I know Man City have a really good set up but you don't know what the current batch of players will be like, put it this way if we play as bad as last week when we were stuffed by Watford then City will batter us, if we play like we did 2nd half against Villa then we may well win. Chris have you any idea if the likes of Ferguson, Vukcic, Soderberg, Morris, Dummett have gone off to play internationals? losing the likes of them could make gettin a result a bit tricky!!

they were talking about a SIPP - a Self Invested Pension Plan. i don't know what one is mind!

think there must be better options than that lump available, may well do a job but think its a "fox in the box" speedy striker that we need, someone who can play with our 3 existing strikers SHola, Carroll and Nile who are all target men really.

Anybody on here listen to this on Tuesday night, on from 6pm till 8pm new online radio phone in show for Newcastle fans hosted by Steve Wraith, think its only on once a week, this week was only the 3rd one but makes a difference from the likes of the Legends where you have to listen to knackas from the Boro and mackems wittering on. Had the likes of Joe Allon, Neil Mitchell from the NUST on it. if anyone wants a listen the show has been repeated and available here http://broadcast.loober.com/recorded/10126_Tue-01-Sep-09_10-09-26.mp3 I only found it cos i spotted it on .com and then was speaking to trevor from the Longsands who told me to listen cos he was on it! Topics discussed are the lack of transfers, takeovers, supporters trust, the midfield with the likes of Barton, Smith, Geremi, Nolan etc, Ranger.

Absolutely gutted we hired a bus for this last week, had planned a jolly up in Blackpool on the Saturday night, one of the lads was booking the hotel this week, hope he hasn't booked it yet!

if someone from the club had made contact with him and offered him a contract he would still be here, after we played Villa he was out of contract and unemployed, he had to look after himself and get a new club, you can't say spilt milk, he'd have been suspended for the first couple of games for us this season anyway as he was sent off at Villa.

What you on about? it's only 7 of our first 15 games........hardly every week! :-D

Bloody hell, Gibson is a tremendous player but we already have the best midfield in the league!! We need forwards and defenders!!!

still here and still sh!te.....nowhere near good enough so not even worth thinking about stepping up to first team football.

Vaughan is a good player but more injury prone than Owen & Viduka combined!!

i know what you mean, i don't want to lose jose but if i would prefer Enrique out and bale in if it meant Steven taylor stayed.

Could do but Hughton won't, he'll play Ranger with someone like Nolan behind him. Think Vukcic will be on the bench. Another option if Jonas, carroll and Shola are all missing is go 433, with a front 3 of Lua lua ranger vuckic another reserve lineup and have Guthrie, Smith and nolan as the midfield 3. Again would work but Hughton won't do it!

I'd start him, don't think theres much diffrence between starting him and starting Nile and he could be better, however i thought he was an attacking midfielder rather than a Striker? If we need a centre forward then we'll play Nile as he is a striker, Vuckic is a typical number 10, a Beardsley, Bergkamp type player who will link up the midfield and forward line. Could easily play the both of them, Nile up top and Vuckic in behind, which is how they lined up last season in the reserve team.

Speaking of Richard Money, and pretty summing up the silence that comes from the club, our Academy director apparently suffered a heart attack during the summer. He was at the game with Villa last Saturday but was sitting on a golf buggy with his feet up rather than in the dugout with Wharton and the others.

Shola's foot isn't broken but according to .cock its a stress fracture!!! can't see him playing on Monday now

i have top respect for Caulkin but that story is just what Bird wrote in the mirror and George Caulkin & Bird are good mates, hopefully just been talking tonight and have put 2+2 together and got 5.

i thought Carroll would be back but think i read something somewhere today that Hughton had ruled him out.

Christ just had a horrible thought that if Shola is crocked we could see Smith back playing up front and Butt playing in midfield............

Just get shot and bring in a striker from the likes of Whitley Bay, Gateshead, Blyth, they'll be better and do a better job than Xisco anyway.

Villa getting beat has made my night!! They were a nothing club to me until the last game of last season, the way there fans reacted to us makes me want to see them get twatted every week!

i don't really care about brad inmans foot right now. it was his left not right!! lol....just to clarify Inman doesn't think Shola has broke his foot!!

brad inman doesn't think he's broke his foot.

Aye but 1730 kick offs at home are mint, time for a few extra pre match drinks and when the match finishes you're straight on the lash for a night out!!!

Can see them finishing closer to 10th than 18th again. Cracking couple of signings. Huth fits perfectly into the Stoke team of giants, not sure how a "footballer" like Tuncay will fit into the physical hoof it and play percentages football that Stoke play..
