Christ Fish, some of your posts have gone WAY WAY over the line..

That's my gripe, I don't think he can control the aggression. I'm also probably in a minority, but I'd rather Anita gets a "first choice" run for at least 20 games as I want to see him recreate his form prior to coming to nufc.

Yup pointless having friendlies in the US. Nearly as pointless as having Tiote in the squad.

I reckon / hope he'll play: ----------Cisse-----, Perez, -----------Cabella, -----Gino, Colback or Sissoko------ ----- Anita OR Colback ----- I've never rated Tiote tbh.

It's an absolute disgrace that the tories have won a majority. I've not seen much mention of the fact that these "12bn savings " are not financing any imaginary deficit reduction / repayment, as he's also slashed corporation tax and the bank levies , to the tune of approx. 2.8bn per year for the next 5 years... (stats from my mate, but I believe him) Redistribution of wealth at its very worst. The big shocker I've heard of, is that the working tax credit change doesn't stop there, there's an IT Team outsourced and commissioned right now to REMOVE the functionality from the systems.. This will ensure that it can't easily be re-instated without substantial cost and another IT project. That says it all to me, it's slash and burn on the welfare state . Anyone who didn't vote should be ashamed. It's about time we did what Oz does and force everyone to vote, even if its just no confidence. I believe that the tories won't privatise as such, they'll set each area to fail, e.g the NHS and then say they are "increasing exposure to the private sector" and wait for the whole public side to fall over. <off soapbox>

I'm going to try the same trick twice. It's depressing that we're buying no one, the best we can get this year will be Adam Johnstone or Teddy Sheringham. We're getting relegated lads and buying no one. <sits and waits>

He'll also do well sat behind a striker in a Beardsley type role. Many people think he'd be just as effective as a CF

And that's how long it took. If it all goes to shit at least I got sumthing out of it.

I should fire off a rant more often. A wank, I think

Lol you bastards, stop updating this thread if there's nowt going on. I'll repeat myself, I reckon we're fucked. We're getting no-one, or a chance "low value" player at best. What a waste of Carr's scouting ability, he's given some good targets in the past and we always ignore em, put a stupid bid in, or just buy the cheapest "less good" player on his list. What a fucking joke, I hope no fucker goes to the matches next year and Ashley's little sky sports speech gets ridiculed.

Any player who goes on strike whilst being punted around like an item of furniture under Ashley, is ok by me. Sour grapes I think. Another season starts soon, and another one where I'll be amazed if we don't get relegated.

Ashley's hopefully shot himself in the foot now I hope, making a rare public appearance on Sky Sports speaking shite. Now the media sees him doing what he's done to us for years. I really hope they tear him a new one.

lol I meant only in Saskatchewan in Canada you numpties. But a bit scary they're over in BC now, the hospital was adamant in 2005 ish that they were only in southern sas. A cassowary might well be a bird, but its a five foot high fooker with razor sharp claws and head. I really should read all posts in a thread before replying

I'm happy with McLaren, as I've posted before , he's better than the best we could get under Ashley imo. A real surprise that he agreed. I wouldn't be surprised if he goes the same way as Keegan though, as he's got lots of friends in high places and is no doubt being shat on as we speak.

black widows are rare and only found in saskatchewan

Got a few, though cheating death might be a bit strong. 1. Drunk as a student, thought I'd stick my finger in a live light socket to see if it was turned on. That was nasty. 2. Got bitten by a black widow on the toe while out hiking in Canada , got a blister the size of my foot - on my foot, then once the red burning rash reached my knee I panicked and finally went to the hospital, was told I was lucky it was my toe, anywhere on the chest and I'd be in trouble. 3. Whilst hitch hiking from my campsite to the hospital from above, had a bear encounter, it was scary but not really that dangerous. 4. Whilst hiking with 2 ladies in Oz, we were ambushed and chased down by a cassowary , I remember going super calm thinking we were dead and did the bear drill with it, which half worked. Managed to inch away after it had done a few charges at us. 5. Oh, I was ran over twice in one day when I was a kid, off my bike, the custom sports car had once of those licence plates that hangs under the car, which they reckon saved me from going underneath.

I wish I was so certain, I was back in the day when we were promoted from the championship, but then he sacked Chris and its all been same old same old from there on in. There is no hope imo, or any credible evidence to suggest optimism isn't just blind. Only an insane person sees the same actions and expects different results. But that's what being an optimistic toon fan requires nowadays, borderline insanity. The thing I'm certain of, is that once Ashley dies or sells (probably not the latter) then things will get better and we might be a football club rather than a marketing business.

Milner is the consummate professional, he's managed his career so well. I'm always chuffed for him, as he's a fantastic footballer and has been for years and years. How he's avoided the "golden boy" / "Englands best hope" media bollocks is beyond me. He should coach youngsters on career management when he's finished as a player.

Too right DK. You'd think at 15 mil for Austin that already is good value! They are like the guy who tries to buy your car for 30% less than its advertised after turning up on the day saying he was bringing the asking price to buy it. Austin, if he has 2 good seasons, will easily go for more.

If we weren't undergoing strife that's already a media circus, I'd honestly take Balotelli. Liverpools play style might not suit him, but he'd do well as an ego maniac with a team built round him. I reckon he'd do well with le'hoof ball.

Can't quote on this forum for some reason, but: Nice one Monkey's

The fabled July 1st has came and went, we're ducked. Don't know why I was so stupid as to get my hopes up that we'd even sign a single shite player by now (

Fuckin hell

Fuck off it that needs evidence.. ffs

Got a signed bottletop shirt with Keegan, Harper, Didi Hamann , Laurent Robert, Shearer, Harper and others. Signed Blue Star asics top by Keegan (last weekend) signed photo of Keegans first newcastle goal against QPR, do I win?
