    The ones doing the most moaning now are the same ones that sat on their hands for 10 years while the rest of us sacked Ashley off..

    Absolutely.

    I don't know why every one of our signings needs to be a potential superstar or a young player. Sometimes you can paper over the cracks for a season with decent loan.

     

     

     

    It's just not the Newcastle way (unless we've been relegated). Can't remember the last decent proper first team loan we had, Distin? Discounting Hall obviously as he was all but ours the moment he arrived.

  3. Any chance we're only looking at DCL as he has more sell-on value? Get decent value out of the Tripps swap, then sell DCL after a year or so at the age of 28/29 for 25 million. Given we managed to get 15 million for Chris Wood, who was largely shite for us I don't think that would be an unreasonable amount. Plus we could then afford the Wilson sale this January if someone wants to offer us between 5-10 million.

    Not just you

     

    Initially I was thinking red card but this angle is probably what saves him as the arm is down rather than across the throat

    I was literally just trying to get this screen shot. Arm over the shoulder across the chest, not around his neck like loads would have you believe. It's a yellow with potential for a red, not a clear as day red as some are making out. The issue we have is the lack of consistency - is this more dangerous / a higher use of force than Schar's red last week...

    That Rowe from Norwich would have been worth a punt. Gone to Marseille for 13 million

     

    Forgot about him. Off to West Ham or somewhere in a year for 35 million, no doubt.

  6. I am desperate for us to bring in a championship player who turns out to be really good. Frustrating seeing other clubs sign seemingly average players for 10-20 million who end up really good and being valued more than double a year later. The number we've monitored and subsequently missed over the years is staggering. Whittaker looks like the next one...

    People still turning their noses up at madueke? Not that we've gotta chance of signing him now

     

    Imagine if he crossed the Tyne Bridge and had sight of Jackson Street though

     Could easily have lost that right at the end there but don't forget about all of the chances at the other end too. Neto pulled off a few really good, point blank saves that kept them in it too. We didn't play well at all but we're still unbeaten and can only get better from here, it's not all doom and gloom. 

     

    Yep, Neto made a lot more saves than Pope
