We could get half an Mbiwa for that. And it'd be better!

Villa and QPR? Clubs that have just bought Alan Hutton and Luke Young in the same position? I like Simmo, he plays OK and seems like a nice guy. He's very replaceable but we may as well just keep him as backup.

This place over the last few days

So how bad is this thing Fletcher has? To a medical novice like me, its just long words. I know what bowels are though....

Perch and Smith it is, then!

Can't stop thinking of last January but if I'm being honest, I don't think anyone will go THIS TIME. It'll be a hellish month though

Eh? Have I missed something? Whats happened to Frank Lampard this week?

Looks like a return for my super popular pronunciation thread..... http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,76936.msg3027189.html#msg3027189

That is the best song ever And in what way is Obertan an angel? He looks like Mr Potato Head and plays like he's scared.

Once Ba gets back from Africa it'll be interesting to see if Pardew backtracks on seeing Ben Arfa as our #10. Otherwise we'll have Ba, Maiga, Best and HBA competing for 2 spots while Obertan still gets in the team.

Dunno how Vorm didn't get any bonus points. The system is a scam!

Obviously my brain couldn't handle that rumour and accidently filed it under 'long time ago'.

Can anyone remember the Puyol - Stevie Taylor rumour from a few years ago?

Wonder what the Frenchies went as....

Can't remember the last time I heard a stadium so quiet, it was embarassing. Blackburn's tactics were shocking though, Sunderland probably deserved to win. At least Super Saint Messiah O'Neill of Martin led them to victory.....that place really is a stain on this earth.

Must admit, I doubted Barca would beat them this time. But after the early calamity, they were brilliant. Real can be as great as they want against everyone else, but Barca know exactly how to beat them.

Would be gutted but for £30m you can understand. Dont think he's quite good enough for Chelsea, but hopefully Carr has a Sissoko/M'Vila lined up. If true, its dreadful news but hardly a surprise. Anyone expecting anything good to happen at this club is in denial.

Aye, lets throw on our superstar player to risk him 2 goals down and a man down with 15minutes left To risk trying to get a draw? For me, there is nothing better than Ben Afra going forward and equally from what I have seen - there is nothing worse than him going backward. He seems to run around without the ball like a headless chicken. Gave a needless pen away in recent games and not being fully match fit has also lost the ball in positions and in game times when it could have cost us dearly. On the ball its a whole diiferent ball game. he is very, very good when going full pelt. I can see why Pardew does not put all his faith in him like. Yeah you're right. But by that point the game was already lost, I'd rather we just went for it.

He's consistently doing awful substitutions. Compound that with his loyalty to certain objects of shite and things aren't rosy anymore. A large part of this defeat is his fault.

Krul Santon Simpson Coloccini R Taylor Ben Arfa Cabaye Tiote Jonas Best Ba Switching the full backs so Raylor has help. Although I'm sure Pardew will find a way to shoehorn Obertan, Perch and Smith in. But we could and should beat these. 3-1

I'd rather circumcise myself and lob the whole thing off than watch him 'play' football ever again. He drives me round the bend.

A disgrace to the sport tbh

Liked him today

47 points with 6 to play. Vorm 12, Nani 15, Van Persie 12, Enrique 6

Never a straight red, but probably a second booking. So we've got a second crisis position now? Awesome.
