Excellent today like

Leaving now, nervous but haway

Get the impression Graham Carr is a huge problem in all of this. Rafa doesn't get to speak to Ashley yet Carr sits next to him at matches, no doubt Carr has been in his ear over transfer policy. Apparently Carr was bemused at the signing of Murphy, cheeky t***.

I didn't think there was any need to worry YET, maybe I was deluded/burying my head in the sand because there clearly now is. If you read Mark Douglas's tweets he pretty much confirms Ashley is dictating what players we will sign and a 'certain someone is in his ear', obviously Graham Carr. Such a f****** shambles and a s*** storm is about to engulf the club once again, I'll be done with it all as thousands will. They can get f***** tbh.

Can't wait till we are winning matches so we can all start fretting again in the summer

I don't think there is anything to worry about, for now. Understandable paranoia though, we are like battered wives just waiting for the next slap. Always that niggle we aren't allowed to have nice things.

They're on 16 points, surely they would be usually cut much further adrift going into February

Down I reckon. Will get plucky results like this but won't have the firepower to get them out, Defoe can't do everything

Thread title

Zola appointment working out really well

Haway Spurs ffs

Looking out for Reading's scores is depressing

Watford 1-0 at Arsenal, WBA 1-0 up at Boro

Wouldn't be at all surprised if they win tonight. They always seem to up their game against the better teams. Spurs team looks excellent

Players who are with their club at their game and in the squad 4 hours before the deadline aren't going anywhere like. Was never going to happen this.

I'd be stunned if this is happens, it won't. NUFC being asked to outlay financially on deadline day more than they are happy to do. Absolutely no chance. Edit: reports that he's in the Palace squad tonight

Chungy is going out on loan

Hopefully we are just finalising bits like clauses in his contract in case we fail to go up, payment structure etc and everything will be okay tomorrow Don't think I can be arsed with the Total and utter meltdown there will be.

If anyone saw our game at Southampton near the end of last season will know. The bloke was a f****** disgrace

It's Graeme Bailey, the reports on this change every day or so. See how it plays out

These are literally a retirement home for washed up old/injury prone players. Everton get a smart £7.5 million take their dross, if these don't go down they are the ultimate unflushable turd

Least there appears to be the appetite from both parties to get a deal done.

Mackems are kidding themselves over this, yes it's a great fee but he was a major attacking outlet for them. Their squad is weaker for this. We all know the feeling of having s*** on the pitch but receiving healthy money for our players.

His last few appearances for us were genuinely the worst performances I've seen from a centre back

This - highly likely now, esp as P45Due is now available.... "Highly likely" You won't be LOL if Benitez walks at the end of the season.....you'll learn... Get yourself down to the bookies and enquire what price they'll give you on Rafa being manager at the start of next season and what price they'll give you on Pardew being manager. Then come back and tell us so we can discuss which one is "highly likely"..... ..and what odds would the bookies have given for JokeKinnear getting the manager's job for a second time..?? If you think the bookies can predict what Ashley would do in any situation, you are a lot more trusting of them than I am...these are the people who predicted that the UK would not vote for Brexit or the US elect Trump.. Incidentally, I am interested in what odds the bookies would give you on Rafa NOT being manager next season without including Pardew as his replacement..have you checked that one out yet..!?? http://i.imgur.com/0mw1I8e.gif
