Means they can make a big deal out of this and thus sweep Gerrard under the carpet.

There's more chance Osama Bin Laden will be there than Ashley. Come to think of it I reckon I'd even take him as an owner now over Ashley. He's got more money.

Shola's goals were Kaka-esque. What's going on...

Look, seriously, why do people continue with this utter crap?

I think messi is Irish. He is Irish, from Portadown I think? We're not irish in Portadown man! Maybe he omes from that wee part that thinks they are, probably why I dont know him, believe me all the newcastle fans know each other in this town, only is about 5! Haha. No I'm not from that wee part, quite the opposite in fact. Just don't feel the need to go off on 1 if someone refers to me as irish, not the end of the world like. Our part of the world is a joke like isnt it The barriers will never be broken down. man goes fishing, only catches 1! I wasnt fishing, I didnt know people found it offensive to be called Irish in some parts of Ireland. Im aware that some see themselves as British more than Irish, but not that they didnt see themselves as Irish at all. Some people get shot for those kinds of mistakes. And before everyone attacks me for saying something naive, I live in the town where the fella was shot dead the other week after the Rangers/Celtic match, so I do know what I'm talking about lol

first you'd have to get the better of his 'powerful physique'

First I've heard of it. Im sure you cant transfer to another club within a year, therefore he is ours till next January at least I'm pretty sure the rule is that you can't play for more than two clubs in a season, and therefore could be sold. If we could find a buyer, and a way to make him accept lower wages, of course... Robbie Keane? Only stayed 6 months.

Sexuality is not a conscious choice, imo. Becoming MA's size seems more of one, though.

I'm sorry, that's inexcusable and not want I want to see on this board.

My friend down in the CurrentTV studio in London says the name above his on the guest register is Michael Owen. Wonder if he's going to do an Oxfam-style appeal on tele to get someone to sign him.

Michael Owen Used to get the ball flowin'. Yet after an ACL His pace was shot to hell, And now his true colours are showin'.

Can't blame him for wanting out.

Date doesn't suit I'm afraid guys

BBC reporting Kaka signs for Madrid for £56m.

Explain to me how this has been done outside of the transfer window?

What updates do we even get? June 1st: Shearer walks into building. Leaves 8 hours later. June 2nd: As above. June 3rd: No Shearer present. Mike Ashley goes to Gregg's. Barely worth doing - it's all just speculation that's probably nonsense and more exciting than reality.

Haven't done this before, would would def be interested depending on date.

MA: Who the hell is this guy? DL: I dunno boss, I just thought he looked kinda pretty. Guy on wall: ...

Mike: "Chips or pie, I really don't care. Just get me something, would you?"

I think he should be partnered by a DM like Butt. He's got good vision and distribution, and isn't afraid to take a shot on. I particularly recall I think it was the Hull game when he just evaded a sliding tackle with ease and drifted a pinpoint pass to Jonas on the other wing. Beautiful. Guthrie's still young, I think in a few years he'll be decent Premier League material.

Man United fans wanted Ferguson out at the start.

Shearer should be given at least two seasons (unless we're going to get relegated from the Championship). We're in the second tier now, and we should take the time to properly rebuild. I genuinely believe Shearer can have the effect Keegan had, but no one could motivate the squad we have atm. Owen being Captain was just so symptomatic. Shearer's a not a fool, he will be able to assemble his own squad. Let's see what he can do, and I mean two years. If I see steps forward, I'm happy. Even baby steps, so long as they keep going forward. Because we've been going back for five years now.

Was absolutely awful for first half hour today, then seemed to get his act together a little.
