Six and a half years! Outstanding work by the club, absolutely outstanding business.

Big Sam is free.

I wish we were sponsored by brown ale again loved it on the shirts.

If he's back and gets a few games under his belt this season and a good pre-season then he'll hit the ground running next season. Ideal time to come back really we'll be safe, no pressure then concentrate on being ready for next season. But yeah fuck De Jong.

Fabulous picture of bobby that, epic.

25% sell on clause, Ashely bent the bin dippers over and made them call him daddy.

What are the facts about our finances/debt at the minute. Does anyone have details of income/expenditures current debt at the minute? Just curious to see what sort of a position we are actually in at the moment.

Outstanding

Delighted for my fantasy team, clean sheet for Chech and points for missed penalty.

aye reckon Bellamy is probably the one.

Looking at the forwards we've brought in Xisco and Luque et al who was the last decent forward we signed rather than developed?

This summer is going to define more than any other the Mike Ashely regime, we need two high quality forwards before we even consider any other positions. Carroll replacement plus strike partner, had we kept Carroll we would have still needed to bring a strike partner for him during the summmer to give us options and carry some of the burden. If we sign a journey man to partner Ameobi or Best/Ranger then it's going to be obvious that Ashely intends to run us as a mid table cash generator developing assets like Carroll, Tiote, Enrique then cashing in when the big bucks come. I know this is all obvious and been said before but I do harbour a slight (very slight) hope that Ash might splash the cash this summer and bring in the three to four players we need to really give us a chance. We are a few key signings away from having a really strong first 11, if we can hold onto players like Tiote and Enrique and Colo while bringing in a strike force that can profit from the service they will get we could be lethal.

Good point, it's all about keeping this ticking over and everyone matters. Goals were always going to be hard to come by it's just a question of hanging in till the summer now and seeing if Pardew manages to pry some coin Ashley's tight grip.

Got to be a goal from a returning player, thats how the story goes just hope we've read the book.

ha hope so it's supposed to be lucky

Outstanding

We were never going to get anyone better with the transfer window shut so not sure what the outrage is for. Yeah he's prob gonna be poo but it's an extra body and cover for Ranger and Best but can't see him getting many games.

Just watched motd again and at 3 - 4 him screaming to the other players to push on is fantastic.

Our Tiote who art in heaven, hallowed be your name, your tackle won, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our three points, forgive us those who leave at half time, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, as you deliver us from mackems Believe

Praise be

I'm an athiest but saw this face and now i believe.

Sensational, is fast becoming the heart and soul of this team. Was so chuffed when he stayed on the ground and didn't retalitate. Vital for us and a must to get the contract sorted asap.

Puncheon to Blackpool!

I'd be happy with Bendtner would be a good addition if the money is right, then wait for the summer to spend the rest. I worry though that we're gonna come out with the excuse that some of the money for Carroll has been used for Ben Arfa and contract extensions etc.

Blackpool aint going down.
