Sounds like Forster's started the 2nd half pretty well.
-
Seems to me like it's the player's agent that claims he's injured, no?
-
Name's far too long. Do you really think Ashley's going to shell out on that sort of lettering every game? But he's also commonly known as 'Kolo' apparently. Colo/Kolo left-sided partnership. Seems alright.
-
That came out wrong I hope...
-
As opposed to what? Just having 11 decent players? Don't worry, that'll be the case soon. I seriously doubt Barton is the perfect player for a bench role. He is after all in his own mind the best English midfielder. But he's better than no-one that's for sure.
-
That doesn't go against what I was saying anyway, it shows that most clubs have got players in, even if we're slightly higher than average. It's only 1 player making that difference. I know that. Just was interested in how many players each team has brought in that's all. Call it a courtesy table.
-
The majority of Premiership clubs have bought players in, I would say that we are somewhere in the middle of the clubs who have and haven't. Also, we'll only know if we've done well when players start producing on the pitch. Sunderland 10 Norwich 7 Fulham 5 Bolton 4 Liverpool 4 Newcastle 4 Chelsea 3 Man City 3 Man Utd 3 QPR 3 Swansea 3 West Brom 3 Wolves 3 Arsenal 2 Aston Villa 2 Blackburn 2 Stoke 2 Tottenham 1 Wigan 1 Everton 0 * Great formatting there btw. The point is though, how many of those teams have sold 42M+ worth of players in the last 2 windows? I wasn't trying to prove a point. Just posted an admittedly s*** table with the incoming transfers of each team. Everton have sold 35 millions worth and only bought Zog. Villa even. And they've bought Given as well.

To world famous pundit AS9 he was.
-
Especially since he rabbles on about "the truth" all the time. All he does is giving small snippets that can be interpreted in many ways. If you're so fucking concerned about "the truth" Joey man, spill it. At least than you would have respect from most supporters.
-
I'll go with blind optimism everytime. There are enough negative (or realistic) bastards on here anyway.
-
On the other hand, IF we managed to get Johnson on loan it would be quite a replacement, no?
-
As time goes on, Andy Carroll's decision to leave us looks more and more justified, tbh. He was pushed man. Everyone knows that.

Pre-season specialist Haris Vučkić joins FC Twente
clintdempsey replied to Skirge's topic in Football
Good interview with Haris up on NufcTV. He seems a really good lad. His enthusiasm for the game shines through and you can tell that he absolutely loves it right now. It's nice to see the spirit of the young lads IMO, balances up the doom & gloom of this pre-season a fair bit. Gets a wee bit boring just listening to rants from senior pros and various fans slagging each other and/or the club off. -

Howay man Jonny. You were reading what we were too surely. Stretched off. Mention of an ambulance. I think we have a right to be concerned no??? Especially given that last time he was stretchered off he missed the season.. Aye, but people reacting like it was the end of the world within 10 seconds of a vague status update from Steve Ryder? ho'way... Here man, its like 2:30am over here! Who's Steve Ryder anyway? Apparently this lovely chap. http://hub.tv-ark.org.uk/images/itveast/anglia_images/news/anglia_sport_july1979a.jpg -

Ashley has paid the journos to keep quiet about the full extent of the injury to keep the revenues from HBA shirts streaming in. #conspiracytheory -

Pardew said at the press conference that Marveaux would be involved at least. There wasn't any questions in regards to Ba though. -

I have to say that this summer (perhaps since Rob Scanlon started at NUFC) nufc.co.uk has been really good with updates and interviews. This is probably the first time in a long while that the NUFCtv subscription seems a good service as well. There's been a lot of nice little features and interviews during the last few weeks that really makes it worth the money IMO. -
Does that mean Smith is going on the US tour? Nah, that means Smith is going home.
-
Not to mention Pardew's quotes are from February. Maybe he's been given assurances that Tiote won't be sold if he'll sacrifice a bit of funds to balance the books?

Or since MA/DL won't spend money on players the've donated £15m to the foundation.
