Why is everyone so desperate to sign Borini...?

That "elected spokesperson" line you use is really starting to send me to sleep. Surely you aren't so unintelligent that you can't come up with anything other than a generic retort to almost every post?. And I didn't smash up anything <ok>

You're talking on behalf of the Newcastle supporters, stop doing it and I'll stop pointing it out.
In reality you're speaking on behalf of no one but yourself and it's bullshit, of course you care ...... I do and it's horrible when we lose.

Why would we need to go quiet, you have finished in the bottom half of the league ever since you returned, you've never finished above 7th ffs <laugh>

What I'm saying is, the derby is the least of our concern when we are actually frightened of dropping out of the league. Did you really just make a joke about Newcastle only selling out for the derby, when you couldn't even sell out for it <laugh> <doh> <doh> <doh>

I wasn't making a joke.

I'm simply pointing out that Newcastle supporters obviously do care as the fixture regularly attracts your biggest gate and the same applies with us.

You said, "most of us couldn't give a monkeys about the derby games." Just admit it, that's bollocks isn't it?
 
Because we need more than 11 players.

What happens when one suffers a dip in form and all we have on the bench are "squad players". Hopefully Gus realises we need competition and the ability to mix things up when needed.

Also, what about our cup run ?

Do you realise the transfer window isn't actually open yet?

.....all we have on the bench are "squad players"... Who are you expecting to have on the bench, Ironman? Superman? Messi? Delia Smith?

I don't follow your argument.

<doh> Fine, when I said "couldn't give a monkeys", I should have said "the derby is the least of our concerns as we have much larger issues withing our club to worry about". Pathetic <laugh>

Aye but show me where I was racist, or are you just telling lies?
Now listen you here to me bonny lad, I've worked with lads from all over, I've said this before but I keep getting accused of being racist.
Well **** you Joe Bloggs because I'm well away from that stuff, you ****ing knacker.
Not just lads from Britain but all over the world.
Canada, Australia, USA, France, Germany, Holland.

A lot of those fellers were black, some were twats, some were good lads.
Some were ****s, some were good lads, some I'd have died for, so put that up your twat you thick bastard.
I've already explained this before & I wont do it again.
If you're gonna throw the accusations around mate, put the proof there for all to see. <ok>
 
"A squad player is much like a fire extinguisher; you only regret buying a cheap one when you really need to use it"

What I meant was - I don't follow the argument that we don't need another inside left/left winger when we already have Giaccherini. We will need replacements over the season, whether it's due to injury or a dip in form, and I don't want our bench or remaining squad players to be the sorts of players who aren't capable of fighting for a starting place. Every player should bring something to the team and we know that Borini brings plenty.

Now, if Smug was suggesting that we can probably bring in someone who is of a similar level but happy to play back up to Giacch (as Giacch did to Borini) then I apologise for the misunderstanding. I just hope the club is aspiring to better things than a first 11 and some fringe players.

That's all.

Although a straight swap with Norwich; Delia for Jozy might be a shrewd move.
