    I used to think he was ok but I've been spoiled with Mendy.

    No worries ... Ndidi was playing centre back before his injury ... and he looked to be close to full fitness tonight ... <cheers>

    Ndidi & Fluffana at centre half, strikers will be terrified.

    Have you curled yourself out of Peejay’s arse or have you gone all the way through and come out of his mouth? Can’t figure it out.

    He's 19 ffs <doh>... got rave reviews from most of the pundits in his first few games and has since made a couple of mistakes ... he's still learning English ... I remember Rio Ferdinand's debut for Leeds at ours... got spanked 3-0 and Gerry Taggart scored 2 headers from set pieces... he went on to have a pretty good career

    Boy will be a fabulous player ... Big Wes says so ... and he should know ... he plays the game, you play footie forums ... and are obviously having a hard time accepting that you needed to bring in a 50 year old Uruguayan coz Mason Greenleaf ain't all that <laugh>

    Fosse face plants his own **** again <laugh>

    Rio Ferdinand - possibly the best centre half the PL has ever seen, on Mason Greenleaf:

    "He’s a player with absolutely huge potential and I think he’s going to go right to the top."

    But Fosse, who ‘plays footie forums’ thinks he’s ****e.

    Take the Buuuuuuuuuuurn old boy <laugh>

    The salient difference being, that by the time Leeds paid record money for Ferdinand he’d played over 120 games for West Ham. You’ve signed this kid for mega bucks off the back of half a season in a ****e League. He might go on and be a great player, or he might not. He’s done precisely nothing yet.

    So its confirmed now then? Is it right that Staveley’s share has gone down to 5% or was that just a problem with cutting two equal pieces from a round loaf?

    Exactly. I can never remember Newcastle winning anything. As a lad I always use to think of them as the team that were likely to be runners up, but never winners.

    They bring to mind two players, such as Malcolm MacDonald simply because he played for England and Alan Kennedy who left them to win trophies at Liverpool. Alan Kennedy would never have won anything if he hadn't of left them.

    The North East has two massive clubs but when compared with Merseyside or London they are insignificant regarding any collection of silverware. So much so, I think I'm right in saying little ole West Ham have won the FA Cup three times since Newcastle last won it.

    In fact when thinking of the two North East clubs, the only one that gets any recognition from me is Sunderland and Bob Stokoe, he played for Newcastle all his career but chose Sunderland their greatest rivals, to manage. <laugh>

    On the latter points, you are correct ... at this point.... but on the back of over 50 years of watching players coming through our ranks ... I'm more than happy to predict a very bright future for this kid <cheers>

    Nothing changed. Newcastle never win, maybe promotion, but is that something to boast about.
