Alvez will still be a donkey. Don't worry. Thing is though I had written off Bolton and Fulham last year and they both went on stupidly good winning streaks around this point of the season. I cant see West Brom coming back but Boro still have a chance. It's our turn to go on a "stupidly good winning streak" hopefully.

Hulk actually does look like... well.. Hulk. Would love it for us to sign him

Imagine having someone who can actually run in midfield, the mind boggles. we have the makings of a decent team, with 2 new cms a striker a winger and a centrehalf we'd be able to challenge for the top half witha good manager in charge we'd need to spend about 25m though. I think with decent coaching colo will come good but that remains to be seen Harper Beye Bassong New Jose New Barton New Jonas Oba New It highly annoys me that Keegan managed to pull the plug on Wise's Skjelbred travel, but not on Nacho's. Imagine if it'd been the other way around, f*** me we'd have someone never stopping to run, going forward, able to string passes together and not have a phobia from shooting from long range. At the very least, we'd have a lad who'd actually be playing as opposed to curled up on the physio room. Speaking of, wasn't Nacho supposed to be back like... A month ago?

Newcastle United: where players come to break bones and strain muscles that they didn't even know they had

Rather Butt in the team than Nolan based on recent performances. Butt usually puts in a good shift when he's had a two-week break. Then after that it's back to his lovable knackered self. He WILL cost us points on Saturday. I guarantee it.

God will never allow us to take Nicky Butt out of the first team. Ever.

Deserves manager of the year award for keeping Stoke up as far as I'm concerned I mean, Jesus, look at that team sheet.

There's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time. So amazing last season, hope he doesn't go the way of Damien Duff... Actually, considering how much I like City now, I hope he does.

I have to admit, I sort of enjoy watching Stoke play at times. Their rough, talentless style kind of reminds me of myself.

Which might happen tbf Inevitably. It's been a nearly unbroken tradition since the days of Roeder. Dany Webber, Dave Kitson, Marlon King, Cameron Jerome, Kenny Miller, Ishmael Miller, Ricardo Fuller, David Cousin... When's the last time a promoted side's Championship-level star striker didn't score against us.

It does kind of sting that a Stoke fan can come and talk the piss out of us now though "Muhahaha prepare to be pwned by RICARDO FULLER AND JAMES BEATTIE!"

Through some ghastly combination of factors, I've ended up with both NE5 and cp40 having personal vendettas against me Funny.

s*** man, we're down for f***ing sure. Lawrence and Etherington? Enrique and Beye will be on the floor crying with fear within 10 minutes! Those midfielder's are so bad, they wouldn't even make Newcastle's first team.

I know, but quite a few foreign/none Geordie based fans talk a lot of crap where this club's history and especially where figures like KK are concerned. Oh and I'm aware I come out with a lot of crap doesn't excuse comments that basically say KK isn't an NUFC legend when he most certainly is and always will be. It irks me that no-bodies who do something daft in a match (ketsbaia) or score a hat-trick in a big game (Tino) get classed as legends. No people, they are not, not even heroes, its the likes of KK, Sir Bobby, Moncur, Shearer, Harvey, Wor Jackie, Hughie Gallacher, Super Mac et al that are heroes and legends. I'm allowed to think that Keegan's a cowardly prick for what he did in September while still acknowledging his legendary achievements in the past. no. Given your consistent contribution of insightful comments on this forum, I'd love to hear you elaborate ok then, band wagon jumper on-erers, shouldnt call a club legend a coward,.imo. I see, what is the minimum age that you are allowed to have an opinion on this forum? Should I come back when I'm old and balding too?

problem is, if we lose at Stoke the Shearer bubble might burst right then and there. Then it's bye bye honeymoon period.

Them and Fulham were the only teams playing on Sunday that we still have to play, and Manchester is closer than London.

We've still got Villa to play, just scouting them out I suppose?

Yeah, f*** me what do I know. Although you do have SBR calling Keegan yesterday's man as well, but he's just a mouthpiece for Ashley as well. Poor old King Kev, misunderstood by everyone. You wouldn't be supporting the club if it wasn't not for KK man. Sir Bobby would never have done what KK did, come to an ailing second division club on the brink of relegation and going bust and that's not me having a dig at the man, just putting things into perspective. In fact without KK there would have been no Sir Bobby. They are both legends, as is Harvey the last man who won us a trophy who you conveniently failed to mention. I can understand people still being pissed off about KK leaving but f*** me, its getting sillier and sillier to the point where its as if what he's achieved for this club (basically he saved us and paved the way for Sir Bobby and those high finishes and CL nights) didn't happen. You being a foreigner cannot possibly comprehend what KK means to the people of this club even outside of football matters so stick your s**** where it belongs. got nowt to do with being a foreigner. everything to do with being thick though. dont tarnish our overseas fans cos one of them made a laughably ignorant statement, plenty of geordies come out with rubbish too. For future reference, can we get some sort of scale on the forum. I'd like to know whose opinions are 100% Geordie approved, and whether non-Geordie ex-pat opinions are worth the same or less than non-Geordie UK based opinions, versus non-Geordie, Johnny Foreigner opinions. And hows does the E.U. factor in, if at all? Thanks. Obviously, votes of non-Geordie members should only be counted at 3/5 of Geordie votes on any polls.

The only cringeworthy thing I see here is the narrow minded xenophobia of certain members. Don't like non-Geordies supporting the club? Well then you'd best f*** off from an internet forum where nearly 50% of the members are foreign. After 8 months I'm perfectly capable of ignoring the usual rubbish about Keegan being to blame etc, cheers and I never implied anything of the sort btw Good, after 8 months I've adjusted myself somewhat to ignoring the usual rubbish about the man with 50% responsibility for this debacle being made into some sort of sainted matyr.

West Brom? Yeah, but I've been counting them as a Championship team since december

N'Zogbia's an overrated, inconsistent, ungrateful piece of shit who only got as much credit as he did because he's fast and foreign. 6m straight up would have been good enough for the tosser. Ryan Taylor is just a bonus. I'm sorry but I just feel physically ill whenever the Insomnia-wanking starts up again. I don't miss him one bit. If anything, Milner was the far greater loss.
