RlCO

He's just a sheet metal workers son from Gosforth.

That was the case after the Dyer / Bowyer bout as we were a plc then and (as far as the shareholders were concerned) they were assets. However, now we're privately owned what is to stop Ashley either sacking him for gross misconduct or paying his contract up if he wants? I would like to see the FA step in and take the issue off our hands. I thought they had rules about bringing the game into disrepute, granting he is still 'innocent' (stupidly because he was allowed to delay trial because he was a footballer )

Sir Les does a job. Shearer is just Mr. Obvious, to be honest. Only employed for his England record along with Ian Wright Wright Wright and crisp boy.

That's not a good thing.

Because if he blows £30 million on shit then gets the sack at the end of the season (which in my opinion is looking likely) then, well, we'll have £30m pounds worth of shit footballers the next manager probably wont fancy. One of the things that gets on my goat is the pro-Allardyce supporters keep spouting that he's only spent 12m pounds so far at Newcastle but the truth is he's had upwards of 25m and honestly look at the players he brought to the club?!?? It appears he's a manager that just can't be trusted with a large budget, give him a pitance and he's more likely to fluke a reasonable tranfer or two. There is no budget, he picks targets and gets a yes or no from Mort. You've said that before but there's obviously a 'budget'. Obvious in so far as he won't be given £100m. Going on BSA and Morts comments this is how it works. Are you saying that in secret Mort has told BSA he has £X m to spend? Maybe he has, I don't know. The fact you concede there is a limit suggests there is a budget. It's all semantics though. I would imagine they've already discussed potential targets and how high they would bid for each etc. That's a budget even if they haven't said you have precisely £30m to spend or whatever. Not in any normal sense of the word. Of course it is you tit. So if BSA identifies 5 £1m rated players and Mort agrees none should go over £1m, then the budget is £5m; but if he identifies 5 £2m rated players, is he then going to double the 'budget' ? You set a budget before identifyng targets, if you'regoing to set one, setting it afterwards is negotiation strategy.

Even less, at least Milner runs. He runs, it's just he has a lower maximum speed due to his little legs. In fact I'm pretty sure he has to run constantly just to keep up with play. Emre isn't slow, tbh. Proper 100m sprinter isn't he. Or did you mean mentally? (the kid who acts like a twat when we have used all three subs, and starts full scale riots while on international duty)

I'm sure that's his top concern in this match Noelie, not being shown up about Enrique

If we sacked Allardyce and installed Shearer as manager do you think he'd want to join nufc??? His head wouldn't fit through the door now.

There is no budget, he picks targets and gets a yes or no from Mort. Ok, I'd rather the club said NO outright to any target Allardyce that costs more than 2m pounds. And as Alex said, of course there is a budget. So if BSA found out Deco really likes Stottie cakes, snow and percentage football, you'd veto it?

red cards?

It's like when parents stick a Shrek DVD on to keep the kids quiet.

He offers nothing, in a Milner type uselessness way.

Thats hardly a fact - the courts seemed to beleive it was worth locking him for. I dont discount the posibility I may change my mind but at the moment I hope we never see him anywhere Newcastle again. I would imagine he would have been bailed for this had he not already been on bail.

1/2 bottle on boxing day + 1/2 bottle on new years eve = no more john daniels for R|CO

What concert was it? Spice Girls.

I never realised Noelie didn't like BSA. You learn something everyday.

Carlito's Way / Sopranos in the breaks

Enough of this Mark Lawrenson sponsored thead. oooh, defenders don't like pace. No shit stupid.

Someone needs to take a stand at the club because it's clear the FA don't give a shit. Rule 1: If you ever act like a stupid can't take a tackle weak as piss couldn't beat your way out a paper bag would rather be at home sucking your mother's teat kind of asshole piece of shite diving cheating mother fucker, then your contract is cancelled. Rule 2. What? You need more than one rule mother fucker? Get out of here!
