I am really dissapointed with this signing to be honest, I think we could do so much better by getting someone like Gattusso. Seriously, I'm really looking forward to seeing Allardyce working with a collection of high quality players.

Within five years, we'll be the best team in the world for at least ten years. We are not the new Chelsea, we are the new Barcelona.

Really guys, I was just reacting to: a) requests to lock that thread b) comments that the 110 pager was inaccessible and unfollowable c) The fact that 31 people had posted in the new thread as oppossed to 5 in the other since the new thread began. It really wouldn't be difficult to reply to anything in the other thread, just open a new window on your web browser, and paste it onto here. As I see it, this thread is slow because there are some big transferstories going on, and now Shepherd has sold, there isn't much to speculate about.

Anything before 2pm is England. Beckham. England. England. Beckham. Beckham. Beckham. McClaren. Posh Spice. Owen. Crouch. England. England. Terry Venables. England. England. Beckham. Beckham. Owen. Crouch. Rooney. Beckham. Beckham. England.

Seriously? Where's this like? Quotes in the Chronicle, let me dig them up...

He is still better than what we have already got.

The cynic in me tells me that no transfer will be completed today, as we wont want to be overshadowed by England.

Doubt it £70k - that is the usual explanation London press give for someone rejecting someone else to come here.

Pretty much seen that on certain occassions, and although I've imagined thedropping bit, the fining definitely happenned. Also seems though that there were players who Allardyce trusted with this ability, so it may not be too much of an issue.

I definitely have heard Allardyce say several times after a wonder goal that if the player had missed, they'd get punished.

Cantget a good right back for £3m without a very competent foreign scouting network.

...yeah but you have to choose. That basically means keep them all for their various options, but Martins is themost expendable of the three.

At Allardyce's Bolton, shoot from distance in open play, and miss, and you were out of the team, given the reduction in goalscoring probability when further out. Can we expect the same at Newcastle, or do you think Allardyce will give a free rein to those players with talent?

I see Owen as our Shearer, Viduka as our Ferdinand, and Martins as our Asprilla.

Probably found out that there wont be a press conference, so Jim White will be calling on all mongs to flock at St. James Park to protest against such a travesty.

I think Allardyce is being way too quick about this. He needs to watch Rozenhal play more games, and while he's at it, check out Feyenoord's Dirk Kuyt.

I'd put Shola under the uncertain future category to be honest. We have no idea as to whether Allardyce rates him - plenty of people on here don't. And lets face it, Allardyce seems to want to (rightly) replace a significant part of our squad.

Friendly has been arranged.

So lets get this straight. Allardyce is seriously considering trying Dyer out at right back, and told Dyer so. McClaren discovers that Allardyce plans to do this, and then just suddenly decides that it wouldbe a brilliant idea. What a genius that McClaren is, totall his own man, unreliant on others ideas.

The South American clubs play many more matches though, and the better European based South Americans often miss out, allowing worser players to feature.
