Which was supposed to be getting knocked back by all accounts, as well as the LMA who were supposed to be against the idea? How would the stock exchange view the potential mish-mash of 'X' being manager, but in effect 'Y' being manager and calling the shots?? Is it just me who views this potential 'yeah, he's manager, but he's not actually manager but the other fella, in effect, is the manager - if you know what I mean...' to be a complete set of crap of Camberwick Green Amateur Athletic Football Club proportions ?????

Some kid on tyne-talk wondered if it had actually been put up!!!!!!!!!!

Ungrateful twat You could always turn it upside down and put it on the roof of your car when you want to get through traffic??

So it's true about you and Gemm being an 'item' ??

Saw that series - fantastic. It was because of Jack Johnson that the phrase 'great white hope' began iirc. Anyway, I don't want to spoil the thread so I will just state that I am still on The Fall of The Roman Empire.

Portly Freddie is gonna pull one out of the hat and surprise us when he announces..'Ladies and gentlemen, Newcastle United's new manager....' and in walks...... Martin O'Neill. I feel it in me bones.

*yawns* They don't like it up 'em! No, I didn't get the wrong thread. Houllier? Swap the Campions League for NUFC ??

Did this Mr Spong come to your assistance ? 130629[/snapback] No, the name comes from a radio advert for them.

There'd be no point in taking Dyer anyway, as we have Rooney now to come on for the odd ten minutes here and there!!!!!!!

I've heard that they don't like it up em.

You know what to do if you don't like it..... FUCK OFF 130471[/snapback] Adios, then

Talking about the Maradona 'wonder goal' at Mexico, I am convinced it is finally an own goal by the defender. Still, a pretty good goal; he did everything I tought him to do.

There's time yet. As long as O'Neil does go to them but it's a bit worrying to think the Mackems might eventually sort their act out, long live Bob Murray i say 130461[/snapback] The tabloid rumours were that Quim himself will be taking over as manager. 130468[/snapback] Don't think he has ze badges 130469[/snapback] Is it essential in the fizzy pop league??

.....and O'Neill for Fulham, McClaren for England, Mowbray for Boro and Christopher Biggins for the NUFC pantomime! 130460[/snapback] I think Biggins could do a job!!! He played the emperor Nero in I Claudius, so i think he'd work well with somebody like Fat Fred! 130467[/snapback] I'm sure he got his 'badges' anarl whilst at Blackpool Hippodrome!

That's what's wrong with this fuckin' cliquey forum I start an intelligent, well-thought out, informative thread and you lot just ruin it BIZARREFACTAMONGULITES

Didn't hear such platitudes for Zog following his goal at shitsville. If it had been Jur Cuurl that had scored it........??

Trevor Spong. SPONG ?????? *tootles off chuckling*

You're probably right Gemm. Just my twisted mind thinking of Portly Freddie knowing something was going to go wrong, increasing Dyer's value by the improved contract and cashing in if things did end in Dyer's release from his contract due to health/fitness. Maybe I should say that this is just my assumption and is probably so far from the truth to be laughable.

I'll renew regardless cos I'm a soopadoopafan. Even if it's Coleman. 130386[/snapback] Soopadoopadoopafan tbh You're on Portly Freddies Christmas card list, you are.

I'm sure there are discussions like that in the event that you're forced into a position where you're approaching your limit on your budget. Do you think someone had offered Dyer 70k a week like? I don't, but tbh, if they had we should have just got rid rather than tried to beat that wage offer. The Chairman is the one in charge of the purse strings at the end of the day, and if the Manager says to pay a player who rarely plays £80k a week, as much as I like that Shepherd backs his managers with cash, there has to be a time when Shepherd turns round and says "Are you MENTAL??!" 130383[/snapback] Slightly edited to make it more clear .... but its a double edged sword. The Chairman maybe isn't happy at 80k , but if he doesn't back his manager he's undermining him. Now plenty of people would slate him for that. On the other hand he's slated for giving him a contract ... !!! This is how the system works though, but whichever way you look at it, its the manager who was wrong for recommending that this player was worth handing an extended improved contract to, if HE hadn't done that, we have to run the risk of losing him for nothing, getting a reduced fee, saving on his pay packet....then what if the little shitebag all of a sudden goes through a season or two without being hurt ... and plays his knackers out ? I hate Dyer almost as much as Souness, but that scenario is possible. There's no easy decision. Mine would have been to recommend letting him go or trying to offload, and take our chances on his future fitness. As it happens now, he is seeing Richard Steadman in the summer, if he doesn't solve his problems, stand by for the insurance pay out IMO. 130385[/snapback] Hmmm, that's interesting. When Dyer was given an improved contract, was it in case of claiming some insurance in the future? By increasing his wages, were NUFC boxing clever in getting an improved insurance payout if all failed with Dyer's fitness?? I'm probably talking a load of bollix

Naturally. And then there are a few people who's juices dry up, somewhat, following drab draws with relegation-threatened teams like Brum. Notice how the uphoria over Roeder has diminished since Saturday. If we get thumped by Chewsee, imagine the thought process when the renewal forms get delivered if Roeder is 'the man'. Just my thoughts. I don't have a season ticket so cannot give an honest answer as to whether I would re-new, or not.

Not for me. I cannot stand woodentop Lineker. Yet another cheap programme by the BBC *spits* and yet another jolly for Lineker.
