Wrong thread, marra.

Personally wouldn't mind if the FA had the same approach last season.

Prob got p*ssed with the extended ban on appeal. Just read that he officially left after completing the Cavani transfer. Edit: FFF not letting up, asking FIFA to enforce the ban worldwide ffs.

Leonardo isn't their director of football anymore after getting an 8 month ban for pushing a linesman He is until the end of the transfer window. Ban got extended to 13 months btw.

We really ain't in a position to make fun of that.

Moments of magicTM.

Go bid Thiago Silva's buyout clause*. *most likely to be obscene.

Tbf I think that article is rehashing old news so hold off the razor blades. Still maintain that negotiations on a contract extension should be a priority and be done soon. Even if the lad loves Newcastle, I wouldn't want to take any risks.

Wasn't there stories the other weeks about us and him being keen to extend his contract? Were there? I genuinely do not know.

PSG agrees €35m Marquinhos fee with Roma.

2 more years on his contract and you would think it's a good time to start talking about an extension rather than waiting til he has a year left. More so for a player who is apparently in demand. Will absolutely hate it if this becomes Enrique mkII.

For the benefit of Disco who absolutely loves SDN.

Didn't someone mention putting Sissoko's name to pro-Pardew comments the other day?

That'll be ol' Pardew again. The thick, ex-double glazing salesman/footballer, who also happens to be capable of mind control.

He really isn't a number 10 (attacking midfielder maybe) nor did he play as one before coming here. You have to wonder how he got sold on that being his best position.

Where did they tour? Edit: Google says Thailand and HK in 2004. Thailand, Singapore and Japan in 1996.

When was the last time Newcastle toured Asia? The only one I remembered was during the Keegan era, just after signing Shearer. Had the fortune to see them play. (Minus Shearer cos KK says Shearer should debut in front of the Geordies)

Anyone just experienced downtime?

Only good enough to sign for Dinamo Moscow. Dodged a bullet there. Cracking start, Joe.

If Pardew is playing 442, Gomis will be a better partner for Cisse.

28 in August.

16 goals and 6 assists in Ligue 1 last season. Last year of contract. Of Senegalese ethnicity. Name starts with 'Ba'. Ok, I'm bored.

Better get a good quality bat then. There will always be people buying the kit after the initial disapproval.
