I think Willo is a good organiser and his positional sense is very good too. He is just a bit slow and his very uncomfortable on the ball. When Lambert was Norwich manager he just told Grant Holt to stand next to Colo when we gained possession. The ball just went to Willo each time and he had to bring the ball out. The crowd were on his back by about 25 minutes. Really simple, yet effective tactics. It didnt stop us winning the game though! Ha.

I've sort of fallen in love with Russell Brand.

I still think he is a bellend. -
Willo and Colo just seems to work. They dont really have any pace between them so i'd expect Yanga (who I think will come good) to take over at some point.

Gravity. Amazing spectacle. I found the script very basic and I lost a little interest around the 3/4 stage. 7.5/10 -
Newcastle ban all press (unless they pay).
Holden McGroin replied to Christmas Tree 's topic in Newcastle Forum
Modern day footballers are trained robots in interviews. I wouldn't pay for exclusivity. In fact I can imagine no papers will take them up on the offer unless the fee is buttons. In which case, what is the point? -

Such an odd thing to do. The papers will obviously make a point of being negative about NUFC in the future now (even more!) -
He went off injured but havent seen anything about the extent.
-
I wouldn't have any of their midfielders (maybe Valencia) over ours from their squad on Sat.
-
Well he did struggle to adapt at first. He didnt look good at all. He was superb on Sat. Really looked like the player we had expected. He is a red card waiting to happen though.

I cant see them losing two in a row at home. They arent that bad of a team - even with Rooney and RvP (is he definitely missing?) out.

The Secret Diary of Lee Ryder (aged 44 and a half)
Holden McGroin replied to Craig's topic in Newcastle Forum
How do you know for fact? Has he signed up with his chronicle email address? -
We've seemingly accepted his crapness and embraced him as a cult hero now. I think he is an excellent championship striker but not quite good enough to be consistent in the PL. He has done well to make a career at the top level. Fair play to him as well. He seems like a top lad.
-
Yeah, he is 32ish now. Unlikely he'll get an extension on his contract - and if he does it will only be a year.
-
You cant argue with four wins out of four.

2 MOMs in a row. He needs drug tested.
-
I think he is good as well. He just seemed to pick shit rom-coms for decades. I loved his bad-ass role in Reign of Fire.
-
Aye. I've done it before. Mildly interesting experience depending what case you get.

Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United
Holden McGroin replied to Christmas Tree 's topic in Newcastle Forum
I'm not sure how some people are saying we deserved to win. It could have easily been about 7-2 if it wasn't for Krul playing a blinder. We barely got out of our half in the second period and resorted to just hoofing it aimlessly clear. I'm delighted we won but games like that will be once in a blue moon. -
Gouffran did and excellent defensive job today. He is just a younger model of Jonas. Average yet very handy to have in the squad.
-
Incredible saving clearance. It didnt get the attention from the commentators it deserved.

Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United
Holden McGroin replied to Christmas Tree 's topic in Newcastle Forum
West Brom are good team btw. Hugely underrated. We'll have to play really well to beat them. -
You cant really argue with dropping him when we've just beaten Chelsea at home and Spurs away without conceding a goal. He'll no doubt play a part in the next couple of games. This formation has seemed to work against teams that will press us but the next two wont.

Series 1 was excellent.

Watched a couple of "Sunday afternoon" movies recently. Identity Thief - Didn't finish it. The Internship - Didn't finish it.
