Holden McGroin 6785 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Desperately need a left back and probaly a right back over a cb tbh. Moore, Bramble, Rambo and tayls will do okay there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw's Juggernaut 0 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Wouldn't mind seeing Phillip Lahm at left back, but he is out of our price range now Fred has said we are going to spend a majority of what little money we have on attacking players. Also I think the spurs are interested in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish Mag 3 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 The thought of going into next season with our existing centre halfs is frightening.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigsaw's Juggernaut 0 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I don't know. We definately need to ship JAB out. But Moore looked fairly solid apart from all the bookings. And Bramble seemed to do well when he played next to him. And we've got Steve Taylor to come back. Ramage doesn't seem to be doing well though.

Isegrim 9906 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Huth has just confirmed in a press conference that he is going to sign for 'boro. He said - without naming names - that he did talk to other clubs, but felt they already had about 4-5 other central defenders and he feared he might remain second choice just like at Chelsea. Nice description about Middlesbore though, when asked about moving there. "The town itself isn't a nice place to live, but there are other places in the north that are actually quite nice."

skhwoody 0 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I have just got back from my hols and noticed this piece of news, i am sorry but he is better than at least two of the CB we have, yes we need players for the left and right, but i cannot believe we have let a good player like huth going to boro and a cheap i will bet. smacks of another brilliant piece of work for NUFC. Track a player for season after season and when he is available say we have good enough quality there. NOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo 175 Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Defender moves mooted for Magpies 2006-06-11 17:52 Newcastle United are being strongly linked with a move for Preston North End defender Tyrone Mears. The exciting full-back is a target of seven Premiership clubs and Magpies boss Glenn Roeder is reportedly ready to table a £3million bid for the player. Meanwhile Newcastle defender Stephen Carr could be heading out of St James's Park, according to recent media claims. West Ham United and Charlton are both said to be interested in the 29-year-old, who is reportedly keen on moving back to the capital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Boro are re-tooling the 'smart one - brick shithouse' combination at the back. Out with Southgate and Ehiogu, in with Riggot and Huth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
