To be fair, you deserve ridicule. You've defended this inept moron ever since he proved that he was one, and now you continue to do so. Martin O'Neill got Aston Villa to where it was by spending a load of money. He walked when some of his players had to be sold. How the hell do you think someone like Ashley, with a tradition of selling players behind the manager's back without even putting the money back in the club, is going to attract O'Neill? How the hell is Ashley going to attract any manager if he continues not supporting them -- and even sacking the more successful among them, like you suggest? Only a no-name manager like Hughton, or someone who's been out of a job for years, like Kinnear, will work for that man. You're a f***ing idiot, man. :lol:

Delph. Fantastic talent but nowhere near ready.

Hughton says there's money to spend. Presumably he's either lying or there's a couple of million there.

His form whilst with us suggests otherwise Compared to who?

Basically what I said yesterday.

He's twice the player Nolan and Smith are.

Barton shouldn't be anywhere near our starting 11 as he's utter rubbish. game passed him by the other night. You're a joke.

I though the thread had been deleted because he'd signed for Werder.

Yeah, because buying a plasma telly can be likened to buying players we need to avoid sending the club into free-fall.

West Brom outspending us.

If that's genuinely all that's required, and we don't play ball then Ashley deserves relegation. It's just s*** that we'll go down with him, and he wouldn't learn from it.

Yes and no imo. We look a bit more settled in defence, we look to have a decent pair of wingers this time around, and Carroll may be able to get 10+ goals this year if we're lucky. However, Harper looks too easy to beat, we have a clear problem with the right back slot, our midfielders are all very slow, lacking in creativity, and none of them are good at protecting the back defense, and aside from Carroll, we're probably going to be hopeless in attack. Furthermore, if we get a couple of injuries to the likes of Jonas/Enrique/Carroll, we're probably f***ed. It's a complete crapshot anyway. The team that got relegated was significantly better than the s*** Roeder had to work with for the majority of 2006/2007. No chance.

Eh?

Bollocks. Find me these accounts of him wanting to go to Newcastle. As soon as a premier league club came in we didn't stand a chance, just as we didn't stand a chance with Ben Afra if some club came in who were better than us, or a club like Bremen who have money to bun after likely selling an even better player. Nonsense.

I think 'benarfaNUFC' might be a bit of a harsh reminder of what could have been if he sticks around like. I wouldn't worry, we'll have 'jasonkoumasnufc' before long.

We could keep him in the Jesmond Dene Hotel, he'll never escape.

We're likely to get relegated because we're complete and utter dogshite. We'd have been somewhat less so with genuinely creativity and pace through the middle.

None of it makes any sense whatsoever, Tom. Judging or no Judging at least I am the only one here who thinks the future is bright. That's because you're insane, mate. Nowt to be proud of.

None of it makes any sense whatsoever, Tom.

It would be better for everyone if you just stopped making posts. Yes.

It's clapable because they're both utterly clueless.

This whole saga once again highlights the need for a DOF with even a modicum of footballing knowledge. Somehow we'd have been able to do a deal with this lot, even if it meant offering one of our overvalued donkeys, like Jonas. Anyway, for the umpteenth consecutive time, we have 2 weeks left to save our season.

Yeah, which is why he managed an avalanche of assists in the Championship.

I LOVE YOUNG BOYS!

He's demonstrated that same poor judgement in just about every game i've seen him play. Not his fault he's inexperienced, of course. He's going to be a hell of a keeper, just not for a while.
