Right. Let me get this straight. You believe that JK is staying, because the club have apparently offered him a contract, but you don't believe the club about anything else that was answered in the Q&A? The only problem i had with the Q&A was the 'challenge everything in 5 years' - which lets be honest is quite a statement. When someone says they have been offered and doesn't get denied by people in charge. You can't really argue against it - as that is exactly what has happenned. There much be some substance to it. I dunno mate. We'll have to agree to disagree. I personally think the case could be similar to what Ikri posted a few posts up

More to come I think

Spot on word word. My sentiments exactly. Love you baby

Are they allowed to modify the original plan? Is Kinnear in the new plan? Wise up mate! He isn't exactly going to come out and say they're ditching JFK in the summer! Absolutely love this smiley though....so i'm going to use it for the f*** of it They aren't ditching JFK though in plain to see mate. Everything that has came out of the club in regards to the future has indicated that Joe is going to be there, this offer of a long term contract - that he won't sign yet but it's in his desk - a pretty big clue. This ain't been rubbished by Newcastle. He is here to stay, and in my view they have planned for him to be here in the next 5 years and 'challenging' like Villa ..because he works well with Wisey and himself. when some people have an agenda, they can't see through the smog they produce when talking shit. tell me exactly why they would come out in public and rubbish the contract offer story? why exactly would they start handbags with the manager of their club, and quite possibly the only man lunatic enough to stay in this job at the moment?

Well, I'm no accountant either. But as I understand it, it's not debt that they're afraid of. They however see the losses we're making at the moment as bad debt owed on poorly performing players such as Owen, Duff, Smith, Viduka. Players who have not earned their keep since being here. Once they get rid of these, I get the impression that they are not afraid of getting into the good debt by bringing in players that fit their long term plan of buying young and hungry contributors to the cause.

Glad to see some questions were certainly not censored. Llambias also sounds like giving it a genuine crack at answering them. We'll see what transpires in time.

Hmmmm...let's have the full text then. Looking forward to reading the whole thing

Where's all this talk of Curbishly? Horror of a manager!! Why would he want to come here?? Why t'fuck would we want him in the first place!

IMO he is the type of manager we need to be looking at. Someone relatively unknown but with a CV that's improving all the time, who can come in, relate to the younger players, and be given time to work along the lines of the club's long term plan. Martinez sounds like being just the ticket.

... and Ginola. mackems.gif Give over man mackems.gif I knaa!! Ginola brought over bags of footballing grace with him. I remember our first game in them hoops against Sheffield Wed. Ginola played out of his skin and scored a cracking goal. Beardo's finish was immaculate too mind. never forget his goal against ferencvaros...glorious One of my favorite NUFC goals of all time naturally. Wish I could have a GIF of it in my sig *hint * hint

But he bottled it big time, and Almunia made him s*** his pants. Just needed a little chip. or squared it to Bent who was in for certain

But he bottled it big time, and Almunia made him shit his pants.

They passed the ball around alright. But their side is chock full of pansy fannies with no bottle. Had Arsenal kept 11 players on the pitch, they would have rolled them over.

Stunning design and everything, but for me, thats not even a logo!! A banner maybe? yes. A logo? never in a million years. There is not a single reference to NUFC. meh

Which is why he should not come now. He should come in the summer, rain or shine, have a massive clearout and assemble his own squad.

mackems.gif better than Dogba anyday

More tarnished than him faking injury so he didn't have to play against City? He didnt fake injury did he? I thought that was the "officila" line that clubs give. officila club lines are a right bastard

Yeah, Okocha, Djorkaeff, Hierro, Jaaskelainen - s*** they were! Not forgetting Gary Speed of course. Oh hang on - he came from you. Stop reading the redtops and think for yourself. As much as I loved Garry Speed, i'd hardly call any of those exciting, Speed had by far his best days with us. Okocha = one of the biggest african underachievers in recent times You're being silly now. Not really. Okocha could have had a far bigger career than he did in the end. Far more talented than to end up spending his good years playing for a non-entity club like Bolton. No doubt he was a class above when playing for Bolton, but unfortunately he couldn't hack it with the big boys.

Stop reading the redtops and think for yourself. tbh it was a dig at you for half talking shit on here. I have a lot of time for my Bolton supporting mates, and some of them know their football unlike others. I don't read redtops as Im not even in the UK at the moment.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/2009/01/30/newcastle-and-wigan-battle-for-derby-star-kris-commons-115875-21081959/ Been crying out for us to bring this lad in for donkeys now. Can't believe he's stayed down there so long. Class act imo. One of those who will make the step up no problem.

Not terribly exciting news. Nothing exciting can ever come from Bolton really. But as has been said, we're buying a strong character, and if he's fit enough to start premiership matches will be quite useful to us now. Similar fighting mentality to Butt's, with better technique and goalscoring ability. Probably the only player slower than Butt mind

I feel ya brother
