It was always going to be difficult for Riviere on his own up top. Whilst his final ball has looked uncultured his presence has improved as the match has progressed. That's obviously been encouraged by our collective improvement as a team. Impossible to judge him conclusively in a game this early or against such opposition so I'm simply looking for good indications.

Yeah. This was a nice sleeper surprise. His comment could have been a weak inside joke?
-
I'm all for nostalgic glamourisation, but that's truly foul. The sponsorship is integrated well though.
-
He's not without his own injury problems too.

I'm pretty over the grey kit (looks like a training kit), but what's the deal with the blue and green abomination? It's in direct opposition to the principle rule of fashion. Blue and green should not be seen without a colour in between.

If there was a guarantee that Taylor would be fit for an extended period of time it would be an easier decision to include him.

That could explain why they've been trialing Abeid in a defensive midfield ball recycling role, and perhaps (if you were particularly cynical) why we've seen so little of Tiote this pre-season.

Somehow just saw this. WTF!

Which of the "other 14" would you take the front line of?

I am too, but I'm worried that they won't all be able to get the time on the pitch required to see the best of them. Nevermind. I'm sure once I see some of them play more, I'll be convinced they're no good and won't want them on the pitch! Problem solved. -
Was about to post something similar HF. Typical of the club's short sighted short term approach to revenue. The image and profile of Newcastle United was admittedly on the decline before Ashley bought it, but it has accelerated at pace since. The one positive to this approach has been the somewhat sporadic ability to sniff out the purchase of good players at average player prices.

Obertan, the new Perchinho.

Are both to be loaned back? Saw an 'article' that suggested only Darlow (the keeper) would be loaned back?

Surely on the bench? We've got options in midfield but none like Remy (who aren't frozen out or young and unproven). I suspect it will be the usual suspects with De Jong if fit and Colback in midfield (Tiote, Sissoko, Gouffran).

Alan Pardew - Poltroon sacked by a forrin team
OTF replied to Kid Dynamite's topic in Newcastle Forum
Yes, but now his hand has been strengthened so he'll be able to change up areas other than left back!!! If we can't have a good manager can we at least have a sincere one.- 10610 replies

Cop Out was so so bad.

It really is. More so when your transfer policy is built around developing young players to sell on for a profit.
