Dokko Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Looks like they are coming up, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they win the fuking thing now, quite an achievement considering their poor start. No doubt they'll be buzzing, and i can see Quinn trying to push the team forward even more and spend the money they get for being back in the big time, in fact, i can even see them staying up this time round. As for us, i can only see us going further backwards under the current lot, and the prospect of the return of our fierce rivals doesn't fill me with the the joy it should do.

johnnypd Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 they'll need to make a lot of transfers cos the players they have at the moment aren't good enough to survive in the premiership. and i don't mean spending a modest sum on over a dozen crap players, like they did last time. they would've been better off getting in 3 or 4 class acts rather than frittering away their budget.

Linked with Duff, Butt & Forlan, trying to call in old pals, no doubt they'll also get a couple of Manu fringe players on loan as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linked with Duff, Butt & Forlan, trying to call in old pals, no doubt they'll also get a couple of Manu fringe players on loan as well. if they pulled off transfers like that, i could maybe see them doing a Reading. they've got a mix of workers who aren't technically good enough for the premiership, and some technically good players who aren't physically good enough for top flight (leadbitter, connolly, edwards for instance) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

safc Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I reckon 4, and I reckon that'll be a win at St. James' and a draw at SoL as I don't think we'll beat at home for a while yet for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TinoInHiding Posted April 14, 2007 Share Posted April 14, 2007 6 points for us I'm sick of all this bollocks coming from the Mackems, who are in for a very rude awakening when they step up to the premiership standard of play. They are luckily winning their games by an odd goal each week, and as they have proven time & time again, winning in the Championship means fuck all. Can't wait to wipe the smiles off their faces next season.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Owen, Sidwell, plus new signings at the back (probably) There will be a big clearance sale in the summer with Luque, Emre, Bramble disappearing and hopefully Duff will clock off as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottledDog Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 Interview with Keane: http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_Story/0,,2057636,00.html "The best managers always hit the nail on the head. Obviously, Alex Ferguson. I would have looked to question him on certain games. 'I'd feel in my bones at United what the team might need on a certain day. And I'd have to say he was usually spot on. He came in and gave what was needed. Sometimes we'd need to be relaxed. Sometimes we'd need a bit of a gee-up. Usually, he came in spot-on. I'd be saying to myself, "This is what the team needs." I hope he comes in from that angle." Interesting little insight. I wonder how many, if any, of the players would say the same for Roeder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
