Yorkie

Good news that he's back, but he won't play.

Spanish club based in Valencia. Or is that not what you were referring to? gay.gif

He's currently parading his thongs at Levante.

Leicester equalise... Villa miss pen.

Luton 3-0 down.

God West Ham are poor.

'Like Haway' ...? Mackem Vicky Pollard?

Agreed... 2-1 at half time to Villa though.

Reading that after reading the thread - i think too many people are jumping to conclusions. Beckham would never come to us, not even if we were in the Top 3. Never mind Bottom 3.

Can anyone post up the article cos SkySports isn't working for me... Ta. And yeah, i agree with Brummie, he's off to America.

This might just be the time i reckon. I'm gonna put a fiver down on him not getting properly injured (IE miss two games in a row+) again this season. Aye - i'm mad.

30,000+, without a doubt. I think for the Levadia game we got 28,000 (still a decent turn-out considering the circumstances), but we won't get any lower than that this season. The fans are just too good.

David Batty.

Cracking article.

Slightly overrated perhaps, as far as the international scene goes. He hasn't had a brilliant start to the season either. But he's world class, absolutely no doubt about it, and is only going to get better. Think what Man Utd will still have with him in six or seven years time?

There's absolutely no harm in Luque playing this game, and like Ian says, we can't get much worse as far as results go, so we may aswell play him.

I bet Rossi never saw this coming. From Man Utd Carling Cup regular... to Newcastle Carling Cup regular. :| Feel sorry for the lad really.

I've seen Luque start a couple of times upfront, and he's looked poor. Lethargic, incompetent and seemingly without a care in the world. I want to see him on the left-wing! Harper Carr --- Ramage --- Taylor --- Duff Solano --- Parker --- Emre --- Luque Martins --- Rossi Srnicek, Bernard, Moore, Milner, N'Zogbia I think we should go with the backline that has looked our most sturdiest all season long, in any game. I thought Roeder was monumentally stupid to change the backline, and dump Ramage back at left-back (where he is incredibly incompetent) - although it didn't really surprise me. I think Ramage and Taylor have the potential of a very good partnership, providing they play together. With the midfield, i'd like to start Nobby, even though i've been very un-impressed with him so far this season. I just feel that Nobby has the ability to play crap, and then whip in a fantastic cross for Martins to leap up to and bundle into the net. Milner's had a good run of games now, and i'm not really sure whether he's taken his chance or not. Upfront, Rossi's got to get his chance, and Martins needs to kee playing because he needs to score a couple of goals and cancel out this duck which is lengthening.

Didn't Sven win the Champions League? Or the UEFA Cup? Or summat. I dunno. Sven.

Will he hell.

Aston Villa 2-0 Newcastle Newcastle 1-2 Fulham Man Utd 2-0 Newcastle Newcastle 1-2 Bolton Middlesbrough 1-0 Newcastle 3 years ago... that's 12 points in the bag. Atleast.

Embarrassment.

I thought he was fairly error-prone. Don't we have enough of them?

Distin's absolutely shite mate... and the 'cheap' theory won't fixate on him either. He's their captain! Jagielka's a good player though.

I really like Lucas Neill. I think he's rock hard, and it would be great for us to get a wing-back who can actually defend aswell as attack. Much the same with Leighton Baines - great player with an eye for goal and can actually bring some organisation to our defense. I think i'd be pleased with Upson on the cheap. £2m or so and it's a good deal. He used to be a good defender when Birmingham were a half-decent side. He was always the best English defender out of the usual suspects. The Terrys, the Ferdinands, the Campbells, the Kings, the Woodgates. He was always marginally out of the pecking order. However, he's had one or two injuries, and i think he's injured at the moment - returning in January. We could do worse than Upson, and i really can't see us getting much better. Neill, Upson and Baines would improve our defense monumentally, even merely to increase numbers. Whether or not we can get them is another matter. If Liverpool want Neill, Neill will go to Liverpool. He wanted to go there in the summer but Blackburn held on to him - and since then, his performances have deteriorated somewhat. I can imagine there'll be one or two teams in for Baines. I think we'd have to be atleast 5 Premiership places above Wigan for him to sign for us, and like Gejon has said, we can give him the cash to come here. We could get Upson if we wanted him though, no doubt.
