The Newcastle United thread

[Suprah]

Daaaaaaaaaah!! its been like that for 2 weeks? we both won this week, or is it that mancs are too good to look at the other side of the table?

Sunderland won that with virtually the last kick of the game

[roy]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!! Go MAGPIES!!!! you deserve it

Cheers man, I can relax now.
I've just seen the goals on MOTD, Martins's 4 was just Karimi style. did you see it? If we've been playing like that all season then we probably would have been fighting for top 6, watta waste big sam was, he F*cked two teams, us & Bolton for leaving them.

PS: 4-3-3 worked again for the 3rd game.

Martins goal was just beautiful.. but it all started from butt's goal right before end of first half, that just lifted the spirit and from there it was all newcastle in 2nd half. what a beautiful match that was, much much better then last weeks. they played more careless last week in my opinion compared to this weekend.

lets keep this positive spirit going booooooooooysss

Maldini 'Considering Newcastle Move'

AC Milan veteran Paolo Maldini has revealed he's mulling over whether to join English outfit Newcastle United in the summer after the Magpies made him an offer.

The 39-year-old defender has spent his entire career with the Rossoneri, but having said he would retire at the end of this season appears to be having second thoughts.

Wholesale changes are expected at Milan over the summer, however, with last weekend's 2-1 home defeat to Atalanta the final straw, and Maldini has been told he won't be appearing for the club next season no matter who the coach is.

Milan want to move towards more youthful players and it appears Maldini is willing to abandon his status as a one-club man in order to keep playing for another season.

Reports surfaced on Monday that Newcastle United had made the five-time European Cup winner an offer for next season, with boss Kevin Keegan feeling Maldini's experience could help sure up things in the Magpies' defence.

"It's true that Newcastle have been in touch," confirmed Maldini yesterday. "It's certainly an interesting offer and one I won't rule out just yet.

"My only regret in my career is that I've never had the chance to play abroad and this would be a terrific opportunity to play in the Premier League for a massive club," added the defender, who admits to being extremely impressed by Newcastle's run in last season's Intertoto Cup.

Bloody hell, for a moment there i thought Keegan went crazy.
Anyway, he said today that he'll buy 2 or three players only for next season and get rid of the useless (Smith, Carr, Duff, Cacapa, Ramage) ones and the ones who wanna leave (N'zogbia).

Why Alan Smith ?

Why Alan Smith ?

A forward who played 30 games, got over 15 yellow cards and one red, and never scored a single goal!! now thats what i call shite.
While Martins for example (who was benched by Big Sam) missed most of the season but is our top goals scorer.

I would say Blackburn are a decent side to challenge for a European spot only if they had shown consistency

Sparky's a good manager for them.

^^
Bentley will leave end of the season (trust me) to a top 4 club (i smell Liverpool) if Rafa goes, but they say he might end up here in Newcastle.
For me, i dont care where he goes, I just wanna see my team back in the top 6 then top 4 again within 3 years.

3 in 3, Newcastle 3 - Reading 0.

Agian, both Owen & Martins on target.
Easy win this time as we secure safety, Too bad the mackems won too.

On the other hand, Bolton, i feel sorry for them in a way (even tho the bastards never play Ando) as i know that the squad is better than most of the other teams arround them!! when they lost 4 nowt against villa they looked like they have throun the towel.
I hope Ando finds a new club in the prem or anywhere in europe.

[Ghormeh Sabzi]

what a great match that was. martinz is god and that one shot by joey barton when he shot the ball as it was coming down, that would've been an amazing goal if he would've made it in goal.


KEVIN KEEGAN WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!
