Ronaldo

if good means absolutely and utterly bollocks then yes

I never booed Owen (that I can remember) and certainly not during a pre-season in which solidarity is paramount

Cattermole the hardman in a threesome with a bloke, wait till the papers get a hold of that

I dont see how all this talk about second chances correlates with our fans booing our own players. At the start of the season it's just senseless, nowt good comes from this shite, only negativity. They've all let us down badly, with 3 or 4 exceptions. Barton at least has the footballing ability to redeem himself

singling out one player and booing him the first day of the season is pathetic

In this current state, we should get behind the entire team, booing our own players helps nobody, and they need all the help they can get

We all knew that Bellamy and Robert were gone the minute Souness was announced as manager. On the back of that great season the c*** dropped Robert for the trip to Bolton and replaced him with Darren Ambrose. Absolute c***

Your kidding right? Robert was past finished with us and nothing more than a whiner. His passing, control, crossing and shooting in his last season and a half with us made shola look like Pele. Now whilst I liked Emre, he just didnt justify his wages, making his annual 16 appearances in between injuries. He was a luxury we could never afford, he was never fit enough for us to see the best of him. Whilst Emre managed to amass a whopping 25 appearances this year, he has hardly set the world alight back in his homeland. Robert has managed to be even worse since leaving. What do you think they would have contributed to Newcastle had they stayed? I'm pretty confident little that's positive on the football pitch. last season and a half? So you're including the season in which he scored 12 goals for us then? Honestly man

Fucking hell, new season = new start for the club and and the players that want to play for this football club booing him is pathetic. It sickens me that some our fans are so fucking incredibly stupid

who mentioned nationality?

Makes you wonder if Man U only sold Ronaldo because they knew they could get Damien Duff on the cheap

hope we get Beckford signed in the next 2 weeks

the type of nonsese i'd expect from the biggest wankers in the footballing world.

Coloccini isn't coming out with this nonsense, depsite being a lot more proven in europe than Bassong

Our main rivals are West Brom, god this is fucking hilarious

can't this just be locked

Jenas should be there instead of Milner, and Bramble should easily be somewhere in that defence on current the team would pushing the top 6 imo

The thing is, Chelsea already had a pretty good spine of players before Abramovich entered the scene, Lampard and Terry being the key ones (along with Drogba) over the past 5 years. Man City are building from scratch, don't have the recognition and aren't based in London, it'll be a lot more difficult for them

Puyol is a big name, big star, big personality, whatever. He's also likely to get anihilated in this league. Go for Per Mertesacker for the love of cunt

Is he going back to cleaning boots?

City are in danger of becoming an absolute joke in the football world and one that players will get ridiculed for joining. Puyol now? Honestly, what a bunch of wankers

He could easily turn out to be Sir Bobby Robson mk2. We've got f*** all to base it on. Personally, i'd rather not be shitting cash - cos it's pretty much everything i go against when it comes to modern day football. I'd like to have enough money to survive and get there through skill, quality and graft - a nice balance, like the Bobby era. I know it's thoroughly idealistic, but i just hate how you have to be mega-rich nowadays to achieve any form of success. I'd quite happily take a moderately wealthy owner, with Shearer as boss - if those are the options. But the reasoning for that leans towards the first half of the deal, rather than the second half. I don't want to see us turn into an utterly deplorable parasite like Chelsea or City. Not too fussed on Shearer... love him to pieces obviously but if we can appoint someone who's proven to be a good manager ahead of him, i won't cry into my pillow. which is why chosing him over an awful lot of money is madness, surely you knew what I meant

Stupidly rich owner obviously, Shearer could easily turn out to be Greame Souness mk2

:lol: he's riding a bicycle and eating an apple, yet has this 'what the f*** are you looking at' expression

The Spider. he had some good moments. Especially when playing for leicester in Divison one during 96-95. Played 2 games for them, was at fault for 4 goals and spent the rest of his time there as their third choice keeper
