  1. The former I think. It could get dicey if one entity owns several teams that play each other. I'm thinking along the lines of "team orders" in formula one.
  2. This season is very likely to come down to NUFC V Durham Cestria. Hopefully there is a bumper crowd for this game.
  3. Give some folks a pre cup final rest. Targett in (if fit) & Gordon in.
  4. If this streak of draws is our dip in form and we still lie 4th with Spurs being Spursy behind I'm feeling pretty confident.
  5. Not one of the septic 6 was going to loan us a player either, so it would have had to be someone from abroad. The only player that I thought may have been on was Maddison. Not sure the if's and why's of that one. Sounds like he has numerous suitors.
  6. So in 130 years this is now the joint longest unbeaten streak and the longest in the top flight. In Eddies first full season with us???How about that??!
  7. Does anyone know if we ever went this many games undefeated? Which manager holds the record or did Eddie already break it?
  8. I saw that. No! Anyone that suggests Schar play in midfield is seriously deluded.
  9. But the debate takes less than 2 lines. We need extra depth in the MF and we didn't address it. Now let's get it together and make the rest of the season as positive as possible. Or we can bitch and moan for the next 3 months.
  10. The Shelvey gamble likely is because the 100k a week for his salary is needed for Maddison or equivalent. We could have been stuck with Shelvey if this automatic extension was triggered.
  11. The problem we have in strengthening the midfield is that to make a noticeable difference we will have to spend a lot, which we can't do. We could buy bodies but that would only add to the problem we already have. I think Eddie has said countless times he doesn't want to add talent that is not as good as he already has, and by that I assume he means the Bruno level.
  12. IMO they should scrap season tickets so the whole ground doesn't end up like the east stand. If you aren't entitled to be there, and you have to work at it a bit, the more likely you will be positive.
  13. Bunch of fannies IMO. Lest year we were pretty much rock bottom at this point.
  14. This board is fucking bi polar. I can't even.
  15. We are undefeated in 16 but the armchair experts are out in force.
  16. OverThere

    Garang Kuol

    He didn't start in Aus. Seemed to come on for the last 20 mins or so.
  17. What is the purpose of FFP? If its supposed to prevent clubs from going bust then why would that apply to a Man C or us who are so rich they are NOT going bust. Its obviously more of a pulling up a drawer bridge by the old guard. A team, no matter who they are, are caught in a catch 22 situation where they cant build revenue without attracting better players and cant attract better players without increasing revenue. In theory, you could build an academy and in decades create a pipeline to avoid FFP but even youngsters may not stay and move to the same "big six".
  18. Rigg is out of contract this summer and he is a Newcastle fan. He will come over to the light in the summer.
  19. In fairness they do have a decent young team but they would be destroyed over the course of a whole PL season. The best thing for them would be another 1-2 years in the Champo so the young uns can get more experience.
  20. Poor training in the use of the dust-bin.
