Taster loan I guess. Is he even likely to play for them, are they having an injury crisis?

Length of the loan? 1 month.

No ones arguing he can't play with and injection, it's stupid though, as we are going against medical advice. But that worked out fine for Aarons didn't it? Totally different with hamstring injuries. That's just plain dumb from Pardew. Some injuries you're okay to play through the pain with.

3-1 home win imo.

He'll be fine to play with an injection. One of those where it's just as much upto the player as it is the medical staff.

Listed as a calf/shin injury on Physioroom.

I understand it from a footballing perspective, but when you add in his illness I think the club could definitely have done the decent thing and let him recover and talk about his future when he came back.

Incredibly ill-advised comments from Whelan.

Holding a team to a draw until half time matters. You can tell it does, due to all the points you don't get.

Yeah, this.

Yeah, basically you have to be willing to work any day with the right amount of notice. Not a fan of zero hour contracts, I think for a lot of people they don't work, and the zero hour contract show a basic lack of respect for the individual. They can work for the minority but certainly not the majority.

Good news but still a while away. Should never have been on the bairns kits.

Pundits don't want to burn bridges with anyone they might have to work with in the future. You'll get the odd one but their view won't be as publicised and it'll be counter to a pro view. Guess a lot of outlets have seen what's happened to local media here being banned, and they want access to any scoops that might come up in future also. NUFC sign a big name striker in a few years, they'll want access to an exclusive newspaper interview for instance.

Depends. First wife may have a lovely personality.

Doesn't sound great.

Is HBA match fit now?

It's crazy money but when put into context of the fee Barca paid, it's probably about par for what they pay out. West Ham are crazy if they sign him permanently on that kind of wage. You can't complain about FFP stopping you signing players if you shell that amount out in wages.

Dunno, don't reckon i'll be that arsed. This. Barely recognise him as an ex Toon player, tbh.

With this and the talk of Madrid, we need to say let's just calm down, he's only scored a few goals at the top level.

What's the difference like? Zero, except centre half has been used longer.

The cross comes in and you think to either hit it first time and likely hit the side netting, or take a touch and go round the defender on the outside before working another cross or shot. The fucking balls of this kid to do what he did, class.

Surprised he started at centre half, thought for sure Williamson would have been back in. Don't rate him at left back but he's done well at centre half. Good honest pro, lacking a bit in quality but you can rely on him to give his all.

It's a decent move just to get game time. If he's good, he'll find his level after getting his name out there again. Feel like he's very much a forgotten man for other clubs.
