Belfast Boy

;D

Some very interesting stuff in there, I just wish it was clear whether he can play this weekend or not.

Kev, Don't you expect Coloccini to start?

Given Beye Coloccini Taylor Enrique Butt Guthrie Barton Jonas Owen Martins Still feel we need to add a midfielder or two. Would rather not have any of those three as first team to be honest.

Talksport reporting Kaboul has signed for Pompey.

I know its a struggle to read through, but I can't believe no one has picked up on the Taylor comment yet. Now I am actually a fan of Taylor but "Taylor would be welcomed into the ranks of any of the big four" is maybe pushing it a bit!

Can't see Given going to Rangers somehow.

jda, take a look to the left of your keyboard, a button above shift and below tab, might be of interest.

Giving the strict way fixture lists are monitored on here I can't image the mods allowing an official NUFC magazine to be scanned and published.

Ruined by the white strip for the sponsor. No need, the logo would stand out fine on all grey. Edit: Sorry 'Silver'

Unless you're ITK of course Seriously though, I hope Sir Bobby enjoys whatever time he has left, will be terribly sad when he is gone.

I really hope that Keegan is bluffing over Smith and maybe trying to get a little bit more out of Everton for him with those comments, but the problem with that is, that IF the deal does go through the tabloids will be all over them saying Keegan has no say over transfers and he didn't know it was happening.

Selling our good players and replacing them with shit has nothing to do with our current state? Fact is we should never have sold Bellamy. Which striker did we bring in in the Summer we sold him? Nobody to replace Bellamy, did we? So Owen didn't come into the team to partner Shearer? 11 games What's that got to do with anything? You said we brought in shite to replace him which isn't the case. Unless you think the Owen we signed was shite? He was a shite replacement seeing as he hardly managed a game until last season, yes. I'd rather have kept Bellamy. And Bellamy played how many games last season? 8 wasn't it?

Is there a reason we should care?

Shouldn't that be pnwb

http://www.fcbate.by/bate.php?lang=en Champions of Belarus apparently, I have no idea why they are in Caps on that list, I just cut and paste it from the BBC.

UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE Third qualifying round draw: Anorthosis/Rapid Vienna v Olympiakos Vitoria Guimaraes v IFK Gothenburg/Basel Shakhtar Donetsk v Domzale/Dinamo Zagreb Schalke 04 v Atletico Madrid Aalborg/Modrica v RANGERS/Kaunas Barcelona v Beitar Jerusalem/Wisla Krakow Levski Sofia v Anderlecht/BATE Standard Liege v LIVERPOOL Inter Baku/Partizan v Fenerbahce/MTK Budapest FC Twente v ARSENAL Spartak Moscow v Drogheda/Dinamo Kiev Juventus v Tampere/Artmedia SK Brann/Ventspils v Marseille Fiorentina v Slavia Prague Galatasaray v Steaua Bucharest Panathinaikos/Dinamo Tbilisi v Sheriff Tiraspol/Sparta Prague Assuming Drogheda don't cause an upset, that looks like a tasty game between Spartak Moscow and Dinamo Kiev.

I can't see how anything other than a fine can be fair. To ban him, which is probably likely, will only punish us, and he wasn't even with us when the incident occured. Is it really a punishment to ban a player for say six weeks, when he will still be getting paid by his club?

Opens the door for us to go back for Inler?

;D Of course he is clearly going to prefer joining us rather than all his dutch colleagues at Madrid.

Assuming Martin's wont play, our attacking choices terrify me.

Mrs. Donaldson clearly had the horn for Sir John then.

Whats the odds on a bid from us for Berbatov being the thing that seals his move to Man United?

I honestly think it leads to a 4-5-1 formation next season, which i am very happy about. As i said before, if we sign Bentley and Arshavin, i really can't see us getting in a dm (unless it's a cheap option). Those signings as well as no dm, probably leads to.. ------------------------------Jenas------------Modric--------------------------- ---------------Bentley--------------Arshavin-------------Gio------------------ ---------------------------------------Bent/new---------------------------------- A dm will probably see Modric playing as 1 of the advanced 3 and Gio on the bench (doubt it though as he's been outstanding in pre season). I still think we'll bring in 1 or 2 strikers (depending on Berbs situation). What makes you think Ramos would suddenly fancy Bent though? He hardly got a sniff last season did he?

KD, Whats the feeling on Spurs boards about the inbalance in your signings, ie signing so many midfielders when it appears you need forwards and defenders?
