I do. The club's problem with "bad luck" in injuries predates the arrival. Though, the vast amount of muscle injuries is an indicator for something not being right in training and preparations for matches. 65195[/snapback] I don't. Our injury 'woes' are nothing new but in terms of casualties and ailments.

Mother's mate tell you that? 65178[/snapback] He's told me its a draw actually 65194[/snapback] So, should I put a few quid on it then?

Go nerdy! Go nerdy! 65151[/snapback] Ah bless, I've got my very own cult following! 65176[/snapback] So does Gemmill. Expect Alex to be round shortly... Oooh, white space. And some more. We could have a white Christmas at this rate. 65179[/snapback] Trying to make our site fall over? Dirty tactics - shame on you! 65186[/snapback] I thought his football posts were boring, but when he tries to be funny..... 65189[/snapback] Just want to be liked

I blame Souness.

Mother's mate tell you that? Seriously, I don't think we'll get hammered, Arsenal are a poor side and while better than we are, they are nowhere near their fluent best. I don't expect us to win like but I remember last season we were hit with injuries, played well and lost 1-0 despite many claiming we'd get hammered. Same again most probably. A scrappy game, a scrappy goal to win it.

Nah, we don't do bullshit rumours, otherwise we'd have nabbed your Shearer one.

It's on the mend I hear. You heard it here first.

There is highlighting his failings and then there is downright bullshit. And there is a lot of that in this thread concerning not only KK as a manager, but his time at United.

I'd agree, the role of the DOF in conjunction with the manager would have to be clearly defined so no-one can impeach on one another's job. But again, that would depend on the manager, really. In my view anyway. For example a KK-Shearer partnership would probably work as the two are not only great friends off the pitch, but they would, you'd imagine, share the same ambition and interests where NUFC is concerned. Whether that would materialise in success on the pitch, remains to be seen, but as a working relationship, it would be water-tight I'd like to think. BTW Our two most successful eras came with a Director Of Football running things.

And with that, he was gone 65006[/snapback] Shit stirrer

I'm not sure if the whole Director of Football thing (if that's what you are advocating) works really. The roles of him/the manager have to very clearly defined. Would a manager be happy with KK being at the club too? I think, giving the history he may well be perceived as a threat. 65129[/snapback] Depends who the manager is.

We'd be some club that's for sure. Like we were when he was a manager.

I'd have him back but not as a manager. Not ideally anyway.

This is great

Better than N-O? 65007[/snapback] Not now the toonchatters fucked off.

George Burley most likely.

Centre-half, left-back, left-wing or even defensive midfielder... if we are short of numbers. Basically he'd make a great squad player in my opinion. Far better a squad player than Milner will ever make who while I rate (potential wise), will never amount to anything special. Not enough to force his way in ahead of the likes of Emre and Parker anyway.

N.O = helping the lercal economy.

Dear me... If he didn't threaten to walk out so many times, we'd never have made it. Short memories...

Barry, straight swap for Milner? I'd take that.

I think every NUFC fan, well most, knew he was crap and that it would all end in tears. As fans, we had no choice but to support him. Fair play to those who stuck to their guns on both 'sides'. Though, those now calling for his head having previously supported him are right fickle bastards mind...
