Aye, decent interview. Hopefully he's not just saying the right things, but actually doing them.

Update on Loic Remy: He is still a professional footballer contracted to Queens Park Rangers Football Club. I was going to post this earlier, but I'm only just getting my break now.

Gabriel Obertan.

Would Pardew really drop Santon or Debuchy to play Dummett? Is he really that good?

Anything interesting happen when Sky Sports visited NUFC as part of their 92 coverage? I was going to watch it until they visited us, but then I just carried on living my life.

I wonder what is going through Ashley's mind for the coming seasons that he will be here. Probably best not knowing actually. Would love to know the thinking behind the Kinnear appointment. It surely can't be just "he's the best man for the job" can it? Urgh.

I'd stretch to £40k max for a player who sat out a good portion of last season and who has been training with the youth set up all pre season. I'd offer incentives for goals reached but £60k is way out. Think Fulham would be making a mistake but then he could link up quite well with Berbatov.

Any number of things could have happened, training ground fight/harsh words said in anger, absolutely anything. Not everything is reported.

Always rated Lampard higher than Gerrard. Gerrard should have been dropped for England instead of trying to shoe horn the pair of them for so many games when it clearly wasn't working.

Can only call it as I see it but with Kinnear in as DoF, a half arsed attempt to sign Bent, a loan offer for a striker facing trial for rape, faffing about to sign Gomis and a few bodies out the door make this an awful transfer window so far. Seeing teams we should have no worries about finishing above strengthen significantly is a huge worry. I worry about playing Norwich next season ffs. One month to strengthen, a pre season wasted in terms of bedding in new faces, and still the prospect of one or two more being sold if the right price is met. With each day that goes by, the more the first few games of the season become a write off. We desperately need a good start.

£2m is an insulting offer if true. Wonder how much Fulham have bid. He's limited but he's easy worth around £6m.

I like the look if Caulker. Seems a confident defender, comfortable on the ball and knows the basics inside out. Good potential too. If Coloccini was off I would have wanted us to be in for him, but it's a high price for a centre half when we have M'Biwa, Colo and Taylor competing for 2 places.

Remember seeing Dyer's post match interview from the day Bobby died. He barely held it together. It was a very tough interview to watch. I don't think Bobby would hold any ill feeling towards him, so I don't think anybody else should.

I think Dyer has shown significant remorse over the incident to be absolved.

Marseille lost interest in signing him?

It is perhaps poignant that news of Kieron Dyer's retirement has come out today. RIP Bobby. Legend. Gentleman.

Bale will be the most expensive thing to come out of Wales since Giggsy's various CSA payments.

Fingers crossed it's Shola's leaving do.

I'd be happy to take him on a loan, simple termination if he is found guilty. Don't think there will be many, if any, clubs willing to take him on a permanent deal with the court date hanging over his head.

I wonder if anything was ever said to Sammy Ameobi after his comments when Kinnear was first appointed DoF, about at least getting his name right.

So young, what a shame. Did look good in that one Premiership season he had. RIP.

Don't understand why you'd ridicule a team celebrating qualifying for the Champions League after a 38 game season + cup games. Shock horror that they'd let their hair down and pop some champagne. Finishing in the top four is still a massive achievement. Arsenal are a step-up for Suarez.

I have seen some absolutely horrendous tattoos. A couple of summers ago, a guy came in topless with an American History X Ed Norton swastika tattoo, same place and size. Fucking knacker. Tattoos, in my eyes, are a personal thing. I've got my son's name on my inside arm as a reminder that he's always with me and that I've given an arm for him, symbolically. When I see tribals I just think what a waste. I never say anything though, in case they are part of a tribe and fuck me up.
