Optimistic Nut

That's the worst part of it all for me. Seriously, what the f*ck?

I can do Gateshead too.

To be honest, they were sh*te against us too. We were just worse.

Well that pun was just crepe. (I can see where this thread might go)

28 and he's resorted to this.

Hasn't he just been named Assistant at Stoke last week?

I think we'll get a point on Sunday, no idea why given our recent record down there.

Sad as it seems, I'd still say he's a better full-back than Edgar. What happened to that Zayatte bloke anyway? Did he turn us down, or did Keegan not rate him?

Who from this list played against the Scandinavians about 4 years ago?

The Olympic port and the beach is good as well.

Could make player number 12 if needed.

Currently starring in central midfield for Sevilla after an excellent season for Racing Santander last season getting them into Europe. Cheers Sam.

The stories that they want Yakubu had better be b*llocks then, because there's no way Keegan would come back to find a player bought for him.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/...--Football.html Hmm. 15.30 Have Newcastle been ‘merked’? The man behind the TV Classic Rio’s World Cup Wind-ups claims he is heading up a Nigerian consortium to buy Newcastle. Chris Nathaniel, whose NVA agency produced what it called the “hugely successful TV spin-off”, reckons he has got together a group of wealthy Nigerians who are willing to pay £350 million for Newcastle. Nathaniel told Nigerian website kickoff. com: “I have been working hard to get wealthy and football loving Nigerian entrepreneurs to buy the club since the owner Mike Ashley indicated his willingness to sell the club to the person, people or entrepreneurs that can meet the £400 million selling price of the club. “Right now I am happy to tell you that well meaning Nigerians have responded and the consortium of Nigerian entrepreneurs has so far contributed £350 million to buy the club but the club boss, Ashley stood his ground that he won’t sell the club until the money is raised to the asking price of £400 million. “So what that means is that we need to raise another £50 or £100 million pounds to shut the door behind the other top Arab companies that are also interested in the club. The Arab companies have also indicated interest and made offer but they haven’t met the asking price too.” Is this for real? Could Nigeria, rich in oil wealth don’t forget, be about to buy out Newcastle? Could Obafemi Martins be playing international football, kind of, every week? It’s Newcastle, after all, so anything’s possible. But Nathaniel has got previous. Wind-Ups, as if you don’t remember, was Rio’s take on the MTV Punked format. Essentially Beadle’s About for Generation X, it was a series of set-ups where a secret camera filmed Peter Crouch laughing at a midget and David Beckham jumping out of a moving car in Moss Side. Just as it got serious, Rio would jump out with the camera crew and shout: “Wazza!/Becks!/Crouchy! You’ve been merked!” Rio has supposedly grown up since then, but Ashley had better watch out regardless. His reputation could sink any further. But being outsmarted by Rio Ferdinand may just constitute a whole new low.

Seriously? thats your argument as to why people shouldnt ridicule you when they disagree? The point being i've not ridiculed anyone's opinion on this at all and was defending the right to express an opinion. I've argued coherently about some points i believe to be true and thats it. You have lumped me in with something ON has apparently done without me being aware of what it is you're talking about. Its that attention to detail that worried me if you are going to be the one 'establishing the facts'. I take the piss out of HTT all the time, i've not once ridiculed his opinion on this or many other issues relating to it. You can talk anyway, what a fucking hypocrite! Can I just ask what I'm supposed to have done here?! I think I've let it known I think Ashley and the "regime" failed and should go, but feel disappointed and a bit p*ssed off with Keegan all the same.

€2m fee agreed, medical tomorrow on Marca website tonight.

Sign Gattuso...

My dad's just muttered "tw*t" at 1:33.

It's not a case of him getting a "fresh start", he's our 5th choice striker imo, 3 of our first 4 are out, so he's next in line...

GK - Given RB - Carr LB - Enrique CB - Taylor CB - Cacapa RM - Milner LM - Duff CM - Rozehnal CM - N'Zogbia CF - Ameobi CF - Owen

I'd take Carroll AND Ameobi ahead of Smith.

I know you hate Shola, but to pick a player who couldn't force his way ahead of Ormerod & Mellor in a side in the relegation-zone in the Championship ahead of Ameobi is a bit much...
