Optimistic Nut Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Surprised people are so happy with her transfer work. Are we any closer top being the best of the rest? Nope. If your man Pardew hadn't fucked up Mbiwa & Santon (before we even consider Ben Arfa), then the squad would be as strong as I've seen since 2004.

Darth Crooks Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I hope Rob Elliott offs off. Odious man, and s**** keeper. I can only presume he has the negatives of Woodman. Would be surprised if any Championship sides wanted the salad dodger. http://i60.tinypic.com/2yoer1x.png Why does he call himself The Dilsh? Think it derives from the fact he's a prize cunt.

Yorkie Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Rob Elliot's a funny one, really. Not that offensive, just a reputation that is utterly irreparable. Shit player, should never have got a game for us, loves Pards, hates Keegan. Like I say - he'll be completely forgotten in the long run but there's literally not a redeeming feature.

Closer than when?, the end of last season?, yeah we are. Last season the squad was relegation struggle material. If not for Cisse finding some form and the miraculous winning streak from Sept - Nov we would've gotten relegated. I don't think we've returned to the squad depth of the last 6 months of the 16th season. Also neither have we regained that status with the rest of the league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I always saw Rob Elliot as the illegitimate child of Woodman which is why I hate him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

January 2013 - January 2014 was the best Newcastle side on paper I've seen for a very long time like. If only we'd had a good manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Solid 6 out 10 this transfer window for me. Some good additions, but we all said we needed 6 first team players before the window opened, and I still stand by that, so we got 66% of the needed amount. We also needed to ship some of the deadwood and replace them with better squad players, which we completely failed to do, which is why I'm rounding the 66% down to 6/10.

Think that says more about the quality of our deadwood! Not surprised they are still here TBH, especially as anyone mad enough to consider them will get them some fo them for nothing next summer.

We've basically spent this summer replacing the hot property we bought, that Pardew then ruined and drove out of the club, with more hot property I fucking hate him beyond what is normal tbh.

Interpolic Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Nice summary on TF Faceys, I know what he means as that line pissed me off when I read it as well: I've found myself feeling pretty content being a NUFC fan so far this season, it's been very different to the last 8 years. I didn't want McClaren to be the head coach but I quite like him, he comes across well and seems to genuinely appreciate the fans which has been missing for a long time. I got Charnleys email yesterday like many others did and there was one line that pissed me off to be honest, this one - 'The decisions we’ve made over the past few years have given us the financial strength to net spend significantly this summer' That's bullshit and wound me up, it reminded me why I sat in SJP for 50 minutes after the final home game last season, why I joined marches, boycotted and held up red cards. I looked at a few other clubs net transfer spend since 2007, when Ashley arrived, to the present day, compared to our own. Here's a few examples. (I stuck Steve's ex employers in) Swansea £24m Derby County £25m Newcastle £27m Crystal Palace £45m Leicester £48m Stoke £60m Arsenal £100m West ham £115m We haven't spent this season because of our genius previous decisions, it's because we didn't spend at all. This summer is a good start but it's just what we've been owed. The next 2 windows will show the real 'new ambition' the club has. We need to keep the core squad together and add to it, no more rebuilding jobs year after year. It's been a good start NUFC but I personally need to see more positives to really help shake off the past mistakes that still linger in my mind.
