    RIP sale thread.

    Could make us a hell of a lot more attractive. I'm inclined to think he'll take what he can get especially with wages running so high (money that has to be found every month) till they are shifted. Might not be so easy to shift either. Aye, the wages until Owen/Viduka/Cacapa/etc fuck off are just dead money now the season is over. The quicker he gets out the better for him. If you think about it (assuming Owen is on £105,000 a week as many papers and FM document) then from the final day on May 24th, Owen will make £525,000, over half a million, from simply going into training for a couple of days and then sunning it and watching racehorses, in 5 weeks. There will probably be some excessive loyalty bonus for him seeing out his contract too. He should be made to work by NUFC until his contract expires in my opinion.
  2. Apparently David Williamson and Gary Oliver are to go.
  3. Good, means he isn't gonna be wasting energy playing in a tournament he is too old for.

    He's not sticking it on ebay you know It's not that easy to get rid of a football club Well it was easy enough to buy it. "Shearer threatening to walk, club in administration, its all going to go belly up if you don't give me £100m by Friday Freddy."

    This is probably why he wants rid ASAP, get rid before Friday, and overdraft becomes someone elses problem without him needing to do stuff that will affect his other assets.

    This. No players can leave/signed until 1st July, im sure some investors see potential in a cut price club who are under performing and (undervalued?) as on paper have alot of assets and plus points. Not true, the window opened at 6pm today. However, players and agents refuse to move until July because it means they miss out on their annual loyalty bonus. Ok I didn't know that. However that makes the point still valid, no players will move until then Yeah, I just wanted to make the point. Someone who wouldn't get a loyalty payment like Surnam could join us tomorrow if we wanted, but some of our players might be sticking around for some reason...

    To be honest, if one of those foreign businessmen knew anything, they should realise that NUFC is probably the cheapest entry route into Premier League. Like buy Portsmouth for £50m and be committed to spending £300m on a new stadium, in addition to transfers, or buy NUFC for £100m, spend to get in the PL, and then the stadium is already there.

    Looks like the club is suddenly well in reach of a cetain bald headed fat person.
  10. I suspect it was more to do with the hangover for me.

    Tamas Kadar

    He joined the group 'Joseph Fritzl is a legend!!!' Something tells me he just accepts anything. Its probably got something to do with the Austrian-Hungarian rivalry.
  12. I've heard that Mike Ashley went under the Temple, and the smoke monster told him that he has to do whatever Shearer tells him to do, or die

    Tamas Kadar

    Doesn't binnsy (seemingly the one person who has a believable opinion on the reserves / youths) say that Baheng's rubbish and not up to it, even at reserve level? Looked decent when I've seen him and I can't remember him saying that but I could be wrong. Just as likely I'm wrong tbf (it isn't - I'm just being nice). Could have sworn he said Danquah and Baheng were holding the team back, could be thinking of someone else mind. I remember him saying it about Xisco.

    Steve Harper

    People are missing the point of the OP. Its not that Harper isn't good enough for the championship, or a scapegoat for our relegation or anything, its merely that he is now blocking the club's future. We have a goalkeeper on our books who would have played for either a CL team or a top Dutch team this season had a £3m transfer not been blocked by the board. The choice is between the future and the past, and if we go for the past, we aren't going to see the future, and will have to start looking for a keeper when we come back up.

    U23s & Academy

    Well done lads. I'd imagine Vuckic felt really at home with the opposition.
  16. :lmgtfy: What does that actually mean?

    Old New Third Kit

    Disgrace tbh. Those who purchased it should get the next 3rd shirt free of charge.

    Ashley statement

    It's better than the obsequious apology by Llambias at least.
  19. BBC seem to think that he's being offered a four year deal as we speak. No evidence for me that he'll be a good appointment, but its best to just get on for the ride.
