Shearer , sign him up, Shearer Shearer sign him up Why? Because he's a Newcastle fan? I'd rather take Berbatov if that were the criteria. Or because a) he would come b) he is miles better than anyone we have have in midfield c) his heart is in the club and wont shirk like the majority of the other wasters we have at the club.

This.. Its worrying!

He plays for Espanyol, though. If Espanyol were relegated, it was expected they would keep him as they would be looking to reduce the wage bill by losing some first teamers. They are safe now so its likely they will sell for 1.5 to 3 mill. Wont be returning to the Championship. If someone in the premiership/La Liga doesnt snap him up one of the three promoted clubs will, Celtic are also interested. However we have been watching him, I'd expect us to give it a go, I dont expect us to get him.

“There are too many people here who don't give a f***,” one said. “Too many wasters, too many chancers. There needs to be a clearout, from top to bottom.” Bet it was Viduka. Not a huge fan of Carver but he is well respected by people I do respect and he does love the club. Rob Lee would be good for kicks, god only knows if he would be any good, same goes for Bob Dowie, he was DOF at Palace for a few years but whether he is actually any good is another matter. Hope we manage to keep the Money in the Academy, looks like he is one of the few people actually doing their job.

Krul Forster Carroll Kadar Tozer Ranger Lua Lua Baheng Vukcic Adjei Inman Spear Might well all feature next year, although it might be a touch early for the tail end of that list. Might well give the likes of Danquah, Donaldson, Godsmark, Morris, Lough and even David Edgar another shot when the majority would have been sold on or released had we stayed up.

Can't see why Spurs would want him when they got Bent, Defoe and Keane who are all better then Oba and Man City will be looking for strikers much better than him as well. Type of player Droopy D loves... Bent will be out the door aswell. Defoe/Martins/Keane/Pavlyuchenko gives quite a bit of variety. Villa/Everton might well be other potential destinations in the UK.

So we have 15 players supposedly on wages over 50k/week. (which is total bollocks IMO more like 8 tops) Obviously we need to get rid of them all or cut their contracts in half before we can even think about bringing anyone new in. Sounds daunting but to be honest who are these players? Owen - Off Viduka - Off or getting a lower contract, think the A-League is calling Martins - Off Colo - Off Duff - Potential problem, someone would take him if he doesnt take the cut though. Smith - See above, I think he would stay though if Shearer asked him, easier to get shot maybe? Barton - Pay cut or out, dont think he has a leg to stand on at the minute. Butt - Pay cut or out, although like Duff can see him standing his ground Not even convinced most of them earn more than 50, but here are others maybe around that mark Cacapa - Off on a free Beye - Keep at all costs - will probably leave though, not a problem either way Taylor - Happy to stay, probably wont take a pay cut though. Jonas - Apparently happy to stay, which would be career suicide, will be off imo Geremi - Off Ameobi - If he makes anywhere near that he should be burned alive Xisco - would be suprised if his wage is that high, but would need to take a cut or leave, winners all round R.Taylor - Cut or out, doubt he is on too high a wage Nolan - probably off, wont take a cut imo, doubt he is on wages over 50k though. Enrique - Not close to 50k but will more than likely be off, we might get lucky though. Its all doom and gloom but to be honest I dont think there are too many people we will struggle to shift.

We are f***ed then given our win ratio of the last 8 "cup finals" we just played! We would end up on around 28 bloody points! There is a huge amount of competition though for those 3 spots, its going to be hugely difficult, imo we are going to struggle, especially if we take this superiority complex with us. Whilst its great we might get a couple of decent top flight players staying with us, its no use having them if the stone cold reality hasnt hit them that we went down because they werent good enough. Let hope we have enough of a young hungry element to push us where we want to go.

Suprised by that, although he is looking to get back in the international team. Not a huge loss by any stretch of the imagination but he would have been handy in the championship imo, I thought he would also take the drop for the first team football too. Nice to see some honesty though, you can bet the majority of those gutless wankers will wax lyrical about staying on to help like the heroes they are, whilst their agents will be whoring them out to every club under the sun.

If he wasnt a likeable character he would have been torn apart on here a long time ago. To be fair at times he has been anyway. He has huge potential but like anyone in the academy and reserves will now be realising, it wont ever be realised at this club unless things are turned on its head.

More than happy for him to stay, if he takes the pay cut, think he could be huge for us next season. Although, talking the talk about staying is one thing I'm sure we will see plenty of others doing the same before jumping on the first offer that comes under their greedy noses.

Nailed on for Mackems IMO.. Personally I like the guy. Think he will do very well there too. Should definatley look to him if Shearer goes tits up.

Called up by Cameroon? Geremi?!......... Wont have to worry about what league he is playing in if he picks Cameroon mind! http://uk.reuters.com/article/footballNews/idUKLP26857120090525?rpc=401&

He will go to Spurs/Man City or Spain IMO. That said Wenger might still take a punt at him. We will more than likely take the first offer that comes for him and sell him for half price.

Cant stand the guy. Would be banging on alot of doors and pleading before I considered approaching his.

What we will probably end up with: Goalkeepers: Harper, Krul, Foster, Soderberg Defence: Edgar, Raylor, Taylor, Kadar, Tozer (two experienced CB's a LB and RB brought in) Midfield: Butt, guthrie, Lua Lua, Vuckic, Adjei (2xLW, 1xRW 3xCM) Forwards: Ameobi, Carrol, Lovenkrands, Ranger, Baheng (two new strikers) What I'd like to see: Goalkeepers: Same Defenders: Beye, Taylor, Raylor, Bassong, Enrique - Kadar,Tozer promoted (two new CB's one experienced, 1 LB) Midfield: Jonas, Guthrie, Nolan, Duff, Lua Lua - Vucik/Adjei/inman if they are ready (buy 2x AMC, 1xDM 2xwingers) Forwards: Carrol, Xisco, lovenkrands, Smith, Ranger, baheng (bring in 2 experienced strikers) Im undecided on both Barton and Ameobi, both are tards but could prove usefull at a slightly reduced level, certainly the former.

GK: Harper, Krul, Foster, Defence: Beye, Bassong, Taylor, Enrique, R. Taylor Midfield: Guthrie, Duff, Jonas, Nolan (give him to January then flog him) Strikers: Martins, Lovenkrands, Carroll, Smith (see nolan) Obviously half of those players wont stick around, but thats who I'd want to stay. I shouldnt but i might even consider having Barton back too.

Times like these im bloody glad i moved to canada! i genuinly dont think i could of coped being back home with all the smug cunts rubbing my face in it. have only had people consoling here.

I think they should make every player film a public apology and put it on the official website.

Newcastle would like to thank Alan Shearer for his efforts and welcome back Joe Kinnear who is confident he can set things straight....

Administration? Ashley leaving? Shearer getting appointed at the mackems? Probably just a lame apology for getting relegated and a pledge that the club will set things right.

Knowing the unpredictive lifestyle being a Newcastle Fan holds it wouldnt suprise me if we get relegated again next year but win both the Carling and FA Cup.

Dont think any of them will have the balls to "Request a transfer". Pretty much the entire squad will be put up for sale anyways, which will save them the bother.

I'd like him. No idea why he doesn't get played. He usually looks a threat whenever I see him. Think he commited himself to staying with Boro yesterday or today. They will need him next year.

Or people could just look at the other threads on the board instead of making identical ones?
