Put everything you've got on Luque coming off the bench at Bolton and getting our 800th goal.. Its going to happen

What channels is this match on which are viewable in the UK? Art Sport doesn't seem to get Premiership games anymore....

Nobody mentioned £120,000 people (or have I missed something?). I'm not saying Oliver is right, but its long been a point of contention how much Owen actually earns per week. Some say £115,000, some say £105,000, some say £90,000, some say £80,000.

If by canny you mean delusional moron then yeah I agree

Honestly??!!

Err no, he looks more like John Turturro: http://film.onet.pl/_i/news/duze/j/john_turturro_1.jpg Jose Enrique http://img512.imageshack.us/img512/4264/010278334891500on6.gif John Turturro

He looked poor in one game out of position so he's average.. yeah great logic. Milner, in his correct position, is a very good player for his age. Good technique, good crosser and a good shot on him and still only 21 so he can keep improving. The idea that he only looks good against lesser teams is bollocks, sure you aren't talking about Duff?

I don't know what to say about that, this says it best

Riise and Finnan tbh. Either you're joking or you're just sick

I don't know, was Smith really Dyers replacement? Possibly.. Has Allardyce made any new comments on transfers since Dyer's deal collapsed?

Apparently so. Cacapa and Enrique make 2 if my maths is correct here, Dragutinovic would appear to be the probable 3rd... which leaves space for a potential right-back incoming, if you ask me. After Geremi's recent performances in the middle I want him kept there, if possible, and Solano/Taylor don't entirely convince me (although I reckon Taylor could be decent there, especially in the "harder" games where we need to be more solid at the back.) The documented bid for Steinsson of AZ Alkmaar and Faye from Bolton means we're sniffing around players who play there/can play there. Drago/Enrique and a new RB and - as I said the other day - I'll be doing cartwheels. That's what I thought but what happens if Dyer stays? Does it knock the potential right back idea on the head? If he stays then we don't buy a replacement for him. Its not going to have any affect in the other 4 players Allardyce wants obviously.

Sevilla are by far a better and more talented proposition right now than our own club, if he gets the money he wants he could easily decide to stay. There's no way Sevilla are going to triple his current wage. Also he wants to play in the Premiership and at 31 if that's going to happen it has to happen now. How do you know what they are going to pay him? Even if they doubled it he'd probably go for that imo. Unless he really really wants out, which he's never hinted at. Sevilla aren't a wealthy club, they're obviously already paying Dragutinovic what they can afford (he's an established player there). I really can't see them doubling that let alone triple it. Also as I said he's said he wants to play in the Premiership (but strangely most press seem only to quote his comment on financial rewards..)

Sevilla are by far a better and more talented proposition right now than our own club, if he gets the money he wants he could easily decide to stay. Are Sevilla going to triple his current wage though?, I very much doubt it. Also he wants to play in the Premiership and at 31 if that's going to happen it has to happen now.

We aren't signing Baines, we aren't even in talks with him...

That would have been a good post if anyon had said anything remotely like that. As things stand though, it's f****** s****! That's more appropriate.. Only taken you a week Teste. Didn't notice your post man, just saw it now that the thread got bumped.

Aye, but you do know we are also in talks with him don't you? Incase you've missed it: http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11678_2640553,00.html

Old news Skirge: http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/index.php?topic=43622.msg950674#msg950674

Very old news or a new story since the Times article Skirge? I'm still of the opinion its nonesense and the Times article seems to back that up by not even mentioning us at all.

Dragutinovic and Enrique already equal two left backs though. One a fast athletic young talent and the other a tough experienced international. Which is a hell of a lot better then having two young left backs IMO.

Exactly, I can believe that we were keeping our options open by going for both Baines and Enrique at the same time. But once the Enrique deal came off I'm sure we'd drop our interest in Baines.. Especially with Dragutinovic all but signed.

Spending £13 million on three dedicated left backs (to add to the one we already have, all be it a crap injury prone left back) is pretty lop sided squad building all things considered wouldn't you say Ian W?

We've had a bid accepted according to who though? Allardyce?, Newcastle?, Wigan? Until I hear concrete confirmation I'll take this as press nonesense. We don't need 4 left backs... I mean do you think he has some kind of bizarre left back fetish or what?

As well as the fact that we aren't in for him...
