we cant sell shola. i dont know why, but i'm certain we cant.

in theory i'd be happy with that. i dont rate him much but at the same time i dont want to lose a good squad player for the sake of cash that wont be put back into transfers.

handy for promoting from within if pardew gets the boot i suppose

i'm going to this game, my boycoutt lasted a month

I honestly don't know what some folk watch. er.. Would you say Harper is better at dealing with crosses? I know Krul dropped the ball a couple of times but his physique alone gives him an advantage over Harper in that respect.. peter crouch

should have said hello, he would have called you a cunt and then smacked you and then got arrested.

me too

it was fucking awesome.

it was like watching a slow motion replay when he went through on goal, he just never picked up any speed but seemed to glide past that player. fucking hilarious.

none of that makes him really, really rubbish

looking at that and previous quotes it sounds to me like his main motivation for signing him is to win favour with us. which is fine by me obviously.

Disagree, we give them a break (if needed) against Stevenage. No point keeping them 'fresh' for that when they can have 10 days to recuperate before the mackems. EDIT: Especially when they're, arguably, going to be our two most important players. not that i'd try and speak for mick, but i think the inference is not that they'll be knackered after the game, but they'll be shit during it. i sort of agree with him really but we dont have many options, just have to hope that tiote deals with their mifield and shola gets another easy finish. i realise that concerning nolan this sort of contradicts my above post, but even if he is a bit sluggish i just think its been proven we're a better team with him this season.

Maybe because he prefers a player with genuine skill and pace, over one who might score/get involved if he feels like it that day. we're not as good a team without nolan like.

mate, this is nufc. last time we were in the premier league we got relegated, and the owner's just sacked a competently performing manager and replaced him with one of his mates. there's precisely ten seconds to enjoy a victory at the end of the match then it's time to get on here and worry together.

He's actually really really rubbish. go on.... Real team player, definitely not in it for the money. That's my main gripe. Plus he's technically weak in many respects. motivated by money i'll grant you but he's a canny player like, or we could start shola and lovenkrands?

routledge looked ok when he came on...the problem is we have no-one decent through the middle to partner tiote. aye, but barton's better, there's no debating that imo. think nolan's under-rated tbh, keeps things ticking over, rarely loses posession and is always a goal threat, especially when carroll's playing.

He's actually really really rubbish. go on....

on the other side of the argument many where i was (a pub) were adamant it wasn't a booking (which it was). that was all it was though. to be fair the angle wasnt a kind one at first glance but once you saw it was clearly one-footed that was it, didnt stop andy gray going on about it though, if that was rooney it wouldnt even get a mention

also i hope pardew's learned his lesson in terms of barton on the right.

it was never a penalty but he still thought it was necessary to hold his stomach and wince as if it has just hit him there, muppet. not much to add to what everyone else has said, i'd still like to see williamson over taylor though and i'd have started ranger over loven but it seems that ranger's gotta go a long way to get a game under pardew. decent performance, vital win.

'Experience' ahh, the same 'experience' that pardew's got

what exactly can lovenkrand offer over ranger? apart from turning up to training on time?

If that is the case then I'd be reasonably pleased with that. more likely to be loven left jonas right shola by himself upfront with that personell imo

Krul Simpson Williamson Colo Jose Barton Tiote Nolan Jonas Ranger Shola Best is Shola's not fit.
