  1. So if all the really good managers we approached to replace Graeme Souness turned us down (as if we'd approach any anyway), who would you have as your backup choice for someone who would probably definitely take the job and is still better than Souness?

     

    I'd probably go for Paul Jewell. He's an ambitious manager (trying to land Parker, Owen), he can obviously motivate his team, can get them playing real football and fearing no-one. If he had our better players to pick from I'm sure he'd at least get us out of our predicament we're in right now, maybe more.

  2. They need like £2000 to upgrade the server which they don't have.

    Gyppos. :D

    They did mention that ToonAle have gone through some kind of problems, which I can't remember now, but yeah they're basically stuck on that crappy server for a while longer now.

  3. You don't know what you're doing

     

    Bolton 2 Newcastle 0

     

    A phrase normally reserved for referees but at the moment it applies to anyone who falls under the laughable banner of Newcastle United.

     

    The Chairman, the Manager, the Coaching Staff and the players are taking this club to new depths and dragging us all down with them.

     

    Never in the 113 year history of Newcastle United has a league campaign got off to a hat-trick of goalless games but after another pathetic performance at the Reebok Stadium this current shower has made unwanted history.

     

    A goal in each half for the Trotters ensured that after three games we join Wigan and the mackems in the Premiership relegation zone. The opening season drama is now turning into a crisis.

     

    And what can we expect in the next seven days? More transfer heartache as Owen et al fend us off with their bargepoles, a home defeat to Manchester United and then the ritual sacrifice of the Manager?

     

    That won't wash anymore, something really drastic needs to happen for this club to gain any credibility from its fans and the football community at large.

     

    A new Manager or the arrival of Michael Owen would only be like putting a sticking plaster over a festering sore. This club is rotten to the core - a whole barrel of bad apples, not just the odd one or two that have already been discarded.

     

    All we need now is for Freddy Shepherd to tell us (via Sky) that "it's never dull here".

     

    Don't you bloody dare....

     

    Full match report to follow.

  4. According to Talksport:

     

    Bolton fans were heard chanting "You're getting sacked in the morning, sacked in the morning...."

    Charlton fans chanted that last season in February.

  5. Remember when we were unhappy at finishing 5th and getting to the semi finals of the UEFA Cup? Bet all those who booed at the Wolves game now feel stupid.

    The team was visibly rotting before our eyes. Dont kid yourself that we were good. We bloody well WERE NOT. How the hell we got to 5th is a mystery. We didnt deserve it, thats for damn sure. It was only the other teams below were just as bad and less lucky.

    Compared to now, we were Barcelona!

  6. No, I think the Gullit legacy will be completed by whoever Shepherd appoints as the next manager. Whoever it is (and it won't be anyone good) will do what Gullit, Dalglish and Souness couldn't and that's relegate us.

  8. Lack of "door openers", whilst ignoring the fact that he loaned the last one we had to Valencia

     

    Lack of goalscorers, partly his fault as he fell out with Bellamy and dumped Kluivert

     

    Us not having enough players, ignoring the fact he sold so many

     

    We were unlucky, ignoring the fact we are shit.

  9. I have a feeling that the Man Utd match will be Souness's last in charge and Shepherd will get off scot free again because everyone will be too distracted by the happy feeling of dumping Souness.

  10. ----------------------Given----------------------

    --Carr----Boumsong----Taylor-----Babayaro

    -----------Parker---Faye--Jenas---------------

    ----Bowyer----------------------Ameobi-------

    ----------------------Shearer--------------------

     

    I guess that's our team.

  11. My only reservation is that he doesn't really seem to want to join us. We're like his last resort and I just feel there's no way he's coming permanently and if he's on loan he'll end up moving at the end of the season.

  12. Not really looking like it's going to go through. Anyone see Souness on SSN? He sounded very pessimistic about the whole thing. He said he won't settle for 3rd or 4th choice players though and that Luque is the type of quality he is after.
