  1. I'm not convinced they'd be humped by half the teams in the English Prem. People have some insane expectations of Hull/Wolves/Stoke/Blackburn/Burnley/Portsmouth/Birmingham/Bolton/Wigan. Premier League is full of dross.
  2. I want them in tbh. Celtic have said they'd be willing to start lower, than the Prem so let them.
  3. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/8296638.stm Newcastle United's Joey Barton says things have been patched up between himself and Alan Shearer following their bust-up last season. Shearer suspended Barton from the club after the midfielder's sending-off against Liverpool in May. Interesting timing for this isn't it? With the whole Moat affair ongoing and Shearer being Moat's preferred option as Manager...
  4. Reina would get in any. Chelsea Arsenal Man Utd Man City Liverpool Spurs Everton Villa Not Chelsea or City
  5. Just wondering... Shouldn't this thread be called Kevin Keegan vs NUFC LTD, as described in the unquestionnable pdf..?
  6. Slight difference with Chez and bob (if that's what you're referring to) is that bob ignored literally every other aspect that was covered cos he hates Keegan innit. I'm not really referring to bob, just the concern many others (including myself) have professed over the £25m. Perhaps I asked for it with my rather incendiary first post
  7. Chez has shown the exact same concerns about this £25m claim as many others have, yet he's a fucking hero for it? This place is messed up. FWIW I agree with everything said in Chez's post, I'm just suprised that many others have now decided they agree with it..
  8. It won't be booked. John has keine funds, I'm apprehensive to pay for all you flaky bastards.
  9. I don't see there being a great change up. I forsee the standard 11, or as close to it as possible. Just cos it's capello and he'll want some team consistency. It's not like we get to play that often. Maybe he'll mix it up with subs or something.

    Keegan or Shearer?

    Me too. It was pretty fucking dire at times. Still, I blame Bolton more for that.
  11. SEMTEX

    Keegan or Shearer?

    He doesn't go to the games man, it's not worth asking, he's nothing to you.
  12. people still putting Lovenkrands on the LW? I didn't expect such nonsense from you tbf I'd consider him for left wing, but out of necessity more than will. We're hardly bustling with options. Still, I'd probably have that team but with Jonas in place of Lovenkrands.
  13. It must be clear to all but the most deluded of gibbons that KK perceviered to get the judgment and all the facts out into the open regardless of cost or settlement. if it were anybody else,everybody would say he was holding out for more money. you'd think if money was no object he'd just have told all to the press straight away and challenged ashley to sue. Kevin is holier than all of us though, he has no interest in money and materialistic goods, he simply fights the good fight to make the world a better place.
  14. Oh, and my title winning preference = Arsenal, City, Chelsea, Man Utd, Liverpool. (out of the 5 vaguely realistic contenders)
  15. Their first choice LB will probably end up being Aurelio when he's 100%, but in general, yeah, they're not nearly as strong as those around them. The problem is that Torres and Gerrard win matches by themselves on occasion.

    RIP sale thread.

    My cousin works or worked for them in Sweden, maybe she's ITK? she fit?
  17. I know it's about a 10k gap, but there's still atleast 35k loyal supporters. Oh without doubt the attendances are brilliant and hats off to those going. Im just saying those 1000s that are no longer going because we went down shouldnt even be welcomed back. Plenty of fans who dont live near Newcastle would still absolutely love to be at every game this season. if they wanted it that much they stick out studying in the likes if sunderland eh ? Oh :lol: I see what you did there :lol: Good one madras :lol: well ffs what do you expect when a club gets relegated,still pulls in over 40,000 for home games,sells out its away alloocation weeks in advance in a recession and you say it shows how many fickle fans we have. Im saying we were getting over 50k in Prem, it is nearly roughly 10k less now in the CCC and when we go back up you can bet it will be above 50k again. Are those fans refusing to stand by the team when we are in this league not fickle? Also I fully believe our fans are great, but only those who still support the team the same way they did before when we were in the Premiership. Put it like this. If I had a season ticket for years, then we went down I came on here and said "aw fuck this, I cant be arsed going to Championship games, im going to stop going until we get promoted again". I would get ripped apart on here for being a plastic supporter. To be fair, we "only" had an average attendance of 48000 last year. There were over 43000 at the game on Saturday, that's less than 5000 supporters not going. Taking into account that there's probably fewer away fans, you could probably make that about 4000 less Newcastle fans. Considering the situation with Ashley, I bet you there's loads of people not going to the game to protest, who don't want to give him any money (especially after the tribunals verdict had come on Friday). There's also the fact that there are a lot more games this season, people will not be able to afford going to all of them if they don't have a season ticket, especially in a recession. I would say the general feeling of SHIT is why the attendances are wank, Ashley to blame.
  18. I can't imagine it'll be too difficult to find this one for free... If I even care enough to watch it. We're qualified already, who gives a shit.
  19. But very amusing. Seeing Dirk Kuyt attempting anything technical is always a laugh. Glenn Roeder would fuck you up for saying that.
