Brilliant game, shearer beardsley and gascoine on the same pitch. Fantastic. Mag factor 200 for the benefit of YankeeToon

If he'd wanted Anelka he would have got him, nothing more to it than that for fucks sake. All the rest is the usual 'if Owen leaves' crap, which as I've said, he bloody will if arseholes keepgoing on like this. No big club has come in, and no club will, you're fucking worse than the Sun. Baggio is right, you're fucking hard work mate =) Wasn't worth reading past, "we didn't go for Anelka because we had Luque".

Stretching my patience she was, but I do know how bad sciataca is, so I let her off being a total spaz attack

tbf both teams were gash tonight....compared tot previous games in the tournament !! Never mind ..a wins a win It's not when I lose! are you French ?? English, but with more belief than these soft shites. I took the bet we would win by 10 points ahhh...it all becomes clear.. About bliddy time. If you weren't an invalid I might have been swearing by now

Talk to Wigan Shola, they take mis-understood England stars.

Fucking useless arseholes can't even beat France by more than 10 points.

So we could afford to let Owen's contract run down because we don't need the money? Is this the same club that spent less net than Man City, Fulham, Sunderland, Everton, Spurs, Liverpool, Man Utd, Aston Villa and Boro? The same club that's been losing on average over £1 million a month? No club could afford to lose a player like that for next to nothing and if Mort lets it happen then he's an idiot. You know what, fuck it, you clearly won't see what's in front of you. Come back in 12 months and lets have the same conversation.

I need us to win by more than 10 to collect. Come on you fucking pussies!

Why did they bother building Wembley? After 80 minutes that shithouse looked like the Riverside.

That's the point, they started on -15 points, without which they would be 8 points clear

Anelka signed a contract at the end of August, after Sam had been here for months buying players like they were going out of fashion. It's pretty clear either Anelka didn't wan't to come here, or Allardyce didn't want him. I don't really care about Owen's contract, that's the grain of your whole argument, if A then B and C so we should do D etc etc etc, it's frankly pointless and get's you nowhere. How about we just concentrate on getting him playing and maybe convince him wants to stay, rather than having this stupid sideshow. For the last time, we absolutely do not need the money, Allardyce has said it, Mort has said it, it's something I thought was pretty obvious. As for Wenger, that is the same as Fergie, getting rid of players deemed surplus knowing he has a ready supply of equal or better players, that is called squad development not cashing in for financial reasons. And the players you mentioned had put in many seasons for the team and Wenger knew their worth and decided he could improve, something that is definitely not the case here. Allardyce hasn't even seen what Owen could do for us, so thoughts of replacing him now don't even compare to what Wenger or Ferguson do.

8 points clear at the top of the league, but mid table at the same time. As much as I despise the fuckers, this has to be acknowledged.

mercenary barsteward I don't love the club or have a club crest tattooed on my chest but I give 100% when I play. I bet you think about playing for Newcastle when you do though. What an utter barsteward.

"You have to come to work but you definitely won't be working", can't say I see the point in that. Leave it to the player to decide, you can tell a lot about their character if you do. As for injured players, I think for some it can be negative if your force them to watch the team knowing they can't play. (especially if they don't give a shit about Newcastle - that's only Owen of course)

They do indeed. The Aldi graduate management scheme is £40k a year plus an Audi A4. Granted theres probably only 1 job but the likes of Tesco and Asda's similar schemes only pay £22k. Fuck knows why they pay so high - I asked the bloke at a careers fair and he didn't know the answer himself! Danger money, pure and simple. Sainsbury's graduate goes to work with a suggestion pad, Aldi graduate goes in with a stab vest.

Fuck that, support your postie I found myself in the Metrocentre the other day because of the posties, gave me the chance to support a real north east company, the Rock. Seen RM vans all over the place as well, all driven by smiling happy bastards. Taking the absolute Micheal Owen.

Just seen this after replying in the other thread. £10m would be bloody ridiculous, theatre fees or not

Anthony Hutton played for us in the Sky legends just gone, what did happen that I was surprised about was that Liam kid from Durham who I thought laughed when he read out the mackem score on 'BB news' turned out for the mackems?

Which is why I've said offer him a contract now and if he turns that down then sell him in January, which would be the same as what Liverpool done apart from we would sell him with 18 months left on his contract for alot more money. If Owen were to walk away for free in 18 months or for around £6 million in the summer because we didn't qualify for Europe then where is the money going to come from to replace him? The fact is lad bigger clubs than Newcastle cash in on their better players if they think it's a good deal, £15 million for an injury prone player with 18 months on his contract and god knows what sort of get out clauses thrown in is a good deal. As for a replacement, I'd like Anelka here as he's not only a better striker than Owen but he's more versatile too. For a start, Big Sam does not want or couldn't get Anelka, he signed a contract on 30 Aug so that's dead and buried. As I said before, if you carry on with the attitude you espouse, which basically amounts to 'fuck you, I don't believe what you say' then yes your strategy might be a good one. In the real world it's total crap. Not that I've been that bothered but I'd be interested to know how much is left on Taylor's contract and what you're opinions are on the lad, regarding this mythical 18 month financial milestone. And let's forget £15m for a start, it's a newspaper figure. If the buying club thinks the way you do he would be worth half that. Like I've said, for us, Owen is not injury prone but unlucky, as Alex pointed out he might have had a few before, frankly I never paid much attention before he signed for us, it didn't concern me then. Would you have signed Shearer at 27? Just as injury 'prone' as Owen I would bet. You have a negative attitude that assumes the worst regarding players. No one has won jack shit thinking like that. Like I said, Man U have maybe sold a player for finacnial reasons that deserved to be in the team, Alex Ferguson himself has admitted that was probably wrong.
