. you are making it sound like we didn't buy a defender BECAUSE we bought duff,which in my understanding wasn't the case. Where did you get the idea that he had more money from?? Oh, and if Roeder couldn't find a better central defender than Damange. Shambles and Moore - or a better left back than Babayaro - then he is even more of a f****** disgrace than i thought so. he can find tham but would you pay £8mill for upson ?..it's not footy manager where you just find someone better and get them,we've been ripped off too often for that.

nearly shit myself when the jacket i was wearing got slashed down the back in bradford. most worrying was being at the front of the jocks in the scotland-england game at hampden in1985,scary bus journey through glasgow,and very nearly got the shit kicked out of us on returning to the coach....the cockiness of youth brazened it out...the older me would have tried to run for it.

no i'm not,there are teams whose results i'll look out for(lincoln city,sheff wed,st pauli)but it's out of intrest,not "care" and i could in no way,say i "support them"
-
I don't like it and think it has been abused and needs changing. isn't it farcical that a club can buy a player,loan him out straight away for a full season(i'm sure the system was brought in so clubs could have a good look at a player,shouldn't take a season),then again so the player plays more games for others than he does for the club that owns him.if they don't want him sell him. I understand that it is good for youngsters to get experience therefore i would keep the loan system for under 21's if they are loaned "down" the leagues. thoughts ?
-
damn right it's not like cheating on your wife...it's serious. it's not a concious decision i've made, i just don't "care" about other teams.
-
i know there used to be a rule about how many loanees you could have per season,think it still applies.

So, you're foreign to Newcastle or Newcastle is foreign to you? I guess, since I was born in the Toon but moved to Canada at a young age and was raised here, that Newcastle are my "Top Foreign Club". If you want to get into logistics. eh ? it's got nothing to do with foreign or otherwise.i acn only support one club. as for those abovethey are doing what they despise others doing over here,ie supporting the big clubs because they are more likely to win. Yeah, sure. MTK, Sporting and Hertha win everything. see "vast majority" and "nearly all"
