It's an odd one like. Me? The last thing I'd be thinking about is football and if I was a manager and my player came to me with the kind of personal problems Boumsong has, I'd say go home, take all the time you need. But perhaps football is helping him to cope? Either way fair play to the lad. He's been poor this season and has had a lot of criticism from Toon fans and the media but I still have high hopes for him under a decent manager who knows how to organise a back-four properly. 100019[/snapback] Tbf playing alongside Bramble doesn't exactly breed confidence. I also belive when he plays alongside he is forced out of his usual deep, sweeping up role and has to play a chasing game which he doesn't like. Compound that with his private life and you've got a nervous wreck of a player.

I'm Taylor27. 100003[/snapback] Unlucky

The whole midfield in general have been better, instead of the defence clearing the ball over them we're actually putting it on the floor and playing

Tbh he shouldn't even be playing with his current personal issues.

three times actually... we'd slready merged two threads together (wish people would read before they post, it's not like we're even a busy forum) 99677[/snapback] Sorry, I had a look before posting and never saw either of them.

Just been reported on talksport that they "understand" Martin O'Neil has turned down the chance to manage England and will join Newcastle United instead.

I belive this is a better side on paper, but the most likely reason we were disappointing the season we finished fifth is down to the fact that the rest of the premiership improved and we didn't, I belive are only investment in the summer was Mr. Bowyer.

Bellamy used to play like that every week. 98925[/snapback] No he didn't. He was good, but he had his fair share of shite games too. 98952[/snapback] Rubbish. Bellamy had the odd poor game, his level of consistency was very high for us. 99299[/snapback] Tbf he only became consistant after a major injury towards the end of his Newcastle career.

I agree, a WUM of the highest order. 98804[/snapback] I don't think he's a WUM tbh. Just a fuckwit. 98813[/snapback] He's both tbh.

Three fantastic chances for Arsenal, they really should have taken them, they may not get any more all game.

I agree, a WUM of the highest order.

He only lurks tbh.

Yeah but what if he then denies denying that he'd denied denying the Hitzfeld story after the press conference! 98627[/snapback] Then Souness will loan him to Celtic for lying live on SSN. 98637[/snapback] FFS, this isn't Taylor27 from N-O is it? 98643[/snapback] yeth, yeth it ith. 98648[/snapback] Looks like we're in for lots of bullshit opinions and false rumours then

Has porridge been around that long then? I thought he was quite a new user. Seems to be a big fan of Luque anyway 98629[/snapback] I jumped ship because of users like porridge constantly posting shite, and all the decent posters seem to do is bang on about Hitzfeld

welcome...love the username 98607[/snapback] Going against the admin on this one are you? Now, where's my cane? 98611[/snapback] So this is how you guys work on here.

Welcome Shame about the username 98605[/snapback] Unfortunately my surname is Belmore so I can't win either way really.

I'm new aswell, jumped ship from the N-O board

He may be out but at least it's better than him picking up another injury

I love watching that advert just to see Ronaldinho's goal at the end, has to be one of the best I've seen.

first of all they were away to Middlesbrough 98122[/snapback] Aye it was obviously the cauldron of hate that is the Riverside that put Chelsea off, usually more chance of being distracted by flying season ticket books than the 'passionate' Boro 'faithful'. 98135[/snapback] Or maybe the great mass of empty seats put them off, who knows

Tbh my heart says we'll win, but my head says we'll get torn apart, ah well here's to wishful thinking.

A couple of things, first of all they were away to Middlesbrough and secondly they only had their reserves out against Colchester and will no doubt stick their first team out against us. 98122[/snapback] It still shows that they're not as invincible as people make out. We knocked their 1st team out of the cup before didn't we? A good manager could get us at least a draw and set up a home tie at SJP But Steve Bruce would just play negatively and we'd get thumped. 98124[/snapback] I don't think there are any replys this round
