The problem is he plays in the postion that is most affected by age, wingers rely on pace and stamina and that's the first thing to drop off. That's why the likes of Giggs and Ronaldo became more central as they got older.

I see the reasoning of selling him for 40 to generate 120 in terms of FFP, but it's a horrific way to have to go on.

10-ish.

Maybe £15m from Saudi if we're lucky. He's 30 years old and on the decline.

We've got to keep him and sell Almiron and/or Murphy. We can't be that hard up surely.

How much are you worth, about £50m?

Trafford would just be another Freddie Woodman. Muric is better and would cost half as much.

I used to be an L back in the day, more of an XL now.

I not bothered about the design, it just looks cheap as fuck quality wise.

No idea, maybe he moved there from Wallsend?

I think £80m is realistic considering his age but obviously he's worth more than that to us long term. Hopefully if no one coughs up the alledged £100m release clause he'll be staying......

Yes there were a few radgies on there who didn't get it like.

Yes TT was one of the major posters on there, often acted as the peacemaker. I remember that, think it was when Chelsea were beating Sunderland 7-1 or something.

Aye he seemed canny, but he did love himself mind!

Colin Walton the Albanian looking piss stained tracky bottom wearing chess master from Peterlee. Dion J Pilkington the Canadian Newcastle fan who posted shite and was hunted down on the internet and ripped to shreds. Young t0m who basically grew up on Skunkers. Elswick Mag who loved himself so much he'd have shagged himself if his dick was big enough. The formentioned mackem John Ramsey who posted greyhound racing tips that often came in. Vinny V the young fat lad who would wind up Walter the mackem with reagrds to meet ups for a fight. Broonee the old bloke with the paedo haircut. Christ the list of characters on there was endless.

Are you the same Wallsend Mag as the one on Skunkers? The one with the house in Parklands with a Jag and Tigra on your drive?

Mine was changed to Nooneatmyfuneral by the main mod, think his name was Windaz, he set it up and ran it until a couple of years before it died. God I miss the racism, paedo allegations, general abuse and fuckwittery of it all. Remember wtdog the mackem? He was always good for a bit of abuse back and forth. Oh and BooBoy the speccy twat, think he posts on here now and again.........

I don't think peak Skunkers will ever be beaten. Good mix of mags and mackems, plenty of piss taking on a diverse range of subjects, think there were a few drinks meet ups as well but I never got to any of them. Must have died about five years ago now. Gone but never forgotten.

Any former members of Skunkers on here?

It's pretty self explanitory really.

Why would I slag him off? I said before when we seemed favourites to sign him that he'd be going to whoever offered him the best deal.

For all the ones slagging him off, lets look at this logically without wearing NUFC rose tinted glasses. He has a choice of working for Asda for £10 an hour or Tesco for £15 an hour. Tesco is a couple of miles away whilst Asda is 250 miles from where he lives. He has no love for either company, however the benefits of working at Tesco are also better. Which one would you choose?

Quelle surprise. He's not a CL standard player anyway.

You sound like his agent pitching him to a potential buyer.
