Pack it in lads. We're signing nee fucker. Just turn up on the Monday when we play Man City and support the team that's out there. This shit is doing my fucking head in. Fuck 'em all I say. Ashley, Kinnear, Pardew, the players, the whole lot. Sent from beyond using smoke signals.

Fabregas is extremely overrated. Immense talent, but has no real desire. Bottler of the highest order.

Did Reina finally leave on loan or has he made the switch permanent?

Yup. I'd move on from this guy now and onto another target. Aulas can go fuck himself.

From Pardew's perspective he was probably terrified of additional training injuries to what was a lengthy injury list. Either way, I think Jonas is spot on, and I'm glad he's come out with these comments, stating what was blatantly obvious to anyone that consistently watched us last season.

You are right. IMO Ben Arfa on either wing is a waste of his talent the way we play under Pardew. Has to play central.

Can't believe Pardew is still manager of NUFC. Sometimes if you just take a minute to think about that, what it really means, it blows your mind away. So surreal.

I didn't know Yanga-Mbiwa was that small. He is hunched over a tad bit in the photo but aye, he's small for a CB.

Shola on the wing vs Reading, the absolute zenith of tactical intelligence. Aye along with playing Shola up top when Ba left, leaving Cisse RW, because we didn't have enough time to prepare after Ba left. forgot about that excuse. "We've prepared with Ba here, we cant change it". That's a sackable offence in any profession ffs wow. just wow.

A loan to a PL or championship club would make sense. Back to France doesn't.

So Barclays charge you for taking money you have no right to take? No doubt Wonga pay people to take money off them. I presume the emphasis is on how needlessly excessive those sort of bank charges are. To be honest though it doesn't make any difference how daft or hypocritical we feel his stance is, if he's sticking to his guns and flat out refusing to wear the sponsor we need to come up with a solution sharpish one way or another. People seem too occupied arguing with regards to religion and the ethics of finance and seemingly ignoring what is another farcical situation we find ourselves in. Right from the off the reports have indicated that Cisse (rightly or wrongly) wouldn't be prepared to be seen as promoting Wonga, yet here we are in the middle of pre season with the future of our only striker in massive doubt. Just a massive mess allround ,without even factoring in all the negative press and the potential problems it may be causing within the dressing room. Seconded. It's not our place to make judgements on players' decisions or convictions. At the end of the day we are here because we hope to see a successful football team, and a club to be proud of. This situation remaining unresolved is detrimental to both of the above. Needs sorting out yesterday!

only saw his assist from yesterday. we need a lot more of that. AP bigging him as well saying he was MOTM

Al Jazeera Sports have won the rights to broadcast the PL in the middle east and north africa for the next 3 seasons, starting this august. For any of our members living in that area, you can now throw out the AD Sports package and invest in AJS. Al Jazeera now have the complete package with the PL, Primera, SerieA, Ligue 1, both UEFA competitions and the world cup. Not sure about the Bundesliga and Eredivisie though. Must be costing them a bundle.

That's a really poor example to use. Sports Direct are hugely successful where as NUFC are not. Agreed. I'm an idiot.

We've really become the Sports Direct of football. Rinky dink on all levels.

This. As fairweather a performer as they come.

I think it could be that Pardew is in last chance saloon as far as Ashley is concerned, and he may not want to spend a hefty sum this summer in case he has to bin the manager by October. On the other hand if he is giving Pardew one last chance, then surely he must back him? I reckon things will become clearer after the first pre-season game with the full squad together again after the internationals have come back. Could also be that we're bracing ourselves for bids for some of our star players. Edit: Did I just post in the wrong thread?

Liverpool supporting mate was certain that, Mkh as you would call him, personally requested his agent only deal with Liverpool because he wouldn't move anywhere else Same story with you lot every bloody season.

Ah of course!

Isn't that Valencia? and what have they done to their white home kit?

imo best of the next gen at barca

Humanity man What in the actual fuck

Brilliant save by the keeper. Well done Iraq.

Screw you man, where's the N-O solidarity. How many Iraqis do you know? Well there's Dinho Lad from here.
