  1. And just as objectively you'd have to agree that Phil Neville was a far better footballer than Shearer. Using the competitions won by managers managing different teams, in different leagues, with different financial clout, at different times is far from as objective a way of measuring as may seem. Apart from with us Keegan has never managed a team which has anywhere near the resources necessary to win the big stuff. He's always taken on teams which were a challenge and needed turning around, and as such he got each of the teams he managed promoted as champions the first full year he was in charge (I think). He very nearly won us the league 3 and a half years after almost being relegated from the second division. Are those lesser achievements than winning the Dutch league with PSV, or a cup with Barcelona? Well, objectively, yes they are, but for me I'd rather have Keegan as manager than Robson because given the same resources I think he'd win out quite easily. Phil Neville isn't a better footballer, but rather a more successful footballer. FFS so is John O'Shea. Ronny Johnsen, Jesper Blomqvist, Nicky Butt....etc,etc! Its a frightening list to say the least!
  2. Thats it! Fucking hilarious! I'm hoping its because he couldnt give a fuck what to call him as he's flogging him for a nice price! In reality, we'll get an old button, a half sucked sweet and some fluff! lol!
  3. They just showed a clip of him on either SSN or Sentanta, i'm switching between both so cant remember. He was talking about Charles Insomnia! Took him 2 attempts, still said i wrong so just called him "Charlie". What a cuntbag!
  4. posted it on the other thread, beyond words this eh? he needs putting down like a Sounds like he's been jailed here! Done 11 years at newcastle!
  5. Mike Ashley was worth £1.9Bn at his highest so if he's lost £2Bn he owes someone £100M. So more shoddy journolism? lol!
  6. Found this and posted it in the barton/owen injury thread, but think you should read the bottom of the article! We really are fucked! http://www.football.virginmedia.com/page/Football/PremierLeague/Headlines/0,,12555~1537291,00.html
  7. Don't know if this has been posted, sorry if it has.....although the end bit is very interesting! http://www.football.virginmedia.com/page/Football/PremierLeague/Headlines/0,,12555~1537291,00.html
  8. Own up, who was this? T'was me. http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=52791236063&ref=mf Just joined the group! :colo:
  9. Anyone ever seen "A Shot at Glory" (think its called that anyway!) "Stars" Robert Duval and Ally McCoist!
  10. Saw this as well. Def on his mobile! And as for the overtaking.....Lock him up an throw away the key!
  11. The ball doesn't seem to be sticking up top for us, we're too small! Shola anyone?
  12. I'm just waiting on the "FA Take Pity on Newcastle" Headlines tomorrow!
  13. JFK has probably found out how to say "get your fucking act together" in a perfect argentine accent!
  14. Lost a bit on the dogs before i put the bet on so kinda broke even! My mates dog won at Yarmouth tonight as well, 2 in a row now! was 3/1
  15. i just got one up. Did Chelsea, inter and Barcelona to win and a liverpool draw! Not much but still, a win is nice! :colo:
  16. Surely it's a good thing we're at least discussing this calibre of player though? That's my point. But in the same way, KK could say he looked at signing Ronaldo, as he's a player he likes. Never going to happen in reality though is it? Same with Nasri on a lesser scale. Given he's young and French, the choice between us and Arsenal is a no brainer. But even after saying all this, i can kinda se where your coming from that its positive, just that in reality, he prob wouldn't have signed for us!
  17. Dunno if its been posted but a stat on Setanta yesterday was that we have namd a 38 player squad, of which 16 had never appeared in the Premier league. We can all do the maths to work out ths is only an "experienced" squad of 22. ( which is including Jonas, Colloccini and Bassong before anyone queries that!) From this we appear fucked, we need to add a good few players ASAP but at the same time it shouldn't be just any players to get the numbers up! It appears we are between a rock and a hard place, do we add numbers for the sake of it, and maybe upset the balance by taking ages to gel? Or do we add two or three and hold off to January to add more quality numbers?
  18. I've done villa and sunderland games for two draws! Only 10/1 but we'll see what happens!
  19. What a cunt Shaun Custis is! Just said we should be referred to as Newcastle upon Thames as all our board are based in London and how "there seems to be quite a few of these key meetings between KK and Ashley"

  21. Made his fortune from sausage rolls, quiche and chicken wings at weddings!
  22. Coloccini, his Argentina team-mate Jonas Gutierrez and former Liverpool junior Danny Guthrie, who could all make debuts at Old Trafford tomorrow. We must be having a six day week this week! Obviously no Saturday, aparently its Sunday tomorrow!
  23. Where can i get it from? Just order it from the official site? Not exactly readily available in newsagents in Northern Ireland! As i said before (above) where can i get hold of the interview?
