Ronaldo

Would have really liked to see it go to Lampard, good bloke and our best player behind Rooney.

Ferdinand was my original choice when Capello came in so i'm OK with this. Thank fuck it isn't Gerrard.

Colo's been playing with a hamstring injury apparently. Fitz hall. Seriously, he's the absolute fucking worst.

It's his room mates cousin. Yeah, you're all sad bastards.

If fkin Carroll plays, Hughton wants shooting.

Le Tiss was a lazy git who pulled daft stunts like playing half-pissed and kicking the ball out of play because he had a bet on the first throw-in. His phenomenal talent deserved a lot better than the wanker who owned it.

Kadar ahead of Van da man?

what? Probably the best player in the world atm! He's still not at the top level with Messi, Ronaldo etc.

He didn't turn down Man U. He talked about this on talksport a few months back, Ferguson had the choice of him or Andy Cole and went for Cole.

Aye, their players are as bad as ours, probably worse.

When you think of what Cole achieved at 22, i'd say he never truly made the most of his striking instincts.

Agbon has to go, but Defoe imo probably has to start. I thought it was pretty cut and dry that Heskey and Rooney would be our best bet but in all honestly it's becoming clear that Defore has the best movement of all of our strikers and is the most natural goalscorer.

Steve Howey.

You cannot compare Guthrie with Ranger. Guthrie is performing to championship or higher standard, right now.

Wasn't it ammonia?

I put a £5 on Athletico just after they scored the 2nd as Skybet seemingly forgot to change the odds from 1/4.

Still young but I can't ever see N'zgobia fulfilling his true talent. Terrible attitude, hasn't developed as you'd expect.

40K ish.

To suggest their problems are worse than ours is a tad daft. The debts look horrific though.

They could easily finish the weekend in 4th place.

Jenas played under poor managers during his 'make or break' phase. But the raw materials certainly seemed to be there when he was 19 or 20.

Have a night off man ffs. What the f*** are you on about? Saying he was making good runs you just cant stop being chief cheerleader, just let it go man. He was poor in the 1st half & lasted 10 mins of the 2nd not because of his good runs but because he had a bad game. I would love him to score loads of goals for Racing because that would mean he comes back full of confidence for us or we get a decent fee for him when we sell him. When I am hearing s*** like he has been that a sub that has been taken off not once but twice I am hoping the reason is injury & not sub standard form. He barely got the ball but made some good runs into the box and I thought that was worth posting given that this is after all a Newcastle forum and he's a Newcastle player.

Have a night off man ffs. What the fuck are you on about?

Andy Cole on the same score.

2-0, worst defending i've ever seen.
