No. These kind of signings are bad. We should wait until he's a full Italian international and is worth £10m before we do something as rash as that.

What are we hoping for here? Senegal to lose?

Dominated. Again. Some of our players do not know how to control the ball under pressure. Shame. I expected as much anyway. The support was brilliant for the most part though. Except for the group of old geezers beside me who abused everything and everyone. Chant of the night: 'fight fight fight fight fight' when Bendtner was sent on Honourable mention: from the four blokes next to me, 'his dad washes (?) elephants, his mom's a whore, Adebayor, Adebayor' a bit distasteful but I thought it was really witty

I don't think any of them should be judged yet. I'd like to think Keegan will give all of them a chance at improving by playing them in their correct positions, meaning no hasty decisions like shipping Smith out.

How 'bout we put you in there you c*** muscle and see how you do. Jenas is the goldenFISH dont forget boiee! wtf?!

I still haven't time to fully think about it (the appointment) and how it might actually pan out. Still in the phase where it's a bit surreal but the excitement is there.

The mind is just a reaction of chemicals, and addicts are addicted to the chemicals produced by gambling. The mind is not just a reaction of chemicals. If it is, how would you explain 'consciousness', or even something like simpler like the placebo effect?

It's a psychological addiction. The mind's more powerful than the body.

My concerns exactly... Why concerned? I'd rather him f*** up a Championship club instead of ours. In fact, I'd rather him f*** up any other club other than ours. I guess this is part of the concern about his inexperience comes from as well. There is a possibility that he will be a disaster of a manager. yet the qualities needed as a manager of a club like southampton and a club in NUFC's current situation are totally different. Did I say it wasn't? I was just reponding to a poster who was 'concerned' about Shearer taking over a Championship club.

This isn't KK's team. KK's team aren't so shit in attack

Don't see what's wrong with it personally. If we did that against Arsenal next weekend I'd be damn proud of the team. They came here for a point and they got it. Well done Bolton. Tough shit if every team comes to St. James' and wants to play for a point, it's our job to break them down.

Could have really used Emre today.

It's coming.

Charlie needs to push up more. Duff needs to move, so does Milner. We just need more pace in our team atm. I would consider sending Kazenga on for Ameobi and let him have a free role behind Owen. It's good to see that Given's no longer just hoofing it up but trying to get us to play football. Not the best of starts but it's alright, there's still 45 minutes to go.

I like.

I agree with NE5. Saw a quote on SSN today saying 'and if they ship goals, it won't worry Kevin one bit' or something similar - honestly, what a tit. I suppose Shearer expects Keegan to crack a smile everytime we lose a goal. Saying that, I do hope he gets involved because KK will infect him with the passion, drive and ambition - things I feel Shearer doesn't seem to show enough of (from hearing him commentate).

It would definitely be like us to lose, but not exactly Keegan's style though, is it? It's more like us with Roeder, Souness and BS; not with the King. Comfortable win.

Exciting times

Isn't the press conference closed? Same as St. James' as well according to .com so there's no use of anyone turning up.

Hedwiges Maduro? Is that Harry Potter's owl's full name then?

it's funny how everyone's done the 'regards' gimmick and yet he still doesn't know/change it

Ginola didn't really need much scouting like. You get my point though

He needs come confidence in his shooting abilities atm but I guess he's kinda lucky that a man known for his motivational skills has just been appointed, eh?

Normally I wouldn't have any qualms about trusting Keegan with spending money, he's always been one of the best there. But, since he hasn't actually kept up with the game in 3 years, I wonder whether these signings will really be 'his'. I also wonder whether he'll initially just go for the players that he knows (i.e. ex-players like SWP and them lot) instead of scouring Europe and trying to find the next Albert/Ginola.
