You're forgetting the wingbacks

Tweeting private details of transfer negotiations does seem a bit bizzarre. That is temepered though with Auslas basically taking a club in some ways (population, acheivements) like ourselves and turning them into one of the best sides in Europe for a decade. The nearby coal town of St Etienne was always a football hotbed. Lyon is huge but mostly middle class, OL have been watched by 3 men and a dog for most of their history. Now theyre the biggest club in FRance by miles.They invented the cinema there whilst their neighbours were dying in the mines 40 miles away. It is quite an acheivement for the Paul Daniels-looking freak.

Only with you though....because you keep singling Pardew when he quite patently is only a sympton, not the cause. So I guess we're similar in that regard, only I can recognise where the real problem lays and you just stick your fingers in your ears and shout "LALALAALA I'M NOT LISTENING!!!!!" You want a better coach, so do I tbh..... Ashley wont pay for one though, that is the fundamental problem. And his alternative to Pardew is a horror show.But you keep poking Pardew with a stick, I just dont get anyone singling out Pardew. Its either the words of of simpleton or a wind up.

Honestly, I dont know what to say..even after the appointment of Kinnear you still wont accept what the real problem at the club is...well, on here anyway

Dont they all now work for Ryanair?

So you're looking forward to "Kinnear 2: The Return of the King" then CT? ...the whole regime aren't fit for purpose and you're saying that if Pardew isnt capable of getting the best out of players he has little say in choosing then his failure is his own fault, with no blame attached to anything else?...

The tories think their disaffected core vote will be placated by this. Ed Milliband is a shop dummy with a pulse. We're all fucked.

reported

I think he's under more pressure with Kinnear no doubt telling tales to Mike behind his back. Sacked before Christmas iyam.

Agreed. I'd tell Bale not to take any notice of these fuckin wanks and to read Steve Mcmanaman's book. Just the 2 European Cup winners medals...just by learning the language asap and then playing well. The former helped the latter.

So his interviews on appointment as DoF didnt convince you that hes a raging pisshead Scoobos?....

As I've said before, Stuart Pearce for Forest did both without breaking sweat, so did John Beresford for us. Both were fullbacks. But lets not open that can of worms again...

Aahh!...a wingback??!!

the question you should be asking is "are any of you in the England supporters club?" tha answer I imagine is no as its bad enough following fuckin Newcastle let alone another bunch of overpaid cock ends...and as for the England side...

Err...thought I read 12 something last week, could be wrong, I'll just get me coat.. Your thinking is very logical, but that sort of money for a player who can go for free next summer is unrealistic to say the least and all clubs in for him will know this.

They want £12 mill for a player in the last year of his contract:

Didnt we finish 3 places below where we were on the 1st of Feb though?...that means ££££££££££s to Ashley..

and who's favourite to be appointed the next manager of NUFC?

Where's Ben Arfa? Ben & Jerrys?.....

Funny feeling this one isnt down to Wenger....maybe after all the shit in the press about "6/7/8 years without a trophy" his employers have pulled rank on him and undermined the bloke with this one. Could be the beginning of the end for him at AFC. Some people are never satisfied.

Try telling Ashley. I actually agree with him, hes not worth 8mill regardless of the time left on his contract iyam. But I'd be very surprised if theyve got an alternative target.

Theres one year left on his contract, see the Debuchy deal last year. Ashley in the past has been praised for walking away if the deal isnt to his liking. With a year to go on his contract he's worth nowhere nearly 8mill iyam. Trouble is there is almost certainly no alternative target and either he'll go to one of the other clubs in for him or we may get him in January. Thats the Ashley way.

Films out soon
