that's it (until I find the ones I missed, not sure I am used to this kind of coverage, even last time around it didn't seem as big as this...)
There's a helluva lotta stuff in other papers/websites, too, Turbo. Way, way too much to collate.
Not sure if it’s been said elsewhere but
Taggart to brissy
Brissy release Gameiro and Oxborrow
Fitzgerald, Kamau & Tongyik to Wanderers
Muscat left City
all of these people are trash except Taggz but we have Roy so we good.Quote:

I'd just like to congratulate The Guardian on producing not one, but TWO articles about football in Newcastle without mentioning the term 'blue collar' and avoiding any references to coal.Quote:

Ivan can plug holes.
Roy can have a few games off next year we still good.
Don't waste spots and cash on Gamerio.
Not sure if I have said it already but thanks to TurbojetfireV8 for his good work posting links here throughout the season
I also appreciate TurbojetfireV* and their work. They've put in a terrific effort and publish articles links every day. It takes committment.Quote:

Well in Dave...

An argument can be made that Nabbout was just as effective up front this year as Roy was.Quote:

Ernie ain't playing that game.
I tend to agree with LRO.. I think Nabbout did a fine job up front, and he did pick up the role well. I think when Joey has played up front he has really struggled, and with Nabbout gone I would definitely be up for having another player capable of stepping into Roy's shoes if needs be. Whether that's a backup striker or a winger who can play up top as well.
Thanks mate.Quote:

Coaches, Administrators and players will come and go - the fans are the one constant.
It was a nice story to do
Never leave your team! I remember sitting there on a hot Sunday afternoon probably 6 years ago watching us lose to Perth Glory 4-0 and the crowd was maybe 4,000.Quote:

After 13 years as a member and 10 or so lean ones, I cannot explain this feeling! I’m not nervous yet as I still don’t quite believe it!
with only two roster spots left, getting a back-up striker is really dependent I feel on how you fill up the other attacking roles. Assuming we don't keep ronny and pato on, you've got Dimi & Roy as our two consistent starters in the front third. If you feel one of Hoff or Champness are capable of being starting XI from the jump, then you fill the other spot with a marquee and get a back-up striker who can fill in for roy. However, if you don't view them as starters and feel we need two more spots in the front, then you sign two starting wingers, maybe one of them can be a back-up striker if need me similar to nabbs, or you let one of hoff or champness try and be a striker
And that arguement would be pretty successful but if im not mistaken Nabbout now plays in Japan and Champness is not Nabbout?Quote:

If they are having 'that time of the season' then forget it, I've got better things to do.
Last Friday night was an awesome booty call.
Yeah but Nabbout wasnt Roy either and things worked out ok.Quote:

Joey became the new Nabbout when Nabbout became the new Roy who then became the new Nabbout making Nabbout the new Joey forcing Joey to become the new Hoffman who became the new Pato until Roy became the new Nabbout (who was the old Roy) pushing Nabbout back to being the new Joey who then became the new Nabbout (when he left for Japan) who can then become the new Roy unless Thurgate becomes the new Roy or if Roy remains the same Roy all season next year and we won't have to worry about any of it.Quote:

Yep , About as clear as our game plan under Jones. Sorry member but you know it to be true.
More importantly who is becoming the new Griffo??Quote:
