Interpolic

Anyone who tells me I should just shut the fuck up because I've never seen him play is 100% correct btw. Probably won't shut up though mind.

I'm really not being negative at all and that Rennes goal is sexy as fuck, but, erm, this reminds me of Xisco a bit. Hope it's nothing like it.

I can't hate Wilkins, he's won me over with his thoroughly nice chap persona since he returned to our screens, although ironically I used to hate him for exactly that. At least he's a nice bloke - he's no Clive Tyldsley, whose hobbies include rape, watching Miranda and genocide.

FFS I forgot how soon the deadline was. Such jokers running the show.

Dalglish unconvinced by his beard.

Decent side to watch Liverpool, now. Suarez aside, their other recent signings have arrived on the back of good seasons in the Premier League (half-season in Carroll's case) and I think they'll do pretty well, even if they have spent a small fortune to get there. It is interesting with Carroll, I wonder what the situation would be if he'd still not established himself by the end of this season. I don't think you could rule out a return to us at some point, although ironically the stumbling block would likely be that we couldn't afford him even at half the price.

Fucking hell man, I always forget that £50m Torres is playing up front for them and never, ever scores.

Stelling said earlier that 6 out of 9 penalties given in the Premier League this season have been missed. (well it's 9 now anyway, he said 6/8 before the Everton pen had been scored).

His goal against Rennes is pretty cool like.

That's brilliant. Was thinking "If the ball hits the net and it's not Ba or Best, it's Nolan Roux" to the tune of That's Amore (total Celtic rip-off). Anyway I know nothing about this guy but he has a cooler name than Erdinc or Maiga, so fingers crossed.

I've always hated Wraith. Anyone who thinks they can speak on behalf of such a huge amount of people is an egotistical bell end, and that's how he presents himself when he's on SSN or whatever. By contrast, someone like Mark Jensen has always given people a platform above all else, generally makes sure to stress that he's only expressing his own opinion if interviewed by the press, and is just a canny bloke at the end of the day. Just shows people have different reasons for getting involved in fanzines etc. Wraith's is borne out of self-interest.

This is the big fear.

:lol:

I've found the quotes: http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/fa-league-cups/pardew-cup-is-our-target-this-season-2343203.html Yeah. When a footballer who hasn't been able to play football for 5 years isn't getting a look-in then you must be drowning in options. Incidentally I read in another article that there's a good chance Smith will start tonight. He's a waste of time man, play kids instead. Pardew's patter is tedious as fuck.

Just heard talking about the strength of our squad on Talksport, "you only have to look at our bench on Saturday, at the players who couldn't even get on the bench, players like Alan Smith". Fuck off.

Wow, that's commitment. A few others should take note of the effort and at least attempt to string a sentence together.

It's TRon man, people have been shocked into silence.

OK daft question time. I've always wondered this. Is Pardew a product of his cuntish environment or was he born a cu... Only joking. FAO Mick: how come when you quote someone you only quote the last quote and not the entire quote trail? You are the only poster that does this as far as I know. Is it a setting or do you actually delete bits of it? This isn't my finest moment but the wondering has gone on too long.

Our set of strikers is absolutely appalling, probably worse than what we started the Championship season with. Exactly, what I mean is Ba is the minimum improvement we would have hoped for at the start of 2011, with Carroll Ah I see, fair enough.

I think Obertan is Barton's replacement. Will be fuming if we don't get a left back and striker.

2 of our best players over the last 2 seasons and permanent fixtures in our first team. Even if they were being phased out they're far better squad players than Alan Smith and Ryan Taylor. And "people like me?" One of the biggest divs on the forum trying to patronise me about my understanding of NUFC. This is a low.

I think it's a bit rich to assume that Barton and Nolan wouldn't have taken similar wages for modest extentions to their contracts without taking into account all of the other shit that's clearly went on here. Nolan was promised a certain deal in early-ish 2011 and that promise was broken and an entirely different offer was made in the summer. Barton wasn't signing his deal so the club took the huff and publically withdrew it, later making him available for a free transfer. People saying "Barton/Nolan have been given a 5 year deal on £60k a week, we could never match that" are totally missing the point. We don't necessarily need to have matched what they've now been given. A bit of honesty, respect and even charm in negotiations would have went a long way, but our board don't possess these attributes. Completely fed up with the classless way the club conducts itself.

FFS man, reading Stu's posts once is more than enough, can you fucking sort this out please?

Aye, the signs are there.
