The article said that he was signed as "competition" to Jonas.

Talented writer though, she was the editor of the student press in my final year and had an internship with the Guardian so why she's decided to get a job at the Daily Mail, I don't know.

Someone I know(uni coursemate) is going to be working at the Daily Mail in the near future, not a sports writer though but still....

Samuel: what a t***.

This as well.

Aye. Same here.

Indeed.

All that needs to happen is FIFA's sponsors walking away.....................unlikely to happen though.

I like it.

I'm liking the thread's title change

Looks like we're going to be stuck with Shola for the foreseeable future But from the transfer rumour thread: And Sammy's tweet: Mind you Sammy could easily ask Shola

As dodgy as that is, it's fantastic that he's gone. FIFA and CONCACAF in particular will be much better now they're rid of that cancer.

It's actually happening???

Bizarrely enough this was the top result when I Googled it: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufchistory/number9stats.shtml Since Shearer there's just been Martins and Carroll. Carroll had the honour of wearing the Newcastle number 9 shirt and he decided to go to Liverpool ? What an idiot he is (or probably is) !

Pretty much resigned to him going really. If we have made a bid for M'Bengue then we're obviously already looking for Jose's replacement.

No thanks, apparently he's had contact from Arsenal and Chelsea. Think he's too far up his own arse.

IIRC, think we only made an enquiry and we were told that a €13 million would have to be made.

This. I really can't see us paying anything over £10 million for him. Might as well save that money for Sturridge (who I now hear is worth £10 million!?!) or another striker.

As more and more days go by, I'm starting to think that N'Zogbia won't be signing for us. Hope I'm completely wrong though.

I don't know what i'm going suppose to love but one thing is sure : I really love all your french avatars (espicially yours Ketsbaias Shiny Head ) So if you keep on this you all have to learn how to speak french, no ? Unfortunately for me, i don't even know how to put an avatar ! Yes i know, i'm a girl... I haven't spoken French since university (I graduated last year in French and Economics) and the signings we've made from Ligue 1 have given me a chance to rediscover French! Good news for me personally. So it explains why you speak french so well... I now understand. What were you studying ? (if it is not indiscret) I studied French and Economics, the French got a bit hard in my final year at university though! Oh it is great ! I'm also studying Economics (i've just finished my fourth year) in the Sorbonne in Paris, if you know ? Cool! I don't know of Sorbonne unfortunately! I've heard of the place but I don't know much about the universities there! I haven't really been to many places in France though! I did study at Bordeaux Ecole de Management in my third year - good timing too, it was the year when Bordeaux won Ligue 1!

@Joey7Barton Joseph Barton am supporting them by being a realist....definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again yet expecting different results!
