Guardian: Shearer clears way to become Newcastle manager
Fatwax replied to thewellander's topic in Football
Newell has taken the job at Grimsby Town, count him out -
Must have been a London fixture, that.
-
I've never seen that available for the PS3.

What was you doing on that site? I like Jonas and all, but I aint cruising bizarre pseudo-porn sites for his likeness. Now Nile Ranger on the other hand..
-
Have I woken up in Bizarro world here? When did ANY club want Taylor? He wants to go to Spurs aswell does he? Sorted. Get him and Dawson infront of Gomes. Sexual.
-
What's the bet?

Well yeah.. but we would have stood a better chance of winning if we had left our creative output (Jonas) on, and taken off the player that hadn't done much and looked knackered - Duff.. When we had 3 strikers on the entire team lost shape and pace. Martins was the only player left on with any real speed on him and he'd be ineffective all match anyway. His subs are regularly either clueless or far too late, some examples: Man City - Andy Carroll came on instead of Xisco and Carrolls lazy as fuck jogging about and lack of bal retention led to City counter attacking. Sunderland - Brought on Gutierrez & Barton on in the 80th minute pretty much, far too late in the game. We needed these players earlier. Fulham - See above, removed the pace and ruined the shape of the team.

Morgan has always been a cunt. Disgrace to the sport.
-
Good article, that.
-
I think drugs like coke would be the most commonly used in the premier league due to the lifestyle of some of the players. I don't think it's a massive problem, but I think that drug testing should be a lot more stringent. I had to take regular drug tests in one of my old jobs and I think that the current method of dope testing in the PL is way below par.
-
Apparently he wanted to go, didn't get one with one or two players at the club.
-
On a slightly brighter note I've read in several places that Butt is going to retire at the end of next season.. IF we get a new owner in and IF we get half decent manager that is in control of transfers I'd probably not have any major problems with Butt being here one more season and watching from the bench. But of course, this is Newcastle and in all probability we'll see Duff and Butt high fiving eachother and having money fights in the centre circle for years to come.
-
If we get a favourable draw for the FA cup 3rd round I imagine that's when we'll first see him play for the first team. I very much doubt we'll be seeing him in the premier league at all this year, or even this season.. and if he does it'll most probably be through necessity rather than choice. Really excited about Ranger though, he's a demon for the second string!
-
I never wear my home strip for away matches, whether I'm going to them or not. Whenever I do it we tend to lose.
-
Tomorrow will be the 5th televised NUFC game in a row, all in the league aswell I think.. then the papers point out our low attendances because people would rather watch it on TV than go to a midweek game. I hate this season, you get fuck all teams playing on Saturday at 3pm. Sky & Setanta have pissed the league about.

Like I said, sweeping generalisations etc. etc., but to be honest the fact that I've never met a nice Italian person doesn't really help either. I was at the San Siro when we drew 2-2 in 2002? 2003? and it was fucking horrific. The Spanish have a history of racism, this is a fact, but I've never personally witnessed any from the fair amount of Spanish games I've been to. You can only really comment on what you know and learn from your own experiences and I've not really had any good ones from Italian football. And like I said, it really bores me. Maybe I've been spoilt with ACTUAL football that has excitment and tempo, rather than slow and poncey buildups of defensive passing that'll eventually lead to a greasy Italian wonder-goal..
-
Except Italian football is boring and racist. Big sweeping generalisation I know but I don't care. So there.
-
Thing about the City goal is that although the finish was pure luck, his control of the ball and body movement was spot on. Really bizarre really As for the other point, I don't think one person on this board said one good thing about Shola during the Keegan era. And why would they? We had Owen, Martins & Viduka firing on all cylinders. I am absolutely perplexed by the resurgance of wor Shola. If Kinnear some manages to get Alan Smith to score a competitive goal here then THAT will be an achievement.
-
I'm made up for Oba aswell, I can't remember the last time he got a brace in a match.. hopefully he'll go on a bit of a run like he did in his first season for us. I think it's no small coincidence that Enrique as resurfaced to the first team when Jonas has come back from injury.
-
Kinnear likes a strong targetman type striker, I very much doubt he'll drop Shola for Owen.. and I reckon he'll be more likely to choose Owen than Martins regardless of his last few goals. Saying that though, I doubt that Owen will start at Fulham either. I'd love it if that was the case and Oba really fought for his place.

We beat Reading? I'm guessing it was the Pompey draw after that. -
Haha cheers, for a second I thought I wasn't down with the slang. But I totally am. Word.
