NUFC

Pretty much the same as Ben Arfa then

Anita has turned into Tiote with his crap shooting

awful by Cabella

hopefully Vlaar is knackered

Surely that's more down to the lack of talent in the academy, can't think of any that have "made it" at Newcastle, most will end up being sold/released because they are not good enough, this is a common problem at NUFC, our academy has been poor for the last decade. Aarons is this years Adam Armstrong who was Adam Campbell the season before that, players that get a bit of hype, look ok in pre season but turn out to really not be as good as people think and drops off the radar. Can't think of anyone who I'm confident will become a regular at Newcastle from the development squad. The problem we have with Sammy Ameobi, Mehdi Abeid, Gael Bigirimana, Paul Dummett, Shane Ferguson & Haris Vuckic are that they are over 21 (i.e born after 1.1.93) so we have to register them in the 25 man squad to be able to play them in the Premier League, where previous seasons we didn't need too. Considering we already have 23 players we have to register to play in the Premier League (6 of those are home grown from a possible 8) we can only register 2 from the above list of 6 and we can't actually add any foreign based players unless we sell another foreign based player first. From the weekend game, Dummett started & Abeid was on the bench so looks like them two will fill the final spaces. TLDR version - we are going to have to sell/loan Ameobi, Bigirimana, Ferguson & Vuckic or let them rot in the development squad all season with the odd cup game in the first team

That extra weight Hatem put on finally makes sense....

Hopefully Aarons isn't a frequent gambler though

Aarons with a cross/goal

Yanga-Mbiwa just watching and making no effort to block that shot

and its 3-0

2-0 Malaga

Coloccini marking thin air ffs Get him on the next flight to Argentina.

Course you are, Taylor's a f***ing starter for us Beyond s****. Colo is past it and doesn't want to be here S.Taylor isn't good enough Williamson has the turning circle of the titanic Yanga-Mbiwa likes to rugby tackle opponents Santon is questionable defensively Janmaat is unknown in the Premier League

what a finish 1-0 Malaga Nowt Elliott could do about that

Guingamp scared of him getting picking up an injury.

So the Gus Bus had its MOT till 2016, I expect it to break down before then and end up in the scrap heap.

Pardew's excuse when we can't play him till October Well he's ginger and it was quite sunny today, we were scared he would get sun burn so were gonna wait till its a bit more cloudy as Mike wouldn't buy some factor 50.

that was the best chance

2 mins to force extra time

Surely they should have waited till the restart to put the board up, going to be at least 9 minutes now surely

7 mins added time :D

Cambridge will park the bus with 10 men now, hopefully Gateshead can throw everything at them

game on!

ah well Gateshead aren't going up then
