fucks sake man

It's an interesting chocie of words compared to "We guarantee if you have purchased a season ticket it will be delivered before the first home game" isn't it. "i'm a fat, populist, spurs fan who has fuck all idea but a small number of cretins have fell for it." cretins have fallen for it actually, cretin

never understand why people say stuff like this. there was a point in it regardlesss of our result against bolton, one point exactly infact.

i like it, was just thinking we need a song for him

hahahaha, 'buy watch'. sort of takes away from the name of the site but a good effort anyway

i wouldnt be surprised if that was his wage after incentives are reached to be honest. i'm a fan of owen but i'd be disapointed if his pay packet wasnt related to how many games he plays, i want to see nufc get value for money.

He's a total arsehole. After Martins scored there was total silence. Martin Tyler kept saying "This wasn't in the script". Well fuck you and your script. I didn't realise we were supposed to just lie down and lose. I wish the option to listen to the match without having to hear the commentators was still available. yeah, as i said in the match thread, it took me a sec to realise we'd scored as there was no reaction from the commentators, the least they could do would be a 'sensational, newcastle take the lead at old trafford, and you'd have to say it's a deserved one'. haha, i noticed that even more on the replay, andy gray says nothing, and martin tyler says 'oh, its in' in one of the most gutted voices i've ever heard a commentator use

why is that curious? they're doing they're job ffs!! do you expect KK to sell the tickets and the burgers aswell? all clubs have scouts, we've got some pretty good ones at the minute by the looks of our three new signings yesterday. its extremely small minded to suggest that you could be 'stirring up trouble' by quoting kk. its been said countless times by people within the club that KK has final say on transfers, he's just got some people working with him to find good players, its a pretty sweet deal if you ask me, get a grip. Small minded? Get a grip? How am i being small-minded? The difference between what you say happens with a DF and what we seem to have here is that Keegan as the manager knows who the DF is going after, either by recommendation from the DF or instruction to the DF on who to bring in. It's completely different if the DF brings someone in and THEN informs Keegan who he's got. Which is what keegan said in that interview. Like you say, all clubs have scouts. I agree with having a big scouting team. They 'scout out' players and identify them to the manager PRIOR to any action being taken. No scout signs players without prior authorisation from the man who will have to manage that player. Yet Keegan suggests this isn't the case at the toon. In which case, i find this curious. N.B. i've responded to your post without making jibes at your personal character and using over-the-top suggestions which you have above. I'd like the same courtesy in return. Whether i get it or not says more about you than me. 'when dennis wise and tony jimenez told me they'd got this guy called spiderman i looked him up' so you take from that, that jonas was signed without kk's say so? over his head? despite ashley publicly stating that keegan has final say on transfers? despite keegan saying he's happy with the way they're all working together? is it not possible that by 'got' he meant 'scouted' rather than 'signed'? in recent days we've heard nothing but positivity and sense (imo) from the owner and manager, we then went to old trafford and put in a great performance, and whats more all the new lads looked great. why come out with this stuff man? do you work for the sun? and ultimately, even IF all the players are signed with out kk's say so, which is a ludicrous assumption imo, knowing the man as we do, he's happy, he's smiling, he's positive, the team are playing well, whats the problem? N.B. i didnt say anything about your personal character in general, i said it was small minded of you to assume you could be stirring up trouble. maybe you've gotten what you wanted, which is a reaction, but when i see our fans helping out the media in the attempts to mess with us, i cant help but react. Look, i'm not looking for a reaction. And of course i don't work for the sun. All employees of the American must support Manyoo or Liverpool (Villa don't count). I'm not saying all signings are made above keegan's head, just that it's 'curious'. WTF is wrong with saying that? I'm not saying it's good or bad, but merely curious. I'd like to know more about what's going on with recruitment, how it's run etc. Ashley also said in that interview that Dennis Wise' job was to bring in 6or7 youngsters per season. What keegan says about Jonas ostensibly contradicts this. Why not quote that at me? For any REAL fan of newcastle united, a debate about the actualities of our club is welcomed regardless of whether some c*** from the Sun or any other paper might pick up on it. Keegan cares not about the press, but the club and so do i. I love discussing my club. All aspects of what's going on at my club. Not everything but that which the press might use. They're resourceful enough to come up with their own rumours anyway (they often do). Again, please refrain from asking stupid questions of me which are obviously not going to be true. Can it be i'm just a die-hard newcastle fan that wants to debate the club i love? Let's leave it at that hmm Dr? thats one massive assumption you've made there on very little evidence, in the face of stronger, conflicting evidence. you're either ignoring the evidence, you dont recognise it for what it is, or you do want to stir up trouble. lets just leave it at that.

as someone who misses a few matches a season, i think this is a very good idea.

are you bi-polar?

Jonas is a fucking demon, so pleased with his debut, Colo looked nervous at first but you could see his quality as time went on. I have to give credit to Taylor for a very good performance as i've been critical of him in the past. Happy with Guthrie too, neat passing and mostly forwards, which is a nice change. Give me a left back as good as beye, someone to replace the ludicrous nicky butt, and a viduka thats fit and i'll be over the moon. Well done lads.

we already had that... Guthrie? nicky butt was playing today iirc

please please please someone to replace nicky butt

haha, jamie redknapp, 'away from home WE do come under more pressure'. nice impartial punditry there.

i think thats a bit of a simplistic way of looking at it. with any deadline, everyone is aware of when it happens and how long they've got to make their deals, thats why there are more deals on the last day of the window than on the first. saying that i think we'll get two, maybe three if we're lucky.

i'd be happy with that, probably with geremi instead of butt though, so we can at least try and keep the ball a bit

this seems as good a thread as any to say what i want to say. i am absolutely buzzing at the thought of our new season starting tomorrow, we've got a manager i trust totally, and what looks like a decent recruitment drive going on (by that i mean i'm happy with all our buys so far). i know you could realistically say this before any season, i probably did before the last one, but this could very well be the season that starts a new era for this club. there'll be ups and downs, but i expect it'll be a season of positivity, commitment and hope, and wont it be nice for that to be coming from the club as well as us this time? bring it on.

level 1 is £110, you then have to go away and do AT LEAST 16 hours of logged coaching before they'll even let you on the the level 2 course. they advise that you do about 60 hours though as its quite a jump from level 1 to 2. level 2 is around £300

bit of both would be nice i think, you dont wanna only have one way of playing imo Owen's good in the air and has a knack of getting on the end of crosses despite his size. Martins has a great leap too. I just don't know why anyone would turn their noses up at a footballer like Saviola just because he's not that tall. i agree with what you're saying, i think owen's fantastic in the air tbh (first goal against the mackems was an amazing finish), i didnt necessarily mean height, but a bit of muscle is helpful up top sometimes, martins has it but still gets knocked off the ball a bit. i'm not saying i dont want any player because they're not tall enough, just a bit of variety would be nice incase we need to scrap a game out a bit.

bit of both would be nice i think, you dont wanna only have one way of playing imo

thats a name i've heard loads but i cant recall ever seeing him play

Was it played every game before Local Hero?? not that i know of, i just noticed it being played before our last friendly

more importantly, are they gonna play 'born to run' just before it for every game too? that was fucking excellent
