  1. I know Roeder is a stupid, incompetent cretin, but he isn't THAT bad.
  2. Damned right. Huntington and Edgar haven't proved they aren't fit to wear the balck & white. Carr and Shambles have, umpteen times.
  3. Because we pay 3 or 4 times too much? Regardless of the fee we paid, Bramble is worth next to fuck all.
  4. Season Apps Mins Goals Shots on Crosses Assists Offside Conceded Clean Sheets 06/07 3 238 1 3 3 0 2 1 1 05/06 11 489 0 2 3 1 9 4 1 04/05 23 1854 4 14 9 0 2 28 4 03/04 25 2253 1 8 20 4 12 21 10 He's ace, him.
  5. What he said. it's a shame that a number of the players aren't up to the jpb at a team like NUFC (with reference to where we THINK we should be), but they are the best we have (fit) for now.
  6. I'll pay the fuckers train fare myself. Anything to get rid of the overpaid, overrated, amatuer piece fo shite. Moore is not a Premiership player fit for a team with aspirations of the top 10, but he's better than Shambles.
  7. Probably didn't want the big clubs forgetting about him.
  8. I think the fact the site has been shut down before is why we're so edgy about it. There was a whole debate on the issue a few months back. http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/index.php/topic,25729.0.html Since then we've been told to watch ourselves, by other sites that have received similar heat. It may all just be hot air, but we're not risking it. We also wouldn't do this just for the sake of it, despite what people may thing. I mean, they're bloody YouTube clips. Who gives a shit? But as pointless as these clips are, it would be equally as pointless, and stupid, to get the site in shit over it. Do they see us a threat? I doubt it. We're not the only NUFC site to receive the threats. So, just to clarify, there have been no warnings from the plc, the Premier League, or anyone else?
  9. Just for some idiot to post "we should sign Shevchenko, we have a chance, we're huge, and Chelsea love us"? Nah.
  10. Haven't you noticed the super strong relationship with Chelsea.. they have done us alot of favours in the past, thing about it. he's not settled doesnt suit there playing style/mourinho's tactics.. and Fat Freddy always goes for the sometimes audacious swoops Rooney, Ronaldinho, Kluivert.. think about it ! saying there is no chance is sooo off the mark funniest post. Ever.
  11. Shevchenko to NUFC - bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif bluelaugh.gif
  12. Poor finishing. Bramble is a disgrace, he really is. And every time he gets away with another glaring, hideous, amateur fuck up, people get the impression he actually has some ability.
  13. Wrong. There were numerous times when Shambles fucked it right up. A decent pair of forwards would have made him pay. He was very very lucky tonight. He is our 4th best centre back.
  14. Shit again. NOT a first team player for NUFC.
  15. We were ok today. Not great, but good. Which is FAR better than normal. And we should praise the lads for beating a team that is better than them. Well done NUFC.
  16. The fact that two okay performances (in the main, as there were some chunks of play where he disappeared totally), and people seem to think Dire is a fantastic player. He's a very average player, i'd never say he had no ability. But he's good at running fast and providing no end product, and thats about it. Dyer plays alright and its "Dyer For England, He's World Class".
  17. You THOUGHT he could, because you believed the hype. He has made maybe half a dozen decent crosses in his entire career for us. Look at his EPL stats. He's been shite.
  18. That's people coming round to how over-rated he is. (hopefully) No. Just shows how fickle some of us can be. Or how peopel are realising that he is a quite good player who looks great because he's playing alongside shite. Disagree. The way we play will obviously enhance/hinder the performances of players at our club. The way we started playing this season, Parker was made a key player and showed his quality. Now, however, we've changed (yes, we have, especially in our last two away games) and that's why the quality of his performances have dropped. This is why Henry excels at Arsenal and not so much when he plays for France. It's not because he's overrated at Arsenal or he isn't motivated enough for France, it's just because the style of play isn't suited to him. Perhaps. I think he's a good player, lot of quality. But not world class. But playing alongside our bunch of cretins, he looks like a genius.
  19. He's EPL class, certainly, and a good player but imho Bridge is a better defender.
  20. What he said, only i'd have sworn more.
  21. That's people coming round to how over-rated he is. (hopefully) No. Just shows how fickle some of us can be. Or how peopel are realising that he is a quite good player who looks great because he's playing alongside shite.
  22. I don't think anyone with much sense thinks Cashley is a great defender anyway. Bridge is a better defender. Althoguh Cole is better going forwards.
  23. But RELATIVELY, they have been poor. Many of the nationalities has had some ****ing proper failures, even just at this club - france (Boumwrong), Spain (Marcelino, Luque), Africa (Faye, Babayaro, Ameobi), Croatia (Maric), Ireland (Carr), et al. Oh, and the person who said Arteta was just average - unbelievable. Do you post just for the sake of posting? FFS nothing is black and white. Every nation will have decent players that have made it - France (Henry, Vieira), Spain (Alonso), Africa (Drogba, Essien), Ireland (Given, Duff) et al - and they will have players that haven't made it. I'd say Park has made it; getting regular appearances for the team on top of the table isn't something to look down upon. Sun made it till injury ruined this past couple of seasons for him but before that? A mainstay in a decent-ish Man City side. It's not a relative thing. If you ARE going to look at a 'relative' thing, then how many English players don't make it? Just count up all the players in the Championship, League 1 etc. etc. and you'll find out. Relatively, English players make the worst Premiership players but that's obviously an absurd statement and that's why we can't look at things relatively. Where did i say anything was black and white?? What i said was that many of the nationalities had some terrible players, even at our club. The inference was that it is impossible to select a nation that provides the worst players, because no country/countries provides entirely bad players. If you can't pick that up, i'm sorry. I'll try to spell things out in more simple terms next time. The only relative thing i mentioned was the Oriental one (a false grouping anyway, btw), and its true - relative to other nations/regions, the Orient has produced the weaker players.
