    What I do think is odd is that confirmation of his coming here is from the Newcastle manager, seemingly before his successful medical ?

    Last season we bought a lot of youngsters and no experience to go with them and it cost us so I don't mind them adding a bit of experience.

    That's good enough for me. Russell knows him a lot better than any of us.

    You’ve missed out Perraud and Larios
    So hard to keep track of them all

    I have no problem with Fraser. Always looked good against us. I just have a problem with what the signing may mean in terms of outgoings. I see Martin STILL has no sense of who will stay.

    I hate this window. The biggest fish in this league are whipping boys to everybody in the league above.

    And yet the three promoted sides all stayed up last season.

    From our perspective, that was from incredibly poor management from the top down.

    Remove us and Everton would have taken our place.

    Which is what happens when an elite are left to their own devices for a long time. They rot in their complacency,

    Despite being awful we were able to splurge more money than most of the leagues of Europe combined. We were a big fat lump of a club.

    Whoops, I had accidentally put KWP in at LB initially, and then solved that by cloning him.

    Bit of a diver at Bournemouth, should get the penalty count up a bit more. See, it's not all negative.
