Big Geordie

I think the lad has to be given a chance - aye there's that photo which was ill advised at the time, but to write him off before he kicks a ball for us plays straight into Pardew's hands.

Who is this Lee?! Underwhelmed with McCormack, though I know Leeds supporters rate him. 25+ goals in a struggling team is pretty good. However, It speaks volumes for the ambition of the club - merely to keep us in the PL and hope that similar cheap signings can pull that off.

Both would demand big fees. Rules us out.

Doesn't wash with me anymore. Just more tittle-tattle to offer some 'hope' and try and arrest a drop in season ticket sales.

I'd like to see him go too.

Klaus - I can see us being so thin on the ground, that Ashley might have to. It's either that or expect half the youth team being promoted to the First Team squad.

Chron running the story this morning that Montpellier want more cash for Cabella and that we 'should be patient'. It's gonna be a similar summer, with us ending up making panic buys at the end of August and scrabbling around in the bargain basement.

Being linked with this kid - I say kid, he's coming up 29. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Soriano

Lack of professionalism from Remy and what's just as bad, is that Pardew went along with it. He won't get a good reception (you would hope) when he next plays against us, and aye - it's nailed on he will score. He's a twunt.

If it is a rebuild on the cheap, then it begs the question - where is all of the cash going? Perhaps he's planning his exit strategy and wants his loan back asap. Problem is, that might take another 2-3 years to pay off.

Sidwell - if there is any truth in that, we are fucked big time. Proof that Ashley is rebuilding on the cheap.

Jammy bastards Real!

Athletico score!

QPR - another side we 'won't be able to compete financially with', this summer.

Told you's!

QPR down to 10 - O'Neill sent off for professional foul.

I'm gonna call this now - QPR and Redknapp will get a spawny winner. Austin misses a good chance.

So long and thanks for the memories. Shola. I wish him well for the World Cup and the future.

100k a week? What's he done in recent seasons to be worth that? He can GTF - assuming it's true.

Well, I guess the hard lads will now have their new target, if he signs - now Shola is leaving.

What does English have to do with it? I'm of the belief that we need more young english players in the squad.,

I remember the mackems going mental over Lee Clark and the SMB t-shirt. I thought we were better than that lot down the road? Give your heeds a shake, FFS. I think Colback will come in and do a job. Is he the big creative signing we all hope for? Nope, but he's versatile and English and will hopefully improve given time.

The abuse, FFS. I don't remember this much grief when we signed Bracewel from that lot! Gotta give the lad a chance - assuming he signs.

KK I know it's daft, but I'd still have him back here as boss in a shot (if given the choice)

Good effort today, but they didn't work the Cambridge keeper enough. Need a new striker who will get them 20-25 goals, next season.
