  1. That goal of Cisse........Shola has never ever scored a goal like that in his entire career with us

    Harry Redknapp

    Can see why he wanted to stay at Portsmouth rather than come to us. No wonder they went bust This is the same honest guy who released the details of Ba's get out clause to the media
  3. Whats in a name?? we are still NUFC what does it matter. Don't tell me I'm not a true supporter because I'm a born and bred geordie and supported the club fo nearly 60 years. Times change, it's time to move on, we are in a big money business initially due to Sky TV things have changed. To be honest I was very anti Ashley but credit where it's due he has dug the club out of a massive hole left by Freddy Shepherd & Co, we have brought in some geat 'unknown' players and eventually some stability. Time would bew better spent supporting Ashley and taking the blinkers off.
  4. Couldn't care less what the stadium is called, the main priority is the team and that is improving dramatically thanks to Mr Ashley & Co. We are enjoying a nice period of stability, pretty much unheard of with NUFC so lets not spoil it over a little issue like the name. Are we the only club in the football league with a ground called St James Park? are we the only 'Magpies' Get real............
  5. We are becoming one of the best run clubs in the Premiership. No throwing away ludicrous money at big names and egos. It chokes me to say this but I believe Ashley has got it right.
  6. Ashley is a very astute buisness man and will have learned a lot from his previous mistakes at NUFC. The hughton thing is disappointing but, was he the right man long term? I don't think so. I think that unlike before, Ashley will have his man in the bag already, possibly Jol, I hope so. Jol did a fantastic job at Spurs and their football was a pleasure to watch. What knackered that was the DOF bringing in players who Jol didn't want. You may hate Ashley but he is no ones fool, he has a lot of money invested at NUFC and he is not going to risk another relegation
  7. It's all so obvious, it'll be Ashleys favourite son........Alan Smith

    Hatem Ben Arfa

    I remeber something I read when City signed De Jong, he was known at his previous club as 'the animal' or some phrase like that. Man City and the player were denying that he was a dirty player. Best I can do is wish the very worst on him
  9. Shola reminds me of of Ronaldinho (not sure of the spelling) after seeing last nights game. They are both lazy Work rate zero Slightest touch and they are on there arse appealing to the ref Ronaldinho can create something out of nothing..........Amebobi can create nothing out of something. I'd be happy to never see him in a NUFC shirt ever again.
  10. With the exception of maybe 3 games this season, we have always looked second best to the opposition and somehow got a result. When Ashley sacked Big Sam he made comments about the style of play under Allardyce wasn't acceptable. I wonder what he thinks of it now, big hoof up the middle from any angle. It is only because the quality of finishing in this league is so poor that we have not conceded goals and we are where we are. Should we get promoted we'll be in for a few hammerings under Hughton with his wonderful vision and tactical know how and we'll be straight back down
  11. The team is a reflection of the manager, boring, no flare, no fucking idea, no confidence and lucky. Yes lucky because it is only because Houghton didn't rock the boat during all the upheaval that he was given the job. No other club on the planet would have wanted him as manager. If we get lucky and get promoted, then he will be cruelly exposed
  12. I still wouldn't be surprised if Colocini is sold at the last minute to pay for all of this, it would be good business too.
  13. I may live down south but I was born and bred in Newcastle leaving there when I was in my late 20's. Perhaps you should add another catagory i.e. Born in North East but now live
  14. Too complacent, too casual. Sound asleep to close down the wide man with the first goal, Harper should never have lost that ball for the second.

    DEF NO A young Allardyce, work work work, all huff and puff. Never won anything and never will.
  16. Be better off wearing a gag or plaster over his gob to stop him trying to sound smart.
  17. Just read that Viduka could be returning to us or the smoggies on a pay as you play deal
  18. This allows Ashley to say " I have done everything possible to facilitate the takeover but unfortunately Barry could not get the backing needed. As a result I am now taking the club off the market to give some stability"
  19. Another meaningless goal by Owen. How many big goals did he score for us to give us a 1-0 or score against the top teams? Not many I think. Wigan were already on their knees and wiped out when he came on making scoring a lot easier. The man's a greedy little shit
  20. The profit of Sports Direct were down 91% after write downs on property etc. The company still made a profit and were reported as saying that they were happy with figures and that trading was 'solid' Ashley is a hard headed man at best. A friend of mine who has done buisness with Ashley in the past said to me 'I wouldn't say he was dishonest but I wouldn't trust him'
  21. I posted this back in January!!!! 'Ive been thinking about this scenario for some weeks now and I just wonder. Ashley has the reputation of being a really hard headed ruthless buisness man who steamrollers his way through deals. Now, he has tried to sell the club and had he done so at his price of circa 4mil he could have stuck two fingers up to the geordie supporters saying 'I've made 200mil out of you lot'. Unfortunately for him that has not happened so he is left with the club. I just wonder if he is hard headed enough to run the club into the ground thinking 'I'll teach those geordie bastards not to tell me what to do' Okay, so he gets a 100mil less for the club but whats a 100mil to him. His Sports Direct have shown big increase in sales and profits despite the credit crunch, they also made £30mil on currency trading. It worries me that this man is self centred enough to do this and destroy our club for many years to come. If he comes up with big changes and big money this month then that may convince me otherwise but at the moment I don't see it happening '

    In Redknapps first managerial spell at West Ham he bought a load of unheard of foreign players and spent a lot of money. He was probably one of the first to bring in a load of foreign players. Anyway, the whole lot turned out to be utter crap and they were pretty much all got rid of and he finished up buying another team of players. At the time he was heavily criticised for these foreign purchases.
  23. 3 more points and we are safe. Hull and the Smogs will not get any more points, I HOPE
  24. The reason we are in this present predicament is down to Sam Allardyce. If he had delivered, or even shown signs of delivering all of this wouldn't have happened. There would have been no KK, no major upheavals, no trying to sell the club and we could probably have bought a couple of decent players with what all that has cost. It is because of his total failure that the reputation of this club has become so tarnished
