    Newcastle United

    Hadn't realised the previous thread died in The Great Fuck Up of 2015.

    Tim Krul injured tonight, Darlow's foot is in a protective boot and our best youth 'keeper is out on loan. For fuck sake. It's Fatty Elliott time again.

    Found this when clearing up my stuff ready for my move. What a shambles, one of the better youth teams that the club has had for years and only one player ever managed to hold down a proper first team place - Dummett.



    Saying that, who the fuck are those Villa players?

    Samir Carruthers was a favourite on the old board for his absurd name.

    James Tavernier. Spanked in another free kick last weekend. That's nine goals in fourteen games.

    That is properly ridiculous. If he reaches 20 goals from fullback

    It's a shame for all concerned that Vuckic didn't sign on for your lot. He's now just wasting his time/being injured at Wigan.

    Tim Krul got injured for Holland the other night against Kazakhstan, and he's been ruled out for the rest of the season with a torn cruciate ligament:

    Time for Pavel Srnicek to do the biz and return.

    On derby weekend, it's only apt that Shola Ameobi has signed for a new club. He's going to be pairing up with Emile F'N Heskey at Bolton:

    Nigerian international pens short-term at Macron Stadium following recent trial


    Bolton Wanderers have completed the signing of Shola Ameobi on a short-term deal.

    The Nigeria international joins the club on a free transfer having recently spent time on trial with the Whites.

    Most recently on the books at Premier League side Crystal Palace, the 34-year-old enjoyed a brief stint in Turkey at Gaziantep BBB last season having spent the majority of his career at Newcastle United.

    A member of the Newcastle side that won the Championship in 2009/10, the forward also previously enjoyed a loan spell in the second tier with Stoke City during their 2007/2008 promotion-winning campaign.

    Formerly an England Under 21's international, he was a member of the Nigeria squad that reached the knockout stages of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, making two substitute appearances as the Super Eagles suffered a second round exit.

    Ameobi will wear the number 26 jersey for the duration of his stay at Macron Stadium

    Tavernier is on eleven goals now. He'll definitely manage twenty, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him closing in on thirty by the end of the season.

    Vuckic stood out primarily because he was playing with shit last season, I think. We essentially have a better version of him for this season in Nathan Oduwa, with the flicks and tricks and languid style and utter refusal to track back unless atoning for a mistake he personally made.

    Also, for the half million Newcastle were supposedly after for him we signed Tavernier, Martyn Waghorn,and Jason Holt with cash to spare, so we came out ahead in that deal.

    Freddie Woodman is playing in goal for the U21's tonight - he should be able to recover before Saturday dinnertime, but is that a hint we've got the heads up from the PL for a spare keeper?

    Also playing are Massadio Haidara, Jamaal Lascelles, Kevin Mbabu and Siem de Jong.

    Haidara went off injured in the first half (groin) and Mbabu has just been subbed off with some kind of shoulder injury.

    Looks like we've found our replacement for Toney and Armstrong, once they're sold for £20m each. 16 year old striker called Mauro Severino had a trial and scored a hattrick.

    I like Steve. We're playing better stuff than we were under Pardew. However, it is sadly getting to the point where that doesn't matter. There's so much talent out there but Mitrovic, Perez, Sissoko, Wijnaldum, Thauvin and the rest need to stop fucking shitting themselves in front of goal. We haven't scored in over 400 minutes, and that last goal was Coloccini.

    Henri Saivet, then. Not a wonderkid winger anymore, but a tough tackling centre mid.

    Apparently there's a decision coming soon. I feel like we're hoping for a honeymoon to nick a win over Norwich and a fluke 0-0 against the mackems. I'd even fancy Villa to do us in current mood.

    If Benitez takes over Newcastle there surely can't have been many bigger single-season falls from grace. Start out managing Real Madrid, end taking Newcastle down.

    Not really a fall from grace given his post-Liverpool management. Seems like a proper merc who lands top jobs on past reputation. Like Patrick Kluivert or Hugo Viana. None of the available options fill me with confidence because we've still got that squad.

    It's the same as when we're linked to Aubameyang and Lacazette "WE TRIED!!" and then we actually end up getting Riviere.

    Daryl Janmaat broke two fingers punching the wall when he came off injured, accordingly to the Chronicle.

    It's not going to rule him out of Swansea but the groin injury might.

    I'm sort of over us getting relegated now, and I'm looking forward to clearing the squad out and getting some new blood in. It'll be interesting if we dig our heels in on players like Wijnaldum and Mbemba, who are on long contracts and stuff like that.

    Lascelles called them all out in the dressing room apparently and then went to the press to say we need players who actually care.

    Sack them all and make him captain.

    I see Newcastle have been found guilty in the Jonas Gutierrez case, they are getting a lot of stick in the media.

    Looking at this from the outside, I don't see how they have treated him differently to any other injured player.

    - Player got dropped due to injury
    - Team moves on without him
    - Player struggles to get back in the team
    - Club realises that player is close to triggering extension clause, so don't play him.

    Am I missing something - obviously it's horrible that he had cancer, but you have to surely look at this as with any other mid-long term injury?

    Nobody batted an eyelid when Blackburn stopped playing Jason Roberts for the same reason before they eventually let him go and he had to bum around at Reading for a bit.

    Parts of John Carver's evidence were "vague" and "rejected"
    Did he think it was a press conference?

    Former Newcastle boss Alan Pardew "was able to deliver his evidence in a confident, convincing and articulate way".
    "I'm not the one on trial here."

    Well he wasn't treated like 'any other injured player' at all. He played in almost every game before the diagnosis. If you have someone who is a very regular starter get injured, you normally give them a chance to come back. Instead the club made sure he didn't as they didn't want to risk a cancer sufferer earning an extra year on his contract if they started him.

    It's not quite the 'he couldn't get back in the team, so they thought "fuck it"' picture you're painting, though I do definitely understand what you're getting at.

    It's certainly a dodgy precedent to set, but there's no doubt the club treated someone who had served the club for years like a piece of shit, so fuck them.
