I think you can have as many loan players as you want, but you can only have a certain number in the squad.

Why Joe Hart? Harper is a perfectly fine mid-table Premiership keeper and Krul/Forster should be at the point where they can be relied on as dependable back-up. Harpers out of contract and is stalling on a new one - could very easily go from having 2 great keepers to having none

Nice cross from one of our wingers as well, Eh?

Fucking hell this ref is shit

8 this season apparently, and could have been a few more - Can only remember giving away 1 last at all last year, agaisnt Everton right at the end of the season

Was perfect quality for the adverts, as soon as the program kicked in it went to complete shit

Fuck sake Carroll misses a sitter and we pay the price right after

NUFC: Shay Given, Steven Taylor, Jose Enrique, Sebastien Bassong, Fabricio Coloccini, Danny Guthrie, Geremi, Damien Duff, Jonas Gutierrez, Michael Owen ©, Andy Carroll Subs: Steve Harper, Charles N'Zogbia, David Edgar, Tamas Kadar, Ryan Donaldson, Xisco, Kazenga LuaLua WHUFC: Robert Green, Lucas Neill ©, Herita Ilunga, Scott Parker, Craig Bellamy, Carlton Cole, Matthew Upson, Mark Noble, James Collins, Valon Behrami, Jack Collison Subs: Luis Boa Morte, Hayden Mullins, Julien Faubert, Diego Tristan, James Tomkins, David Di Michele, Marek Stech

Pretty sure Kinnear has said Carroll will get his first start.

Martins to have hernia operation Obafemi Martins Martins' strike against Portsmouth was his sixth goal of the season Newcastle United have confirmed striker Obafemi Martins will undergo a hernia operation in Germany on Monday. The 24-year-old Nigerian international will be operated on by specialist Dr Ulrike Muschaweck and is expected to be out of action for several weeks. Former Newcastle captain Alan Shearer and current players Michael Owen and Shay Given have previously been operated on by Dr Muschaweck. Martins suffered a groin injury in last month's 3-0 win at Portsmouth. He picked up the problem shortly before scoring the Magpies' second goal at Fratton Park. But he distanced himself from criticism of the club's medical staff attributed to one of his representatives, suggesting the injury had not been diagnosed quickly enough. 606: DEBATE Give your reaction to the news of Martins' operation Martins said: "I wish to make it perfectly clear that I have never criticised the medical team at Newcastle United, who all do an excellent job for the club. "All I am concentrating on is getting fit again as soon as possible so I can be back playing and helping the team." Martins' pending operation has only added to Newcastle's injury problems as he is one of eight players currently in the treatment room. The Magpies will also be without midfielder Nicky Butt for Saturday's clash with West Ham because of suspension.

There all out to get Owen today arent they.

Irons in the fire.. we've heard that one before

Lualua should get a good half an hour on in the 2nd half

A player thats been nothing but loyal for the last 11 years and is 1 season away from the all time appearance record coming out and saying this club is completely in the shit on and off the pitch isn't going to attract any players. This'll be a bad transfer window for us - we're currently scouting championship players and a good 3-4 first team players will be off. Got to love what this club has become

Won't be quite so humiliating now.

Here they come

Once the first goes in we'er in for a right rollocking

Read somewhere he'd get a scan for the Liverpool game, seems a bit optamistic though - Viduka and Enrique out for sure though, and as well as Ameobi and Martins I think.

He had a good couple of games but today he had one of those beyond shit games

Must be so fucking boring supporting other clubs, eh?

Should have left it for Given tbh

Its gone from Ex-ogbia to egg-zogbia, and he takes about 5 seconds bracing himself to pronounce soemones name

Better at it than Milner

Good times! Bassong suspended for Liverpool - beye'll be out, maybe Enrique as well. Martins and Ameobi out as well, and Viduka won't be up for starting the match. We'll be in for anotehr rollocking in a couple of days - is an abomination how shit this team is at times.
