jonas has not been playing for argentina as of late because of velez... AFA seek resolution over Gutiérrez Julio Grondona’s been in China recently, watching Argentina’s not-quite-Under 23s win Olympic gold, and he’s returned to a bit of a fuss. Alfio Basile named his squad for the next two World Cup Qualifiers last week (details of those players will follow before the matches, because at the time they announcement was overshadowed somewhat by the 3-0 thumping of Brazil in the Olympic Football Tournament), and it included Newcastle United’s new fan hero, Jonás Gutiérrez. El Galgo’s place in the squad is in doubt, though, after his former club Vélez Sársfield launched an appeal against his inclusion. Gutiérrez played for Vélez for four seasons, from 2001 to 2005, winning the Torneo Clausura in 2005 with the club before moving to Spanish islanders Real Mallorca. After three years with Mallorca, he made the move to England to join Newcastle in the (European) summer of 2008. Vélez, however, aren’t happy. They claim that Gutiérrez had a contract with them until 2009, meaning that after leaving Mallorca his registration should have returned to his previous club, and thus he should currently be playing for them, and not for Newcastle. Vélez don’t seem to be trying to force the player to actually come and play for them again, but are very put out at the possibility of Jonás playing for his country (and by extension his country’s football association) when the AFA aren’t supporting the club in their view that he is, in fact, a Vélez player. As such, whilst Grondona was in China, the AFA provisionally accepted a petition from Vélez to prevent Gutiérrez playing for Argentina - a position that was reversed as soon as Grondona returned home. Vélez president Alvaro Balestrini wasn’t shy about making his opinions known on Thursday, attacking the AFA vehemently: ‘We’re really worried, because this shows that the AFA are making cuckolds of Argentine clubs,’ Balestrini said, coming over all Shakespearean. ‘If this had happened with Boca or River, or even, I feel justified in saying, with Arsenal [de Sarandí, whose president is Grondona's son Julio Ricardo Grondona], this would have been resolved in another way.’ He may have a point… but then, Jonás really may be a Newcastle player… If Gutiérrez is called up by Basile for the two matches in the first half of September, it will be at Newcastle’s discretion, since he’s only been named as a backup player in the Argentina squad for these matches. http://hastaelgolsiempre.com/2008/08/28/af...over-gutierrez/

Nightmare: Keeg walks out after lack of signings...

i am part of that small crew...

gordon pegs one of his players in the wall after the goal with the ball...

Nah I love playing them, we have a gypsy curse playing against them I think, we could have the British paralympic team in black and white against Argentina in red and white and we'd still win. Bring on Sunderland. Tell me any proper derby rivals who haven't won at home to their enemy in 28 years. argument excepted...

i hope nottingham forest beats them tomorrow...

damn he is short to be getting his head on the ball so often...

refusing to hold the mic...

richard shaw looks gutted...

full time...

details???

97min - NEWCASTLE GOAL (2-3) City fail to clear a N'Zogbia corner to the safety of the opposition half. Enrique seizes the loose ball 40 yards out and clips a delightful pass over the top for skipper MICHAEL OWEN to race on to, the Toon No.10 takes a touch before finishing side-footed past the on-rushing Marshall to restore united's advantage.

fuck them... get in... owen

Why? Didn't look at him during the replays... did his feet, or one of his feet leave the ground as he threw it? at the time of the throw he has one foot planted and dragging the second... and then ends up planting both feet after crossing the line...

and at the 88min the announcer says there should not be much extra time...

90+2min - COVENTRY GOAL (2-2) Unbelievable! City win a throw in high on the right with Gunnarsson jettisons into the penalty area, skipper SCOTT DANN is arriving at pace to head low into the bottom corner with Shay Given rooted to the spot.
