Colos Short and Curlies

I'm sure I've seen something about PVA saying 'Newcastle? Why Not if Enrique leaves'

There's someone missing from these line ups. Nolan will be a mainstay of the team next year like it or not, as much as I'd love to see Jonas, Ben Arfa and Zoggy roaming behind a lone striker I can't see a system to fit them all in with Nolan

Wasn't Shola's debut against Chelsea as well?

No great surprise though, busines end of the season and a potential Championship to play for

Lets just hope Larry isn't Jonas' nickname for Enrique

Messing around on Pro Evo last night :-) Zog - HBA - Jonas Huntelaar Was absolute dynamite

More to the point, the time will come where Lousie goes to bed with Jamie and wakes up with Harry.

Uefa rules. Wembley needs to be unused for 2 weeks prior to the champ league final

How much are tickets on average for MLS games? Fancy taking in a couple of New England games if I'm sent to Boston in June/July.

He wouldn't look out of place in a top 4 team, but he probably has more freedom in a team in our position to get forward at times and maybe take risks at the back that make him look good

Excuse my lack of knowledge of the geography of the US, but if I were to be staying in Boston, how accessible would any of the games be for me to get to? Would it be possible to do any with travel there and back same day?

Regardless of the scoreline and who's playing, midday on a Sunday is a shit time for a game.

Say you're a defender, would you panic if Nile Ranger was through on to your goal? Aye, would hate to be the first Prem defence he scores past

Didn't they recently test a few possible solutions and none of them were 100% reliable? If you are going to have technology it has to be 100% relaible (otherwise what's the point and could lead to manufacturers getting sued etc) and you need to know where to draw the line - is it goals only? Incidents in the penalty box? Would you still have post match trial by TV? Why should the decision for a penalty be any more important than a free kick on the edge of the box or a corner (hell even a throw in if you are Stoke)? I'm personally against it - daft decisions are part of football, if you want a sterile clinical result go and put the playstation on.

Go to the football 365 home page, ignore the Shola story but check out the headline about Man City and the Munich chants

On my river 'They're saying something about him being greedy' Way to sugar-coat it commentator man

And Giggs doesn't score

Voted yes - Personally I don't agree with it, but the way football is at the moment then it is acceptable unfortunately. Goals not give, leg breaking tackles unpunished, blatent targetting of a player going unpunished, The FA bottling post game punishments, perceived homeism/bigteamism from referees Thats just 5 examples of what goes on in football, from which it is understandable if players have little faith in referees and feel justified in appealing for fouls/cards/corners/throw ins et even if they know the decision should go against what they are claiming for. I'd rather have players making a tit of themselves waving imaginary cards than have a sterile game - hence my vote

I think all the Dutch clubs are which is why we've got scouts around there And no bad thing either

I actually think Liverpool would be mad to spend £9m plus on Enrique right now unless their owner is going to go against everything he has said previously and saction a massive net spending spree. Putting Enrique into Liverpool's team isn't going to make a massive difference then if they signed Taiwo on a free. I'd even suggest that the money would be better spent on going to wards replacing Gerrard or Carragher (which will need doing if not next season then the one after that at the latest).

Enrique is better. But is Enrique better than Taiwo and £15m spent on a new right winger/central midfielder/striker? I know its dependent on spending the money wisely, but IF it is then its the way forward for the club in the next couple of years. That's the harsh reality, a summer like 96 won't happen again unless we get bought out by a crazy Dubai dude. Of course I'd prefer Enrique to stay and £15m be made available.

If only we had an ex Beligian International with great links to the Toon who could sell the club and area to him.....

If someone pays you £35m that money has to go into the bank, not like Ashley will pop the cheque in his desk drawer until 1st June. Obviously as a result it reduces any debts held at that time. Doesnt mean that money cant be spent later though. And also assuming the £17m is as of the date of these accounts, the Carroll sale hadn't happened yet

Operation 'Keep Spurs out of the Champions League' not working too well at the mo.

If Barton is out I'd stick Ranger out right. It's a gamble, but he did alright there against Chelsea and the alternative would be Saylor and Simpson down the right which is a little defensive for me. We could always go 3 at the back again mind, not sure where that would leave Jonas though
