I may as well say it in here too so Madras can get angry again: The one thing we need is another centre-back, like.

Is this in the 'I believe in God' sense or the 'I believe I can fly' sense?

Gotta love the first sentence of the totally impartial Wikipedia article: 'Willie McKay is a corrupt Scottish football agent based in Monaco. '

Eh? Why? How many Italians, Greeks or Germans play abroad?

So has Ruud Gullit, but I wouldn't want that wanker back.

Mebbes, but Mourinho can speak English at least.

'Defender stayed at Newcastle too long', say Newcastle fans.

A Toon Train!

And nowt to do with the fact he was runner-up World Player of the Year.

Would be nice to see the scarves out again. If there's nowt happening on the pitch, we should at least make an effort in the stands.

The London-based fans could boost that number. It's a tricky one, like.

Double his salary, Premier League glamour. + a regular challenge week in and week out. I always got the impression managing a country would be boring compaired to a club, seen as you have very few games a year. You know what I mean. If he'd held out for a bit a better offer would've come along.

No idea why McLeish'd want to go there.

So everyone should just pretend everything is going fine and not be allowed to voice concerns about shite we currently are? Keep it up Big Sam, you're doing a terrific job! Yeah, basically. What's booing and chanting going to do other than heap pressure on an already pressurised manager and group of players? If everyone tries to get behind him, we can at least say we gave him a fair crack at the whip.

:clap: Why would you applaud a load of baseless assumptions?

You seem to know a lot about what Allardyce can and can't do, like. Where's your evidence?

I don't how else to say it: people need to either back the team or shut the fuck up, for a few months at least.

Well said. I don't think Mort is the type to mess about with mind-games and the like. Every interview I've read, he's played with a straight bat.

To be fair to Mort: he's new in the job and is, I think, completely genuine. These snippets don't do him justice.

a) it's nowt but a prress rumour b) we don't know if he's crap or a fantastic prospect c) sign good players when you can,you may need a forward but that shouldn't stop you getting quality players for other positions when they come along. a) You're gay b) You're a big gay c) Gay gay gay gay GAY! you done well to keep the flies out of your food photo's

Another centre-half is just what we need, like.

I know Oba's come out with quotes saying he really likes Big Sam. If the players have a grievance it's up to one of the senior players to have a chat with Sam and get it sorted.

I bet Man City don't finish anywhere near as high as half the people on this board think. No offence, Dr. Spec.
