I reckon Parker would have been alright if he hadn't have been captain. Although them turns he always did were annoying.. and there was that time he bottled out of a tackle.. Hmmm.

Haha, god you're right. I misread it. Just heading off to clean the egg off my face.

My uncle who lives in Moscow says that in a local paper we've been linked with Vagner Love. Had a browse on the ol' net but couldn't find anything.

The transfer window isn't open yet and Emre never played for us. Give it a rest. You're like some sort of anti-fan.

I don't think anyone's exactly starting a Emre hate campaign. People just have a problem with a certain person here making it sound like Newcastle United have held poor Emre back. He's spent 3 years here and had every opportunity to do well, he's even had the support of the fans despite his constant inconsistency and pathetic injury record (which frankly I don't even believe were all geniune). Its Newcastle United who should feel cheated and be looking for better, not Emre!

Fine, we get it, we've known for some time now that you're a mackem, at least in spirit and soul and whatever mode relevant for making mackems subhuman scum. With this kind of perception, no wonder i am the butt of jokes in my workplace both in Uk and France, not because i support Newcastle but because i am part of the deluded army of fans who keep thinking that we are better than others but in fact we are not. enough of this cynicism on my stand on my club, i do not care abt what these decluded fans think of me, i am a big fan and yes, i acknowledge we are not that good and a top12-15 club. So??? Yeah, fucking clearly. You're annoying and constantly pessimistic. You witter and whine about NUFC being a small nothing club unable to compete for players and unable to achieve a top half finish. You're blatantly not a fan, but if you was that'd be depressing as hell. Why do you actually support Newcastle if they're so bad? Oh, good of you to stick with us in the hard times over the the last 3 years of premiership football. Real good of you. Have a star.

espana. golllllllllllllllllll!

I know this is completely theoretical, but I think that the likes of Paisley and Clough would be up there in the Premiership. Of course it's all opinion and we'll never know. In the grander scheme of things, e.g. pre-Premiership and Internationaly, Mourinho still has much to achieve.

Wouldn't this make it easier to sell Shola and Alan? No, because we'd need to keep them for our 'quota'. Duff isn't English by the way.

Oh yeah, my post was in jest by the way.

What a dissapointing signing that would be. Oh fuck off, at least you lot get as far as medicals. Bah!

We should sign Simon Adabesi. He'd be fantastic for the cruching tackles. Shame he's dead though. Spoiler tags!

Why do people seem to think that we can only play one formation? Can we not mix and match to suit opposition? Just don't get why some people make out it's one or the other.

Haha didn't didn't Enrique join because of Luque, and then we sold him about a week later?

The Modric thing is getting lots of people worried I think. We're still not entirely sure on the ambitions of the new board though (not that I'm saying they have to prove it this early into the summer), so IMO it's quite understandable that they are nervous. Especially when it comes to a player that seems to be highly rated such as this guy. I don't know personally. I think at least some sign of intent needs to be shown before the Euros, lest we get taken for mugs after it. I just don't want another fiasco like the last few seasons with last minute deals springing up. We know that players have been scouted and there is a list of players that they want.. maybe I'm simplifying it, but as such there hasn't been massive progress. You may say that it's only early, but that hasn't stopped other teams bringing players in already.

Interest from Spurs Apparently, Spurs have bid 13M yep, a spurs fan, who may not be my friend for much longer sent me this http://img396.imageshack.us/img396/1157/picture1ea7.png Wouldn't it be great if he turns down the bigger Spurs offer to sign for the Toon? Revenge is what I am dreaming of... :-( What pisses me off - assuming these rumours are true - is that first off Spurs sign Modric, our first choice. Fair enough, kick in the balls but we'll get over it. Lets go for our backup target. Hang on, Spurs have lodged a better bid. So not only do they go for our main target but then our backup? It's fucking ridiculous. After they sign this guy they'll probably STILL buy N'Zogbia and have an entirely left-sided midfield. Fuck the lot of them.

Why not??? if we think within our realm, we will never improve. Football is about the world and not about our city alone, wonder why the likes of Pool, Man U and even Spurs and believe it or not Leeds are more popular than us. It upsets me when i go to places like China and Singapore and they are not very familiar with the Newcastle name. They only know it as Shearer's club who is basically not very good. Anyway, its a chain reaction, if we are really no good and stay as over-rans, our standing be it Scotland or France will dwindle and that is negative as far as i am concerned. In a way, its a measurement of our success and progress as a football team. Give over man. I travel to Spain all year round and every time I go people recognise my toon top. When I was a teacher in Bejing people knew who Newcastle were there. And I don't get the Shearer thing, are you saying he's not very good or that the eastern hemasphere or the world think that?

Something about Gerrard really annoys me. Amazing player, but I hate the whole Mr. Liverpool thing. He was in the paper the other day demanding that Liverpool splashed the cash this summer. Give it a rest.

Ahhh mis-read. Gotcha

Doubt you're in for him. We're not. Nah, I'm with you on this one.

Sometimes real life gets in the way.

is that one of the no frills carriers? I take it the airports are nowhere near Madrid? Ryanair are the worst......I once flew to Frankfurt Hahn.....but the airport was 2 hours outside Frankfurt near the luxembourg border! (my fault for not researching it beforehand but to call their airport `Frankfurt` was taking the pi$$ on top of having to pay 30 euro return for the bus trip to get to Frankfurt - would`ve been almost the same price taking a proper airline ) Madrid has two airports I think, but I've only ever been to one. Just a short taxi ride into the city. Funny enough I use Ryanair, but I've not really had the problems you've talked about - but then again I only really fly to Spain to see people out there. EDIT Just checked it and Madrid Barajas (Madrid International Airport) is 12km from the town centre.

For flights alone you can get free flights and just pay £5 tax. I fly to Madrid quite alot and the most I tend to pay for a return to Madrid is about £30.
