75 or 76, I was 7, went with my Granda to see Newcastle beat Arsenal 2-0 - After that it was a couple of years later and a 0-0 draw against the mighty Bristol City.

i 4 one would be utterly satisfied with losing owen permitting that we in return were able to get anelka I can certainly see this happening if Owen leaves.

Let's not forget that the reason people are more forgiving of Given is that he has saved our bacon numerous times in the past, mistakes from him are very rare - give the lad a break, more than most, he deserves it!

Terrible news - best of luck, Bob

Bloody Sky - England and Owen is all those freaks ask about

i agree, especially with the cloud over Owen's fitness.

Martins makes another. I'd play him wide right if BS doesn't want to play him up front.

Balance!!

Smith's a decent player but is wasted on the right. If he's not gonna play up front then I'd put him in CM instead of Butt.

at last a chance to see Viduka and Martins together.

Given has proved himself time and time again - he's warranted his selection as no. 1. Harper's very competent, but he's no Shay.

Tbf Dein doesnt even mention Newcastle, The paper couldnt get a name out of him so they just added us and made a bullshit comment after it. I cant see Spurs being sold either didnt Levy's company just buy alan sugar's shares for £25m? Soz guys - you're right - I should've read a little closer.

For what It's worth there's an article in the Sunday Times where Dein implies both Newcastle and Spuds will be sold soon. The fact that this appears to come from Dein who has supposedly had contact with Newcastle, is a little worrying. Though Ashley's recent behaviour seems to indicate commitment. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/arsenal/article2368578.ece

disappointed that Harper is in over Shay.

did we have away shirts in the old days? Remember a blue one from the late 70s too.

phew!! - but why leave it until the last minute

But why are we waiting for the Nobby deal to go through before concluding our deals?

Luque

not enough money on offer?

Sorry if this seems a stupid question, but what back room / sports science staff has Sam taken on? Has he got the blokes from Bolton he was after? I knew he was after them but I hadn't heard he'd got any of them yet.

can't see Smith joining as a second choice - could a forward be on his way out?

totally agree mate.

I try to be patient but i'm really getting p***** off with the money being spent at lesser clubs like spuds and citeh whilst we're dragging our heels.

Every Dyer touch is getting booed by some of the crowd.
