  2. only waiting on Cardiff now nice little win and I won £70 after joe won x factor result
  3. Southampton millwall Huddersfield cardiff £18.60 returns £239 and change at coral
  4. When sit in row Z and the ball hits your head its wor Shola
  5. Instead of penalty shootouts how about players being given the ball 30 yards from goal with just the keeper to beat That way a bit of skill is required Also refs should be issued with pepper spray That would stop any dissent in it's tracks
  6. Theres only one United and they play in black and white Newcastle Newcastle
  7. To the tune of Kum Buyar For F*@ks sake Marlon, trap the ball For F*@ks sake Marlon, pass the ball For F*@ks sake Marlon, have a shot Ohhh Marlon f*@k right off Not very positive but best I came up with
  8. I can't believe that Shola and butt aren't on the list Next year mabye
  9. You know him don't you Was pretty decent a few years back The fella with the teeth
  10. The overdraft is an unknown however its less than £40m now as per Barclays rules. We;d only really find out the true stuff when we do due diligence, if the clubs in a s*** state and we couldnt afford to run it then we wouldnt buy otherwise we'd be putting the club in deeper crap than it is now. This is what kind of f***s everything for everyone at the moment. We only find out how much the club costs after due dilligence... Yes but then again, all that the NUST have done so far is asked for people to REGISTER there interest in the idea, the next step will be to pay a 10% refundable (minus 5%) deposit, followed by due dillegence if it gets that far, then pay up the rest of the money and hopefully the end result is we get rid of Ashley. At the minute people are getting too far ahead of themselves. Exactly, and if it then turns out that we werent buying the club the deposits are returned (minus the 5% hamdling fee) so as I said before if you were looking to invest £1500, you'd pay a deposit of £150 to the Escrow account and if it all went pear shaped, you'd get £142.50 back. So if the NUST manage to raise the estimated £80 million the investors will each pay 10% into the escrow acount, which works out at £8,000,000 If it then goes pearshaped during due diligence all deposits are returned minus 5% handling fee This handling fee will be worth a total of £400,000 based on a registered £80 million but I would imagine that the NUST are hoping for a lot more than that The whole financial world is like Chinese maths to me but that seems like an awful lot of money to me
  11. If the sweaty socks insist on joining the English leagues then they should start at the bottom of the pile and then earn the right to play in the top flight Out of interest if they did go straight into the prem what would happen if they both finished in the bottom 3? Would they be prepared to play in the Championship? Would they throw their toys out of their pram and storm back to Scotland? Would the SFA take them back? Or more likely would the FA bend over backwards to find a way to keep them in the Prem?
  12. I'd have a nice cup of tea and a biscuit Nothing too flash Probably a custard cream or a hobnob
  13. Don't know if it's been mentioned but I enjoy major tournaments more when England don't qualify
  14. Found this on same website I have highlighted some points that may be of interest Posh rookies may face NewcastleNewcastle v Peterborough United, 7 November 2009 By Alan Swann DARREN Ferguson will take a 'bold is best' approach to securing a shock Championship win at Newcastle on Saturday (3pm). The Posh boss is prepared to gamble by throwing two rookies into the fray in front of 40,000 baying Geordie fans. Teenage centre-back Ryan Bennett and attacking midfielder Josh Simpson (below) - who was delivering furniture for a living seven days ago - could well be involved from the start at the home of the table-toppers. Posh boss Ferguson is planning a new formation for the toughest trip of the season, but he will not be abandoning his attacking principles. Ferguson said: "We will play in a slightly different way tomorrow. Our philosophy won't change, but our formation might. "We will be going there to win and we will still try and play in an attractive manner, but we will hopefully have some surprises in store. "We want to put on a performance fit for our surroundings, but more importantly we want three points. "I don't have the biggest squad to pick from, but in Ryan and Josh I have two new players who look ready to me. "Ryan impressed me from the minute he walked through the door. He is a very mature young man and he has trained very well. "When he came here he was someone I thought I would be able to use pretty much straight away and from what I've seen so far that is true. "And Josh looks to be a big talent who can do a job in the Championship right now. I'm very happy to have him here." Bennett's height will be a factor in his chances of selection as Newcastle's highly-rated young striker Andy Carroll has a massive physical presence. Bennett could replace error-prone centre-back Craig Morgan or Gaby Zakuani, who was substituted midway through the second half of last weekend's disappointing home defeat by Barnsley. It's unlikely Shaun Batt will retain his place up front, and with Craig Mackail-Smith rated very doubtful because of a hamstring problem, Posh may flood the midfield with Simpson, fit-again Paul Coutts and Dean Keates all competing for a call-up. George Boyd could also be asked to play close to lone striker Aaron Mclean. Mackail-Smith joined in training yesterday and travelled north with the team today, but club insiders believe he is unlikely to be involved. Teams: Posh - (from) Lewis, Lee, Bennett, Zakuani, Rowe, Whelpdale, Diagouraga, Keates, Frecklington, Boyd, Mclean, Morgan, McKeown, Coutts, Simpson, Martin, Pearce, Mackail-Smith, Day, Green, Batt. Newcastle - (from) Harper, Simpson, Kadar, S. Taylor, R. Taylor, Colocinni, Enrique, Smith, Butt, Gutierrez, Nolan, Carroll, Ranger, Donaldson, Tozer, Krul, Guthrie, Geremi, Harewood. Newcastle's Hughton admits Posh have some great players NEWCASTLE manager Chris Hughton has admitted that Peterborough possess great players. Hughton was impressed by the Posh performance back in September when they dumped Newcastle out of the Carling Cup. He's confident of a different outcome tomorrow as The Magpies attempt to stretch their unbeaten home run to eight league matches, but he will warn his players against complacency. Hughton said: "It is a completely different scenario this time around, although it is worth revisiting the cup match. "That night they showed they are a very tough team to play against and they have some great players. "Yes, we did have a young team out that night, but certain things do stick in your mind. "They beat us on merit that night and proved that every team wants to be beat Newcastle. "Teams like Peterborough and Scunthorpe will always raise their game against us and Peterborough are sure to fight hard for everything tomorrow. "The teams that came down from the Premier League with us last season have also struggled at times which shows how tough this league is. "But our home record is there for all to see, although we are due to win a game comfortably. Hopefully that will be tomorrow."

