Mental illnesses are usually closer to home than most people think because mental illnesses are often hidden by the sufferer. I have learned to live with my mental illness and I know how hard it can be to admit to the World that you need and want help. I want to help other people who live a...

You've changed the focus point of the sentence to suit your point. The focus point is paying €8m. Regardless of other players we've signed without PL experience. He's not anywhere near of the same potential of the others you've mentioned. Cabaye, Ben Arfa and Tiote are all younger an...

No, we shop in all the expensive places we just wait on all the damaged goods or nearly out of date stuff to get reduced.

Like most seasons and most clubs outside the top 6, there's really no reason why NUFC shouldn't be challenging for 7th place and higher. The 2011/12 season just goes to show that with a little bit of momentum and the addition of the right player(s) at the right time can allow you the mix it...

I'm not too sure there was "value" in the deal anyway. Paying €8m for a player that is unproven, 12 months on his current deal and nearing the end of his peak always looked strange if recent signing are anything to go by. I'm not saying I'm happy we didn't sign him but I was never...

I too fell "out of love" with England but only since the rebirth of Wembley. I really believe that the FA missed a trick when they built another national stadium. When the England team were on the road touring the stadia there was much more involvement for the everyday fan, much like the...

I didn't see him on the list but a pay-as-you-play deal surely can't be bad as an absolute last resort. Although knowing CC he'll be looking for a more permanent position

Says on PFA that he's still unattached

Now that the window has officially closed for EPL clubs the only business that can be done is loans out to FL72 clubs or free transfers coming in. I haven't looked at them all but a few names "stood out". Mamady Sidibie - ex- Stoke Craig ***an - ex- Hull Davide Somma - ex-Leeds Sylvain...

Cabaye probably urged Debuchy to come because, like the fans, he was filled with false promises of signing players. January looked promising after a frustrating summer but here we are again with only a loan signing from a relegated club with a possible prison term hanging over him...

It'll be Poyet or a Frenchman. Simples

It's a video of my dog chasing a balloon.

Unless it's escaped your notice, he always had a free role when "positioned" on the right wing.

Carroll, Fraser Forster, Chopra and many more I can't think of ..... So yes they do work but only a very small % graduate to the first team and an even smaller % give a decent service.....
