Oh, and for anyone who watched this on Sky like me.. Did you feel fucking insulted by the way they carried out the pre-match build up? They had 30 minutes and it was split up to roughly 15-20 minutes talking about Liverpool & Robbie Keane, a 5 minute interview with Sbragia about his career and build up to getting the Sunderland job and then a 5 minute chat at SJP which couldn't be heard because of the crowd. It was a fucking joke and an insult. Newcastle is my club and I pay for Sky to see the matches and I want to hear about the fucking matches, not a top of the table snore-fest that has fuck all to do with the two fucking teams that are about to fucking play! Absolutely disgusting way to go about things, especially when they had plenty of time to talking about the fucking Pool Chelsea game WHEN THEY AIRED IT AFTER OURS! Fucking idiots.

O RLY? Where'd this get said?

I'm sorry Shay, but you're no longer one of us.

SSN don't think, they just spout out anything. Watch him sign for Everton within 5 minutes of me posting this.

Guthrie plays like he has something to prove. If we somehow manage to strengthen our midfield enough to mean that Butt and Guthrie aren't immediate starters then I daresay we'll be seeing the best of Guthrie in the not so far away future.

Seriously guys.. who really gives a fuck about all this?

Craig Fagan had a fucked up looking ear in that MOTD interview.

Nolan trained with the team on Friday, so that's one bonus I suppose.

I like his honesty. He knows which angle to work it from, fair play to him.

I think it's the fact that after all the shit he's got with comments from JK etc. he's stuck to it and tried his best to get in the team. It's this kind of thing that seperates him from the sulkers like Luque and Insomnia.

I like Enrique, he comes across as a decent lad. He has the ability, he just needs to work on it a bit more.

I love how in football people call people who are actually older than themselves "lad" and "kid".

I forgot about Lovenkrands actually. Fair point. I love how the optimism has risen ten fold in the last 24 hours. About time there was less moping about the place. Even HTT is managing it.

Yeah, before we all start getting our dicks out and high fiving each other you've got to remember that after Shay goes we'll still have the same number of players on staff unless we manage to get a few more in. I'm happy with the business that's gone on so far, but we really do need more depth.

Hyypia has been linked with Sunderland, having been seen around the area over the last few days..

Not surprised he broke his foot, he's a brittle old man.

Haha, brilliant.

I thought exactly the same thing but was too lazy to post about it. Cheers.

That agent is a fruitcake. His argument is that Kinnear didn't mispronounce any other players' names. Enjoy Wigan you ridiculous man-child.

It's Wiki, man. It means fuck all.

Old news, that. Never gone anywhere either.

We're not talking about the transfer deadline though are we. We're talking about the 5pm deadline for him to play on Sunday. So is he, just in a different context. Taylor could have signed 15 minutes ago for all we know. The club isn't known for announcing things ASAP are they now. Ahh ok. I see where you're coming from. Dont think this deal is as far along as the medical though, despite the reports. Aye, the recent reports seem to be a bit all over the place with what's actually happening.

Probably that contagious knee injury that's been going about.

10m? Like we have that much to bargain with. It'd be more likely to be a scene out of a film where cultured western folk are bargaining with the backwards tribe for acceptance. There'll be scenes of Llambias handing over his glasses and the Sporting president nibbling on them. Ashley will have a struggling sack over his shoulder filled with a stroppy Insomnia.
