I'm gonna be the first to finally ask: did we need a new thread for this?

The alternative thought process is that the players are willing at the moment because they're still expecting (or hoping for) Shearer to come in and/or things to change one way or another. They're trying to impress. Will they still be responding to Hughton in a couple of months? As long as we keep winning and sit at the top of the league or there abouts, I imagine they will. If times get tough, then I'm not so sure. I think this is the main reservation about Hughton. He seems a softly spoken character and not a natural at firing people up or kicking ass in times of trouble. I imagine it's why he's chosen to be a coach rather than a manager. He seems to be growing in confidence, but I have my doubts about whether he's going to be a good long term bet. One problem with a coach becoming a manager is the relationship that they have with the players. A coach is not as distant as a manager, and at first that extra bit of palliness can be a help in drawing everyone together. That's what happened with McFaul and Roeder at first, and now Hughton. The trouble then comes when the manager has to bring new players in, and drop his old mates. They then feel they've been let down by someone who they put into the job. It's a tricky decision, but on balance I'd now go for Hughton providing he really wants the job and is prepared to adjust to the new role. I don't think Shearer did himself any favours a few weeks ago before the WBA game, when he talked publicly about the limitations of certain players. lol... what did he say? anyone got a linky? "That Butt's fuckin' shite like, thinks he's Maradona..."

I think it's actually his voice. Very weird orator.

QFT. JFK!

ITKs still maintaining it's a done deal.

Can someone please give us some answers after this retarded summer? No plans for the season, no new signings (Lovenkrands and Simpson, whee!), and players not replaced. More players I'm sure to leave in January. No full-time manager appointed yet. Club still on the market. Wow. Just when you thought Ashley couldn't fuck things up more he has gone ahead and done just that. Being top of the league is a convenient veil to hide behind, eh? Let's pray for no injuries, shall we, and for the players to keep the passion up. *Sigh.* C.U.N.T.

Yes, if only to put pressure up the heirarchy about just WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WITH THIS CLUB. Aside from that, Hughton's done a decent job so far.

Heart in the mouth, now?

Smith: This is SPARTA!

Nile Ranger is FUCKING SICK. This kid needs some good coaching and nurturing. Man, how we wish we could provide that!

MOTHERFUCK!@!@2SILDFLDSFKDFDF

Is all commentary for Championship games littered with all these obscure references to past Premiership events in the playing teams' history?

Is Gallagher the cunt who scored on us with the Hand of a Lesser God with Blackburn?

Hopefully they can do like what someone said the Citeh owners did, sign a legal agreement so that they can effectively start running the club immediatly whilst all the paperwork is still being sorted out. Comparing Newcastle to the sanity and common sense found at other clubs is like comparing two extremes. Please stop doing that, and your total understanding of Newcastle (and namely Ashley and his whores) will increase tenfold, giving you peace of mind as an added bonus.

Mahjoob? *rofl*

No, but since my source is Allah, he can't be wrong. And if you dare question his ITK information, you know what's coming to you.

Done deal. Just got word. Monday's the day.

No faith in the fat cunt whatsoever. He's let us down so many times in staggering proportions that I'm still waiting for him to take the club off the market.

The "human rights act" is one of main reasons WHY they do it. Their "rights" to attack others. It's what you get when you let the politically correct and the lawyers make laws. The Guardianista vermin are behind most things that enrage the people - and this government grovel to them, and ask how high they should jump. Phillip, how would you define the concept of free will? I mean you personally, not how 'Guardianistas' define it.

FFS, it's written that he's going to do well for them. We're toon fans, have to get used to soul-shattering disappointments and by now should've learned to take injustice as the norm. Us getting relegated by a single point being the case in point. Calling for Sheph's head and ending up with Ashley. Shearer coming to toon and us not winning shit for him. List can go on, as we all know. We should stop giving a flying fuck about the midget, but it's tough as it hurts to see him do well, but meh. All part and parcel of being a toon fan.

Always a woman involved -- always.

Could someone post that head-in-hands image?

Unfortunately no matter how happy we are of his failure, Man U don't lose anything. They paid nought for him. We're still, and will remain, the biggest suckers in history for his deal.

I thought our NUSC sources confirmed a fans' takeover is wholly improbable, and something maybe to look into in the future, but not right now. As CNN's new line goes: "Just sayin'..."
