  1. "It is perfectly reasonable to ask clubs to have at least three UK-born players on the park at any one time," he said.

     

    No, no it isnt. What if one gets injured? Are you meant to only put another UK player on just to keep these happy? I agree with the sentiment, but its worthless unless the whole of football agreed. If anything, it should be in the squad or in the starting lineup. But, I just cant see it happening.

    We manage it with ease, even Manchester United and Chelsea do it's just teams like Arsenal that can't manage this.

  2. boring crap.... can't stand this sport.

    Would love it if it was far less stop and go. Actual play is cool but far too many stoppages to make it enjoyable. Plus it's just ridiculously over the top, 60 players, special players, every inch of movement is a tactic...

     

    Might give this one a watch though :razz:

    I totally agree, I do like it alot but I would enjoy it a lot more if the breaks between plays weren't so long the fact that they either cut to adverts or to the studio is annoying as well I'd rather stick with the game. The average time the games take whenever I watch seems to be around 3 hours they could easily knock a lot of time off this, I think they may need to do this if they really do want to 'break' the European market.

  3. :razz: They're proving they know nowt yet again ffs why would Ashley and Mort bring someone in with the intention to undermine a manager who they just brought in I say this because I'm not longer sure if these windowlickers are trying to state fact or making yet another hilarious satirical view of our club.

    As far as I can tell Wise can't bring in senior players, that's Keegans department, his job is simply to bring in youth players and that tripe about Wise 'privately rejecting claims that he'll answer to Keegan' what a load of shit I should think Wise is more intelligent than to start a new job thinking he's above the manager and on top of that take on a club favorite, he isn't going to be beating Keegan in any popularity contest is he. Also what would Wise get out of undermining Keegan? if he is apparently saying he quit Leeds because he was sick of commuting he's hardly going to be desperate to become our manager.

    edit/ I noticed that at the end of the article @yourservice posted the writer mentions that Arsenal is ran "the old-school way" strange that because Giles Grimandi seems to be the one buying all the quality youth players that Arsenal pick up it's just Wenger gets all the credit off writers like him.

  4. Well looking forward too it, I like the Cowboys and the Chargers so since they are both out I'm wanting the Patriots to win for that record.

    Has anyone else noticed how much they are talking about Tynes and Umenyiora about them being born in Britain, too be fair they are both basically American, Tynes dad was American and I think he was in the US air force while he was posted here Tynes was born then he moved back to USA when he was 12 and Osi only lived in London for his first 7 years they both even have Yank accents ffs, shameless attempt to pull in Brit viewers tbh.

  5. hope no one throws the 'bleechers' at him

     

     

     

    can you clue me in on this one...

    He's referring to when Bellamy (not entirely sure if it was him) threw some chairs at carver when they were arguing.

  6. :razz: That was pathetic, just as pathetic was this response:

     

    This feature is brilliant, the full Newcastle set-up is a farce, I would be thoroughly ashamed if Mr Quinn or Mr Keane did anything like this to Sunderland.

    I hope the Magpies get relegated, and finally show them they are no bigger a club than the majority in the Premier League.

     

    - Scott Mac, Sunderland, Tyne and Wear

     

    :brrr: This coming from a guy who supports a club where the chairman is in love with the manager despite him being shit and is just trying to turn sunderland into Man utd's reserve side. Also I fail to see how our set-up is a farce it seems a pretty good idea to have the manager concentrating on the first team while someone else ensures our youth set-up is working and bringing in new yougsters B) I'm guessing he simply doesn't know what he's talking about and doesn't know Wise's actual role so he should butt out the thick inbred.

  7. The MoD just sent me a lovely letter informing me my details were among those stolen from the MoD laptop, they say their security fell way below their high standards and say sorry a few times, great :icon_lol: can't see owt happening with my details but I'll be right fucked off if something does.

    Does anyone know how many others got nicked?

  8. Did West Ham not beat them, Zamora scoring.

    Ah right is that their only loss?

    As for going down I just see those below us as being alot worse I know we haven't bought but look at the players the clubs below us have brought in.

    Derby are gone for sure, Fulham only have 16 points and Wigan + Birmingham have 20 each I don't see them catching that 7 point gap. Obviously we shouldn't just assume that we are staying up and get complacent but I am confident that we can avoid being relegated as we do have alot of the teams below us to play at home.

  9. To be fair we've played Bolton who played the 10-0-1 formation and then Arsenal twice in a row at the Emirates, which they are unbeaten in (I think).

    We aren't safe at the minute but I doubt we will go down there are plenty of teams much worse than us and we've still got 4 players to come back.

  10. I've been watching this series and so far it has been very good, up there with his series about gangs. I think it is also good that Kemp doesn't bother putting in any of the politics and debates he simply is trying to give us insight into what the soldiers are experiencing. Just wondering if anyone else is watching it, I think the first two episodes are on youtube as well.

  11. Spineless self centered wanker is Shearer.

     

    Just likes to talk the talk about being a manager, hasn't got the balls to walk the walk imo

     

     

    Heard a tale the other day that one of the lads in the bar had seen him somewhere and when walking past said "alright Alan" Shearers retort "it's Mr Shearer to you".

     

    Not the first time I've heard tales along the lines of this, should have spat in his fucking face and said "how do you like that Mr Shearer, you cunt"

     

    Was he burning £50 notes whilst drinking his pint?

     

    No, he was rolling them up and using them to snort lines of cocaine from a small vanity mirror, all this whilst walking, some boy I tell you.

    :rolleyes:

    To be fair to him I'm sure most would be arrogant if they'd had all the kiss arses around them for the time Shearer has, Hanson still does on motd and his columns.

  12. That bloke has an obsession with Wenger and our 'small' club, why don't they just stop all this carry on they are just making themselves look ridiculous it's as if they are trying to outdo each other with 'witty' and 'humorous' articles about Newcastle. They seem to think they are getting to us in the same way Keegan's theater joke got to them when in reality it's all just starting to get tedious, fans of other clubs don't want to buy a paper to read some arrogant tosser write little more than petty abuse about someone else's club I'm sure they thought it was great at first but this bandwagon is getting old now.

  13. Lassana Diarra said something similar about pompey being a stepping stone, but he's already been at Arsenal and Chelsea :rolleyes:

    He's a good player but a total nonce, plus him and Butt had that little slapping match when we played spurs last season.
