And how many times do we have to remind you that Tiote was unknown? Even the other names have some question mark of sort over them..... but i won't go there.

What a shit article. Fuck off Edwards you twat.

only done it once though. losing nolan and carrolls goals and replacing them with Ba and Erdinc. not saying they cant replace them, but neither have as good strikerates as those 2, and even with Carroll and Nolan we needed further striking options. The loss of oNolan is looking worse every day How does Ba not have as good a strike rate? He does have a good strike rate. But I still think hasn't proved himself long term. (Mainly because he only joined the PL in January, of course.) Could be the next Amr Zaki for all we know. (Hopefully not! )

Let's make a banner with one of those quote printed on it.

so predictable.

Sammy Ameobi tried to score with a back heel. Nailed on.

Would Mancini have taken him off in a competitive match as opposed to a friendly?

You mean just like you twisted the scaniaro about enrique earlier? We lost Carroll, Nolan, most likely enrique and, soon, Tiote if he continues to improve. Not to forget Barton. Which part is made-up? As I've said, name one non-top 6 club who'd have rejected those offers, offered Barton a long-term contract, and would be able to keep a player like Enrique when he only has a year to go? How about if you look at the bigger picture, then. Why are we in the position that we are in now? Does it mean we should accept it? Don't get what you mean, sorry. why aren't we in a position to keep enrique?

I reckon someone tried to backheel a goal.

I think bringing in N'Zogbia and Sturridge would have given us a good chance of fighting for or qualifying for the UEFA and I think 35 million would have been enough to bring those two in. Do you think that's enough for Enrique just playing Europa League though? I think it's more about seeing the club progress, being part of a happy camp and being on the right deal tbh. Hence my earlier reply to you. We were never going to progress to the level he wants to play at in the next 2-3 years at least so don't think that has any bearing, otherwise signing Tiote, and two full France internationals (who've achieved far more in their careers in France and internationally than Enrique has here by the way), would surely show some signs of progress. The only two players who've gone are players who were offered mental contracts and/or mega fees. Tiote was unknown. Ben Arfa I have a feeling is here because he sees us as a stepping stone. Cabaye came because of the vision sold to him by Pardew (let's see if they fulfil their promise to him that investment will be made) and also for the money. He's already on around 50k. Suppose his game improves one year down the line, he would then, of course, would want a pay rise. We would then simply have another enrique on our hands. And the cycle would carry on. This is how I see Ashley's vision- The first part of Ashley's plan, which is to find bargains in France, Holland, etc, sounds great. Don't have a problem with that. In fact, I've always wanted NUFC to have a deep scouting system that is capable of unearthing a gem or two. The 2nd part of his plan, which is basically surrendering to any of the big clubs coming in for our players and any individual that shows improvement or ambition, is a load of crap.

What's your source, Dave? Reggae reggae.

I can't believe how unbelievably deluded those lot are. fuck off you twats.

I love how criticising a player = supporting Ashley in your eyes. I condone his behaviour in the last x months, but he was saying the truth, the frustrating truth. With this "revelation" and, if results don't go our way in the coming season, Ashley will feel the heat more and more. The more pressure on Ashley and co, the better, imo. I still want them out badly, staying up last season was no reason to lighten the pressure on them, imo.

exactly my thoughts. Fuck off City supporters, you twats!

Legend!

I was thinking more along the lines of him signing the contract, or handing in a transfer request, you know, the way things should be done. He's stooped to Ashley's levels and people are buying it purely down to their hatred of the board. Stooped to Ashley's level? How? By actually telling the truth? good one.

bitter Brazilian.

i definitely think an agreement has been reached between clubs.

sending spam.

A player on his way out to play Champions League football wants the club to succeed more than the people who actually own it? Fin d that a bit hard to believe. Or maybe - "A player on Newcastle's books wants the club to succeed more than the people who actually own it? Find that a bit hard to believe." Why not??

Exactly. The more pressure on them, the better. Why should they get away with it?
