James

Former Northampton Town, Bournemouth, Luton Town and York City goalkeeper dead at 37 with cancer. RIP

Chronicle article on him today. Has basically been told he has to get his arse out if he wants to save his career.

Done I am with all of this nonsense. Seriously, I bet by 8pm tonight if he hasn't signed people will be back to Mr negative.

I think you are over egging this a little, I don't see much difference between one player on the opposite side and two, although they will link up at times they essentially do different jobs so I can't see it being a major problem. Both players have played a lot of their careers on that side so it's not as if we are chucking them both into the unknown. For me it is just that extra touch that Jonas takes and Taylor takes to switch the ball on their right foot really slows our passing down and reduces the number of chances we create. Don't see why it will be different with Santon.

Really don't like the idea of two right footed players on the left but beggars can't be choosers. Hopefully Marveaux is up to it.

The website you've pasted the profile from has a news article about him signing. The forum you've posted the news to has a thread about him signing. It has also a search function, I can only assume you're new to the forum. So you may want to post a welcome message here: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,7134.0.html JJ Hooper does not come up with anything on search, and I don't have time to look at every post on all of the uber threads.

Thought he was just on trial and unconfirmed?

Don't worry, Freddy Shepherd has not heard of Yossi Benayoun and neither has Graeme.

Cool. What happenned to that Egyptian U20 that was supposed to be signing on a one year loan? Also Remy and Situ?

Who the fuck is Bolek?

What?? Two right footers on the left isn't good at all. See yesterday where moves kept breaking down on the left because of this.

If we sign santon as a left back, Jonas has to be out if the team.

Would be opposed to having a right footed left back with a right footed left winger in front on a regular basis as it reduces the fluidity of the side which really caused problems in the first half with our passing.

I saw him manipulating his hand, so wrist is doubtful.

Only thing I'm down about is the fact that he now has a foot injury.

Good cameo. I saw him clutching his hand immediately after he had given away that free kick.

Best!

He doesn't even talk about Fulham unless is about their shit strip.

Took 18 seconds for him to say "put the ball in the box"

Obertan, Lovenkrands. Thought they were both primarily rightfooted? If not why are they both spending so much time on the right?

Krul is our only left footer which makes us really imbalanced.

At one point the co-commentator praised Raylor for cooly hoofing the ball 70 yards to no-one

We have two right footed players on the left, meaning our play is too narrow and we are taking too many touches.
