Unbelievable

I just stated the type of player that i'd like to see us go for, i don't have to state names because that isn't my job. All i want is a forward who can play wide so we can stick to 4-2-3-1/4-3-3. Carroll can only play 1 position. I have never been against Carroll's ability as a player and what he can bring i'm against his attitude, his tactical versatility and his price. But because my opinion is different, i'm a football manager freak and a foreigner who has no right to give his opinion on the team he has supported since he was 4 years old. Tbf, if you've only been supporting us for 10 years, you should be able to remember how good Carroll was. Try 18 years smart arse Plus of course i remember how good Carroll was, but i'm convinced that Carroll cant be replicated on a regular basis. Carroll was the go to guy in that team and everything was built for him, now he would just be another player and i'm not sure he could perform to the same level in such a scenario. Anyway i have said many times why i dont want Carroll and its not for ability reasons. It's for tactical, attitude and financial reasons. Another much used argument that is a red herring. Carroll wasn't even our first striker at the start of that Championship season, so how exactly "the team was built around him" I'll never know.

I'm sorry, but that's not our job. You can't discount the opinion of anyone that disagrees with you because we are incapable of coming up with a viable alternative. I am just confident we could do better. The club seemingly is not, seeing as they are bidding for the player. What do you make of that?

You're all in denial. The lad wants to come home. One day, after he has eclipsed Shearer's Premiership goal record in our black and white shirt he will confess in his memoirs that it was all one big cunning Mike Ashley plan. The 35 million move, the disappointing performances in the red shirt of Lolerpool, getting Dogleash sacked in the process, refusing to go anywhere else but us, leaving Lolerpool no choice but to sell him back for 3.5 mill to get his wages of the books, and the subsequent re-emergence of the prodigal son. 443 goals in 12 seasons at Newcastle and a complete Premiership and Champions League winning team bought from the proceeds of his transfer, who'd have thought it possible..?

Quicker than anticipated..

Indeed. Carroll will turn Wham down, this was his cue.

Remember lads, no wide ranging conclusions.

Taking the papiss..

Dear me, almost closed down my erm... TV.

I take it you're not familiar with SRS' brilliant work..?

Decent first half from the second string.

New motherboard

Even if he is, that's exactly what it'll be, so I'm just getting my criticism in early.

Knew it. The state of journalism man..

Campbell MOTT. Well done Adam..

Damn...

Better yet, send him packing and get the Brazilian youngster in to replace him.

Game over

Fuck

Cheers leads, helpful as ever..

What team do we have out?

What time does it start? Nevermind, just found it on nufc.com: Kickoff is at 8.20pm and BBC2 Northern Ireland (Sky Channel 972) will provide live coverage.

This on tonight then?

What's so funny?
