We will and you will just have to lump it. If we do buy both then I'll have gender reassignment surgery. I'll then change back so you'll just have to trust that I did it, you know I'm as good as my word.

I doubt very much that we'll buy both, I was taking the piss.

Shut the fuck up. Pieters will cover left and centre back.

I know this will never happen so shut the fuck up () but it would be hilarious if we spent £15m on 2 class left backs.

You do wonder how the author's found out all this stuff mind. "Wenger did this, the board said that", it just reads like he's heard a couple of rumours and written his own story from there. I used to really like Arsenal but they get on my tits a bit now, Wenger comes out with the same old shite every single year and it's a bit sad.

As a side issue Bruce really is fat as fuck, as much as I don't like Pardew his svelteness pleases me greatly.

Exactly, I've said it before but Shepherd's appointments seemed very reactionary. Keegan's too cavalier, recruit the more pragmatic Dalglish. Dalglish has taken the fun out of it, recruit the sexy football merchant Gullit. Gullit has no idea what NUFC means to the city, recruit the local legend Bobby Robson. Robson's too soft, get that arsehole Souness in to smash some skulls. He kind of stumbled across Roeder and Allardyce being our manager always seemed to be on the cards for some reason, but the Souness appointment in particular was an example of bowing to public perception of how the club was being run and just getting a radgee in for the sake of it. :thup: But nobody - or no significant number of people - objected to Dalglish or Gullit at the time. Souness, yes, was a guaranteed disaster and, yes, a kneejerk reaction to the young guns' p*ss taking of Bobby. Tbh I had never thought that Souness was first choice to take over after SBR - wasn't he plan C or D? So I'm not convinced that there was a conscious move to bring a disciplinarian in. Souness was about to be sacked by Blackburn, other candidates for the job at Newcastle couldn't or wouldn't take the job. Blackburn didn't want Souness but he was still under contract so we paid Blackburn a seven figure sum for his services. That is my understanding of what happened The next manager after Robson was 100% not going to be anyone who could have been perceived as a soft touch whatsoever.

The mods on here aren't too fond of fun. They saw neesy having a bit too much fun once and ripped the rules up and made new ones.

Think they played this after the match, fair play to the daft mackem cunts.

I beg to differ tbh. I'd happily take another bottom half finish (as long as we're not in danger) as opposed to finishing 8th-10th if it helped us get to the League Cup semi's giving us a decent chance of winning something. It's been too long since we had a good cup run and we're not going to win the league any time shortly. That's fair enough. It has been too long since we won something and realistically this Cup is our best chance of doing it. I'm just saying we shouldn't be putting our first XI out on Thursday night knowing we've got Fulham on Sunday afternoon. Mix a few young lads in with a few older heads whilst giving players like Tiote games to get him up to speed. Oh I agree because we shouldn't need to put a full-strength side out against Scunthorpe to get the win. I went to the 4-0 home defeat versus Arsenal last year and was pissed off that we'd fucked off another chance to have a good go at winning a trophy by playing a weakened side. But a few days later I was torn because we beat the mackems 5-1. In hindsight I'll forgive it because it was our first season back up in the top flight and matches against Sunderland are a special case, but in general we're not in a position to basically deliberately lose a cup match when we've went such a pathetic amount of time without a trophy. And seen the likes of Birmingham, Leicester and Portsmouth win trophies in the mean time. I'd be astonished and annoyed if any of our lot genuinely wanted that tbh. I want us to win every game but some games (and competitions) are more important than others. The team we put out against Arsenal that night was akin to deliberately losing the game imo, we wanted to get it over with and move on. I was on about the fans like, but it's a fair point well made. Oh right, fair enough. Yeah, once the match comes around you want nothing more than to win it but I knew it was a waste of time when the teams were read out. Didn't stop me being as radge as possible during the match, it wasn't too bad an atmosphere at all iirc. Anyway if we ever won a trophy then all hell would break loose, it needs to happen.

Great video, watch it before it gets taken down.

:lol:

He doesn't understand that nobody wants to watch his shit football. Life's too short. Kean wasn't the only alternative, they should have appointed someone else and they'd have been fine if they stopped trying to sign Ronaldinho and instead brought in a few half-decent players.

Marveaux definitely needs a game and that side should win without a lot of fuss.

I've changed my mind - 1-0 to us, Coloccini.

I went to Tup Tup once and only once, and met Les Ferdinand (and Steve McManaman). I'll never accuse Les Ferdinand of having bad taste, ever. By the same token I'll never return, wouldn't be caught dead in that poncey shithole.

Wildly generalising in other words.

Tbh I wasn't making a comment on Fulham's side or manager, was merely making an observation on the vast majority of performances from non-top 6 sides at SJP in the last few seasons.

Their obsession with class when they're one of the skankiest clubs going and have a load of dirty bastards in their side is becoming more and more hilarious.
