toonpete1892 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 The pitch is currently being re-laid and we are getting new dugout's again. I can't believe SSN is running this as a story. Then again, I'm surprised noone has started staying 'Mikes even selling off the grass the tight git' or 'wait until its relayed and there is a big Sports Direct logo instead of the centre circle'. It really must be a slow news day! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really must be a slow news day! Sports Direct logo on the new curved dug outs. Play on the Pitch at the end of the season offsets cost of the new pitch being relaid. LCD sponsorship boards will run around the entire pitch now, not just the East Stand. 'Mike Ashley's Sports Direct Army' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Loven11 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Former Toon favourite Ruel Fox believes Alan Pardew's style of play is perfect for Newcastle United - and says fans should judge the manager next season after a solid start to his St. James' career. Pardew led The Magpies to a 12th place finish - although it would have been a top ten position had it not been for a late collapse against West Brom on the final day - but Fox is expecting an even better campaign next time around. The winger was with the club during 'The Entertainers' years of the 1990s, and spoke to nufc.co.uk this week about the season and his hopes for the summer. "It was a decent season," he said. "I was at the West Brom game and it sort of summed the season up - some very good stuff and some not so good stuff, but on the whole I think Newcastle will be happy with the season. The main aim for most clubs when they've been promoted is to stay up, and they did that with something to spare. "After the last couple of seasons, what they needed was just to get a steady ship. Everyone knows how they went down, then came straight back up again under Chrissy Hughton, and even though there was some disruption when the club decided he wasn't the man to take them forward, they still got some good results towards the end of the season. "But that season is now finished and it's down to work for the next one. I'm sure Alan Pardew knows which players he wants to get - and there will be some he's keen to keep as well. "He's probably sat with the chairman right now, discussing how much he has to spend, what he can do and what he can't. Last season was quite good and now they will try to move on from it." And although he was a big admirer of former manager Hughton, who he played under at Tottenham, Fox has also been impressed with the way Pardew has gone about his business since his arrival in December. Fox - now a personal trainer in his hometown of Ipswich - said: "His football philosophies have always been good. The players seem to enjoy what they're doing. "All I can go off is what I hear from a football perspective but he comes across as confident, which suits the way Newcastle play. You've got to have a confident, open style of play at Newcastle - that's what the fans demand. "Obviously they got that when Kevin Keegan was manager and they were so spoilt in that era that it was tough when Sam Allardyce came in, with a different style of play. "They want to see good football and Pardew likes to play that way. Next season is the time to judge him but he's made a good start." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No this a bit of myth & him liking on us on various FM games added to it. IIRC played for one of the really young age groups during the holidays unable to source this but I have read it somewhere. Sir Alex said: "We have had him here since he was an 11-year-old, but when he reached 15, everybody was after him," United boss Ferguson said. "He was in the Scottish Schoolboys team and we thought we had lost him because Liverpool and Newcastle came in for him. He had almost agreed to join Newcastle but I got him down to Manchester with his father and he signed for us." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lower division. Six-month loan. Mike Ashley had better not go near the ground any time soon. Oh dear Just saw a bot reading that thread so popped in for a look. Interestingly it looks like that bit of info referred to Kuqi who was announced 11 days later. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