  15. I'd love to see that reporter's face if somebody went through George Boyd early on in the game and he had to be taken off. I'm still amazed a Journalist has written a piece like that. Ok 10 reasons why they can beat us is a good line but mentioning George Boyd twice? I counted Boyds name 4 times in the article
  16. Don't know And more importantly I don't care either
  17. Supremely confident of a positive result tonight Sheff Utd are a bit pants really so quite fancy 2-0

    Celebrations.

    Klinsmans dive when he played for Spurs is was one of the best celebrations ever Why the keeper felt the need to run the length of the field to join in is beyond me though Looking forward to seeing what Alan Smith has lined up
  19. Played for england loads of times. But he is being unfairly overlooked now. FYP Good point, I'd have him in the England team for every game. Sure, there's a chance he'd pick up a career threatening injury and the FA would have to pay his wages for us, but that's the chance you take. I would pick him for the England Rugby team as well Is there an England Basejumping team?

    Nile Ranger

    Fabio has called him up for the first team on Wed :colo:
  21. i think he was speaking at a sporting chance clinic function or something like that and well if your a reporter you'd obviously ask about it. In fairness I'd hope both shearer and barton could act as adults to each other if he came back because we ain't going to be able to offload him, no one will chance it with barton. In the summer transfer window someone will try to buy him (if he is fit) Probably whoever gets promoted with us or a bottom 6 Prem team Hull would certainly take a chance on him if Phil Orange is still manager I doubt it, if there was anyone willing to risk a move to barton he'd be gone already If he was fit it would be easier to move him on in Jan as mangers can be desperate for new blood I still think the Tango man will move for him as he probably believes that he is the only manger in world footaball who is good enough to get the best from Barton

    RIP sale thread.

    Why would you want a bunch of amateurs to buy the club? I would rather a group of well intentioned professional investors purchased the club with a well thoughtout business plan
