Hello! In the somewhat likely event that Newcastle is relegated, I started thinking about what the squad would/should look like, and also what N-O's hypothetical thoughts were. For this to work, please base your starting XI and bench on the following assumptions: - Alan Pardew has been sacked in March in a desparate attempt at saving our PL status. - Mike Ashley is not interested in spending ANY money after paying out the remainder of Pardews contract. - These players have been sold/not renewed contracts/returned to owner club: Krul, Coloccini, Mwiba, Santon, Janmaat, Sissoko, Anita, De Jong, Cabella, Tiote, Ben Arfa, Cisse, Riviere and Ferreyra I don't think I would actually mind another season in the championship, provided that it is under a better, forward thinking manager. We have some exciting prospects that could greatly benefit from a season in the Championship, ready to have a good go at the PL should they manage to get promoted on the first attempt. I have no idea who the manager should be, but my team would look something like: ----------------------------Darlow------------------------------- Raylor----------Williamson-----Lascelles----------Haidara ---------------------Abeid---------Colback-------------------- Ameobi-------------------Vuckic----------------------Aarons ----------------------------Perez-------------------------------- Subs: Alnwick Good Dummett Bigirimana Obertan Gouffran Armstrong Not too sure about my own inclusion of Vuckic. I think I might prefer Bigi in midfield instead of him, but it's not much creativity in there then.

I love how casual the cat looks towards everyone

But they didn't rule it out - hence teasing us with the possibility.

Teasing us with a potential sale in 2 years time.

Well, he is known for using the same strategy for "buying" players. It wouldn't surprise me.

Forest reported that we are paying all their wages IRC.

Fantastic. We are crying out for a new CB, yet we now have two promising CB's out on loan, paying 80% and 100% of their wages. How?

nay

Hit me with them. I dont think there is, Ashley's appointments have been Kinnear and Pardew so far and were both out of work hacks. I would suspect the next person who walks through the door after Pardew will be someone similar. The pool of managers we will recruit/hire from will be farily small. + Keegan, + Hughton Agree with your point though.

So the form he had for the 10 first games in that season, which led to him losing his spot in the team, is good enough to win over the crowd now?

Chygrinski?

Our Hayden Mullins

In: Billy Jones - West Bromwich Albion - Free Jordi Gomez - Wigan Athletic - Free Costel Pantilimon - Manchester City - Free Patrick van Aanholt - Chelsea - Undisclosed

Hes not fit enough, so don't matter.

Is Lascelles injured? He hasn't featured in any of their 7 pre-season games. Darlow on the other hand has started each match. If Lascelles is 4th choice I wonder if loaning him back has any purpose. If he doesn't get any match time in the championship we should have tried to loan him to someone who will actually use him. Seems a bit weid. Forest fans were hoping for ~£10m, and are gutted he (or both?) is only going for ~£3-4m yet he wouldn't be starting if all center halves were fit.

Massively. All fucking summer I've been trying to forget about this cunt and you pop in here when it's bumped hoping he's lost the power of speech, but nar it's good ol' bimps going "ah wish ee wuz dead, that'd be good, hurrr". It's annoying and it's actually been going on for ages. The fact that you seem to constantly fall out with people on here probably says more about you then them or the points you try to make. It also seems like you become obsessed with the people you have an issue with and constantly have a go at them for doing nothing else but stating their opinion or thoughts. Just give it a rest man.

He went back to Kinnear as well. He will never learn from his mistakes. Everything IS bad forever.

£12m is a lot for a soon to be 29 year old fullback. Don't know why I wrote this though. It is totally irrelevant.

I hope Sammy gets number 23 next season to carry on the Ameobi legacy.....if we don't sign Shola up for a new season.

Jinxed it

Costa Rica will crumble under the pressure of the shootout. Greece moves on. Nailed on.

Hope there is some contractual actions Liverpool can take against Suarez, and not pay him any wages during his ban - and that they actually exercise it.

Was just about to come on here to ramble about Greece going out of a major cup always highlights the point where the cup gets better.....

fuck
