and shine a positive light or other on mike ashley??? never!!!

Agreed. How much better would that team look on Sunday with a 25-32 year old Alan Shearer alongside Michael Owen. absolutely spot on and to whoever said Shola carried him??? you what??? did he carry him fuck?

or conversely, load of bollocks signing a rising youngster from a top 4 side's reserves may prove the most ambitious of all, as you're taking the chance on youth rather than on an established signing like say....jason koumas. at the same time, taking a chance on a relative unknown like Jonas, who as you put it correctly was the winger for the chap who top scored in la liga, is also an ambitious move, as it shows the club are looking everywhere and doing their homework

fucking hell!! tried trawling through pages 6 or 7 onwards, and the paranoia on here is getting craaayyyyyzeeeeh!!!!!!! this situation is like when men who don't clock on fast enough can't pick the signals a woman is sending them that she wants to shag, or is in love with them or what not. we've been given enough signals by the club, yet we are still worried about this and worried about that. as far as i'm concerned, we have so far signed gutierrez, guthrie, bassong and coloccini. how do i know? a variety of reasons, including mike ashley wearing colo's name on his back. whether paperwork is complete or not is not my concern unless we absolutely KNOW otherwise. why? because it's better for my fucking health. i'll go through the team sheet on sunday afternoon and find out who's there and who isn't. and if i don't then, i'll wait for KK post-match rant. and if i still don't find out who we've signed by then, well....fuck all of yous i'm supporting chelsea!!!

All very likely except Ronaldo is injured.

I have it on good authority that Fabricio Coloccini

then why the fuck weren't you at the ground today?? i smell an impostor

Heres a piece of rope you might mind useful for your depression. http://www.apfn.net/messageboard/11-02-06/images/250px-Knot-hangmans-noose.jpg I'm more worried about SUPERTOON tbh! gee thanks "mate"

i think we're proper fucked this time! owen, martins, viduka and carroll are out. ameobi and smith (now staying) are back to full fitness Guti still not registered, and coloccini looks to have stalled. warnock isn't coming, and we're selling milner and faye fucked

Lampard is s*** Who asked you? Dave Nope, he was asking me Nope, it was a random open forum question, and I felt obliged (although reluctant) that I had to give my opinion

Lampard is s*** Who asked you? Dave

Lampard is shit

according to Niles Starboard, of the Sheila Gazelle, yes.

Martins KO for Man U game Published Date: 13 August 2008 By Miles Starforth Newcastle United writer OBAFEMI Martins is almost certainly out of Newcastle United's season-opener at Old Trafford. The striker returned from a knee injury in Saturday's win over Valencia, but the Gazette understands Martins is still troubled by the problem, and could need a second injection. Martins – who lost his mother last month in tragic circumstances – could even be allowed to return to his native Nigeria and spend some more time with his grieving family while the problem settles down. Martins was absent this morning when Kevin Keegan put his players through their paces in an open training session in front of more than 10,000 fans at St James's Park. And it is all pointing to Martins's absence when Newcastle take on Manchester United on Sunday. His return had given manager Keegan a lift ahead of the visit to Old Trafford, with Michael Owen – set to play in a behind-closed-doors game tomorrow – still to prove his fitness, and fellow strikers Mark Viduka and Andy Carroll out for several more weeks. Owen trained on his own with Abdoulaye Faye at St James's Park, while Joey Barton was absent from the session all together. Shola Ameobi is also likely to play in the practice game after recovering from a hamstring problem, with Alan Smith – booed on his appearance against Valencia – Keegan's only fully-fit forward. Elsewhere in his team, Keegan has other concerns, and he is desperate for the paperwork to be completed on Jonas Gutierrez and Fabricio Coloccini's moves to St James's Park. Winger Gutierrez has been playing in pre-season with old club Real Mallorca's permission, and United went into this week still waiting to receive his registration. His Argentine countryman Coloccini, meanwhile, has been training with his Newcastle team-mates ahead of Sunday's game, but the club are yet to officially confirm the defender's £9.5m switch from Deportivo La Coruna. Keegan, however, still hopes to have him in his squad for the first weekend of the new season.

no really. hope you feel better soon mate. not health wise....just mean hope we unveil some new players, and you feel better about that

how i miss seeing him wheel away like that happy birthday big Al

they better fucking boo!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Speculation or you heard something i think he sensed something.....from behind

we don't know. We're not there. SSN are continuing the respect the ref debate. Winter vs. Cundy. so you mean to tell me none of you lot have mong mates at the ground? not saying he's a mong like, but no one got skirge's mobile number?

you tell porkies Flamini signed for AC Milan

sorry mate, i don't agree there. i don't believe it's the trophy they won last season, as much as it's Juande Ramos being the main footballing reason in attracting players to WHL. The man has shown he can produce exciting teams, challenge the top brass in Spain, and win trophies. IMO he's been the massive difference between spurs and ourselves this close season. Add to that european football, london, and the itk agreement society, and you would be a fool to choose us over them. no disrespect to Keegan, and i love the man, but Ramos is on another planet

So a line up of this would be better? Jonas Tiago Zoggy Duff Personally, I would go with this ------------------Martins---------------- Duff--------------Owen----------Jonas ----------Tiago-----------Barton------- Warnock---Faye----Coloccini---Beye Assuming we sign Tiago and Warnock of course! You're forgetting Eto'o man ...and Taiwo done a Salako

just got a text off a mong mate at the ground!!!! Xavi, Xavi Alonso, Joe Cole, Tiago, Warnock, Coloccini and Aaron Hughes have just come out onto the pitch making a choo choo train singing "geordies love the conga" allegedly

So a line up of this would be better? Jonas Tiago Zoggy Duff Personally, I would go with this ------------------Martins---------------- Duff--------------Owen----------Jonas ----------Tiago-----------Barton------- Warnock---Faye----Coloccini---Beye Assuming we sign Tiago and Warnock of course! keep Barton out of that side marra, he'll be banned for millenia! Guthrie can do the job imo, alternating with Butt quite a decent team that, with a hard as nails back 4
