We will just have to grit our teeth and ignore it but if mickey owen goes then i wud expect a field day of epic proportions to unfold - i am really looking forward to alan green commentating on one of our games - not that he will show any bias or bitterness towards us

Nah because he is suing for lost wages and future earnings which have been jeopardised by the sacking it has to be decided in court - unless of course freddy decides to bend over and get shafted off his lawyers - but they would just be plucking sums of money out of the air - cud be nasty

You watch how big sam gets rounded on by the bbc pundits etc - it'll build up to a crescendo if he loses a couple of matches - there is an agenda goin on here and its not just to do with the panorama programme - fukin southern media luvvies - i shit you not if we had fielded an ineligble player we would have been relegated

As has been noted upon this forum before Parker unfortunately is a jack of all trades master of none in the midfield - don't get me wrong i think he gives 100% effort but he lacks the positional sense to be a defensive midfielder and the passing range and shooting accuracy for an attacking midfielder - so for 8 million then egghead can get his biscuit tin out and have him - no bother

Could do (and have done!!) alot worse than tudor - specially for nowt

He is a horrible twat like - apparently his favourite trick at liverpool was to tell any fans who spoke to him to fuck off

Just read on sky sports that Igor Tudor is available on a free and expressing a desire to play in the prem - just the type sam likes and would be fantastic - he tried to sign him acouple of seasons ago

Southern media conspiracy - hate the fukin lot of them - the only way to shut twats like this up is for sam to do the business and ram it down their throats - big club? fuck off you twat - they are all wankin over keano already - he looks like he cud be the best thing thats happened to them for a while but nothing will piss people off quicker than these arsewipes eulogising how great he his when they haven't even kicked a ball in the Pl

If the reports of 14mill are correct- then good riddance - no first touch and crap at one on ones - link up play leaves a lot to be desired aswell - i haven't got anything against the lad and was hoping he would settle in but if we make a profit i don't think it is the end of the world

Can't blame the bloke - that whole programme was carefully edited sensationalism and ffs reacted in a wholly inappropriate way - innocent until proven otherwise

I think he decided he had enough a while ago but it doesn't excuse that behaviour - mindboggling decision not to start him though but maybe pearson was continuing the roeder vendetta against him

Howey was undone by his lack of physical strength and injury weakness - Taylor has this physical advantage but not sure whether he has Howeys class - needs to stop the prancing horse routines Taylor needs brought along by an experienced defensive partner As for being a mackem - so what - Paul Bracewell and Barry Venison both had lengthy stints for the scum and were nothing short of magnificent playing for us

Agree with some of it but i don't see how the fans can be blamed for the bling culture - all we do is support the team - were not bothered about trophy signings - all we want is players that can and want to play for us and put us in a position of being successful As for Allardyce - he has ambition - so what - doesn't everybody- and i don't think we have jumped into bed with the first replacement available he is obviously the guy ffs has wanted for a long time and this deal was done weeks ago

Its like the fukin keystone kops - how the hell did the 9million figure become acceptable in the negotiation process of the contract Any fukin idiot cud see he was using us to get an england place surely the financial people who deal with these things wud say hold on i think 15million wud be a more acceptable figure knowing he wud fuk off at the first opportunity Shepherd is crapping himself cos he knows he has dropped the bollock of all bollocks by allowing this (if it is true) and is engineering a situation where Owen looks like a judas for leaving I don't trust owen - never have - but this will surely lead to a motion of no confidence on the board against shepherd and force his removal if this release clause exists and is invoked

Excellent observation and i totally agree that he has probably gone or is about to go - fuckin tragic waste of money the whole owen business

Mmm I seem to remember Glenn eulogising over the importance of PMT (positive mental thoughts) that is - seems his players may have suffered from the female alternative of that abbreviation

Might be a bit of a circus like with Sven -but it just shows you the class of people we can still attract - i think we do ourselves down

The quality of players that Sven could attract could see us mount a serious challenge to the top four - plus Owen wouldn't leave

No - I presumed it would never happen because Shepherd is in love with Allardyce and it is a done deal i wasn't dismissing houllier as a quality coach who could do a good job

He is a very astute operator i think in the mould of Sir Bob and even though it would never happen i reckon it is shortsighted and ignorant to dismiss him out of hand

Its up to Sam (possibly?) at the end of the day and if Owen isn't or doesn't want to be part of the plans then get as much for him as possible along with the rest of the dross so we can have a decent warchest to spend on fresh blood - i don't beleive in an escape clause but their is alot of spin being spun in order to generate a move for the prodigious england striker (probably by the southern media and his agents)

Harsh but i don't think any of us could wish him well

Lets face it he just used us as a vehicle to get to the world cup - cos he wasn't gettin a game for madrid he needed somewhere in england to play and we are the only ones outside the top four who can afford him Hurts to think that way but he has no loyalty to us and would jump at the chance of man u No doubt the heart wrenching expose of how he felt he had let the geordie nation down after he has left will come to the surface but its just piss and wind

Like any of us would give a shit how we played if we broke into the top 6 and got to a cup final - like you say its media bollocks that the geordies need pure football to be happy - its a conspiracy created by the southern press and accepted by the likes of anal oliver so that we win fuck all - i've watched bolton play and some of it is really good - what wrong with being organised its better than being the laughing stock of the league like our defense is

Would be a real shame if he went but if it is goin to happen 15million is the price i would think is acceptable - we can be a really good side again with or without him it would just be easier with him
