Tbf we would still have the same white border even if we had sticked with Adidas.

He's probably not even injured.

Anyone else feel that Martinez is using injury as an excuse to withdraw him from the match and subsequent attention/dog's abuse?

Hardara, hahaha.

Jonas instead of Marveaux. Pardew will prefer Jonas for his workrate and defensive role against Man City. Marveaux to get involved mid-week instead.

Most likely Simpson and Perch at FB imo.

Off to dream about Saylor making his England debut and I will wake up fully expecting that to come true. Fate tempts.

You know you want it really http://www.themag.co.uk/assets/YC0005_Yohan_Cabaye_Newcastle_United_NUFC.jpg darn, I was waiting for that gif to turn alive. Edit: Just saw this https://plus.google.com/110260043240685719403/posts/B7wkn2WBL6r

22 starts in all competitions this season so far, more than the previous 2 seasons (11/12- 14; 10/11 - 12). 4 short of matching his most appearances in 5 seasons. Hopefully it's a sign that his injury worries are behind him.

Obviously faked the injury.

Adkins confirmed at Reading boss.

And nothing happens to Matthew Wilkes, not that a one-match demotion is significant punishment in itself.

Fans outside the clubs Owen had played for seem to think favorably of him. He has rode much on his early career and reputation.

He played some matches at DM for Deportivo but didn't do well/hated it iirc. Only the copycat Colo who can't hack it in defence plays in DM anyway.

Just imagine all the goalkeeping prospects he could mentally destroy with personal training sessions.

Keisuke Honda as well. David Bentley.

Must be a medical adviser to Pardew.

But I said it was understandable. But still 16 goals in 24 starts. Yeah, Michael. You're always right.

michael owen michael owen ‏@themichaelowen 17m I just didn't want the fans to think I had deserted the club after relegation. I didn't. michael owen michael owen ‏@themichaelowen 18m Newcastle did make me an offer to extend in 2008 when Joe Kinnear was manager. Apologies to the club if there has been any confusion. michael owen michael owen ‏@themichaelowen 19m Just to clarify. My tweet yesterday referred to no contract offer after Newcastle relegation. Which I said was understandable.

Stadium size is nothing if you give away free tickets and don't generate sufficient revenue from it. Short must be sick of throwing money away. Fwiw it seems Moyes always has the final say on any transfers so the point on him worried about his board selling players is moot. He can do much better than Sunderland anyway. The writer must be really bored of a slow international weekend.

Typical Benfiquista response:

Why are people so surprised? Didn't we agree he's part of the furniture?

Brendan with the envelopes.

Fwiw Man City's CoMS deal by comparison. No idea where the money from redevelopment of Maine Road goes to though.
