I know how you feel, but if that's what it came down to there would only be 13 or 14 players fit for every game.

Where on earth is that from?

I wouldn't worry, it'll all be the defence's fault.

Thank you for this. Their predictions are remarkably similar to ours. Very funny that none of them have Owen starting. How's it funny? He's absolutely shite and at very best their 4th choice striker.

The same Harewood who hit 20 goals in the Championship and 14 in the Premiership in single seasons? Don't kid yourself, Ranger has a long, long way to go before I can see him hitting 20 in League 1. He's nowhere near good enough for this level.

Not really, his twitter isn't selling copies.

Aye, glad it's back to normal again too with the midnight finish. Think it's still 6pm, nufc.com have it as 6pm and the countdown on Sky Sports News earlier had it closing at 6pm, will happily be told otherwise like as I prefer it at midnight. Transfer window closing at midnight was so much better imo. Damn right, i'll never forget the 11:25 ecstasy of signing Antoine Sibierski.

There's money available yet we're 3 days from the start of the season and we've spent virtually nowt, it's disgusting, tbh.

And here we thought we'd go into the season with one single geniunely exciting player in the squad, what a bunch of cunts we all are.

Despite his goals he looked really s*** last season. He'll do nothing in the Premier League, and it was you who was calling up Lovenkrands for not being Prem quality (I agree)... yet you'd be happy with Harewood back? Come on man, we'd be asking for relegation. Of course i wouldn't be happy. But i'd rather him than Best, Ranger, Xisco and Lovenkrands.

Dogshit who's done an awful lot more in the last few years than Leon Best. Potential to be effective is no good to us right now, we need genuine options.

Harewood is a better player, i'd not be opposed.

Me neither.

When did the scottish c*** tip us to go down?

Leeds at home.

For achilles to rupture, something has to occur. Usually you are impactd from behind or it gives out when you push off to jump or sprint. There is no guarantee that this occurs on a different pitch at a different club. The achilles of Senderos as a Newcastle player exists completely seperatly from the achilles of Senderos as an Arsenal player. Does it bollocks. If a body part is susceptible to injury, it's susceptible to injury wherever. Direct trauma might well be a factor, but chances are this was coming for a while. Wear and tear or persistent inflamation being likely contributors if so. I've ruptered mine twice by the way, so this isn't arguing for the sake of it, for once.

Yes, there is a correlation. It's the same human being with the same achilles.

Yes.

Or anyone ending Owen's career. They'd become my favourite player instantly.

3 defenders and no defensive midfielder wouldn't suit Barcelona, mate.

Terrible formation.

Surely Hughton's decided by now, man, it's 4 days till the season starts.

We should go all out for Bellamy, he'd come here in an eyeblink.

That's the thing. At least there is a hint of benefit in having Ryan Taylor on the pitch.
