Slack-jawed yokels.

Well their strikers are a shade better than ours right? Perhaps a cheeky bid for Earnshaw is in order.

That doesn't make any sense. How could pointing out the obvious blow the deal?

But if you read and believed the papers, you'd think that Newcastle is undergoing a crisis greater than that of Man City and Everton combined. ASHLEY LOOKS TO SELL!; KEEGAN TO QUIT!; FANS VOTING WITH THEIR FEET! THE (EVER-ASTUTE) FERDINAND CHOOSES SUNDERLAND OVER THE TOON!

He's a Celestine Babayaro-Scottie Parker-Damien Duff-Geremi type signing. So, yes. He is a wow signing.

No better than Milner. Quite possibly worse. Definitely worse. Headless chicken.

The club won one game last season with Milner playing on the right-- Stoke City 4-1 Early on he was on the left with Geremi on the right.

Yes. I've always admired the way he gave his all for the team even after he was jerked around the Villa move. Really respect him as a man. And I long believed that he would prove his doubters wrong. But the more he played, the more convinced I became that the doubters were right all along. We were a better team with Geremi on the right. We can do better. Good luck to him.

Daydreaming.... Milner > Villa Barry > Pool Alonso > Toon yeah, well I can dream.

Delighted. He put on a damn good show against Coventry and we'll get fair money for him. We're better off starting Jonas, N'Zogbia, and Enrique.

And play Coventry every week!

Enrique's having a blinder. Hopefully it will mean more of Enrique at LB and Zoggy at LW. They've both been ace so far. Jonas at RW please. This.

Yes, but hopefully the idea of playing him in the midfield has been put to rest.

"...the only thing he doesn't do is hit the target."

Smile ffs.

I like the purple kit. Surprised.

Can't see Arsenal's hesitation to spend £16m for Xabi Alonso. Surely if he was willing to come to Newcastle, Ashley would. No?

We've only given him a one year deal so I wasn't expecting him to be any good. Is he 1st choice for Denmark or not? Nah, second choice behind Per Krøldrup.

Re: Diego I was wondering if hoping we had a bid in for someone at the Olympics at Bejing. Certainly, Diego would count as a wow signing.

Let's just say that we rate foreign players that can cross the ball higher than Milner.

Think we could get 300 more before the Bolton game?

Great read.

No, not now.
