Fuck me. You said you were quietly shitting yourself not 2 weeks ago. On here.

I'm not sure we'd have signed all these players if we got Remy actually, and in that respect I'm happy how it's turned out. Wouldn't mind another forward like.

Player's dad causing trouble again? We need to target orphans only, going forward.

Liam Ridgewell too.

He doesn't want to come here? Who the fuck does he think he is!

erm well i cant see him praising the city in that article, probbaly still thinks its naff. He probbaly does highly rate the football culture here tho. 2 seperate things isnt it? That's a fair point. WHAT THE FUCK.

Aye and he's rapid Also mint on Football Manager, which is all that really matters. Are you honestly saying that it doesn't matter what he's like on FIFA?

If we get this guy in as well I'll be surprised and delighted. Already delighted tbf, it's been a very good week.

Aye and he's rapid Wewwwwww, rapid! Remember that? Only highly esteemed radgies used it.

To be honest I haven't been averse to the idea of Tiote leaving for quite a while now. I used to be of the opinion that we'd never spend a penny without selling players first or later (still not convinced otherwise like but fingers crossed) and Tiote leaving was the lesser of many evils for me. Thought we could get very good money for him and spend it on 3 or 4 good players, including an able replacement. I'd love us to keep him and get him back to his old form though, it might be easier for him if he's not playing every game in a struggling side. It would be fantastic to see us build from here and create a good squad with competition for places. The potential of the club's there for all to see, I think getting a sniff of success last year and seeing it seemingly snatched away due to tightfisted opportunism (opportunism that is to try to do it on the cheap and hope for the same results) has really brought the frustration out of many on here. There seems to have been more patience from those in the stands on the whole but I'd put a lot of that down to generally getting a good kicking as a fanbase down the years with expectations dampened as a result. Not that I think the crowd should be kicking off every 5 minutes but I've been surprised at the lack of anger until recently. I think my main concern now is whether Pardew's the man for the job, I personally don't think so but he's got a few months to prove his worth.

At what point does the removal of so many people from one country become an international incident?

What a thoroughly bizarre post. No idea what the Wallsend stuff is about. OK, ignore the horrible person comment which is harsh so I apologise. The point I'm making about your impeccable timing is valid. To pop up at the optimal moment and dig up and mock posts by people who were genuinely and understandably concerned at the plight of the club (while you were nowhere to be seen) is a coward's trick. You know it and I know it, it's obviously beyond you to turn up again and show a bit of humility after the few months we've just had. Who would I hate to lose? The 2 you've mentioned, absolutely. I'd have said Colo but I've unfortunately got used to the idea. Cabaye is another, so is Santon. I'd like to see us keep Marveaux too.

Agree with most of that, except I hold a (possibly misguided) hope that they've re-thought this ludicrous purple players nonsense. I think Tiote might be off as well mind, although how much do you think we would get for him? Certainly nowhere near as much as once upon a time. £10m absolutely tops, probably more like 6 or 7. Still a nice profit, mind.

Oh and before you accuse me of being drunk which is your usual knobhead's trick, I'm up early as I've got a coach to catch at 8.

Such a horrible person, quite frankly. Anyway, it's really handy how you've managed to get your internet back when things are beginning looking up for NUFC now we've suffered a lot of the consequences of last summer's neglect. It might have been really tricky for you to defend the indefensible over the last few months, although I'm sure you'd have given it your best shot. Oh actually, I heard there was functionality on Tapatalk for you to actually make posts if you like, did you realise that? If you could return the favour and let me know more about the "Store away old posts so you can lord it over people like a smug prick after hiding for months" feature that would be much obliged.

Where you been all season, Stu? Out of interest.

I've just checked and it's still mathematically possible.

Bit of a frosty welcome for the poor lad.

Doubt he had a clue tbh, would imagine he's had his transfer baths at similar times to the rest of us.

I wonder if we would have signed anyone this window if we were mid table, serious question. I'm delighted we've taken action like, was frightened to death we'd sit on our hands again. Good stuff, still lots of hard work to do on the pitch once these signings are all completed.

Someone was showing pictures on his phone the other day claiming they were of the lass, chinese whispers on a grand scale Or there could be truth in it Either way I find it hard to believe if there was a serious illness the club would not have just came out and said that was the case. Sounds like he can either sort out a sensible fee for someone to buy him or lump it as far as i'm concerned. I know it is a cliché but he gets paid 60odd grand a week ffs. I got told he'd got a 14, 17 and 18 year old lass from Crammy up the duff in the space of about 2 hours the other day. It's bollocks. If he's got 3 different teenage birds from Cramlington up the duff then this really is a serious situation. Particularly if he's done it over the course of 2 hours, seems like really reckless behaviour.

What if turns out that Pardew shat in Coloccini's hair spray? Would be bang out of order from Pardew, if it's true then it changes everything.

Wasn't that the Telegraph?
