NOLAN

Radio Newcastle, like every game

He was brilliant for Southend, dunno about Palace

Why though? Craig said there was no offer, was he just being told he's not leaving?

what gives them this confidence? They just won 3-1 at Ipswich, it's only natural to feel quite happy after beating Roy Keane

Yes, but all through pre-season we played Smith in CM and Nolan as an "attacking midfielder." Because we're away from home, Hughton will jump at the chance to use this system. Smith hasn't been seen as a forward of any kind for a long long time.

Swap Smith for Nolan and you'll be right

Where does it say Taylor is not playing? It doesn't, but it might not be a bad guess

He makes them all look like world beaters, that's why.

Lescott's burned his bridges like, I'll be amazed if he's an Everton player on September 2nd.

I don't like the constant references to "Skipper" Nicky Butt Him and Smith in centre midfield makes me want to vomit, if Palace have anyone who can take freekicks they'll have about 5 chances from 25 yards the way these 2 go on. Carroll 50/50 basically means no, no mention of Steve Taylor though.

Let's say this is true, hypothetically. I think this is because of the Taylor bid - selling more players makes the club difficult to sell, but Ashley needs to get the debt down and can't refuse offers for players, really. Therefore if Moat can get get close to buying the club today, they don't need to sell Taylor. If Moat is still miles away, Ashley will sell him as he will continue to treat NUFC as his business.

Went off with a "slight groin strain" on Wednesday

oh dear. Why oh dear, it's fact. Reads to me as if you're saying "we'll get into the Champions League again before they ever do - fact" That's just your interpretation to try and back your nothing of an argument. Well that's what I was picking fault with in the first place, if you meant the "fact" was that Everton have never been in the Champions League then so be it - that itself is debatable by the fact they finished 4th. You still think we've got more chance of getting into the Champions League than Everton in the coming years

oh dear. Why oh dear, it's fact. Reads to me as if you're saying "we'll get into the Champions League again before they ever do - fact"

oh dear. Why oh dear, it's fact. Some people need to look up the meaning of fact. Your opinion is not (never in your case) fact. Ok when has everton ever been in the champions league? Never Fact I stated we would be back in the champions league before they ever would be no matter how long it takes us to sort ourselves out. And I stated that your opinion is not a fact. Which it isn't. Who's going to win the Premiership this year? Whatever the answer is it's an opinion because it hasn't happened yet. Are you really this stupid?

oh dear. Why oh dear, it's fact. Some people need to look up the meaning of fact. Your opinion is not (never in your case) fact.

Ronaldo in disliking something shocker

He's also a c***, and is thus probably on Ashley's speed dial

Odds on Martin Taylor coming in? ZOMG HE'S A GEORDIE!!!

They didn't hear "Shearer! Shearer!" or "You greedy fat bastard, get out of our club"

As if they'd EVER turn down an approach I know, cunts

Incidentally, the Sky line is "A fee has yet to be agreed but the two clubs are talking." Please Derek, or Mike, just tell them to fuck off.

Sky man said Everton representatives were there last night, so probably.
