  1. i think it's more to do with the fact he gets the wrong type of ball played to him, rather than a through ball to run onto with maybe 1-2 defenders to wrong foot and hit have a dig, he gets given the ball with his back to goal 30yards out with an entire defense around him... or knock downs currently from shola which well says it all really. See, that's my main gripe with Martins and his pace. He doesn't get these balls because his movement is awfully shit. He never anticipates situations and starts runs to show his team mates they can pass the ball to him. Mostly he just waits and only starts running after the ball has been played - only then he starts chasing it (btw he could have got some of Shola's knock downs if had started running earlier). He'd make a perfect cat playing with a ball of whool if he wasn't a professional football player unfortunately.
  2. I cant see why people hate him!? Yeah his end product was shit last night but he always looks 10x more likely to score than Ameobi, Smith, Xisco, Carroll or anyone else we have fit at the minute. Hes also the only player in the team atm who can skin a player Too bad, he tries to skin half the opposition team most of the times and loses possession when he fails taking on the third player. With Martins there is unfortunately a huge gap between claim and reality. Of course is Martins our biggest threat at the moment. I still think he mostly makes next to nothing out of his pace and skill because he is just incredible thick.

  4. Good that there is no 50 cent option or Teed would be hurling coins...
  5. No, due diligence normally follows the so called letter of intent where parties declare that they are seriously interested in doing a deal. Due diligence is formost to evaluate the risk a deal can bring. It would be pretty pointless in doing it after the deal has already been done (except if you are Mike Ashley).
  6. He mentioned it on Saturday in an interview with NUFCTV.
  7. Posts: 1605 You signed up after me and have nearly twice as many posts as me. 1604 defending Spurs from incorrect obsessive remarks from NUFC fans on here. Ah, so all those Newcastle related topics you started are actually in defence of Spurs. Thanks for the explanation.

    Herzlichen Glückwunsch.
  9. Proved to be totally incompetent today. Refereeing Panathinaikos vs. Werder. Gave a strange corner which lead to the Greeks going 2-1 in front. The greek striker kicks the ball out, is aware of it and is runs back to the centre circle - then looks totally surprised that the referee awarded a corner. A lot of other big mistakes as well (Mertesacker clearly handled the ball before he scored the 1-0).
  10. I still thought he was getting in everyone's way tbh... Duff was MOTM for me. Duff really looked like a totally different player. He was actually getting past players, showed good ball control. Shame about his lack of composure after Ameobi's sublime through ball. Other than that I am not too pleased with Ameobi's performance. Granted he worked really hard and scored. But he still looked like totally lacking any sort of football brain with no real awareness of where to be and what to do. He was just chasing the ball and trying to battle for it. From a top league footballer I do expect a bit more tbh.
  11. Apart from some friendlies last year he hasn't looked promising at all. I find it particularly strange that he played at all considering he was out for so long. He hasn't even played for the reserves has he?
  12. As funny as it was four months ago... http://www.toontastic.net/board/index.php?...=prince++throne
  13. I hope Freddie Shepherd is reading this and that bit sticks in his throat. Sure, SBR came off the rails a bit in the end and his time as our manager was drawing to a close, but the big failing was not invoking some sort of handover to a new manager - instead, they just pushed him out of the door and with it, our form evaporated. The main culprit was Dougie Hall though, wasn't he? Weren't his words "with Robson we would have got relegated"? Numpty.
  14. And remember 2 singles can work out cheaper! It might also be cheaper to buy a ticket from Leeds to Manchester then Manchester to Stoke. Sounds wrong, but I save about £5 on a single from Swansea to Bristol by changing my ticket at Cardiff Ive looked at that I dont travel by train a lot, what websites are useful. Isegrim, where have you seen that? http://nationalrail.co.uk/
  15. ? When I look up fares the most expensive return ticket I see costs 44 pound.
  16. We'll probably hear that the Milner deal also isn't worth 12m itself but rather 2m + a further 10m depending on future international appearances, world footballer awards etc.
  17. I guess the club are just using him as a sort of spokesman. He's the new club mole to appease fans with stories fans want to hear.

  19. Vodka doesnt really smell though Mixed with loads of other drinks it does.
  20. To be fair, it is said over there that it is copied from you post on W-O.
  21. I read utterly stupid comments from fans fools on a football message board about a former great player and manager of the club... Else I once played with my youth team ahead of a friendly when Dortmund played a regional XI. I scored a hattrick. When posing with some of the professional players (Andi Möller the tw*t didn't bother to because he had to warm up) Michael Rummenigge (the younger brother of Karl-Heinz) congratulated me on the performance and asked me to stand next to him. Then he smelled alcohol. When he realised that it was me (I was on a school leaving party the night before and had my first experiments with vodka) he was shocked "How did you manage to score three goals?" Shortly after he left to play in Japan. People in my local pub said I scared him away.
  22. Yep, you get a Keano wanks his dog t-shirt and 28 years worth of SAFC "we're gonna beat the mags this time" commemorative programmes. 2 for 1 deals even.
  23. is he being serious? it's hard to tell on a forum He is you know. i dont think he is, surely noone can be that much of an idiot I was going to mention Shearer, goals and open play as opposed to dead ball situations but fuck it, why bother? Shearer + local hero = legend. If you are happy with that then great. You rarely see it typed out nowadays, but: What the fuck?
  24. Wins fuck all in the air which is not good enough for a defender in this league. Nice to see no one judging him yet, or jumping to conclusions after 7 weeks of the season. To be fair to Sima: Once bitten, twice shy.
