    I'm sorry if this has been done to death, but I am now officially p£$$ed off with the amount of available players that the club are letting slip through the net. As an example both Burke and Snodgrass would have been great acquisitions but to read that they have just gone to West Brom and Villa is somewhat criminal.
    Once again we are left with the "what's left " and the "no-body wants".......Rant over!

    We have 4 wingers! Why would we waste what little money we do have on either of these?

    Some interesting stats regarding the poor start to the season...

    "Newcastle have lost both of their opening two games to a Premier League season for only the third time. On the other two occasions, they finished the season in the top 11 (3rd in 1993-94 and 11th in 1999-00)."

    "Newcastle haven't won a Premier League game in the month of August since 2013; losing five and drawing four of their nine matches in the month since then."

    The stages are progressively

    Getting pissed off
    Feeling pissed off
    Being pissed off
    Officially pissed off
    Completely pissed off
    Completely and utterly pissed off
    Watching Sunderland and realising there's still 30 minutes to go and pissing off

    I'm not all that bothered about those two, but just in general I share your official pissed-off-ness at our inability to get any of our first choice targets through the door. Once again we've left it too late and we'll be picking up the dregs - if we pick up anyone at all.

    No but that is an interesting idea. I went for the old barbacoa. It was pretty tasty and terrible prep for my training later. Lets hope its not a squat day or I may let a mexican barbacoa parp go on the trainer. Those bastard chips though.

    I just want this pissing transfer window to piss off and shut now. Its pissing me off as I'm sure everyone at the club is pissed off with the uncertainty. Past caring if we sign anyone. Just best off knowing what we have got for the foreseeable and getting on with it.

    Obviously that's the preference but my point was really that the window should close before the season starts. It's definitely unsettled us.
