Gribz

Ince obviously thinks he can do a job for them. Will be interested to see him, hopefully he does well. Come on the Cardiff, stump up 3.5 million for Boyd and make Jons weekend

Depends who we sign Pete. Im with you about Ferguson, but right now im thinking Dailly, Hemdani and Thomson are all to defensive and I dont know enough about Furman. I dont class Ferguson in the attack mode either TBH. But with BF's faults he still takes the mantle at times. My fear isnt also with the loss of Ferguson, I'll be interested to see how we play, but my fear is the total lack in depth now. I was wondering what would happen if someone picked up an injury during the season, now BF is out it could be a blessing to force the hand and sign someone. With hindsight now, having Buffel, Hemdani and Thomson would have worked a treat with 2 wide players.

Hearts are a mess, They are looking at Uganda'a Hungarian coach to take over. How did they manage to think that one up!! It wouldnt surprise me one bit if they are fighting relegation this season.

What your reasons be Craig? Obviously attitude has to be one. But Cousin on his day is a quality striker and can play upfront on his own. If he gets a kick up the ass then he'd be in my team ahead of all the strikers at Ibrox.

I kinda agree with the PLG comment about hard tackles in training especially at this time of year when everyone is rusty. That goes for all teams IMO. But for S Smith it is yet another set back and you do have to wonder if he will not only get a run in the team again but get back to a high standard. Papac did well last season so I have no worries about him playing there. Whittaker also looked more comfortable at LB so thats the alternative but then we need to find a RB.

The other thing is who will stand in as captain - Surely King Carlos!!! I think the one thing that we will miss with Ferguson is a pressence. So it is a good chance for Thomson to step up. It could also mean we see the 06/07 version of Hemdani again which would be good. If those 2 could form a partnership and we can get 2 attacking wide players then things would look good. As much as I though BF should have been dropped last season I was hoping he would be 100% this season and now that he is actually out for a while I kinda fear a bit.

I actually think Ferguson plays a better role for Scotland as he plays a more central midfielder with more adapable players around him. He doesnt play too far forward or too deep. Most Scotland games are one-off and its probably easier to raise your game in bigger occasions. But we did play quite good football the last 2 times Ferguson has been out, but now that its been picked up we will probably suffer. But at least he wont be pushing forward like last season as he wasnt good in that role. But he have to sign a player or 2 now.

If he had gotten over his last injury then its a blow. I was hoping for a fully fit Ferguson this season. But it will be interesting to see what happens. 4 months is huge and we will have to go out and sign somebody now. We were wondering what would happen if Thomson or Ferguson got injured and now we have a chance to buy someone. Hemdani or Dailly are capable of stepping in for a defensive role next to Thomson and Furman may get a chance. If we have Davis aswell then things will look a bit better but we have to go out and sign someone now.

FIne for me today

I think WS would sell Boyd in a flash but Ally would keep him. I can still see an offer being accepted for him and if we can get 3 million then thats good. We dont need to be on the look out for strikers at the moment unless Boyd, JCD and Cousin all depart. The Cousin situation has been quiet for a while now. His attitude still stinks but if he is a still a Gers player come the end of the transfer window then I wouldnt be upset as long as he sorts that attitude out.

Thats a good signing for them, he can score goals in that league for fun. Id have liked him at Gers a few years ago

Hleb was just coming good as a player last season. His first season you could see what Wenger was trying to do with him but he was adjusting to the game, now he has done that (thanks to Wenger) he wants away. I think Arsenal at full strength with Rosicky and Hleb in the team would have won the league last season. But they have bought the French boy in (nasri??) and replaced him already. If they get 30 million for Adebyeor thats superb - just go and bring Henry back for less than half that!!

Hleb is obviously being a cock and just trying to get his move away from the club. His view on football doesnt coincide with Wenger??? He must be 1 in 10 million then. Wenger has done wonders for Hleb's career and Wenger knows more about football than most. To have a bite at Fabregas is just bitter jealously and obviously just to aid his move. Hleb you

Lost me there!!

I hope that was copy and paste Pete

You might want to express that with the use of other smilies rather than roll eyes and saying FFS. I certainly wasnt the only one who misinterpretated it like it was

Yeah it amazingly jumped out of the hi-jackers bag or pocket upon impact, jumped out of the plane, avoided the fires and explosion and managed to land neatly on the pavement then escaped the rumble of exploded concrete and was picked up the next day! Who writes these things but more importantly people believe it :fish:

I pretty much agree with that but WS has pulled out some signings before and the one thing that the club have done on occasion is pull things out of the blue without anyone having a sniff. Whats the story with Peter Lovenkrands - On or off??

If he isnt in the plans then he should be told to move on. I think he should have been tried at the minimum then we would all have a clearer opinion on him.

Loving the one with Hateley, Coisty, Cooper, Gazza, Gough and Laudrup

Agreed. Im actually wearing a hooped polo t shirt today, its dark navy with Blue thin hoops - I think il go home and bin it. I'll also throw out my blue and white one I have aswell because I shouldnt be owning that!!.

If Furman doesnt go out on loan then id like to see him get more games this season. If he does go then Hemdani could be an important player if BF or KT gets injured. Id actually still like to see Hemdani get back in the team and go further up the park more.

When?? Just because some fake video clip of him from about 10 years ago was on the corporate controlled media saying he was then that PROVES it was him? He must be an outstanding terrorist to not only carry out all what happened but shut down the US defence system and NORAD that day aswell.

I dont believe Crouch is getting 70k a week. A higher power must be shining on him or something becuase for him to get that is ridiculous. The 11 million price tag is probably 50% too high but the wages are crazy.

He hasnt been caught because there has been no attempt to catch him contrary to the claims from the corporate controlled mainsteam media. Last time he was seen was in an Amercian hospital in Dubai to receive treatment on his liver. His sidekicks have reported to have claimed guilt to some attacks but Im not sure if I believe anything that comes from Guatamula Bay due to the torturing that goes on there etc. But not one of them has had any fair trial in court. But this has nothing to do with Newcastle and personally I dont see a problem with the family buying the club.
