Wait...that was a serious question!?

No but I'd wager it'll be someone like Paul Ince - has he played for Macclesfield or is he solely the manager?

Am I right in assuming nothing can happen over the weekend because the stock exchange's closed, making this weekend officially the most boring ever?

We can only get 2 loans - I think Bernard is the back up plan to Babayaro for a left back, unfortunately.

.com says we're in for a striker on loan 'in the Rossi mould' which means one of the top 4's youth strikers - best not start guessing that too or we'll be here weeks.

Spectrum if you're still online, what full backs do you have that might possibly be loaned out - I'm going through the North West club as the other side of "coming across" to Newcastle

It's very probable nothing will be mentioned tomorrow and on Friday Roeder will say that it's fallen through, and we'll never know who it was, and Skirge will self combust.

That response had me laughing far more than it should have

Some would say keeping his cards close to his chest, others would say misplacing the cards and struggling to find them, or in many cases failing to get the cards out of the damn box.

I was a day late, he'll be here on Wednesday. Aye next Wednesday for the league match. Am I going to be whoosed here?

West Ham.. Oh god this isn't one of those cryptic things like the Penguin message you did that O'Neill would be here by Tuesday, is it?

Worryingly, I could see both of them happening. Although if Roeder didn't want Campbell because he hasn't played enough games in the last 2 years, Samuel has played even less. Paletta is young and was useless against Arsenal...

Who the fook are these 2 loans going to be then? Lassana Diarra will probably end up here if Chelsea get players fit soon or sign somebody, although I don't know why. We've had a bid rejected by Arsenal for when of their kids who Wenger says "isn't ready for first team football on a regular basis" (Denilson? Djourou? Diaby? Song?) Fowler? Alan Smith? Then there's Anton Ferdinand and Davies - who are surely non-starters if we don't have £5 million (unless of course we've set aside the money strictly for defenders)

http://www.nufc.com/2006-07html/reserve_apps_prem.html 4 in 6 as of 6th of December for Finnigan

I would even if I was me. For a 100th of that

Never seen them play myself but Finnigan's scored plenty for the reserves this season. I'm sure Mosley/Rocker/Pav will give you a detailed profile if they're around later.

You're wide of the mark. My sources tell me there's no need to panic.

Who Paul Dalglish?

Yes. And Mark Wilson is what exactly?

There's been 1 game played (Birmingham) as if you think about it, Larsson couldn't play for Man Utd on New Year's Day because the paperwork wasn't done in time and that was a pre-agreed deal. Don't panic

Vitor Baia wears number 99

Sky Sports News are having a heart attack about it and having phone interviews with every Englishman who has ever played in the MLS, such as Paul Dalglish and Mark Wilson. Seriously, why do Sky Sports have their phone numbers at hand?

Winning 3 - 1 at half time

Yes, that was the first thing that struck me - there's going to be a lot of championship and lower sides in round 5. Chester or Swansea Barnet/Colchester/Peterbrough/Plymouth Derby/Bristol Rovers Palace/Preston Blackpool/Norwich Wolves/Oldham/WBA That means at least 6 of the last 16 are outside the top flight, plus any shocks that take place (Us vs Brum (not counting any chickens :winking:), QPR/Luton vs. Blackburn, Bristol City/Coventry vs. Boro/Hull being the ones that leap out at me.)

That's more hopeful "could include the cup tie at Birmingham" suggests he's not that far away, but Roeder gives players ages to recover properly (usually) so it'll probably be February.
