  1. I really like the guy and I respect him a lot. I'd prefer it if he finished his career as a Newcastle United player especially after being at the club for such a long time and being one of our longest serving players. I also still see him as a decent enough number 2 for us. Blind loyalty from my part if you want. But I suppose that from his point of view, he doesn't have long left in his career, so ending it on a high (ie. being number 1 at another club) is the best thing for him to do. I fail to see why anyone would get sentinmental about someone so over confident and under talented who was quite happy to sit on his fat arse for varnigh 20 years and pick up a good wedge for f*** all. He did try and leave but Sir Bobby didn't want him to and from my understanding, Harper was offered a wage higher than the average back up keeper would make. When Shay did get injured, Harper didn't do a bad of job as his understudy. But I especially took a liking to him when we were in the Championship, he was safe hands for me back then. He has been here for ages too and that adds to my sentiment for some reason. Each to their own why they like/not like Harper I suppose.

  3. Any injuries to them would be nice too like
  4. Another man sent off for Estonia. Go on then Ireland, get a 4th!
  5. 3-0. That's Ireland pretty much heading to the Euros next year.

    I think people on Twitter are getting confused. Twitterers are linking this with the BBC article that is quoted on the last page. It looks like Northern Rock haven't pulled their sponsorship with "immediate effect". Instead, NR have ended their sponsorship "early" but that does not necessarily mean immediate effect does it? The article said that the contract was signed in January 2010 and that they could activate a "get-out clause" after 2 years (presumably January 2012) so the way I see it, we have 2 more months of Northern Rock being on our shirts.
  7. Making it hard for yourselves eh?

    Urgh, the thought of that happening Though, I guess it wouldn't be a surprise to see SD on the shirts if the Twitter rumour is true.
  9. Ireland should really finish it off in the second half.
  10. Think we need to win 2 or 3 nil tonight myself. Yeah, I reckon 2-0 would be the ideal result.
  11. Surely Ireland should win now. Another goal would be nice like.
  12. Red card for Estonia I see.
  13. Touché. Guess with tonight, the result is what matters for Ireland.
  14. Been quite a s*** game tbh.
  15. Let's see how this goes.....
  16. An injury to Dzeko would be nice
  17. I'm sure Peter Reid was Thailand manager at some point.
