Everytime the Lille Chairman's phone rings, he must grasp the armrest of his chair and fear that it is us on the phone again.

People need to accept that whoever we sign Nolan will start every game when fit next season if he's still here, and he will deserve his place for being a good player and a good leader.

Dude I think you better post an immediate apology thread otherwise I suspect one of the Admin will consider banning you when they wake up, and the usual term is life for racism.

And we would have been if wasn't for the Tiote signing. Even then people were worried about Tiote only being back-up to Smith.

I definitely remember people getting worried that we'd be relegated with the likes of Nolan in midfield.

Sorry, I thought we were taking the piss out of ITKs? The mention of a fax machine, Klose wanting to fax Pratley, and room with Alan Smith should have made it obvious!?

Would be funny if we first activated Cabaye's release clause. Then Gervinho's. Then just as Lille think they are safe, we find Hazard's too.

My friend's sister in law has a cousin who operates the NUFC fax machine and she faxed a list of names and fax numbers to all the other fax numbers so they could all fax each other to confirm that they are joining. The list was Miroslav Klose, Gameiro, N'Zogbia, Gervinho, Cabaye, Samba, Neil Taylor, and Darren Pratley. Klose was particularly keen on faxing Taylor and Pratley and has requested he rooms with James Perch, or Alan Smith when Perch is injured.

Rooney must feel so insignificant next to Carroll

Maybe he does, I'd just hate to see the poor lad think it was more than opinion and they were a bit more in the know than anyone else with their suggestions. i don't necessarily give their opinion any more weight than anyone on here, i only commented on it because it seems as if someone agrees with me on it at last Why do you think Pardew went out with the scouts to France to look at players if he had no say? So the club could show him who they are signing to let Pardew have a think about what he would do with them once they arrive. (that is a joke, that is a joke, that is a joke)

£20m for Henderson, £16m for Jones, £24m for Bent, and £35m for Carroll is even more ridiculous!

I think it'll be Newcastle.

Kids aren't at the right level yet. Nothing wrong with some forward planning, especially when UEFA keep threatening to increase the quota.

Damn right mate. Presumably his thoughts are that we'd be stupid to get rid of him as we are either going to need to rely on unproven foreign players or overpriced British ones. I would agree.

Perhaps he is an inverted Martins/Geremi

What relevance has 'trained by club' got? We have 15 HG players registered at present, you only need 8 according to the stated rules unless he missed one. Have to have four if we get into Europe!

Cacapa looked class at first. But then Benjani cracked him and Cacapa showed he was ill-suited to the PL and too old to adapt.

If the club have European aspirations, having N'Zogbia would be useful in that he helps fill out the quotas. As well as probably being a good player for European games.

So our club-trained players are: Krul Harper Forster Taylor Ameobi Say we get into Europe next season, will there be four left? Possibly, possibly not, but certainly in the medium term re-signing N'Zogbia could have benefits...

THEY WERE AND DID PLAY FOR US MAN, BLOODY NORA! Look up one!

Eh? You don't have to register anybody if you don't want to. Have a look at our registered squad. Eh? What are you talking about? Forster I assume was registered because we had free spaces. It is not necessary to register anybody, whether they're at the club or out on loan. Spurs didn't register Woodgate for example. I thought we had a debate about this in February. Forster, Xisco, and Routledge were all registered despite there being no recall option which we later found out about Forster when Harper got injured. Going out on a limb here but i think we might have played two of those in Premier League games before they left. Um, players are reregistered on 1 Feb because of the transfer window.

Registering players that aren't allowed to play for us sounds a bit dumb. Maybe Llambias was being dumb? Going to need a quote to back that fact you claim tbh Don't really need a quote to know that the people at the club won't be happy if there is a player earning a weekly wage who is not registered to play for us.

Its easily found on the PL site, as it wont change til July its hardly useful at all really. Well it tells us for example that (assuming Cabaye is a done deal), we can only sign two players without having to sell. this is useful to keep track of. No it doesnt tell you that at all. We can sell nobody and simply remove Smith or Routledge or Xisco from the list. Hardly rocket science. We are owned by Mike Ashley. He won't allow for people to not be on the squad list and still be at the club. I highly suspect Pardew will have to sell before he buys once we reach 25.
