I really enjoy the transfer window, means a team has to prepare for a season (well, half) rather than buying and selling as and when they get an injury etc. I would much prefer it closed a week before the season starts, but from an entertainment side it is great. I can see where the article is coming from, but if somebody is out of contract then they can sign whenever they please, and if someone is in contract then surely the windows are more than enough time to move on if you really need to

gutted I'm missing this! had a visit from family back home over the past couple of days and took them to Kings Cross to get a train back to Newcastle - very tempted to jump on it and hide in the luggage rack! Just checking, but this isn't on the box tonight, is it?

I used to defend hugo Viana a bit thinking he was going to come good. I see he's just singed for a team in Dubai so looks like he's come good after all!

fuckaduck the latest episode was good!

Just gave it a proper listen, really good album. I never minded Suck it and See, i'm a fan of some of the slower tripier songs they had on this, some sounded great live too this year when i caught them at Glaostonbury. I do agree that AM is an improvement, its a great album! the two albums play great back to back.

Nothing guilty there like, some good music. Looking forward to their album coming out in a couple of weeks.

never seen this thread before; just opened it up to see the non-italic, no SD logo'd East Stand and thought for a second they had taken all of it down along with the paint-over job on the roof...... that high lasted for about 1/2 a second before seeing the date.....

A decision that will destroy you from the inside one you've watched SUAPTH! To have been at the NY gig, that would have been unbelievable, but I'm sure any dates on the tour would have been pretty amazing!

Great clip, its when you see highlights like that when you remember how fast paced and exciting the premier league used to be. The man is a grade A Bellend, but put the effort in when he played and you can imagine the piss boiling inside him when Dong-Won pulled out of that header against Palace! :lol: Barton and Shearer to make peace and break the guy in two please!

Could watch them all day, great stuff!

Agreed, as I'm sure most would. While our first team is defiantly stronger than this time last year, our second is weaker with the departures over the summer and no replacements. Really looking forward to seeing our attacking intent over the coming games, hopefully they keep injury free and we can have a run of games for them to gel together.

Carlton Cole failed his medical at West Ham. Expecting a picture of him at the Newcastle training ground shortly.

fair enough, thanks for the reply anyway, hope your module is running ok, best check on it.

starting swimming over the last couple of weeks at my local pool (by that i mean I haven't swam regularly in ages, i CAN infact swim, my shorts would tell you that if you seen me at the pool, covered in all my badges n that). Really enjoying it, going first thing in the morning and its a great way to wake up and feel fresh ready for the day. Going to sign up tomorrow for a membership to keep myself going back, otherwise once the darker mornings kick in i'll prefer the comfort of bed at 6.30am.

What do people think of Ross Barclay? if he improves at his current rate then he could well be a future candidate for a regular start. I caught the long highlights of the first game of the season for everton against norwich, very powerful player considering his age and a great shot on him. Thing is, there has been so many promising youngsters in recent years who have just drifted off the radar after a year or so, hopefully martinez progresses him well and he can be a mainstay in the England setup in a few years time.

Please let this be true. Pardew, show us you have balls for a change!

Say Remy has a fit full season, we finish mid table and he sneaks into the France squad (big if), can you really see him wanting to return to Loftus Road to ply his trade? I know all of the 'if' would make QPR even more reluctant to sell as they would want him back in their squad, but I'm sure we'd stand a good chance if going in for a permanent deal should the price be right. actually scrap that, when will the price ever be right for us!?

JFK is apparently in France 'on business'. Joe, the window shut yesterday you faaakin clown, you're 'job'is done. now return to Newcastle to collect you're P45 and be on your way. I owe you a pint for this, Mike.

Finished cooking our Beef jerky yesterday, man it was good! Simple to make but makes for an amazing snack, only thing was we didn't make anywhere near enough!

watched the Talking Bad episode for this week, where they had RJ Mitte on (WW junior) and he said a similar thing about it been pretty much misery from here on in.

Soon to be delving into the bargin bucket for a free-transfer that 'has been in our sights for a long time'

I'm surprised the copy and paste didn't leave a date on it, 16/06/13
