Ah right, I see, so you suspect that some unknown mega-rich club has deliberately not activated his £7m release clause so that they can swoop in after it expires and pay double the money to secure his services?? sneaky bastards eh?? Demba Ba would at least be in that £15-20m bracket when his clause expires, why dont we sell him and buy him back to appease your lunacy?? or we could to wolves and get Fletcher if you prefer?? "No Brainer"

I'm pretty sure it was open on Sunday for Olympic games. Seem to recall seeing people coming out of shop. If I'm wrong don't hunt me down via my IP and torture me though eh?

So... lets get this straight.... you would sell Demba Ba, for £7m, to raise funds for another transfer? Who exactly would you buy with that gargantuan sum of money then?

you're a no-brainer if that comment is your genuine opinion!!

The fat bloke in blue at about 50seconds in has the skinniest arms i've ever seen attached to a fat fecker

dont eat too much, there may be others wanting a slice!

Haha, I'd say a painted egg

Only if it's consistently done, and they don't withhold funds from the manager, we've got the 14th biggest revenue you know!!

And you can count on ME, waiting for you in the parking lot!

It's been a classy six hours though!

Some of the craic on here about Elliot is disappointing, give the kid a chance. Well thought of at Charlton, Pardew and Woodman have both had PLENTY of time working with him both here and at Charlton, so how about a touch of support for the kid eh? Couple of cracking saves in this match, (not suggesting it proves anything, but worth a look)

How can a doom/gloom prediction of the future even be considered to be factual in the here and now?? Now that I've said that, come here and give me a cuddle you!

Van Persie being a petulant baby again I see. WTF did he think the wigan defender did wrong there then??

5 mins??? Where'd that come from??? Just started watching a few minutes ago so genuine question!

I honestly dont know which one of your handbags i prefer!

And he's set to pocket more when he sells our tea lady and her urn!!! Ive been telling you this for years in post nr 373.... CHUM!

You weren't responding to any of my posts, so I felt i needed to reel you in.... That being said, I felt we had a rare moment of connection there, almost as if we'd put aside our past nastiness and for a fleeting moment were seeing each other as humans for the first time..... a bit like the WW1 Xmas football match...... "NOW GET BACK IN YOUR TRENCH YOU BLEND!"

I can apprecaiate you have seen the Mckeag's, Seymours etc, perhaps the disappointment of these experiences is stopping you from investing too much hope towards the current situation. However, I DO wonder if perhaps these combined experiences have pushed you TOO far to the other end of the scale? (not having a go there, i honestly wonder.) If this IS the case, I hope that you are at least able to swing it back towards centre some of the way, as i fear you may miss out on a good adventure/experience by not being able to do so. Once bitten twice shy I understand, Three times bitten pushes it further (to six times shy if we follow the formula ) I mean you no disrespect when i say this, but i wonder if you are perhaps like a heartbroken ugly girl who refuses to let anyone into her life???

It basically amounts to what they've got already, the formats are almost identical anyway with hundreds of games. They'll just be filtering some CL money to EL teams and combining them to one winner. I'm assuming you quoted the wrong post HF??

what I say is true. You're a liar. You backed the spending of Souness and encouraged more right to the end, and disagreed with me when I said he should be sacked for selling good players and wasting lots of money, both on here and on Newcastle Online, and you know it. You could start by admitting that what I have said, which you have rubbished for years [summarised AGAIN earlier this morning] is happening and is about to become even more obvious. I'm happy to start again with you, but it takes 2 to tango, although if you can't even admit that what I have been saying this morning for the umpteenth time is actually happening, it doesn't bode well. You say I come on here on monday and make a series of posts, but you don't mention juvenile remarks you make on here when you see me log in ? Leazes you absolutely ARE a liar, as well as a massive hypocrite. You have, on numerous occasions, tried to attribute complete fallacy to me, just so you can then argue against it. Don't worry though, I dont feel singled out, as you pretty much do it to anyone on here who holds a different stance to you on ANY topic, and you top it all off by trying to pidgeon-hole everyone of the aforementioned as "Ashley lovers," mainly so you can preserve your own personal siege mentality, which no doubt is essential in keeping you aloft in your baloon of self delusion. You focus on single points made by other forum members in the distant past, and you use them like a stick with which to beat them around the head and try and belittle them. However they invariably are proved to be unrecognisably skewed and twisted versions of what was actually said, or in other cases just absolute made up bullshit. The thing is, even if (for example,) Gemmill did say "Back Souness with unlimited funds," he possesses something of which you have never shown a glimpse of, and that is the ability to take on board further information and use this to re-assess/update his stance. You however show no flexibility, or evolution of your viewpoint, and as such must be recognised as the most stuck in the mud/entrenched poster on here. Perhaps there was a time when you were HONESTLY able to feel you held a "highground" in outlooks (perhaps the relegation season for example,) but I cannot for one moment entertain the idea that you are STILL unwavering in your outlook (despite a change in fortunes/direction/results,) without concluding that you may well have at least a mild form of mental health issues. You see it ISN'T normal/healthy for anyone not to reassess their stance every now & then. To try and put it into context, I loved betting on the Grand National for many years, however I decided last year to stop betting on it, as I fundamentally disagree with how many horses are injured/killed in this particular race. This does not mean that my earlier view was "wrong", nor does it mean I am a hypocrite, .... it means my viewpoint has evolved. To bring this back to NUFC, when Ashley first took over I was extremely positive, and hoped this would be good for the club. As the club blundered it's way through the first few years, dropping many clangers on the way to eventual relegation, I gradually changed my personal opinion on it all. Following what has gone on since then I have again reconsidered my stance as each twist and turn has become apparent. THIS IS NORMAL, DONT BE AFRAID LEAZES! Given all that has gone on since Ashley took over, I have no qualms in admitting that my stance is an optimistic one, and that i believe things are on the up. Perhaps time WILL prove me wrong, but living in the present (as most sane people do,) that is how my brain has processed the variables. In one way I feel there are comparisons to be made with the stadium renaming issue (although some may think this a little "off on a tangent",) Yes the stadium has been called St James' Park for a long time, and Yes there is a lot of history attached to it, however I fail to get too worked up about the prospect of changing the name for extra income. I think someone mentioned here that nobody has renamed their stadium, instead they have built new stadiums and "rented out" the naming rights, and so the general consensus is that that is alright as that isn't "trashing tradition". Personally, I feel that moving stadiums must SURELY be MORE of a break with tradition?? I mean would it be alright to call it Sports Direct Arena if Ashley built us a spanking new 120,000 all seater stadium?? I'd say yes it would..... BUT that would mean moving the football away from the very place it has been for as long as we could ever remember. Arsenal have built "The Emirates", and have/will be able to generate extra income by selling the naming rights, so as well as the stadium not being CALLED Highbury, the stadium isnt even where Highbury was.... Is this really more acceptable?? If so I fail to see how. As long as we DO generate extra income by selling naming rights, then I have no problem with this as it must surely help us compete with other clubs that generate income this way. If Fifa's FFP does actually affect the way clubs are run then I would say it becomes more essential to explore avenues like this. Obviously that is if we DO generate extra income.... I certainly wouldnt give it away for free!! Again, my viewpoint on this has evolved since it was first announced, and since the letters were crowbarred off the wall..... however, again, I do not think this makes me a hypocrite..... just normal. wow, sorry to all for long post.

Why dont you drink your own medicine cocknose!

Who/What is suggesting to you that we will??? Other than the doom mongering titheads of course??

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, what a fuckin clueless tool LM is

I am happy that no money has been siphoned out of the club via "warehouse scams", aren't you?

Ballotelli wasnt playing!
