Pity it wasn't a real sword. He's a corrupt fucking twat who hated England.

Gerd Mueller for one. Bobby Moore for another. I think you'll find that pace isn't everything but agreed, you can't be a snail either.

Martin Samuel - So, what's left to make the Toon swoon?
sniffer replied to Mr Gittes's topic in Newcastle Forum
It appears to me that the main reason the likes of samuel get this response to articles is because he raises a lot of points that are true, but don't want to be recognised as such by the fans. He's wrong on the Nolan situation but right on other points. -
Good. All credit to him recognizing the need to move on. He's the worst player I have ever seen play for Newcastle.
-
Aye, off into the England job.
-
Considering very few have any idea about the new players I'd say apprehension rather than excitement is my feeling. Without Barton the midfield looks a bit lightweight. Considering Tiote will miss a load of games through suspension and the african cup, and the new blokes are french, I'd say we'll get outfought by the likes of Stoke.
-
Its neither exploitation or racism. Just sad that anybody would do a job like this in a bog when there are other opportunities out there. Although I'm surprised the likes of David Pleat aren't lining up for this job.
-
Carr is apparently the brains behind the scouting operation.
-
I doubt we'd have signed him if his groin was still fucked. I think the Chronicle claimed he passed the medical at both Liverpool and ourselves. Mind you I think they were just basing that on what he said..... It went through very quickly so you have to wonder how stringent the medical was. I don't believe he passed the medical at Liverpool or why would he be here?
-
A back up for a player who has only played a handful of games and has it all to prove? OK.
-
Only time will tell, but a 5 year deal for a player who has chronic groin problems and fails a medical at Liverpool seems a bit strange to me. Let's hope we aren't tied down to more deadwood. Gosling may be first to find out the details of his contract.
-
If across the pond is right in thinking Liverpool are in for a tough time next season, we might as well toss in the towel now. Unless tough refers to them breaking into the top four, which is a pipe dream for us.
-
Or Pardew just watched him and concluded he isn't good enough. Seems reasonable. So, he must not watch ameobi, then.
-
Let's hope all of the foreigners that pardew is after are prepared to roll their sleeves up like Nolan when we are hanging around the bottom half. Nothing like wrecking the team spirit that we've been hearing about for the last couple of seasons.
-
I saw that he supposedly turned down an offer of 54K a week at west ham. I'd assume we'd at least have to match that basic wage.
-
Perhaps Nolan asked for a contract that he knew he wouldn't get because he's had enough of the FCB and his sidekick. Simple as that and not difficult to understand. Same for Barton and Enrique.
-
Perhaps pardew will be in for some of the cut price shite that they want to offload.

I realise you are trying to be more sensible than the fuckwits/others [or some of them] but where do you find another Arsene Wenger ? And to say Arsenal haven't backed their manager when he thinks he's seen a quality player is also a myth too. Do you think NUFC should be competing with clubs such as Bolton and Blackburn, selling our best players to clubs like Spurs and Liverpool and replacing them with inferior players who in turn will not stay at the club long term even if they are the one player in 6 or 7 from this "bargain" basement who comes good ? Yes or no. On the first part, kinda backs up what I said somewhere else. It's not the amount spent but the manager who identifies a player and then the club back the manager and buy him. Arsenal have backed AW, hence spending £15M on Arshavin. Point is though, they have spent very wisely and off-loaded players as needed. My point here really referred back to your "penny pinching" point. If we are going for £5M players, Arsenal have brought in some fantastic players for that value and under. Finding another AW though? I agree its damn hard. But like I say, my point is that it is possible to build a solid team without always spending silly money. But, Id like to think (well ok, I hope) that when we finally get a team worthy of a top 7 finish, we may need to add one £15M player a season, backed up by one or two £5M players. To your second point, No. But I'll add to it rather than just meeting your yes or no requirement Selling our best players to Spurs and Liverpool. Which transfers did you have in mind? Carroll? Id have sold him for £35M, that was stupid money for an unproven kid. If they didnt have the Torres money no way would he have been valued at that. We had to take it. Who else though? I can't honestly think of another of our top players we have sold. In the same circumstance, I think Spurs and Liverpool would have sold as well. As for replacing with inferior players, again I can only look at Carroll as that is all we have sold? That is a question I can only answer at the end of this window (fucking stupid idea selling him when we did, we should have tried to hold on till this summer so we could replace. As it happens, it didnt harm us in the end as we stayed up. big risk though). I honestly dont think we are competing with Bolton and Blackburn and I think we'll finish above both next season? This said, I dont think we are competing with Spurs or Liverpool either. But we should be building towards that. Should be. Let's see. Alan Kennedy, Terry MacDermott, Peter Beardsley, Chris Waddle, Paul Gascoigne, David Ginola, Sebastian Bassong. Hmm.

Is Shola one of the best penalty takers in the world?
sniffer replied to loonyTOON's topic in Newcastle Forum
Let's hope he's taken his last penalty for us. -
Meanwhile, as we find new ways of weakening the team, manure spend more on a keeper than we'll probably spend over the summer. Now thats a proper club.
-
Fucking depressing news If he's not getting a new contract then it doesn't make sense that the FCB will let him walk for free next year. He's gone. Just when you think it impossible that the cockney twats can get any further out of touch with the fans, they sink to new levels and again show they couldn't give a rat's arse. The thing they understand is that people keep turning up at SJP no matter how many times they get kicked in the balls. The twats are laughing at us thick geordie bastards all the way to the bank.
-
Why would you call a press conference for a no name player like bothroyd? Bit embarrassing if you ask me. I need to lower my expectations in keeping with the barrer boys we have running the club.
-
Rather have him than Carlton fucking Cole. But I'd rather have Daniel Sturridge than either of them.
-
Sounds just as much like you are pushing a racist agenda, LL.
-
While I'd like Enrique to stay, I won't get my knickers in a twist if he goes. I've seen a lot better players than him leave away over the years.
