sven as a non exec director of football would be a better plan, with bigsam as manager.

his crossing is ave, and his shooting:goal raton is 1in4. if he wants to win us something then he will have to improve. would prefer he was sold for 6.5m+ and we got some real talent in.

i cant believe that fulham beat liverpool, seems suspiscious to me...... blades are skating on thin ice ......gonna be some game that one vs wigan

looking at the stock market news........no appointment yet. they announced today that roeder had resigned. Nothing else as yet.

Anyone wanna make a poll of possible managers. # which will entertain us, but of course we all know that freddy hasnt heard of most of them!! personally.....Scolari plz tbh not sure if he understands the english game enough tho.

i rate him as under intelligent for the task, but i do believe he actually has a passion for the club. Unlike souness who was here for the money/ego boost. Roeder tried his best, but just didnt have enough going on between his lugs to make it work. Am sure he will do well managing a championship side, possibly getting them promotion. Is a manager whos capable of keeping a club in the premiership, bbut not higher than 15th...not good enough for us. Is best for both that we part company. good bye, and tbh i am relieved its over!

big sam and shearer both have big egos, is potentially a good partnership, but not sure they could flex enough to work together.

maybe he was offered a chance to reapply for the academy job if he resigned as manager?

blades may have thrown it away! cant believe fulham won.

he was a bit faster since his operation. His positioning is as bad as ever. Poor header, should have scored, def lackin confidence. imo loan him out, to sunderland

Well i think that might change if sheff u stay up. watch there shares on monday if they get a point at villa. Have a look at birminghman city this week. tbh i would think that those 2 clubs would be easier to take over than nufc. Every one knows that the halls/shepherds want top dollar for their shares.

mint )

only 3 teams with nothing to play for..... nufc, man city, and watford!! all the rest are fighting for points. Mathematically villa can stiill make europe, but very unlikely! maths says boro can still go down )))

looks like wham have to BEAT bolton to stay up. so its 96% imo that relegated are......watford, charlton.wham. Complete miracle is any other results.whams would have to beat, manu on game 38 and charlton have to beat liverpool very unlikely! as liverpool and arsenal are still fighting for 3rd spot. edit...am wrong wham could draw vs bolton and beat manu to stay up........hehe yeah right! quick put 100 quid on it!

look at how tight the uefa cup race is. 5 teams fighting for 3 spots, the 4th team gets intertoto.ie 8th place in the league. this scrap is even tighter than the relegation scrummage.

looking at the table i thinkits now mathematically impossible........highest we can get is 10th.

1-0 the blades. Could be safe now?

wow not doing much for charltons gd ! looking bad for them now.

I think this maybe whats sparked the rise..... http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/s/southampton/6600255.stm So any `loose` clubs who havent been hovered up recently are going up in price. Its not just nufc.

have to admit am more interested in the SUT share price....if they beat watford. that could get interesting )

dont see how you derive the 4.5 figure. Because the shares went up, deosnt mean they were the same buyer!! I am guess they went up because of the man city takeover, some investors are speculating that NU are next. (pretty naiive thinking if true) Wether the club is taken over or not, the club still gets the incresed revenue for next season, from the tv deal.

could only play a 433 against `lesser` sides eg easy cup games

the fa know the demand will outstrip supply.

"It's not as if we need the money badly." think you need to re examine the balance sheet actually. THe club does have some financial problems

we should sell these too. parker emre duff milner n'zogbia martins lameobi (loan luque) add ramage mid field we have doesnt work. It needs rebuilding. I am not sure if parker is good enough. His finishing is woefull so is he better as a dmf apparently thats not his game.....so what good is he?? we need to cashin on milner at 7m. like jeeenas hes never gonna be the worldclass player hes might have been. He is not good enough to perform at the highest lvl. personally id sell martins, if chelsea offer over 15m hes not got a good enough all round game to justify his position in the team. Hes a bench warmer imo. Unles he can somehow form a partnership with owen (which might happen) then we need to cash in on a big offer.
