Yup, I'm backing him to have a decent season this year. Depends on the formation, rotation and probably the form of Viduka but I can see him up around 15 goals this season. ameobi? Excellent goal ratio since he first got a serious look in from January 2006. If he gets enough regular spells on the pitch, he will get enough goals.

Yeah, if there were any cameras at the match (I'm sure Sam would have made sure of it), the goals'll be on SSN and Newcastle World tommorrow morning.
-
Game isn't televised, and not many fans went, new players and new manager - bound to be one of the busiest games of the season on here in my opinion.
-
Good start to pre-season. Sounds like Carroll, Dyer, Shola, Troisi, Owen and Barton can in particular be pleased with their input, although obviously no-one is up to Premiership standard yet.
-
Good experience for all the youngsters to be honest, what with established internationals on the same team.
-
Considering Krul starts ahead of him, I'm guessing that Forster is the fourth best keeper at the club.
-
No-one is being phased out based on the squad number they are given. A squad number is just that.
-
Newcastle's best defender has generally worn number 27 throughout the Premiership years.
-
Was 12 last season I think. Changed from 13 to 12 when Andy Griffin changed from 12 to 2 in his last season for us. yeah exactly... some very odd changes I must say Why Nobby would suddenly revert back? I'm sure he has first choice to keep his own number.... and Harps going back and forth... footballers have too much time I guess. :idiot2: Perhaps they are trying to go back to the good old days before all started going wrong.

Steve Harper has changed numbers from 12 to 13 as well.
-
Number 3 has been vacant for years.
-
15 was Nobby's old number in his first spell at the club.
-
Albert Unlucky has got Bramble's old number now

It is because of the new rule. When the player have one year or less left of his contract, he/the buying club can pay the salary he would make on that year as transfer-fee, so it is not a release clause. That is why Chelsea have such a rush with signing a new contract with Lampard. This is at least how I understood the new rule. Its two years and you have to be over the age of 28. Three years for under 28, and can only be done to join a club in a different country.

I now have a mental filter on whatever Vic writes. Whatever I see, I read it as: Blah blah blah, blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

I think he was hinting towards the possibility of a big signing in addition to four more defenders.

Right, thats it, no more PM requests please.

Why? Because any individual involved isn't going to have access to all computers there.

I doubt that if the fraud squad was involved that they'd take every single hard drive in the stadium.
-
There is a bit of confidence, arrogance and willingness to kick others up the backside which has stood out amongst many of his end of season interviews. Something rather Keane-esque actually. Obviously he has yet to obtain the on-pitch influence of Keane. He was described off the record by a Newcastle coach last season as the least liked player in the squad, despite other personal testimonies on here that he is a great guy. I'd say that Roeder probably looked down at attributes that could be described as confrontational even though such attributes, channelled correctly can turn also-rans into winners.
-
Veron never really cut it in the Premiership despite playing for two good teams, and clearly hated playing here. Would be a bad signing if it happenned.

There is a website that calculates this. The highest paper gets 25% iirc.
