The mere suggestion that Cabaye was better than Rob Lee is absolutely mental like.

Were we awarded a penalty last season, home or away? EDIT: just remembered Joselu missing at home to Burnley. Was that the only one?

And this is why you need full back cover. If we had a manager who knew what he was doing, he would have pushed to sign another full back during the transfer window.

Love the zombies frame

It would appear he might be. Thanks. Decision made then

I'm stuck between these 2 sets of options: Son, Sane, Aubameyang or: Eriksen, De Bruyne, Firmino Thoughts? I think the second set is better midfield wise and that Eriksen and De Bruyne will get more points than Son and Sane, but Aubameyang had a pretty fucking impressive amount of points for the minutes he played last season?

Where's the Puncheon rumour coming from? He's fucking shit.

Can’t keep saying the next window is the real test. What use is taking an A-Level when you already failed your AS, GCSE, SATS, Spelling proficiency? The only test now is whether we can get Ashley and chums expelled ASAP before they can do further damage. A wonderful whoosh.

Probably time to lock this thread until January. That's the real test for me.

Has all the makings of being a flop for us like - small centre back who spent a season in France but returned to parent club because new manager didn't see him as part of first team plans. And we'd be chucking him into a fairly toxic atmosphere. What could possibly go wrong?

They seriously expect us to be able to close 2 deals tomorrow, despite the fact that there aren't seemingly any players even close to signing at the minute? What nonsense man.

We only have Dummett who can play left back with any competency and we only have 3 fit centre backs so yes, I would say both are a major priority. Another number 10 is pretty urgent as well in my opinion but that's never going to happen with us refusing to pay more than a few million for anyone.

We're not signing anyone else. That N'Soki guy was probably the only potential deal. Rafa had probably sorted it all out a la Keegan with Hyypia and then the cunts above him came along and offered half of what PSG / N'Soki were asking for.

What's he saying?

Why would they sell him? Not that we'd pay actual money anyway. According to my mate they want a streamlined squad and also want to stay within FFP rules, so if they sign Traore they will likely sell Cavaleiro. Also said that the manager has never really fully trusted him. My mate rates him quite highly. All irrelevant of course unless we sell Atsu or someone first.

My Wolves supporting friend has just messaged me to say that their local papers are linking us with a move for Ivan Cavaleiro.

Are there actually any reliable reports of us being in for N'Soki?

Got a link? I can't see it on their youtube channel Get the Google Chrome extension called 'Touch VPN', set it to Germany and then use this youtube link: Brilliant, thanks.

Has anyone got the url for the youtube link please?

We need Jamaal to get in a room with Ashley regarding the bonus issue and give him the Diame treatment until he promises to back Rafa.

Isn't Meyer meant to be class?

Oh here we go. Guarantee it's going to be 'actually Newcastle have a net spend of £50m this summer, when you take into account agent fees, signing on fees, lifetime of contracts, dry cleaner bills and stocking up the cafeteria with additional tea bags'. That cunt can fuck off and die as well. He's as much part of the problem as everyone else.

You may as well bring the entire club down from the inside Rafa, because it's fucking rotten to the core and needs burning to the ground. Feels like the end is nigh for Rafa and no-one could blame him. Tell everyone what cunts they are.

Another busy day of rumours and incomings I see. 8 days to go. Great stuff.

And yes, the local press can also fuck off. Instead of saying 'Newcastle can't afford the £8m fee' how about something along the lines of 'despite raking in tens of millions from outgoings, the fat cunt refuses to spend a single penny and is running the club into the fucking ground.' Honestly man, this defies belief.
