Was this a one off mention from a newspaper rumour or are SSN still running with it?

If we had signed Ronaldo I seriously doubt he'd still be with us now. Either that or he'll still be doing pointless step-overs like he first did when he signed for Man Utd. Or playing at left back!

If I could ask one thing of the new regime it would be to stop all contact with Willie McKay. Any players who use him, change or get out.

Spot on, kind of shows why clubs go for a foreign manager doesn't it.

At least when managers realise Ameobi is shit he gets dropped, as opposed to Smith who gets moved to midfield!

Who will be first to get what these two lists are? France Scotland Israel Scotland Northern Ireland Spain Sweden Wales England England Spain England England Ireland England England Scotland England England England and England USA Russia England USA USA Thailand England Russia Iceland England England England Ireland England England England England England USA

I think what Keegan is getting at is that if Barnes is our only signing then there will be a hell of a lot of pressure on him to improve us. Ideally he wanted him to come in under the radar and have time to settle before putting any pressure on him. Mind, I don't agree with that, I think we need bodies in now, but thats what I think Keegan means.

Its more annoying that the top three threads are all spurs.

The last thing i want is another moody french defender.

I think M Jol's comments in this thread some up why I hate Spurs fans quite well. http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/index.php?topic=49261.0

Can we not just spend the money on cloning Faye?

Ignoring the fact that this is clearly made up, I read it as a £10m deal, which includes Ameobi going the other way. Maybe if we can pretend he is worth £4m or so, this could work.

SWP gone off injured today

Stoke 2 - 0 Preston So they arent that bad

I'd put a need for creativity in midfield above those 3 positions, I'd say a centre back was the least of those priorities once the African players come back. I agree fully

typical, less than a week in the job and Spurs are going above us. Keegan Out!

Ok, can someone please prove me wrong once and for all or everybody stop including Barton!

Les Ferdinand is Setanta's studio pundit, and Kelly Dalglish will be the first to interview Keegan after the game. Quite ironic.

Has a squad been named? Is Barton available or not?

Some pundit on TalkSport earlier saying his first signing will be Barry Robson of Dundee Utd. 29 year old goalscoring midfielder apparently. Can't say I have ever heard of him. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Robson

After falling out of love a bit with the past 3 managers.... :band: It looks like, I'm falling, all over again........

didnt specify but i think he meant now

Why does Garth Crooks get to ask so many questions? I'm sure there are people there itching to ask things that havn't been able to ask 1.

4 people still here from when he left. Terry Mac, Harper who else? Says he will definitely speak to Shearer and if there is a roll he wants, that suits him, he will be coming.

Feels he is best man for the job. Didn't leave cos he wanted to, left because of circumstances.
