James

Has been sacked by/resigned from approximately 4 million clubs. Leaving Al-Nassr and going to Al-Nasr was a real low point. Took years to get over his loss.

Must be the Middle East connection. Doubt he will do well.

To be honest given the quality of clubs trying to sign him there is no reason we can't keep him if looking from a quality perspective only.

Saw Southend play once. Had Leon Cort in defence and Tesfaye Bramble up front. Was hilarious.

I know managers like getting their excuses in early, but Sam "Need a Winter Break" Allardyce takes the biscuit.

Might be a good game for Mitro to find some confidence, given his Belgium record.

Seriously though, I remember someone posting on here a while back that he had some clause in his contract that he had to play an 'x' number of games per season if fit. Starting to think there might be some truth in that if even Rafa Benitez keeps playing the useless clogger every week. I don't believe Rafa would allow that. Colback would be a Hull player by now, or we would simply renege and let him be released. He cost us nowt after all

He is a useless cunt and will always be a useless cunt and has a high proportion of blame for our relegation. Looking forward to see the Liverpool fans turn on him. Hope he ends up bankrupt, destitute and loveless - it is better than he deserves. Good riddance. Onwards and upwards now.

To be fair to Allardyce, I think that his record at Bolton, Blackburn, West Ham and Sunderland is on the whole fairly credible in terms of working with what he had when he joined these clubs. On the other hand West Ham had to get rid to continue their progress while he should never have got near the Newcastle or England jobs. Just goes to show how far England has fallen.

I like to focus on the positives, we have brought in Ritchie who was the leagues best player two seasons ago so he should be head and shoulders above, and unlike the other three, motivated. Similarly with Gayle who doesn't have the track record in this division, but should be the best striker. So we'll replace two Cunts with two quality players, and lost Townsend.

I used to do a top 5 best looking NUFC players every year after the summer transfer window closed but after a few years received death threats so I stopped.

Damn autocorrect

Liverpool fans will grow to detest him. They never took to Owen because of his personality but at least he got goals for them. This shitstain is 1000 times worse.

It's not about who played shit, it was about who gave a shit and though we had a number of problems with Sissoko's consistency and effort, he would put a shift in for say 1 in 3 games even when we were struggling. He even played left back under Rafa and did a good job when he could have sulked. Wini just pouted and sulked all season

Whatever we get I will be glad to see the back of Wini, clearly one of the worst personalities ever associated with the club. Good riddance and I hope he fails for the rest of his life and ends up destitute and bankrupt and loveless.

I'm confident that if we have competition for places it will benefit us and the best players will ultimately get the starting berths they deserve. So any signing is fine by me - so long as Rafa approves.

Just get cash so we can get the best available player and not the best available Spurs player.

Scotland and Scottish football is horrific right now and other than a tenuous link to Hanley that I don't think is going anywhere I doubt we will look at the Scottish leagues

Of Sissoko and Wijnaldum I think I would rather have Sissoko in the team as he will try to influence a game you just have to motivate him to give his best in all games. Wijnaldum on the other hand is a coward and hides when the going gets tough even when Rafa took charge, whereas Sissoko clearly upped his game. Having said that we have got at least a year in this division, and the first year up won't be easy (target 10th to 14th). We need a dependable spine we can add quality to later on. Them too can't offer that.

No one. Let's see who earns it.

Well escalated Linford Christie?

i am glad Stevieintoon is not around to see this thread, he would shit his pants.

Apparently after he head butted Neymar, Neymar said: "he is not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy"

Going to make a decision over one last supper

His Dad is pretty good too. Would be good to have him on our side
