fucking hell, what a miserable summer

the day before the reading match, we'll be told that we're nearly sold just so to protect ashley when he shows up.

b..b..b..but moat's a geordie - why would he pull out?? methinks ashley should prepare to get mightily abused if he dares to turn up on saturday.

Why? well he knows the club, he's local, he's not a yes man and from the sounds of that 5live/radio newc broadcast he knows exactly what he'd do here. plus he now has managerial experience (even if it was only toronto).

John Carver would be a great shout, but because he'll be seen as "shearer's voice in another body" itll work against him. shame.

jerome thomas to west brom on a free transfer

Interesting......

he'd be better than ryan taylor

if only we can play him somewhere where his constant running is a benefit, without worrying about crossing. unfortunately, CM doesnt seem right and we're well covered there.

for those of us who think the kids should be given a go, his track record with them is good....

oh dear its like ITN news when they discovered graphics EDIT: I mean, why the fuck does he need to be there beside the tables?? he's doing nothing....

that norwich goalie is shocking!!

this should be called "The Newcastle United Show"....they can't get enough of us.

i fear theyre gonna be too brief, with 3 leagues to concentrate on. it looks that way so far.

oh my god!!! why does this keep happening good player an' all

A few obesrvations: 1) That away kit is still lush 2) Carroll and Jonas look identical (apart from facial hair) 3) Coloccini isnt even Championship standard 4) Alan Smith was pretty handy today 5) Carroll and Ameobi as a partnership will get us nowhere 6) BBC need to stop slow-mo replays of Alan Smith tapping his head/Krul fist pumping 7) Ranger coming on was like the birth of a child to me 8) Ryan Taylor is RUBBISH 9) Watching Tim Krul at corners/crosses will haunt my dreams 10) For all the fears about this season...we'll be fine.

4-0, unbelievable. i'd laugh, but this is exactly the type of implosion we're famous for

think viduka signed for pompey today

(River) Nile, (Power) Ranger............come on River Power, you can do it!!!! He's coming off the bench to bag the winner, 86 minutes, 3-2. .......nah we'll lose, but its still a lovely thought

just seen this news, one reaction - thank GOD for that!! anyone but hull......

I don't believe that Journal article at all, hopefully its just there to calm us down a bit because this is by no means a done deal. ashley is in hawaii?? what a total bellend. although this meeting today is to find a compromise, so its positive he hasnt outright rejected it and is willing to negotiate.

i'll believe it when i see it. west brom agree a fee for mattock..........this summer can hardly get any worse. I find it funny that West Brom signing random kids from League 1 is what is making this summer bad for you. a) he's in the Championship now b) i said it's making it worse

i'd be very disappointed in habib if this happens. partly because hull are guaranteed relegation, but mostly because he can do so much better.
