    Deadline Day Thread

    I'm not usually a pessimist but I can't see us going in for anyone today. We've been pretty quiet all summer and don't pay inflated fees so surely that suggests we won't be bringing anyone in on deadline day? Just hope that we keep the small squad we have together.
  2. Surely not? I agree that Debuchy would be one hell of an upgrade on Simpson but to suggest that you'd be willing to murder somebody to secure his signature is surely a step too far. Simpson has a habit of being exposed every now and then but to suggest he's bad enough to persuade you to take another persons life? That's unstable. He was talking about killing an ant. http://www.kaheel7.com/userimages/Ant_Sound_01.jpg Even so...

    Hi, Martin, how you settling in the north east? Very well, thanks http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/0/40/123915-83012-artie-ziff_large.jpg

    Fuck QPR man. Mark Hughes is like me on Footy Manager getting way carried away when I get a decent transfer budget and pay no mind to which areas of the team need work and end up with a grossly imbalanced squad. Hope they go down.
  6. If we talk about selling 'for the right price' and considering we sold Andy Carroll for £35m, letting Cabaye go for anything less than £18-20m would be extremely unlikely imo.

  8. I don't agree with this. Granted, he said some things that didn't reflect well on the club or the board but this was during a time we had consolidated well during our first season back in the top flight and some big personalities left. How on earth could he have seen where the club was heading at that point? Nobody could ever have imagined the season we had last year. Nobody. I'd take Enrique back in a second.
  9. A fucking tenner and they have the nerve to call it a 'special' offer. Fuck right off.

    I'm starting to worry that people think I'm claiming I've just taken that. I found it on Google

    Players in public

    Had a dream the other night that I met Pards and Perchinho and had a photo with them. My wife took the picture on my phone and I thanked them and they left. She passed me the phone and I looked at the picture, I had that thing where you're mid-blink. I was fucking raging.

    But you've got Brad Friedel.
  16. Good post It's easy to look good in preseason if you are trying a little harder to impress than the players who've been here a little longer. Pre season form means absolutely nothing. The two lads are clearly talented though but I'm not goona get all giddy about them until I see them preform in a NUFC when it counts. Their arrivals should not excuse the lack of activity on the first team level, which is now getting quite alarming. I didn't say their arrivals 'excused the lack of activity on the first team level' but who's to say they aren't first team material? I merely pointed out that their arrivals had softened the blow of the disappointment of no 'obvious' first team players.
  17. Fuck sake. He's so handsome it's almost unfair.
  18. However frustrating the whole Debuchy saga is/was and the lack of incoming action so far, for me, the blow has been largely softened by how good Amalfitano and Bigi have both looked in pre-season. Couple of young, exciting looking players we've got for next to nothing.
  19. Disagree about selling Obertan for £3m. Such a frustrating player but obviously a very talented one who seems to suffer from a huge lack of confidence. I just think rather than sprinting past an opponent and then turning back and laying it off for whoever is behind him, he needs to be attacking the full back, making them back off or attempt a challenge because he's quick enough to beat most defenders to a knock past. He took his goal well last night, shifted it and ran onto it and fired it across the keeper, decent finish and hopefully a sign of things to come. Having said that, I'd be fucking mortified if he got many starts like...

    NUFC Kits

    Sorry if this has been asked already but is there any news of a third kit or will we be keeping the black one from last season? I'm only asking because we've had a third kit for years and then seemingly we return to Europe and don't have one
