BBC Ticker is reporting....

What's wrong with my judgement like? He's a decent, mid-table keeper - no more and IMO inferior the majority of first choice keepers in the Premiership. At present, I think Given is the best there is (over the years I've challenged that claim when it's been made by others). His true value to us will be shown when he leaves and we really will start to freefall. Pissing off Shay will prove to be Ashley's costliest mistake ever IMO.
-
Whilst he's been a fantastic servant to the club, I don't rate Harper that highly if I'm honest and have serious concerns. Goalkeeper was the one position we were rock solid in. I dread to think the amount of points that Shay has earned us over the years (the past 5 in particular). Him leaving could well be the plug being removed from the Premiership bath. I seriously doubt we'll avoid relegation now.
-
Given what he's had at his disposal, he's done about as good as he can. The only thing about him that really pisses me off is him opening his trap too much. He's not the problem, it's the structure above him and I don't think it matters who is in the hotseat at the moment
-
Decent keeper - no Shay Given though...
-
Before Woodgate, I'd believe that.... Who are we trying to kid, there's fuck all wrong with him.

A knee injury?? FFS - will they just stop fucking lying to us?

I'm gutted man. Excuse my ignorance of NUFC in the 80s, and correct me if i'm wrong - but that money was never re-invested properly into the team was it? We'll be getting £20m ish from Milner and Given and seeing absolutely fuck all from it. Fuming. Depends on your definition of 're-invested properly' I guess. The money we got for Gazza brought in 4 players - on paper you'd consider that to be good business. In reality, 2 of that 4 (Robertson & Beasant) absolutely flopped, the brightest of the 4 (Hendrie) couldn't save us from relegation on his own and jumped ship to the better prospect of Leeds when we got relegated and Andy Thorn just wasn't good enough IMO. I don't think we'll see any more than £8m for Given and that's without any players coming the other way. Yes, he's worth more to us and we should be demanding a better deal but this is Ashley & Wise we're talking about. They'll see it simply as good money for a 32 year old and a reduction on the wages overhead. Sad really.... but if you put yourself in their shoes for a moment, you know damned well they'll accept it
-
agree totally. Worst sale since Goddard IMO
-
quite pathetic that the last time he attended a game, Keegan was manager. 5 months ago man.... and this is "the club he loves"....
-
The golden rule is if they're here they're shit. Bassong? Even a broken clock is right twice a day man Jonny... the little cunt got lucky with Bassong.
-
Rumour this morning is that we've approached them to take him on loan for the rest of the season. Do they honestly think Celtic are going to let their captain go out on loan?
-
Didn't that little cunt say he was only going to be in charge of the youth?? I don't call Shay, at 32 years old, youth... Fuck off Wise.
-
Will he be playing tonight?
-
I think we'll take a point from the two games - maybe even sneak a win against the Mackems. Nowt tonight though.
-
And when the fuck are you leaving?
-
Fucking hell HF, I didn't have you down for naive...
-
There's so much of it around, we might as well still it all in one thread. Here's a starter for 10.
-
ITK?
-
plenty of cunts at the club, might as well have a fanni too....
