From this time l;ast season, we've lost 4 first choice players and not adequetly replaced even one of them. The football fucktard's fucktard Paul Merson has tipped us for the drop and if that gurning gibbon* can see whats going on then I imagine if we're on the other end of a loss this afternoon there may be a few chants of "wheres the money gone?" ringing round SJP later on *apologies to all sane,rational,intelligent and non gurning gibbons reading this thread.

No Shola, Best and Lovenkrands starting

Jimmy Saville.....fuckin old pervert

Certainly looks that way atm. Joey manipulated this situation but only when the door was shut in his face. I remember him saying last season that he'd sign a new deal if Nolan did. I think theyve both tried to keep the fans onside but at the end of the day they both left for more money than they wouldve got if theyd stayed and sucked it up, and both gone to (smaller) clubs they'll never feel the same way about as they seemingly do about us. More non local ex players eulogise about the support at NUFC than at any other club I can think of. Mick Quinn almost had an on air row with Adrian Durham once when he questioned Quinn's claim that we were "a special club" They don't fuckin understand, Quinny and countless others who have done well for us do, but in this day and age money talks and loyalty walks. We're the only truly loyal ones.

Stoke's europa league group: Group E: Dynamo Kiev Besiktas Stoke Maccabi Tel-Aviv Are Kiev the only ones to have been officialy in Europe for more than 50 years? .....either way its a minimum 4 hour flight to all of them...cant see the "naughty 40" rampaging across any of those cities...would be an education for them mind....Jewish Tel Aviv, secular muslim Istanbul and ex communist Ukraine....nice mix...fuckin expensive though.

Think the article is overstating the case a bit tbh. If I go half a mile down the road on Sunday to watch the Manu v Arsenal game theres a fair chance I'll see Darren Anderton enjoying a bottle of bud in his local*...it used to be my local too until they started letting the likes of that cunt in When KK played for Southampton he lived in the same area. According to an old work collegue he used to go to a spit-and-sawdust boozer in Bournemouth called The Strouden where he was alledgely lancing the wife of one of the regulars. My mate reckons there was a bit of a row between the two one day (KK was in there with Alan Ball) which really kicked off when KK shouted across the bar "yeah your missus isnt a bad shag once you get passed the used bit!" * Its not all top quality international footballers in there....Herman Hereidsson uses it too

aye its a good read....what Quinny and his Pompey teamates got up to was like the worst piss head sunday league team...they went to Jersey on a pre season tour and within 3 hours of getting there the authoroties were approaching the manager Alan Ball, sat having a quiet meal in a restaraunt, saying that they wanted the team to leave island that night!

Quinny was class, gave his all too...played on one leg at Wolves when Kevin Scott got the winner, smashed his knee against a post completely knacking his season (and eventually his Newcastle career) at Pompey...but for me he wasnt in the same class as a finisher as Andy Cole during his time here. Forget his Man Utd troubles with Cantona and all his subsequent success there, at Newcastle he was phenomonal...55 goals in 70 games. If Keegan and Hall transformed the club, then Andy Cole was responsible on the pitch for putting their ambitions into effect more than any other player iyam.And in turn he's chiefly reponsible how we ourselves began to perceive the club and in turn how the rest of the country did. Can't think of another player we could have conceiveably attracted in 1993 who couldve acheived the same.

Joey could always publicly apologise to ashley for abusing 'our beloved leader' if he really wanted to stay....dont think i'll hold my breath on that one mind ;-)

Blatantly playing to the crowd ie us. Theres no way hes having medical as a free transfer and not signing.

Now Deano So I hear....did you pozzies hatch this cunning plan in an attempt to fool the rest of us into thinking theres dozens of you?

he's now Deano mate Is he?! I shouldve guessed really......he's consistent, I'll give him that

Tiote's Nutz hasnt been on in a while.....was it a flounce?

Welcome Weldy, couldnt agree more

Pen to the guineas....Vermalen booked, fuck me the Gooners sausage roll keeper has saved it!

One each in Udine.....Van Persie just eqialised di Natale's opener, half and hour left...

Nice gaff, but I'd imagine theres a ma-hoosive hatstand hidden somewhere

Exactly. Could be argued that the team spirit is one of the things holding the club together at the moment. Removing another major part of it can only cause problems. How many leaders do we have on that pitch now? Taylor? Shola? Coloccini? You think Barton is part of what creates the good team spirit? Someone who's moaning in and around training as well on on twitter. Cant do any good for team spirit in my opinion. Let him go and lets see Marveaux and Jonas on the wings. Anyone else you wouldnt mind getting rid of while we're at it?.....especially for nowt if you can swing it?......

The thing about Barton is he really does give it the "great fans" shite all the time...it is naiive to think he was going to stay after being given a "get of jail free card" by the fools at the top but he said in May when he had the rug pulled from underneath him in the negotiations that he'd stay to the end of his contract. Things have changed, but he fuckin engineered it himself if you ask me by attacking the club on twitter.Barton and his agent knew that was going to end with the club getting rid of him. He and Mckay probably thought someone would come in with a 2 or 3 mill bid for the last year of his contract. But the "businessmen" have let a transfer fee slip through their hands and given him the perfect oppurtunity to stay onside with the fans. I just don't buy it tbh. He wanted out this summer, not next after saying in public the opposite. In some ways I can't blame him at all, but its down to the player himself and his agent. Bottom line is he is needed here this season. He's highly unlikely to be replaced because we have two free transfers and a youth team graduate who may be able to fill his boots but all three have question marks about their fitness. It may all work out fine, one of Gosling, Merveux or Vukic may be step up and do brilliantly. But its just another massive gamble yet again by Ashley. And he's lost out on a transfer fee because he's been fuckin played for a fool (no surpise there) by Barton and Mckay iyam.

Because Willie Mckay is a cunt....and another thing I bet Barton wouldnt buy a copy of the Sun but doesnt mind getting into bed with its more respectable younger sister Sky tv. For someone who wants to portray a thoughtful, intelligent image he's not exactly shy about this is he? He could stay, see out his last year but the utter stupidity at the top of the club has given him the right to claim 'they dont want me' which is true. Its also true that if he wanted to do well by the only people in this country who defend him in any way then he could still stay. But I guess he's been a professional footballer too long to start thinking of supporters now...

I think he goes to The Gorbals for his hols but he's not technically Scottish. Worrying that we're linked with him today by the way. Yeah I saw that too...sounds like his agent is casting via the tabloids to see if anyone takes the bait.... Just one cornetto Give it to me His dad was in ice cream His names _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I got locked out of the Swindon game, was fuckin gutted for weeks after...

Ex mackem oxygen theif Sulley Muntari? :-D

Theyre away to Swansea at the weekend and then home to Chlesea.........is it too optimistic to suggest if they draw a blank in those two that he's fuckin toast? Just seen the goal...great header by Mackail Smith

Aye, really going out on a limb there mate Theres only been 6 world cups, SA and the Aussies have won 2 each...SA have only competed in 4 due to aparthied so am going for them...the Afrikaaners have a winning mentality that NZ lack if you ask me. And the pressure NZ be under in the modern media age (87 was basically the stone age when it comes to coverage) in their own back yard will be huge and they'll bottle it (again!) iyam.

My err "cousin"* Chris is playing in his 4th world cup for Scotland. Ner ner ner ner ner * Well, I say cousin....we have a mutual ancestor from sometime around 1900
