Agree - I think he might be here sooner than we think. I can see Glenn getting the boot this week.

Oh, and his teeth are a fucking mess...................... AND he's still a twat.

He didn't exactly say that. I think he said he'd heard that 'Roeder and Newcastle might be parting company' but it's still a surprise he let that much go. Obviously fuelled by FFS to see the Toon Army reaction is my bet. Sorry to be pedantic.

We'll beat these tonight

Bolton gonna struggle next season. Nailed on.

The 3483 people that've read it perhaps?

Probably a stupid question...............I'm gonna ask it anyway though!! What happens to the £5.5m?

Agree - I've never understood the slating Rooney gets from some people on here. Madness. The 13 goals/10 assists are also coming off the back of a heavy world cup campaign and broken foot at the back end of last season which people seem to have forgot.

That is absolute shite he's talking. Since when does a players experience make it easier for them to get match fit. What you meant to say Glenn was "I didn't have the nuts to tell him I expected him to have a run in the reserves so we've just not bothered".

I reckon Dyer would be a hit at Spurs. He's gone stale here, in fact he went stale here ages ago. I don't think his heart has been at the Club since we sold Bellamy/Jenas and with the impending release of his mate Bramble he probably see's it as the perfect time to pack his bags. The key to whether or not he'd be a success at Spurs is twofold, his hunger to succeed and his fitness. I think he'd want to prove himself, so the hunger would be there but his fitness will always be a doubt. Make no mistake though, for us, to sell him one of next seasons UEFA spot chasing rivals, is a risk. That said the club need to decide if they take the calculated gamble (due to his silly wages, shite attitude and injury history) or do they keep him to hinder Spurs' ability to push on. I'd like to use the money to bring in Giles Barnes, personnally. I don't like Dyer, to be honest, but I do think he CAN be a matchwinner but not nearly often enough and not nearly consistently enough for us. If he fancies it down there though, he will strenghthen them no end and he fits better into their side than ours. If pushed I would sell him but, for all he's a cock, he can (and IMO probably will) improve them no end IF he stays fit. Sods law says we keep him and he gets injured in a daft pre-season friendly at Hartlepool or somewhere or we sell him and he plays 35 games a year for the next seasons.

That Guys in the article makes some excellent points and really sums up my mood/thoughts on the club at the minute. Hope that isn't the end of it and he gets a response.

Tend to agree. Thats a risk given his injury record. I'd want a guarantee of at least 2 seasons worth of 30+ games from him for that!

Shame - he could do so much better. I'm surprised he didn't go to Arsenal.

Bryan Robson

Neil Webb

Denis Law

Hate to say it, and this is not kneejerk after his performance on Sunday, but with the right partner he could be very good. I fully accept he's not proved himself to be either reliable or consistent in his time here but it would be gauling to see him go to a Portsmouth or Bolton and make a solid partnership with either Meite or Sol Campbell. He has all the attribrutes to be a good player its his concentration that lets him down. I'd like to see him get a two year contract with a commitment from the club that we'll sign a more experienced Centre Half to play alongside him/taylor. Puts tin hat on............................

Norman Whiteside

All the talk in the London papers is that Villa are in pole position to sign him.

Vinnie Jones Terry Gibson Mike Newell Stuart Ripley

Haven't read the entire thread. Have Nicos Papavisoliou or Malcolm Allen been mentioned?

Regardless, he was in charge of the playing personnel at the time. He mustn't have kicked up too much of a stink.

You mean like Given? Or Speed? Or Solano? Or Dabizas? Or Hamann? Or Tomasson? (ok, didn't make it here but he turned out to be alright didn't he?). Yes he bought a lot of duffers, but that was mainly just to get a reserve side back up and running again after Keegan got rid of it! (Gudjonsson, Pinas, Brady, Serrant, etc). Those 6 players I mentioned aren't a bad return for 2 years of transfer activity is it, and the first four were very important in us finishing 4th in 2001-2 season. Sorry, didn't see this. Those 4 (I would never call Dabizas a decent buy - he was gash) and you can't say Tomasson cos he was awful for us still don't make up for Dogleash's indiscriminate dismantling of a side that only needed a good defensive review. Selling Ginola, Sir Les etc will always make him an out and out cunt IMO. Sorry if you disagree.

Barnes from derby is a great call. On less than a quarter of Dyers wage means he would pay for himself in a few seasons.
