If i was Chris Morgan I would cite the time he got punched by Lee McCulloch and didn't go looking to get the law involved.

Scored a fair few girls, i recog his name from Soccer Saturday

Our players must spend more time standing still on the ball than any others, particularly the full backs

took it well. Considering the barracking he's received from Spurs fans he's scored a fair few this season.

Constantly scored past us and denied us the best chance we had of winning silverwear over recent time

Fucking hate Gus Poyet.

Going to have to be upto scratch in closing down midfield. Got a few nice ball players in there (Murphy, Bullard, Davies) who can feed Johnson down the channels. and have a pop from distance. Andy Johnson i can see being the type of player Colo should thrive against as he looks a lot better when facing the nippier forward than than the big man.

Nice local trip. Good luck to them though.

Nice one Spartans, lets hope they get to the 3rd round.

Blyth have just kicked off versus Shrewsbury n all. Be good if they could get a shock.

beautiful run from Walcott to pull him out but lousy defending none the less, should've gone towards the ball

that on Sultana or something? No need for it to be on early otherwise.

Aye but Spurs and that were in the Waffa whereas we're not

Aye its shite. Can't make it up for night matches which has forced me to miss a couple of games this season.

Best half of football I've watched in a long long time. Classic Premiership.

Financial Times - WHAT WAS BARTON'S ROLE IN ICELANDIC BANKING COLLAPSE ? Independent -Joey Barton and the effect he is having on the worlds climate

Non-story central.

Be happy with a draw, same 11 that started Villa game and take it from there. Have Owen, Zog, Geremi, Guthrie on the bench to bring on if we're playing gash.

That article has piles of shite written all over it. Why mention chanting for your teams manager. Just cos u got sworn at by him Why even bring up the Barton 'incident' pathetic shite again Crap ratings. Horrible anti newcastle tone. 'Perhaps that incident unsettled Agbonlahor because soon after he missed the best chance of the half when former Newcastle winger Milner created a lovely opening down the Villa right. The £12million signing, who was booed by home fans, skipped away from Jose Enrique with ease before playing a tempting ball across goal which Agbonlahor somehow allowed to slip through his legs.' Sick 'Fortunately for Barton, the officials missed all the nonsense, but the television cameras did not and the pair continued to clash for the rest of the first period. ' Bollocks 'Newcastle were lucky to still have 11 men on the pitch after referee Steve Bennett had missed an unsavoury incident involving Joey Barton, which could have resulted in another red card for the midfielder and a six-match ban. ' Eh? Why print this shit? At least The Guardian's version is spot on: "Barton's critics claimed he had enjoyed a significant escape after becoming embroiled in a minor contretemps with Gabriel Agbonlahor. Shortly after being bundled over by the Villa forward as they challenged for the ball, the Newcastle midfielder raised a hand, flicked his wrist and gently swiped Agbonlahor on the nose with a stroke of his palm. The contact was minimal, fleeting and was surely intended as a joke but Middlesbrough's Jérémie Aliadière was sent off for doing something very similar last season. Moreover, Barton currently has a suspended six-game Football Association ban hanging over him and, with his considerable previous, he cannot afford to be on anything but his best behaviour. Amid all the excitement Kinnear had lost his voice, so Chris Hughton conducted the post-match duties. "We haven't discussed it," said Newcastle's first-team coach. "But we are aware that any incident with Joey is going to be blown up out of all proportion." While raising hands on a football pitch is never wise, it is also true that had any other player done something similar it would barely have merited a mention. That said the former referee Graham Poll, now a TV pundit, claimed Barton struck an opponent and consequently should have been dismissed. Moreover Poll was convinced that, had the referee seen the incident properly, he would have given Barton his marching orders. If he did not spot anything untoward and explains this in his report, however, the FA could, in theory, act retrospectively on video evidence. Perhaps Agbonlahor can cite "post-Barton trauma'"as an excuse when he is asked to explain the sitter he missed shortly afterwards following James Milner's dodging of Fabricio Coloccini and subsequent fine cross. By then Martin Laursen had headed against a post from a Gareth Barry centre and a meaty tackle from Steven Taylor had denied Milner as Newcastle struggled to cope with Villa's speed on the break." http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2008/nov/04/premierleague-newcastleunited written by Wheez Keys Louise n all

Yesterday showed how we've missed Barton. Great to have a bit of drive going forward in midfield. Barton, Jonas, Martins and Stroller were all brilliant yesterday. A fine team performance against a poor Villa team, which highlights how far the top4 are ahead of the rest really as i don't think we'd have won if we'd been playing one of them on a bad day.

is the correct answer

I agree we don't need to be over attack we just need to pressure them high up when they have the ball. Only Barry and A.Young are what i would class as good passing players, the rest will be prone to errors if they are hurried. We need to be offensive without being irresponsible.

1 - no 2 & 3 - could lead to an easy Villa win.

In terms of getting people in its impossible to say until we know what manager/owner etc we're going to have. Ashley has said we won't be spending if he's in charge so it would be loans only if anything. Perhaps we could go for Carlos Vela or Rafael but id be suprised if people wanted to loan players to a struggling team. Championship wise the only player i can think of off the top of my head that might be worth going for would be Michael Kightly.

Can't defend for shit. Positionally all over the place.
