Portsmouth doesn't have an airport.... Nearest station is Portsmouth Central which is about a 10-15 minute walk away - pain in the arse because the line goes straight past the ground and there is actually a station at Fratton but very few trains stop there (less regular than Renton's optimism! ) Mind you, a walk from Portsmouth Central will take you through Somers Town - you might want to make sure you're not wearing anything to depict that you're a Newcastle fan if you do - it makes Moss Side in Manchester seem friendly!

We still have a left winger at the club - just not in your personal opinion!

So when does the big Readathon start? 26428[/snapback] Balls to that. I don't read kid's books. Not even for Michael Owen. 26437[/snapback] Where is your honour dirtbag, you are an absolute disgrace!

I'm looking into it... I can disable BB code easily enough but don't want to do that as some (MattM4's for instance) is OK and inobtrusive...

Class!

Think we need a 'Nobbyspotting' poster.... Where's peasepud when you need him?

Finger's crossed matey.... I'm due to be in the same situation 8 weeks tomorrow!

One of the few pundits who always gets behind us 100% Top man!

Hell, lets get Stevie Watson back!

Now isn't this a sight for sore eyes.....?

I agree, not quite the bad influence and "cancer at the club" that some people claimed he is 26077[/snapback] I'm beginning to believe that Souness was brought in deliberately to hold the reins while Shearer prepared to take over. He's been heavily involved in 2 massive transfers this summer and it's all experience. Perhaps his 'staying on' was more a case that things weren't ready fo him to take over?

May have come 12 months after he said it would but Fat Fred has certainly surprised me. If you'd have told me at the end of May that we'd beat Everton to the signatures of Parker and Emre and Liverpool to the signatures of Owen and Solano, i'd have laughed in your face! I only hope to god we capitalise on a great summer's worth of transfer activity - we have in the past bombed out despuite spending well during the summer...

Calm down dear.....it's only that twat!

Many happy returns matey!

It's so hard to choose... Owen - world class, but we're yet to see it in action Solano - goes without saying! Emre - What we've seen has been so promising, just hope he isn't always so injury prone! Parker - awesome, no other word for it - finally a replacement holding midfielder for Rob Lee Luque - Need to see more of him to make a judgement Clark - emotional return - hope it's more productive than Elliott's Moore - an addition to the squad, not everyone's choice but better than nothing at all! It has to be Parker for me!

Yer i was thinking that as well can he take 4 as well ?? As butt is on loan 25435[/snapback] No, Butt is still registered at Newcastle. 25436[/snapback] As was Crespo with Chelsea when he went on loan to Milan last season.... Kezman still took his no.9 shirt though! 25674[/snapback] What sort of a gimp knows shit facts like that? 25677[/snapback] Feck off tin-pot!! 'bout time you read up on your NUFC history isn't it?

Or even... Newcastle 4 Liverpool 0 (Everton is a suburb of Liverpool after all! )

Indeed I can't... Still remember standing in the kitchen at home listening to us getting our arses kicked at Arsenal.... Soon forgot about though - the tragic events at Hillsborough took over! RIP to all 96 - any true football fan is with you on that!

Think you'll find the stock market is more accurate....! Net profit of £1.3m on him then!

That's Louis Saha out on his arse then!

I don't dispute that the fans and Shearer played a huge part, but the money they were able to play and the tactics of the deal came from the board. Yes some of it is the fans money, but there are lots of clubs with lots of fans and they can't do deals like we were able to yesterday. 24372[/snapback] We had the money last summer - Rooney didn't want to join! So the board had the cash and so they fucking should with the amount they rake in and pay themselves in dividends... The reasons that Michael Owen is at this club is the fans and Alan Shearer. Wigan could have probably found the money, doesn't mean he was off to the JJB! 24378[/snapback] How do you think the money was available last year? The board didn't go for easy answers and nor did they pay over the odds for average players. I think we're going to have to agree to disagree. No hard feelings. 24387[/snapback] Everyone knows how the money was made available.......Northern Rock were going to fund it!
