I think it's bridge or baines! Why do people keep mentioning Bridge, hes out for the start of the season, whats the point?

Most players will be getting injuries at this early stage of the season, muscles will be getting worked after long periods of rest, of course there'll be strains here and there. People need to stop whining. I'll join you whinging if hes out for a sustained period of time this season but not now ffs.

.....ah lets just swap him for Deco, alreet?

I hope we're not going to "Shock The World Of Football" in a really bad way

Did SSN say this?

Just seen it on BBC news, only mentions Newcastle United are involved, they have no more information than that.... Anyone else a little nervous? I hope to god this won't effect us much as I was getting use to the nice sections of the Newcastle Rollercoaster of ups and downs, hopefully this isn't a bid down

"Meanwhile, two players that United boss Allardyce is unlikely to sign are Fulham’s £3m-rated Franck Queudrue and Nice full-back Rod Fanni, with Big Sam keen to explore other options." http://icnewcastle.icnetwork.co.uk/newcastleunited/chroniclesport/tm_headline=sam-eyes-top-stopper-andrea%26method=full%26objectid=19462432%26siteid=50081-name_page.html

If it is true then I hope hes only a stand-in captain for pre-season as hes far too young and not the brightest of lads to be captaining the team over a whole season. I forsee this as only temporary. I'll wait until after the window shuts before making any more judgements though...

common sense prevails again

Hasn't Bridge just injured himself for the start of the season?

Generally fines mean FUCK ALL in todays game. If you banned them from competitions, deduct points or even sack players/staff THEN you'd see a change. But I don't think they'll ever understand this. They've been going backwards for years.

I've never written him off since he joined, I always hoped he'd get his chance and a good run of games but that never happened, especially under Glenn the muppet. I'd be over the fucking moon to see him play on the left for us, playing a solid run of games and involved in some goals, would make my heart melt day I still believe!

*goes back onto Youtube, types in Luque, starts dreaming of the possibilities once again*

Providing we buy a solid left back, I would start the season with Luque on the left wing and stick with him. n'zogbia will get his opportunity soon enough but its luques chance to show sam and us fans what he can do.

See the bit after the 'www.'? Never go on it again. Hahaa I thought as much, I heard that site was a load of bollocks

...also, dunno if this is news but this link says possibly Bernard Mendy? http://www.fansfc.com/newcastlefootballclub/news.asp?newsid=169886

god we're getting desperate for things to discuss now.... :sad8:

Luque is going to destroy the premiership next season just you wait! Hes going to set the league on fiyah, much like this http://img295.imageshack.us/img295/1797/avatar729428zi8.gif

They put free transfer + a few comments on the Deportivo forum and came to the conclusion he was s***. Are you his mother or something? Personally I'd tend to put a fair bit of value on what fans of his own team have to say about him. Not when they've not seen him play. But then thats what this threads for, discussing Aldo Duscher I guess. I'll just reserve my judgement for now as hes on a trial and nothing more. I'll trust in Sam decision.

All those people arguing over this transfer need to button it for a week. Hes arrived here on a trial, not a free. He could be gone in a weeks time so just wait it out and see what happens. I recall so many people on this board saying how he'd be the ideal player to sign not so long ago so he could be another free gem if we're lucky.

Christ you talk shit. Micheal Owen impressed by mountain bikes and foot doctors? my fucking arse How would you know? you love to argue with people saying how they know nothing about situations, players, etc but now you've just contradicted yourself.

Fantastic news Can't wait to see him this season! The amount of negative comments is pretty laughable if you ask me but I like to see the optomistic side of things rather than the invicta one and I see bright things ahead. All this talk of money grabbing ******d, etc is stupid, yes hes on a crazy wage but thats how the league works nowadays, a lot of players are on silly wages. We're now backed by a billionnaire so that should ease costs ten fold soon enough. Obviously now we have the anxious wait with Oba but I hope to god he stays as our attack rivals any other in the premiership when in full flow. Worst comes to worst if he does get a long injury again, at least we'll have viduka alongside martins up front (and the january transfer window!)

She is stunning, look at the footballs on her Fuck would I go to a training camp when shes askin for a shag
