  1. The notion of a "strongest bench"

    Nothing to see here really. Dunno why we expect players with no connection to Newcastle to share a life-long affinity for the club. PSG was HBA's favorite team growing up, natural for him to want to play for them at some point.
  3. I'd give it to Saylor if he could stay on the field for any extended period of time. Cabaye.
  4. Good. Despise that team, pulling hard for them to be relegated.

  6. Yes. To begin on a markedly combative note, Nations Cup has been held on a two to three year interval ever since its inception in the late 1950's. This is the way we do things. We should change because Europe has the money in football? I hope that when China has brought the world to its knees and owns the best football league and the players, that Europe is willing to move the "more prestigious" European tournament and even the World Cup to fit with the Chinese season, which runs from March to November, and hold it at an interval set by the Chinese. It angers me when these people complain of our tournament. Holding it in two consecutive years is remarkably naive and foolish by CAF, though. Groups A and D should be quite entertaining. You would figure that Morocco should stop underachieving at some point and it will be a scrap for second place in D. I would favour us to take our group, but Zambia and BF are good sides. Cape Verde are my dark horse. They play good football and beat the hell out of Cameroon in the qualifier. In my life time, Nigeria have finished second in this three times. We have finished third five times. Also, we have withdrawn once as favourites and been banned once as favourites. We have more "medals" than any other team in history, but have won only twice. Surely whatever curse this tourney has on my country must soon end. http://cdn.memegenerator.net/instances/400x/30294516.jpg Christ
  7. Fairly certain it's rather popular.
  8. Kazenga's having a decent season for BHA, rather surprised he didn't get a call-up.
  9. Pulling for mighty Cape Verde this year.
  10. You prat....teh cock Got nowt but love for you and the poor Mrs.
  11. My rendezvous with the barrister's milkmaiden produced in me a yearning I had previously sought to suppress. Verily, enough time had passed since my late wife's suicide that I allowed such a feeling to take me. I awoke from my heavy slumber as the cock signaled the arrival of dawn.
  12. D.C. United's Andy Najar to Anderlecht on a month-long loan. One to keep an eye on. Best as a RW but did well at RB last season for DCU.
  13. Agree on both points. Sadly nobody will buy him this season with the ACN and his abysmal form/discipline unless it was for a pretty small fee. Spot on lads.
  14. Woah, wasn't expecting that. Glad to see. Been a fan of his since his days at D.C. United.
  15. Not having that like. He's nicely groomed, which is presently about the only compliment I can muster (sorry Mike). Yeah I'm a fan of the hair. Do it that way myself if I had the hair for it.
  16. That Valencia kit is quite nice. Not difficult at all to design a fresh kit with simple stripes. Take note NUFC.
  17. It'd be perfect if someone saw him out and he was a complete shitbag, confirming our hatred for him. Just get the feeling he's the kind to sponsor cancer kids and donate bone marrow.

    Alan Pardew

    Amazes me we still have people defending him. He's basically saying every week that he has no idea what he's doing any more. It's obvious to see why we did so well last season results wise, the man relies on individuals and without them he's clueless. He needs players like Cabaye, Colo etc etc on the pitch every week other wise he can't get results as his whole idealogy is based around individuals. When Santon said in the past that Pardew reminds him of Mourinho i'm beginning to understand what he meant..... it's the whole idea of individuals except Mourinho is so much better in every area possible but he does have a similar philosophy that its about individuals over team like say Guardiola is. We will never go anywhere fast with Pardew at the helm and i'm confident our policy can ( when done right) make crap managers look good so if by some miracle we could get a good manager then we should go far with the players we acquire. Shame i doubt it will ever happen. Aye, we'd be just fine playing the "individuals over ideology" game if our individuals included Ronaldo, Alonso, Ozil, Modric, and Benzema.
