OTF

BTW, I was thrilled to see how much I was missed by you absolute pricks when I eventually stumbled into the newcastle-online Toontastic thread, I just want to say from the bottom of my heart fuck you all.

Socks and slides, turns out he's not perfect.

Calling it a punch is a bit rich, but nowhere near as rich as us.

Yep, the fact that he carried on like that earlier is why he didn't getvthe penalty given IMO. Sign if a shit ref (and VAR too) but he/we missed out on multiple other free kicks as well because of his continued strop.

But still wouldn't be caught dead with a NUFC clock.

I wouldn't TBH always a risk signing players who are frequently only used as substitutes.

And tell them it drops by £1m every day they take to accept.

Posts like this are why we need toontastic.

If you do get wings I'd not recommend that you try that.

Inclined to agree, think we dodged a potential bullet with not getting Carlos.

Really depends what other options we can move on. I'd have him here as he should settle quickly and we need someone who can be put straight into the team.

Pretty sure I've seen Xisco, Luque, Colback, Saivet and Alan Smith in the background of some of the training photos. Finally time to move them on?

They may as well bend over for us now so that they can claim a Sunderland style buddy team relationship with us in the future.

I agree, they'll both fit in in their own way with superior offsiders, Shelvey more-so though as he tends to have good vision and will potentially benefit from more space and time on the ball.

Agreed, looking forward to the days when our players with ability don't come with one or more of the below caveats (feel free to add): - He's a cunt - He's a crock - He's a hog - He's lazy - He only turns up once in every 4 games

Wonder if he requested to stay on the bench to risk losing out on a massive pay rise. Once he's officially signed I will discount this theory as our new darling would never do something like that.

It will be nice having a midfield that isn't built on the "cheaper to keep the players we already have that we know are mediocre than buy new better players" methodology. Next stop Dwight Gale, Lascelles, Clark...

Hope he got through it alive.

And massive thanks Ant for all the work and money you've put in over the years, my family would probably hate me if I didn't have this forum to whinge about our dysfunctional club and rid myself of my horrible attempts at humour.

30 million rising to 45 if we win the Football Forum World Cup.

I publically retract my earlier statement about the French (privately it's still true though not relevant here).

I'm going to be positive and believe that he is indeed fascinated by the vision he's been shown, which is quite frankly exciting stuff even in the context of all these piss stained mattresses.

Burn is just a smokescreen to scare Sevilla into accepting our bid (I'd rather Burn tbh for this season).

Careful, they'll come out and state that reports that this is one last attempt to flush out more money are categorically false.
