Great signing for them. Can only just hope Ipswich squeeze them for a high fee. If not then not to worry, Bruce will spend it on pies/shit players anyway.

What a load of noncesense.

He could sell Crouch, Jenas, Gomes and Palacios and it would barely de-strengthen their squad at all imo.

It's a bit like Danny Baker's goals and gaffes

He's a clown always has been. http://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/gallery/files/3/8/6/7/pot-kettle.jpg

This is no more or less mental than Nolan wanting 5 years. It's blatantly a negotiating stance; he'll have told them he wants to go and they'll want as high a fee as possible.

Duff was by and large an abject failure during his time at Newcastle but blaming him for the defeat at Villa Park is bordering upon laughable.

Pity Duff didn't make more of an effort when he put the ball in his own net against Villa. yeah, that happened because he wasn't trying.

Keith Curle is the biggest cunt in the world.

He wouldn't be much of a fret.

They'll have seen that we're in for wingers, that so far we've paid minimal fees for players (Cabaye's being relative) and that this lad's played in the Premier League before.

No quotes, The Mirror. Even if we do get him, he's not going to be playing every week. He'll be replacing LuaLua/Routledge as wing cover.

Khizanishvili played in that as well, I think.

Lovenkrands did have poor games in the Championship but so did Carroll, he was by and large shite up until about late December (the WBA cup game and Cardiff Friday night game being the turning points). It's poor criteria to base everything on, really. I'd group Routledge along with Lovenkrands and Guthrie that he's useful against the bottom 6 or 7 sides but other than that he'll struggle in the majority of games at Premier League level. I say majority because Ronaldo will say he did well against A.Cole, which he did tbf.

agree with JH there. I was absolutely livid with him after the Stevenage performance, that was the straw that broke the camel's back for me. However, watching Simpson on the wing and loads of square pegs being forced into round holes during uninspiring draws/defeats made it obvious we shouldn't have let him go so fast without a replacement.

Didn't see that coming. Yep, Carson often has that problem, it's why he's so shit.

simple fact is young is better than n'zogbia.

1m N.Taylor 1m Puncheon 1m Hulse

We didn't buy Forster high though, did we?

Why do I get the impression that Ashley's negotiating techniques are like Homer Simpson in the Rosebud episode? "Reject the first offer, reject the first offer." "Can I offer you £1.5m?" "Sorry Celtic, no deal!" "Don't worry Neil, it won't take long for him to crack" "Gotta call Celtic! I might still be able to get that derisory fee!"

If we were to sign N'Zogbia I think we'd start to carve apart the shitter sides, particularly at home.
