Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

Excellent bit of business if we manage to get both of them. Four strong, solid prem experienced centre backs then when botman back fit. Five/six if you include burn and lascelles. Will eventually need a younger replacement for Schar, but that can be put on the back burner for a few years with Adarab...

Re: Weekend football - 13/15 April 2024

I've been doing some rough numbers in my head and 6th will be the best we can get. Spurs have a very tough run in but will beat us by a point for 5th. Unless they go all Spursy. Yeah, I think we can get p6 looking at the run in. I can see Man U getting 10 more points from Sheffield Utd, Burnley, Pa...

I'm torn between happy Liverpool lost and sad that I've got Alisson, Konate, Salah and Jota in my draft team, and I swapped Eze for Olise. If anything I won that game for Palace.
You have the thanks of a grateful nation.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Spurs

Just seen a stat that Isak is the first Newcastle player to score 20 goals a season in all competitions combined since Shearer in 2003/04. Technically that's discounting Gayle because it was in the second division <whistle> Nevertheless, a good stat, and can see why we want to build the future arou...

It's called working weekends lads. 👍 But I'm glad me having my own opinion has gotten under your skin so much <laugh> With that in mind, obviously when you've had a chance to catch up with highlights/match report etc, what would your opinion be about today Personally I think the team looked well dr...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Spurs

Looks like it's a three/five at the back with Anderson and Murphy as wingbacks, pushing forward when in possession. Looking positive so far

If it helps I got back from Tunisia last night <laugh> going to be strange being sat at lunch time without a beer and looking at the rain. The match is my only highlight haha What's Tunisia like? I enjoyed it. Was warm and sunny without being unbearable, about 28 at the peak. Hotel was okay but wou...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Spurs

I really like the idea of this 'sound shirts' they are bringing out for deaf supporters. Not sure how it works, but looks a really great idea. Good to see a different sponsor as well, even if it is a one off.

3-1 Newcastle

Re: Football Titbits

Liverpool 3-0 down at home to Atalanta - lovely! Should have had more flags. Whilst I do agree with fan protests in general, I feel there's a lot more to protest than a 2% increase. Considering how much everything in general has gone up. I work in a very underfunded sector, and was pleasantly surpr...

Re: Football Titbits

Neville mentioned something on the Overlap about how in league 2 a club can spend whatever they like as long as the owner puts the money in up front to cover the cost of the outgoing spend. It just makes so much sense. If an owner can afford to and is willing to put their money in then just let the...

Re: Joelinton set to sign new deal

Glad that this will be one more position we may not have to invest in - although I still think we need to recruit a proper CDM. I think Bruno, Big Joe and Tonali have the makings of a good midfield 3, however none of them are true defensive midfielders and I only think they could cover us with the ...

Still the best first press conference in football history
The only reason I'll ever remember who Simon Bird is.

As mentioned above, whilst his time here may not be remembered well, hopefully he is. Rest well.

Re: Yankuba Minteh

Scored twice and got an assist against Ajax today <notbad> Hugely impressive season…does he get a chance here next season or loaned out? What’s his actual position? If he plays off the right then there’s definitely a route into the first team for him next season. On the left no, as Gordon and Barne...
