Na, I think Real are just shit tonight.

No. Hate those cunts so much. It didnt even hit Heinze's arm!!!! At least Juve are winning....

New Ireland away shirt is mint. Although I see Kevin Kilbane is doing a Stevie Taylor with his chest! :colo:

:lol:

I'll always call it St.James' Park. Always. Just checking- has there been a rumour from the club that the name will be changed?

Agreed. I hate modern football.

Adidas is just the perfect sponsor for Newcastle United....cant imagine us without it. It just doesnt suit the likes of Liverpool...

Ye thats been happening to me recently, as well. My mates mainly want NUFC to win so Im not in a grumpy mood for the rest of the week, I think....

I've heard we're looking at Lonsdale for kit sponsor.... And as for that retro Toon shirt- Easily one of the best shirts I've ever seen. Unbelievable!! Pity its not gonna happen, though...

I'd probably stop following Newcastle United if we did that. Disgusting thought.

I know how it is, its so infuriating.

Was it Luque or Owen signed instead of Anelka? If it was Luque then Imo, we could have got Owen for cheaper. Madrid only bought him got around 8 or 9m! He was surplus to requirements and I'd say if we had clever people running the club he couldve been ours for around 13 or 14m.

Agreed. Simple but brilliant, they just try too hard these days... Cant wait to see our new home one!

It's funny because I said I thought we'd beat Pompey at home I obviously think we'll t*** Everton and either of Arsenal and Chelsea! Edit: Forgot what I came here to say. I hate the fact that the semis are at Wembley. Plenty of people whinge about the clubs ruining the FA cup but that completely fecks up the attraction of getting to a Wembley final. It's wonderful to be in a cup final, but there's nothing special about the stadium if you played there a month earlier. I agree, it degrades the final. Villa Park and Old Trafford should hold the semi's but that doesn't pay the debt off from the new stadium. w*** playing semis at Wembley. Hope Arsenal win the cup. No particular reason why. Arsenal or Everton, for me

decent at best? He looked f***ing class last season, even at 21 Good, good. Again, thats only from what I've heard. I never saw him play for Depor... decent at best? He looked f***ing class last season, even at 21 Yep. He wasn't - and probably never will be - a prolific goalscorer, but he was really good at bringing others into play and using his strength to cause problems with the oppositions defence. EDIT - After a quick look I found this article on Guillem Balague's website that came out when we signed him: http://www.guillembalague.com/blog_desp.php?id=66&titulo=Newcastle:%20Xisco%20under%20the%20spotlight It pretty much backs up what I've said about him and yes I do watch La Liga. Cheers. Thats a good read and he sounds very promising. No doubt we'll ruin him as a player, though....

I love that away one! Mint. The home one aint bad either.... If Adidas didnt sponsor us I'd happily take Puma. Well, between them and Nike...

They sound pretty ambitious. Wonder where abouts in Gateshead the plan is for.

I stumbled across this yesterday. Its a very annoying and never-ending survey.... I wish they could ask us things like "Are you happy with match day ticket prices?", or "Are you pleased with the way the club is being run? What changes would you suggest?"....instead of asking us what fucking newspaper we read!

This.

Lets be honest, the way Man Utd are playing it'd be disgraceful if they didnt have the best away support around...

Agreed.

But surely Kinnear cant stay....surely?!! He's just had a bloody triple bypass on his heart, and he's in his sixties.....he'd be a fool to take the offer. In saying that, though, we'll probably end up with Colin Calderwood instead...

We'll be working on a shoe-string budget with a shit manager. Fantastic.

I've been thinking about this a lot, Dave, and Im very pessimistic about it myself. They're so naive that we're bound to end up in trouble again. I fear that we'll be replacing players like Owen and Viduka with no better than average players, and if we avoid a relegation dogfight then mid-table mediocrity beckons for the next few years. Its a horrible thought but I really can see it happen. The thing I fear most though is having Kinnear appointed full-time. If this is to happen then its clear for all to see what the clubs ambitions are; saving money. There will be plenty of players looking to jump ship in the summer, no doubt. I feel very depressed about our future....

Surely PL TV money, advertising etc. etc. would be better for Ashley if he wanted to make money. Sorry, I meant IF we go down he'll have a cost reducing plan to spend less to get us back up. We'll lose a hell of a lot of money next season should the worst happen.
