I've never seen a post saying that Cisse isn't trying hard enough. I think 99% of people on here recognise that he just needs a couple of goals to get him going again. Straw man. A couple of goals like tonight, you mean.

Just watch the chance Bale missed in the first half tonight. He's shite him...

At no point during that final move did Shola set foot in the box. Ambling about without a care in the f****in' world. Meanwhile, Cisse makes up 20 yards on a hunch and almost gets us a priceless winner, yet people slag him...

I was instinctively convinced this useless f****r With Benny back, I'd fancy us to score over there. What's their pitch like? We're abysmal on poor pitches. Should be decent if it was a Euro2012 venue?

With Benny back, I'd fancy us to score over there.

Sissoko v Papa. That would be some rumble...

How much better are we with Marveaux on...

From RTG re their attendance yesterday (despite widespread talk of freebies having been handed out)... "46,400 and summit, tremendous effort. Best fans in the world in terms of numbers in comparison to success."

Still trying to get my head round anyone genuinely believing Andy Carroll is no better than Danny Graham. For his size, Carroll is also no slouch. Ask Michael Turner and Titus. How easily folk on here forget.

Caulkin was the first to shed light on today's happy development.

Yes. Personally I think it's Haidara, he looks short and stocky. Definitely NUFC property - the guy with the moustache on the extreme left is a long-time club security guard.

Mira scored via a deflection in a 2-2 draw at Man Utd too, I recall. Absurd player, really. Would shoot from anywhere. Out Oba'd Oba. I still have my NUFC/Brazil ski hat...

I've seen livelier passengers than Jonas in the disabled seats.

Lets hope It's a lad. Get a pre contract signed. The son he already has started training with our U7 academy kids aged 5. A right little hard nut, according to a lad I know who coached him.

Ollie Bainbridge. Aged 8. Plays for Harton & Westoe Vipers. Already swapped SAFC Academy for Man City. Best young player North East scouts have seen for a decade, apparently.

If we were to loan Lescott, for example, until May, I wouldn't be too against that. Still need another centre-back on top of that though. Lescott makes perfect sense to try and get on a loan, we really need to try and make that happen. No way will we stump up anything significant for his wages. He's on almost 100k-a-week...

Still with this s***, man. Tbf didn't you say yesterday that you don't trust them either? I did, yes. That doesn't mean that I'll indulge in conspiracy theories. It's not a last minute, deadline day, bid for a player we had no chance of getting. Our interest has been widely reported, in local, national and French media. There doesn't appear to be any suggestion that we're not actively trying to secure a replacement for Ba, and it'd be absolute suicide to not do so. What about theory based on the evidence of previous transfer windows?

Richard Dunne is woeful, worse than Williamson. Not that there's any truth in it like. I assure you, he's not.

Davie Provan still mentioned the blindingly obvious re Santon/Cisse there. Tool.

So he was waiting to see if Everton gained an advantage there - facing their own goal, in their own box. Ffs Atkinson.

Christ, it's excruciating watching Williamson play in the Premier League.

Inches wide. MANY inches.

Don't be daft man it was Tiote's fault apparently. Obertan has to take responsibility. Why turn away from a modern football? Gutless.

You mention O'Neill, at half time on Saturday he had the mackems above us in the league and he's been slaughtered on here for being s****. But how much did he get to spend this summer?
