It's a sad day in Newcastle's history when we're trying to justify Shepard possibly coming back. Ugh.

Any quotes from Llambias or Ashley are bollocks anyway. Potential investors are not supposed to talk to either of them, only the people selling the club (Seymour Price et al).

Defoe is very clinical.

Not football players, but NBA players: ran into both Steve Nash (Phoenix Suns) and Jameer Nelson (Orlando Magic) tonight downtown.

Really jealous of stuff like this. I wish I lived in a country that understood football better.

That's a class kit.

which bar in Orlando out of interest? You should have glassed him It's a place called BBQ Bar, it's downtown. Just looked up the term glassed and yeah, I was walking over there with the intention of sharing a few kind words with the douche who had a bleached faux-hawk. Color me surprised when it's Alan fucking Smith in Orlando, Florida of all places. He went there a few weeks before we signed him too, Rich off here saw him. Maybe he's got some friends here or something. I can't hardly think of any other reason to come to Orlando when you've got shitloads of money and could potentially go anywhere you want.

Who cares what Martins has done in the Prem? We're playing in the Championship now and Martins will tear teams apart down (t)here. If he takes a wage cut I would have no problem with him staying in the squad, he would be the best striker in the Championship by a country mile.

This.

Wish I could be there dudes, this would be tons of fun.

Not too concerned. Like other's have said, it will be good to see some of our youngin's get a chance in the first team and it will be good to see us win a few matches. I don't expect us to shoot back up but it will be a good season none-the-less.

Met my first professional football player ever tonight in the form of (unfortunately) Alan Smith. He was in my local haunt here in Orlando. Seemed kind of peeved I recognized him, especially because I interrupted him hitting on my lady friend and he also probably came here to lay low. He was with a few more dudes with British accents but I didn't really recognize any of them, although I didn't get a good look either.

1-1 US/Honduras @ HT - quite a few people there too, great atmosphere.

Yeah that Everton kit is horrible.

We could easily get 7 mil for him. We're the only ones who (wrongfully) think he's shit.

All Sunderland bashing aside, Bruce is a solid manager who has a very good track record with bringing in new talent. He could do well at a bigger club where when he brings in talent, he doesn't have to sell them within six months. Unfortunately, he will do well at Sunderland and they will be top10 next season.

What even makes you think that? Because as far as I know, he's never said he was looking to stay in the Prem, only his agent said that he was looking to get Peter a contract in the Prem (and if we're being honest, who wouldn't?).

I feel bad that he'll get a lot of schtick now because of his idiot agent mouthing off to the press. Lovenkrands was one of the few who looked down for the cause and I think he'll be a cracking player in the CCC. Would love for him to stay.

Because we don't care about debt.

We dont? I was under the impression that we didn't, since we dropped from the Premier League, but someone above has cleared that up.

Are these actually any good? Or does it look like a bunch of labored donkeys running around?

it's what's known as the Newcastle effect. If what Taylor said has been true, that there's been no one-to-one training in the last 5 years, Except Kinnear yelling at Xisco for making bad runs.

Something like that might look awesome with an anchor behind it too.

Hopefully Ranger will look at his situation, and even if a bid does come in from a Prem club, tell the powers that be he doesn't want to go. If he goes to a Prem team, it's straight back to the reserves. If he stays here, since we don't have a reserve team any longer, it will be a bigger chance at first team football in a league that he can most likely succeed in.
