Toon No9

Absolutly brilliant player. Seems to be a nice bloke with a big heart. Also used to play his trumpet in the dressing room!

Get realistic man! One step at a time, not a quantum leap!! No way in a million with Ashley sanction this level of progression. Nor would they come to us unless we're at the top of the tree, in the Champions league etc.... Ok, lets settle with Colback back from loan then! The optimism in here, man...? There’s absolutely no middle ground between Herrera and Colback. None. That would be Tom Cairney then. ? ? ?

I think Ayoze will leave if Rafa doesn't sign a new contract. As will Lascelles, Schar and Dubravka too. Rondon won't sign and Lejuene will leave when fit again. It's vital to keep Rafa. And for Rafa to stay I think it's vital that Ashley sells the club. But it must go fast and thats not Ashleys strength(either).

w-w-w-w-w-wages dude Isn't that one of the issues Rafa wants to change IF he signs a new deal?

IF Rafa stays I hope he tries to sign Mata and Hererra from Man U. Both have contracts that runs out. I think both are players that will suit us and maybe Rafa can persuade them to come here.

They aren't ready and i want us to smash these tossers so want full strength. They will never be ready if they never gets the chance. Now we have nothing to lose! Can't let all our younger players get their debuts when they are 21 or 22 years. Then it will be too late. We've been doing that for too long now. Let them get a taste of it when they are 18 or 19 and then loan them out for a season at a league one team where they will play. Better to test them in a game against Brighton that means nothing to us imo.

Yup same. Maybe it's hyperbole but at this stage, Rafa IS bigger than the club. Reason being is that he embodies everything we wish the club to be; hard working, honest, excels at his job and feels genuine love and a sense of pride being a part of it. Rafa is not bigger then the club. Would love for him to stay but it won't be the end of the world if he leaves. There will be a time when he won't be here, sooner or later. The most important thing is to get rid of Ashley. He's the real cancer and nothing will change as long as he is here. In a perfect world Ashley leaves and Rafa stays though.

If Liverpool beat Cardiff today and we're matematicly safe I hope we get a couple of young players a chance in this game. Watts and Sorensen maybe. Give them a taste of it and some experience. Could do a lot for their education and we have nothing to lose by doing so. Also play Shelvey, Atsu and some other players who we might sell this summer.

Maybe Rafa leaving is what we need to get the fans so angry so Ashley feel he can't be here anymore. SELL UP AND LEAVE OUR CLUB ALONE!!!

Everyone at NUFC was often injured at that time!

This is a great idea. I really hope who ever buys the club is looking into this. Really interesting.

With PL safety (all but) secured I would like us to have a real go to get our voices heard and get Ashley out. This time of the year is the best time for Ashley to sell the club and for a new owner to buy before the transfer window opens.

It all depends on how much money you have and want to spend though.

£300M for Newcastle is a bargain! But I think the price has gone up to a minimum of £400M now. Still I think with the potential the club has it's not a bad buy even for £500M.

Yes, I think so. Should be the identity of the club and something the supporters easy can recognice.

What's the point with the away and 3rd kits. The colours has nothing to do with Newcastle and the designs are ugly. The design of the orange kit must be the worst kit ever. Absolutly horrible!!! I think the away kit should always be like the one we have this season. And the 3rd kit should always be blue or a classic yellow.

Agree 100%.

Yeah, this I think.?

Is this official? Should've got his chance earlier in the first team I think.

Would love to have Steve Watson as the new U23 coach and Lee Clark to be part of the staff as well.

Don't remember who it was but one Everton player stamped on Hayden and got a yellow card. Anyone else who thinks Shelvey would've been suspended if he had done the same?

A draw in this game would be an ok result. Looking att Cardiffs schedule I think they will at best(for them) get 9 or 10 points in their remaining games. Then 3 or 4 points will keep us safe.?

Should we start a protest now or something?

So we are suggesting Carrick didn’t reach his potential? The £100m is a mad statement at this point. 7 starts. That's not what I meant. I just think he's more attack minded than Carrick was. Not suggesting he's better or even close to him yet. If he were to reach that level though, he would be scoring and assisting more simply because he's a more attack minded player. I think he looks more like a Frank Lampard type of player. Calm on the ball, good decisions, good passer and a good shot.
