Tend to agree.

Good enough for the bench?

Just doesn't look like Newcastle, have we ever had orange before in our entire history?

Not really, 57 goals was freakily high compared to averages. We'd be doing well to repeat it never mind exceed it. Points total, as has been pointed out, is a different matter.

Looks like Jose's put on a few pounds like, or just the posture/shirt?

How does the cost of living in Korea compare to England? And how much money is involved in top-end Korean football, they're surely on as much as the game can afford?

I don't mind signing those types of players if it means we're top 10 come end of the season. That would mean we're in a great position, my worry is that it will all backfire and we will have to panicbuy in January when we got all our signings along with HBA and Gosling injured for another 5 months. As it stands we're going to be relying almost entirely on Ben Arfa as our creative outlet next season. Given that he's coming back from a massive injury and was known as a very inconsistent performer even before that, it's not acceptable at all IMO. Really? News to me. And aren't Marveaux and Jonas creative outlets. And Cabaye is known for his passing.

Hope Enrique is still here to shackle him.

Got to quote this for posterity. I assume your finger slipped.. .. silly..

I've heard that about you.

http://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/newcastle-united/black-white/ben_arfa_must_fight_for_toon_spot_1_3565135 Pretty much guarantee Ben Arfa is the first name on the team sheet every week closely followed by Tiote and Cabaye. What a shit piece of sensationalist journalism.

He's just saying what he needs to say, no big deal one way or the other.

I would but mine would look more like Andy Reid Hope she never sees that post for your sake.

How they replace Friedel, Downing & Young will be massive...fairly ironic that two of those could be Given & N'Zogbia mind. Yep, I thought Villa would be as good as dead ducks next season the way things were panning out, but Zog and a couple of others could save them yet. Mind you, if Downing does not got to 'Pool and bearing in mind they missed Marveaux too might end up steaming in for N'Zogbia

Been away for 24 hrs and missed last nights entertainment. Midds, you were out of order mate, as an admin you should be setting an example, whatever the perceived provocation - not telling people to get fucked.

Whose car is that like, I saw it just two days ago heading into Darras and wondered about it then. (It's the reg that caught my eye)

Fantastic

Is it just me, or would these games be a LOT more entertaining if they played nude?

Agreed. 'Bout time something he said on twitter was 100% acceptable.

Navy on my (calibrated) monitor.

I just think the stripes on the shirt and the triangular patch on the shorts should be the same colour as the socks.

Probably only 30 minutes or the 1st half or something.

Early days, let's see what he's saying a month from now.

My feeling is Jonas and Barton will be vying for that right slot based on opposition. Or maybe that's what I would be trying. We'll know more come August I guess.
