SEMTEX

TBH If England had qualified for Euro 2008, Russia wouldn't have. Arshavin wouldn't have been thrust into the limelight. Sam Allardyce would've signed him, Arshavin would've scored 45 goals and we would've won the league. Sam would then have won manager of the year and secured his knighthood. NOW who couldn't give a fuck if England win... hhuuuuHH??

yawn. who gives a toss if its bending the rules. do you think we would've signed messi or some such? window = wank

Our squad is NOT fine! It's shite! The manager is a whole new level of shite, yes.. but the squad is shite too!

I guess I'll have to get another third kit now. I reckon 'Wiafe Danquah' is the way forward.

Why ? Sunderlands went up I would just assume that. Obviously its not fact, but they'd have some cheek. Even if the mackem scum did it... doesn't mean we should! I'm not a season ticket holder, I've no great idea... but I'd be alot more likely to become a season ticket holder if we got relegated (plus I'm not the student pauper I once was)

if oh yeah.. if. erm.. oops?

tbh.. I don't know the ins and outs of the discounts here, but when we get relegated, season tickets WILL be cheaper... surely any discount will be screwed by this?

If you debate the quality of that list of players then you've issues.

One would imagine so!

OMGZ 1651: Rotherham have completed the signing of striker Jamie Clarke from Premier League side Blackburn Rovers.

lies

I believe Tim Sherwood was re-signed 6 months ago!

Disagree. No agenda. I just think he has no product. Yes he's a midfielder who runs at players, but generally fails.

... He's a bit old for a 4 year deal? couldn't we at least try a 2 year contract?

source? ssn?

FUCK OFF. please.

Woeful defending by £12m Bridge. Given's asking price should go up to £400m if Wayne Bridge is worth 12.

No. This thread is retarded.

Money. That's really why it's hard to have respect for Given in this move. If a top 4 side were in for him fine, thanks for a job well done hope you go win a medal. But there is no promises that Man City will be in the top 8 next year, never mind the top 4. For all we know Shay could be replaced by the time they get anywhere near the Champions League. It's all about the money. And that's what makes it so disappointing. I think that is absolute shite. He's going there cos it has a sign of promise. There is no chance of him getting in a top 4 team so he needs to find a team that has a chance of getting somewhere. The only teams that have a vague chance of getting there are Villa/Man City. The reason Man City have a chance is because of money, yes, but thats not why he's going there imo. Anyone who thinks a move to Man City is a 'sideways' move from Newcastle United in its current state, is deluded.

Where's that from? http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/d/derby_county/7860652.stm

Giles Barnes on loan at Fulham, view to permanent move. Should've taken a chance on that imo. Little risk.

If we can get a decent price from a non-uk team, great. Else, see reserves.

Yeah, Okocha, Djorkaeff, Hierro, Jaaskelainen - shit they were! Not forgetting Gary Speed of course. Oh hang on - he came from you. Stop reading the redtops and think for yourself. Haha, cos Newcastle re-signing Gary Speed from Bolton would've been tres exciting news.

No doubt he's played shit for years, but I've seen him score at least 1 good goal in those years. Therefore he's better than Smith/Geremi/Butt. If Bolton fans think otherwise, how about we give them all those players and we get Nolan. I'd accept that trade tbh.

FOD
