  1. Okay guys, fess up. Which one of you opened a joke account to wind people up?
  2. Guys, when uncertain, just follow the cardinal rule: If he's good, we won't sign him. If we sign him, he'll be shit.
  3. Obviously the only way he can truly prove himself is to come to Newcastle. EDIT: damnit, Dresden got there first.
  4. If he's good enough he can and he will. It doesn't matter what his name is. I'd be happy to have Llambias playing up front if he could somehow score one in every two.
  5. I'm still more confident with Harper but it might be useful to give Krul a run just so we have more information with which to make our goalkeeping decision for next season.
  6. Kind of eerie how everyone (myself included) has convinced themselves that Enrique is gone this summer. It's going to be weird if he actually stays.
  7. We can't afford to lose anyone beyond Ranger on loan unless we're bringing in two strikers, and bringing in two strikers makes too much sense to actually happen.
  8. No. A. We're not competing for top six B. Is he that much worse than Bolton, Everton, or Aston Villa's second best central defenders?
  9. You're annoying. Jesus Wept.
  10. I get the impression sometimes this season that we're a starting to become something of a "only shows up for the big matches" kind of team.

    Nile Ranger

    I'm not his best friend or anything but judging by the noises coming out of the club I think it's clearly apparent that his attitude and effort in training are becoming a problem.
  12. I'm probably going completely overboard with this but I'm starting to sincerely believe that we have the best defence outside of the top six.

    Nile Ranger

    I think he needs to experience struggling in the Championship for a while and realizing that he isn't actually that good. That half-season at Preston may have done Carroll a lot more good developmentally than initially apparent..
  14. He's not a perfect winger and I hate his inconsistency but regardless, without him we're fucked.

    Alan Pardew

    Are you implying that Crumpy would ever post after a good result? Blasphemy.

    Twitter

    He wasn't on Twitter then, so he'd not have one. Shame. Would like to think that he had a sleepless night in his hotel room because of it.

    What a pathetic, pathetic human being. Wish I could search his twitter to see if he had any reaction to being heckled by NUFC fans at the airport during Man U's Korean tour two years ago.
  18. Mid table fullback for a mid table team. Works for me. Agree that he needs some real competition not named James Perch. I miss Habib Beye from before he turned judas and shit at the same time.
  19. Great game for Krul. Unfortunately we're going to have to sell one of him and Forster eventually. There's no avoiding that.
  20. Colo's near 30 though. Think that bodes well for the slim chance that he'll see out his career with us
  21. Obviously he hasn't actually done anything substantial but Ireland does get into really nice positions between the striker and the midfield.
  22. Just noticed pointing the finger at him like a schoolteacher scolding a ten-year old
