Johnson is SO shit.

LOL

Heskey?  What.  The.  Fuck.

Johnson's one of the worst players I've ever seen in an England shirt.

Can't people see the officials are corrupt?

As usual, shite.

We have money to spend.

I have an ITK at the club, and scouting is still going on for players to bring in from the top two tiers.

I got the impression from her that the situation has changed somewhat from a month or two ago, and there is now limited cash to spend.

I predict that if anyone actually get any right, they can't claim victory on here as then they'd be posting the fixture lists.

Anyway, my predictions:

First day: Chelsea (A)

End of September: Arsenal (H)

Boxing day: Blackburn (A)

First 2011 league fixture: Fulham (A)

Last day of the season: Blackpool (H)

Second half of the season Bassong was terrible, so many needless fouls and lapses in concentration.

 

Beye was pretty poor all season as well, never got going after injury.

 

Enrique was solid as ever, in fact our only defender playing to premiership ability.

 

 

Beye was not poor all season, and Bassong was never terrible.

Enrique was no where near as good as he was this season either.

I'd say they were all much of a similarity, the only one with a notable decline was probably Coloccini.

Capello suffering from Hughtonitis in his early days.

Play a left winger on the left wing, does that seem so extreme?  Joe Cole should have played there.

We're desperately weak in defence if Carragher is next in line.  What's he even doing there?

Line-up should be:

                      Hart

Johnson  Terry    King    A. Cole

Lennon  Barry  Lampard  J. Cole

            Gerrard

                      Rooney

Anyone else concerned that Rooney's last goal in a tight international win (i.e. not a 4-0 or 6-0 win) was in 2005?

f***ing get on with it.

Probably already been posted but:

WTF?

Fairly good accuracy from the lads shooting, tbf.

Looks like Chelsea are handing players out on a platter, Belletti now too.  Surely better than Simpson.

If we aren't going to be making cash signings, these are the sort of players we need to move for for a year to ensure Premier League survival.  Ballack is not a long term option, but surely is as good as Nolan.

Would seem a real shame not to capitalise on any of this.  We don't want to be left bringing the likes of Pancrate in.

Getting a new contract could mean something else.

Alternatively, it could just mean he's signed a contract.

Why would Birmingham want him, they've just spent £5m on a target man!

 

And similarly, why would we entertain the notion of selling him. I'd lose any of the remaining faith I have in our current set up if that happened.

It would directly contravene the club statement - building up using our own academy, as well.

James given Number 1 shirt.

We're signing a guy who scores goals in Scotland for fun, quite literally hundreds, and we're signing him for free.  All supposedly.

And some people here still wouldn't have him.  On a free.  Christ, guys, what do you want?  Liverpool giving us Torres and £100m for taking him off their hands?

I quite like it.

How come? It hasn't got strobe f***ing lasers attached, just a few squiggly lines.

Either Enrique's or Pancrate's, with Gutierrez's first one up there as well.

Was at SJP for all three 

Some of the s*** in here, wake up lads when will you learn ?

 

We can only afford to sell Best & Xisco thats it, non of the others would be replaced with better players and you now it. Season after season in the Prem we suffered due to not having a big enough squad and ending up with injury after injury.

All you would do by selling those suggested is to weaken us massively, no point selling Smith & Barton then bringing in one lesser player. S Taylor would bring good money but all Ashley would do would expect Kadar to step up.

 

SELLING IS NOT AN OPTION!!

 

Only at Newcastle would we be having the same conversations about selling players after both relegation and promotion. That's just not right.

 

This!!!

Scored that stunning goal that I'll never forget.  Awesome moment, being there.

Obviously would have benefitted from longer runs in the team, but he wasn't good enough to force his way into the squad.

Good luck to him in future, and thanks for the six months.

We'll be up for sale again.

76:04 Akos Buzsaky takes a shot. Hogan Ephraim gets a block in.

Cheers, buddy!

Vuckic and Carroll coming on.
