Taylor Swift

When's the pdf version of the account going to be released?

Could be some from West Ham pending on Promotion. Some from Swansea for Routledge. Think we're still owed some Bassong money too. Pretty sure there was something about all the Carroll money being upfront as part of his deal. Conditional clauses like promotion won't be included in the accounts. It's probably just a few clubs which are paying us in installments. Might be a couple of million for Nolan, a couple more for Enrique etc. Eh, they specifically say they don't do this. Yet we're now owed 5m so they obviously do it

Tbf, they play good football today but they just can't score for shit.

Bielsa is great. He's a classic manager. Him with us would be entertaining as hell.

So he's not as fast as he was, yet. Soon. [someone post the picture]

Koscielny is boss.

He owns the club and the loans so really it's just cosmetics. Loans are niftier for legal and tax reasons but for practical purposes, loans from a 100% owner is additional equity put into the business. Any interest on the loan should be considered in the same light as shareholder dividends. Well, not exactly since there's only one shareholder. You're right that all of this is cosmetics. That's the key point.

Something about playing 90 minutes for Chile. I'm guessing he's pissed off that Alexis played 90 minutes for Chile in a friendly and now has aggravated an injury. edit:

Andy's come and gone and the video is still there...

But yeah, re: Ben Arfa, I've said everything that I have to say about him. He's the most technically gifted player this club has seen for 20 years. If we don't make it work with him then the people in charge will have to bear responsibility. Players like him don't grow on trees. There are only three or four players in the world who can do what he does and unbelievably the guy loves it here. Please make it work. If we do, we'll have the best time ever watching a player do things that other brilliant players can only dream of doing.

It's the perfect excuse to ban Ethi.

It'll cover the year of 2011, which includes the Carroll transfer, the Ben Arfa transfer, the Cabaye transfer but it won't include the Cisse transfer. It covers our first season back in the Premiership and the start of this season, so it should see us return to 100m+ in revenue for the first time in a few years. The fact that our attendances ticked up this year will show in the accounts, as will the good number of season tickets that were sold in the promotion period in Nov/December.

They haven't been playing well. They were poor against Liverpool and Sunderland. The Spurs match was a one-off given that it was win or bust for them. I think we can sneak something here. They're not as strong in midfield as they have always been. 2-1 to us if Ben Arfa starts. Believe.

If we have made a profit before player trading then it's very good news. I expect our overall profit to be £20m+ when you factor in player trading. It looks like we're being run well. The wage bill must not be very high, the gate receipts must be higher than the past couple of years. If we're making a profit before player trading then we should be able to spend a bit in the summer given that there is still a bit of the Carroll money available.

The one good chance when Ben Arfa fed him on the right, he delivered a pathetic cross that was cut out by the first man.

Pardew's fault that we didn't win.

Such a stupid foul by Jonas.

This is as hoof ball as you can get.

Woeful by Taylor.

Our right hand side is a dead zone.

Sure, but it seems like you've taken out your frustration on NJ Mag, which I think is unfair. Maybe he thinks the Huddersfield fans have overreacted and where the manager is from isn't important at all? I don't see how you can assume that he think they're twats just because they sacked an ex-NUFC player.

Well, they would give an opinion based on our league position, something that would undoubtedly give them the best idea on our quality. This forum veers so quickly from one extreme to another week by week. It's not a bad thing. It's a pretty natural thing because we're in so deep here, but at the same time many people can lose sight of the bigger picture (ie. our league position). The Huddersfield fans could so easily come to regret their decision, in the way that so many fans do after a change caused by a string of bad results. Things change quickly in football. There's a reason why clubs who act to satisfy public pressure are rarely successful.

That's because we were relegated from the Premiership, so the expectation was instant promotion. Clark took over a team that was in League One. Anyway, I don't know enough about them so I'm not going to say more, I just wanted to say that Sewelly could have made his point in a much nicer and less abrasive way.

You don't need to be a dick about it, man. You yourself make plenty of comments about teams in loads of different countries and I'm pretty sure you don't catch all those teams play every week. Sometimes people outside the club have a better opinion on things because they can be more objective. For example, anyone outside our club now would say that we're having a fantastic season and that Pardew's doing a magnificent job. But you look at some of the posts in here and it's like we're hanging around in 10th, playing some pathetic football and looking like Stoke. We're all fans so we're all emotional about it, which is why not everything that's said here should be taken seriously. But when someone on the outside speaks then they may be able to see the situation clearer. I don't have enough information about Clark and Huddersfield but 43 games unbeaten is a fantastic achievement, no matter what spin anyone may put on it. They could easily regress without Clark and everyone will then lament the fact that he was fired, in the same way now that the idiots who booed us at home to Wolves in SBR's last full season must regret doing so. Sometimes people watching every single week don't have much more of a clue than the average person. Sometimes people watching every week lose sight of the big picture precisely because they're watching every week. Just sayin'.
