  1. Because he's 26 and never played higher than the Championship he has absolutely no chance of being decent? or improving? :facepalm:

     

    He can improve obviously,  but to the point where he'll improve our first 11?  Is he going to be better then Barton & Tiote?

  2. I know we like signing freebies which is all lovely,  but if he's already playing in the championship at 26,  is he going to improve or be anything better then we already have?  Doesn't seem that logical,  but then again,  neither did Perch.

  3. Not seen a thread on this yet, and had a search.  I know its only Talksport,  but they seem fairly convinced we've got him.

     

     

    Newcastle are set to beat Bolton in the race to sign Darren Pratley.

    The Swansea midfielder will be a free agent after the Play-Off final against Reading on Monday and Owen Coyle had hoped to snap up the 26-year-old.

    But Newcastle have offered the former Fulham man a four-year deal on better terms than Bolton and he will move to St James' Park even if Swansea make the Premier League by beating Reading in Monday's Play-Off final at Wembley.

    Pratley has hit 12 goals for Brendan Rodgers' side this season and is set to be Alan Pardew's first acquisition of the summer.

    Don't know a lot about him if I'm honest.

  4. @piersmorgan Piers Stefan Pughe-Morgan remind me what happened for you to get fired from that wonderful newspaper you used to work for?

     

    @piersmorgan So it was a genuine reason and not that they just thought you were a tosser like the rest of us?

     

    @piersmorgan Change your banter big jugs, you sad bastards have been using that one for months now.

     

     

    He's on the verge!

  5. Hitchin's most famous football product is either Matt Oakley or Andrew fotiadis but we have now produced Jack Wilshire (despite being born in a stevenage hospital is a hitchin boy ;)

     

    Wilshire is a stevenage lad,  fact!  Also,  thought Oakley was from Letchworth?

    "The ­player from Hitchin, Herts, accepted a police caution after Brian reported him."

     

    ;)

     

     

    That family spokesperson will be very chummy with the press over the next few years mind.

     

    Thanks man,  I realised that a couple of weeks later,  but I'm glad you waited over a year to put me right on it.  Still bitter over the 3-1 cup game? ;)

  6. Not football related,  but cracked up at these 2 from Andrew Flintoff tonight;

    Wouldn't mind but this is the second time this has happened ! Knob !    :lol:

  7. Fact is,  he was under a 5 year contract. It's not a Charlie Adam situation whereby we have to let him go soon before his value goes down. There's absolutely no fucking reason they had to sell because he wanted a new deal. He was under contract for 5 more years regardless. They could have offerered an improved one in the summer if they wished,  to keep him happy but the fact that they're making it out like they had no choice but to let him go is total bollocks. They chose to take the cash.

  8. The youngster's exploits have seen him being linked in the media with a move away from the Toon. But he insists that he intends to stay at the club for the remainder of his career.

     

    "It's good to hear teams are talking about you and other people are talking about you," said Carroll. "But the five-year deal I've just signed is serious.

     

    "I wouldn't have signed it if I wanted to move somewhere else.

     

    "It doesn't matter what other people or other teams are saying. This is the club I wanted to sign for.

     

    "When I was younger this is what I wanted to do.

     

    "Just 18 months ago I dreamt of all this.

     

    "Now I've got it I need to stay here and keep doing what I'm doing.

     

    "I signed a new contract and I want to be here for the rest of my life.

     

     

     

    Less then 2 fucking months ago.
