Aye, probably why they're trying to sell him. Over the last few years... as in the past Well he hasn't made them tick in the future. And your point is? i was talking about the past, like i said.

Sorry to rain on the parade but... I think your definition of fantastic is different to mine. I'd say he was a good footballer. Way overated IMO. Especially in this thread. Underrated imo, Deco has been the player that has made Barcelona "tick" as it were over the last few years, obviously the players scoring the goals (Ronaldinho,Messi,Eto'o) take most of the credit. He's easily portugal's best AM at his peak, not that underrated is he? Probably a slow developer like carrick, maybe souness was right at that point of time. ?

10 times more chance of Deco coming here than Heinze.

Pottymouths back! Unbelievable Jeff. ? Not seen you post in a while

Pottymouths back! Unbelievable Jeff.

the old "they'd do the same so let's go there too" ...we've been round this debate already... Personally i'd be disgusted if we won a game thanks to a diving scumbag of our own. People who condone it have no right to complain when we fall victim to it. Signing someone like Deco would be a sure way to see that happen on a regular basis http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/5885/decko6tpde4.gif I'd love it, there's nothing better than winning from a last minute penalty after a dive

I can certainly say I don't want cheating scumbags in our team... and Deco is one of biggest serial divers in the game. He can find another club if he wants a move. Yup, one of the best players on the planet but not for us. Not if he dives. No way. Sam wouldn't allow that imo. Anyway who gives a f*** at the end of the day?! If he wins a dodgy pen to win us a tight game, I certainly won't be complaining. Gerraway man, Bolton have been serial divers over the years. Really? Can't say I've watched that much of them over the years. Oh well anway, it's not like our opponents wouldn't have players who would do the exact same in that situation. Diouf?

I can't believe some people think he'd come here.

Do people actually believes this is set to happen? i'm getting the feeling it will be dashed within hours.

We've got money to burn

surely this can't be happening?

Does anyone know the Sentana prices? they seem to be a showing a lot more of our games than sky.

In all honesty, we don't need another striker at the moment unless Owen or Martins leaves. Our priority should be a left back. Maldini.

It's obviously bullshit, they've used the quotes up as their main source and used 2 players coming to the end of their time at their clubs.

that's crap What other CAPTAIN of a Premiership club, a club which had just welcomed a new manager and brand new owners with money to burn would fly speedily out the door at the first chance. Sad but true. Personally I thought he was a cracking player at Charlton. Didn't quite cut it at Chelsea and was a bloody disgrace at NUFC. Nigel Reo Coker? Joey Barton (well, nearly). I got the impression he was reluctant to leave.

Correct.

It would be silly, of course from a Newcastle perspective it would benefit us but like people have said we could finish 30 to 40 points behind top and still win it,i wouldn't want to win it that way.

Jorge Andrade has gone to Juventus in a 10m deal for anyone who wanted him.

Really? Fact is we took more supporters to Marseille than ANY of the English teams that they've played inlcuding Newcastle! In fact they had to open another block of seats in the MARSEILLE section (next to the line of stewards) to accommodate the BWFC supporters once the allocated section was full! That's because Marseille fans actually wanted to come and see the match against us.

Thought he got a brace, can remember them playing in that black kit, i can also remember Spurs beating you that season aswell 1-0 i think with Rebrov scoring. They played in Red that day. They beat us again in black a couple of years later tho, Shaun Bartlett 1-0. Remember that Rebrov game too. Injury time f****** winner. We should have won it too, and I don't mean by default just cos Spurs fielded Andy f****** Booth, but we had a perfectly good goal disallowed for non existant foul. Robbed. Full back catalogue of City defeats that left me fuming available on request. There's quite a few from that season. My god we were w***. Definetly deserved to go down, however we definetly didn't need to conceed flukes to prove it. What about when you beat us 1-0 on the afternoon, battered us, Huckerby scored and Dyer missed an open goal. I was going to mention that Dyer miss, as well as Stuart Pearce missing a penalty when the goalie had already told him which way he was going to dive, in my first post. But niether were anywhere near as surreal as the Jensen thing. However Ali Dyer's effort was probably the worst miss I can remember, absolutely wide open goal, under absolutely no pressure....But it wasn't so much crazy as it was hilarious Only other recent game at Maine Road i can remember is when Shearer scored in a 1-0 win, Owen's hat-trick for Liverpool is pretty clear, everyone was writing him off then he produced that.

Was it the goal when the ball was on the corner of the box and he overhead kicked it into the opposite corner and the goalie just stood still? probably a different goal i saw. Nope. The striker just volleyed it as hard as he could as it dropped, out of sheer frustration and it happened to arrow into the top corner from about 30 yards. No skill - just sheer luck tbh. I think most long range goals are tbh, when people watch players like Lampard or whoever hit them from 25-30 yards and it flys in the top corner, it's more clever play than skill, it's almost impossible to hit the ball that accurate so they play the percentages as their body shape won't be perfect.

Tut tut.
