  1. We'll need a replacement like, we're already two midfielders short imo.
  2. Sad adults. "You's wrinklies are like so uncool!" http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/images/38347000/jpg/_38347633_kevin300.jpg
  3. Oh. My. God. Don't ever talk to me about NUFC again. In that case don't fucking talk to me about The Bill (Eastenders too cos I watched that as well) and we're all happy.
  4. I live in Newcastle and I stayed at home cos I wanted to see The Bill. Is that ok?
  5. http://www.football.co.uk/shared/images/players/players_9343.jpg Looks like he's jut caught some bloke in bed with his wife, doesn't know whether to cry or fly into a fit of rage Probably Midds.
  6. Every day brings nowt, it's starting to concern me more and more. I thought this week would be the week we'd move on a few targets but it's Thursday now, and there's fuck all.
  7. He was out of contract! He'd have had to give a new contract to Sibierski, Moore, Pav and all the other deadwood we shifted by that logic. 'Clean slate' applied to the players contracted to NUFC, that was always obvious.
  8. Sounds like change for change's sake to me. Pointless.
  9. Liverpool, Man Utd and Chelsea all have chairmen with no football experience when they took charge.
  10. Who the fuck's Haim?
  11. SSN breaking news - mackems have bid £4m for it.
  12. Dude how old are you? At least he is letting us know why things are not progressing as quickly as we would all like. It's good to know that we are at leastactively pursuing people and have the resources to do so. Would you rather hear the manager is out scouting players like Roeder was doing? Or hear that we are about to sign someone only to find out we aren't and have in fact brought in Sibierski and Bernard instead? Relax and find something else to do for a little bit. Any news will most likely be coming through at around 1:00pm when the evening chronicle articles come through. Dude are you retarded? Well we will at least here something. We can then decide how true it is. It's where we have heard about most of our targets initially isn't it? We shoukld at least have an update on whether or not the Baptista and Hangeland talk is "wide of the mark" or not. Seriously, you might as well go ask the cat at 12:00pm, at least you'll get the news an hour earlier, and its probably got closer than Anal. Tomorrow ask a random wall at 11am and be right ahead of the game.
  13. He's fucking appalling. £6m.
  14. http://icnewcastle.icnetwork.co.uk/newcastleunited/journalsport/tm_headline=no-win-to-mark-start-of-new-era%26method=full%26objectid=19499461%26siteid=50081-name_page.html
  15. We'll still sign him this summer. "Line-up opening day" Hope so though, depending on the severity of the injury.
  16. How many people are picking Bridge? He's injured lads.
  17. "Believed" by who? This summer we're "believed" to have bid for Deco and inquired about Ronaldinho! All depends on what you read in the papers, personally I prefer to believe fuck all until I see something concrete, to my recollection there was fuck all concrete about Davies or Crouch.
  18. Are you worried about the lack of signings at the back? There's a good chance Taylor and Babayaro won't be fit for the start of the season which will leave us with a likely back four of Carr, Rosenhal, Ramage and Huntington. Acceptable? Another thing mate, you've been more vocal than most in the past about Shepherd not getting signings in quick enough and how not getting a proper pre-season in here could be linked to injuries from our new signings, is your opinion still the same with this new lot in charge? I think we need three defenders absolute minimum, in an ideal world we'd have five because Rozehnal and Taylor are the only ones I'd feel comfortable with on a Premiership football pitch but I don't think that's going to happen. I don't think I've ever been vocal about Shepherd not getting signings in in good time, I've been vocal about the manager not getting them in, like last summer when Roeder put his feet up and told us "not to worry, bags of time yet", Souness did the same then spunked it in the last week. I think Allardyce knows what we need, unlike those two clowns, and I think he'll get what we need up to a point. I think this week is the crucial one. We are hearing rumours of bids going in for defenders, and other players too, so we shall see. That the papers aren't crediting us with any really solid interest means fuck all, cos they know exactly that.
  19. Where have I said all other Premiership investors are here to make money? Link? The fact is it's going to cost him big money to get Newcastle into the CL, is the potential profit worth the initial investment to get us there? I didn't say that, I said the opposite. Aye, I know you did, it was a typo. Anyway, where have I said all other Premiership investors are here for footballing reasons? Link? You said that Abramovich's spending suggests he's not in it for the money - but West Ham, Man Utd, Liverpool and Man City, among others like Pompey, are already spending big, so we can assume they're not in it for the money either. Man Utd make close to £50 million profit every year, there level of spending isn't out of the ordinary for them, Liverpool are similar but on a smaller scale, they've spent a lot but made close to £20 million in sales. Pompey, West Ham and Man City haven't spent that much this summer, less than we spent some seasons under Shepherd in fact. They've spent a lot compared to their usual spend, that comes from the new owners, plus it's not even August yet. I agree that we need defenders btw, preferably top quality ones, we need other positions filled too, I just don't think getting on the new owner's back is going to do any good at this pont when we don't know much about him.
  20. Abramovich is slightly different don't you think? His spending suggests he's not in it for the money. Who said Ashley was? Are you assuming that because he hasn't spent money yet? He's only been here five minutes man. I'm assuming he's here to make money as that's what he's about, let me rephrase what I've said about Abramovich, he's taking a risk with his money which means there is a good chance he won't make it back, however he'll have the fallback of owning the land that Stamford Bridge is on which is worth a fortune anyway. Why do you think he's here Wullie? I don't know why he's here - but I find it bizarre that you just assume he's here for money and that all the other Premiership investors are here for footballing reasons. If he wants to make money, there are about a million ways to make it rich before paying £130m to buy a football club - Ashley should know, he's a billionaire and you think he's come here for the, what, £30m a year you said? That's peanuts to Ashley, and he'll have to spend some of that even if he wants the club to just stand still. It'll take him five years to break even. 'Sources' from inside the club via the press suggest he wants to go very big and make us one of the biggest in Europe. Now that might be bollocks, but so is assuming that because he hasn't lashed £50m up the wall in the first month that he's here for cash.

  24. What the hell's not being a fan of the club got to do with it? Roman is hardly a born and bred West Londoner.
