Fucking hell, if something has happened then they have to tell us. I can only assume they're still going over things, if they did have an argument in the first place.

I would be hugely disappointed in Keegan if he's chosen this moment to leave, the timing couldn't be worse.

That means he will have had a great season for us. Happy days.

There's a difference between defending him and attacking the media's treatment of it. If it was a friend of mine it had happened to i would still think this witch hunt is over the top.

What is the maximum you would pay him? There needs to be limits.

On the other hand when you look around the league there are players scoring more that probably aren't on a 3rd of what Owen is being offered. Yakubu, Santa Cruz, Carew, Berbatov, and Keane were all more productive than him last season. I won't mention Benjani because he's s****. Do those guys come free or will we have to pay a transfer fee? Did you factor that in? None of their fee's were close to Owens. That's relevant to ongoing deals I'm sure. Well why bring up transfer fee's if they're not relevant? Because those players you mentioned will all command a transfer fee. I didn't say we should buy them, i'm comparing Owens wages to more productive players in the same league. The question is, assuming these players are on less than 50k, why does Owen get 120k for doing less?

I can't stand Joey Barton, but this witch hunt is pathetic in my eyes. He has not raped a baby.

On that Deportivo forum the thread is called "ex-player topic: Xisco (striker, sold to Newcastle!) " They jump the gun surely!

"Nasri clipped his heels so that Barton was left on the ground looking hapless and indignant as play continued" So in this instance thuggery is a good thing?

He's as close to one as we're going to get at this point in time. That doesn't mean we should offer him the budget. I'm split on this matter, i'd rather wait to see how he does this season to see if he deserves a pay rise, because right now he doesn't, the problem is that isn't an option because he WOULD leave. Him being offered more leaves a bad taste in my mouth, if it was the same as he is currently on I would find it easier to stomach. I've got to question his commitment if he's turned down the same terms.

Owen isn't a world class player ffs. World class is Eto'o, Drogba, Ronaldo, Totti etc. If he was in that league he wouldn't be with us.

I'm 100% sure Man U won't come in for Owen. Nicko is an eejit.

It brings the moderators out in a rash. why The youtube pixies will come and gut us all in our sleep. They're nowhere near as bad as the fixture fairies though.

Top half, we do that then we can start attracting higher quality players(like Arda Turan) and push on.

That's fine by me.

"Owen has said he is happy to stay , but when he sits down with his advisers this week the feeling is he will reject the new offer." The window closes on monday night, he better hurry up if he's "set to leave". Gobshites.

Because they've got access to coverage of more league games with occasionally dodgy commentary? Get a grip. That doesn't change the fact it's a rip off. It's astounding how much we pay for our football compared to fans in places like Germany, and the worst thing about it is we get less choice.

Should've told her to shove her stupid question up her arse. Keegan is too polite with these people.

People who have got Setanta need their heads checked tbh. And that comment sums up what alot of people around the country think of us, i'd love it if we proved all the fuckers wrong.

Doesn't Dave Whelan have a strong dislike for Mike Ashley?

This. What if the other option is to not bring in an attacking midfielder at all? Or spend money on someone not as good?
