Mkay, reformartted it

Btw, Neymar scored Barça's 1000th European goal yesterday. That's his first bit of club history carved up.

Worst record for a manager in charge of NUFC for more than 10 games. Ever. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Newcastle_United_F.C._managers

Mancrush incoming, get him in. Why are French football people not named Ribery so handsome?

Luiz looks completely lost without Silva at the side. Some of his "marking" yesterday was farcical. Iniesta's run was amazing, but Neymar should have never had it so easy in that position.

McLaren would feel like Klopp or Guardiola compared to the mess currently disgracing your bench. I guess that was part of the plan.

They have had time since January FFS.

First half is easily our best performance since Guardiola left. Wish we were more consistent. Live European nights

Sevilla have been run like that for a decade, and they have a few trophies to show for it. It can be done, but it requires to reinvest the profits of sales decisively, and to reinvest them well.

Excellent article. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-d57yeOXl9Kw/VTOr3RZmv2I/AAAAAAAAIcc/1Dqk6tauqMI/s1600/4%2BNewcastle%2BProfit%2BLast%2B4%2BSeasons%2B2014.jpg Says it all. This, too: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-VIN5lynWwHE/VTOsvpSr3HI/AAAAAAAAIdU/JlW1bJgh2ok/s1600/11%2BNewcastle%2BRevenue%2BGrowth%2B2014.jpg Shows that the club isn't well stewarded at all, they are just milking the TV revenues, while there's no growth on other fronts. Hell, commercial and match day revenue where higher before he took over!

To be honest, you probably have a pretty good rep among agents as a springboard club. Remy, Debuchy, Cabaye, Ba... Hell, your board doesn't even put up much of a fight when selling (unlike Spurs, for example).

Not as much as a deal as it would seem mind I know

Janmat can do far better than Southampton, imho. Hell, he'd probably start for us.

Different league and all, but La Liga is full of strikers that don't expect to receive chest high balls.

Just pictured Ashley owning a Turkish or Serbian club.

Ayoze never led the line for Tenerife, he started as an AM, although he eventually ended up playing as a foil for Aridane, the big lump they used as target man.

If they hadn't had that surge in form earlier in the season they'd be fighting the drop.

He's never made much of a deal of that. Seemed bitter about Pardew in particular but then you'd hear him talk and he was all "but that's the past". He's just extremely good-natured.

They're all cowards, man. Even Shearer's scared to say what he truly thinks on TV or to Carver's face. It's an old boys' club of the biggest pussies in the United Kingdom. Definitely. Do you get that in Spain too VI or is it an English thing? Pundits love to rip managers into shreds over here. But we don't have so many former players/managers as pundits. Those tend to be tamer.

Hadn't heard about the FOI until today (I'm not from the UK though) How does that work? Can anyone just fill out a form and get the information or do you have to have a proper reason why you need the info? https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/guide-to-freedom-of-information/what-is-the-foi-act/ Wasn't aware that football attendances were a matter of the public record. Emergency services probably need to know in case there's an evacuation. Good point. Probably they also need to make sure that maximum capacity isn't being exceeded.

A week from the derby, and I'm already trolling the hell out of my Espanyol friends like there's no tomorrow. Feel like a bully That wonderful David Squires strip about living with the grief of being a small club fan is seeing plenty of airtime.

Congratulations Brummie, I hope you can bring the cup to Birmingham. Good luck.

How come you're here, on these forums? Don't mean to sound like a dick or nothing, just a genuine question since you're a Barca fan Old story; when SBR died I came to this forum to see how his people remembered him. Ultimately ended up loving the place and the natives.
