sadly so

I am absolutely seething that they have the chance of winning their 2nd cup in 12 months. Just cant comprehend how a wank team like them can have the good fortune [/bitter twat]

would you like to qualify that statement as that seems to apply to many a player in our team/squad Aye but they havent just been given the 3 year deal. yet

the godfather of stepovers you mean? Aye. Will be interesting to see how he gets on. Could be handy as an impact player coming off the bench. Maybe it was someone else at Bolton brining in these older ex superstar players then and Allardyce had nothing to do with it at all ! Such a typical Sam/Bolton type signing. Might be decent for them. Would never have thought Megson capable of attracting that type of player

I fear he might be here, relegation or not. if we went down we would have even less chance of getting a high quality manager.

£500,000.00 House. Jesus, this world we live in

aye, 30 mil + this window would be required to get back to Par,...theres no f***ing chance of that. do you trust kinnear to spend £30 million in this window? I trust him to spend it better than Wise & Co not necessarily on better players but in the right areas and really, if they don't trust him they should remove him now and appoint someone they do. If it is they who are signing the players then I don't trust them to strengthen the areas that need strengthened much less turn down bids for our better players which Kinnear will be fighting tooth and nail to keep. I'm the other way. I'd rather Wise & co made the major decisions with JFK getting a couple of stocking fillers to keep him happy. Ideally, you want them all working together and making joint decisions that everyone agrees with

And yet Ray Houghton appears to be arguing on Talk Sport that Reilly has ruined the game, because he's never been a player and doesn't know what a dangerous tackle is. Looked like a certain red to me like. Ray Houghton comes across like a knob most of the time

From: http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/story_get.cgi?STORY_NAME=soccer/09/01/04/manual_151918.html Well one of them's lying EDIT : Actually, looking back at JK's quote he just says he enquired about him but doesnt say who to. maybe he just asked Wise and Ashley ?

Got to take into account his England appearances though. I'd imagine he'll go for about £10m. I think I saw quotes on SSN where Keith Lamb was slating them for moaning like mad over Man U's valuation of Berbatov and now they come in with, in their eyes, a derisory offer for Downing. Everyone just loves the way Spurs do business.

Good. This isnt a loaded statement I promise but didnt Joe say that he had actually enquired about Ferguson. Therefore either Smith or Kinnear are fucking lying. Why cant these people just be honest about stuff or just saying nothing. Sometimes I hate the people involved in football. They are like bloody children most of the time

Means either us or Hartlepool will be on telly I would think. ITV and Setanta will already be wanking over Liverpool/Everton and possibly Man U/Spurs.

I wake up every day hoping we have signed someone

I thought that as I clicked on the thread. Will get a piss easy home draw against a non-league side and then fuck up the replay against Hull

I hope you don't mean Matt Derbyshire. I do, I like what I've seen of him. Not the best player but a decent finisher, good movement and positioning too. Seems to have an annoying habit of scoring when coming on as a sub - sure a couple of times i have seen him do it within about 20 seconds of coming on

When you received that first phone call from NUFC, what did they say to you ?

It would be a brave man to accept the call from Ashley to ask him to replace Joe Kinnear. Not sure if there is a manager out there would would be preapred to take the role on

Maybe if he turns up on Monday and tells Joe he is called Francisco Jiménez Tejada, Joe might think he has a new signing that looks like that Xisco kid and give him a game.

What a prick Parkin is. Carragher would never have got to that ball meaning St Ledgers goal would have stood.

Random... but we just got a cat this afternoon and it was in cage number 7. Its a sign. Cup Winners 2009

What did he do... or not do ?

Whats more worrying is that if things arent a bit more stable by the summer, our better players like Bassong are going to get cherry picked by the bigger clubs. Personally I havent had chance to see the guy play but from what everyone on here says, it certainly sounds like we have someone who is vital to our future development.

I thought that. Did something weird just happen to the thread ?
