I think it would have been good without the weird black triangle and a sponsor I wouldn't be embarrassed to have on my shirt.

Keeper kit is fucking terrible.

Huddersfield confirm Mark Robins "has left the club" (i.e. been fired).

That is amazingly early in the season for such a move.

I can't decide if I want Everton's home or away kit. They both are class!

Get one now and then the other in the Christmas/post-season sales?

To match our famous one, yeah it does, but I catch your meaning. Here's Mr Cole sporting it too, lesser known fact (probably not by people on Susie) that Newcastle bought him from us.

Yes - historically, it is of significance. Colour wise, its a bit of a bizarre clash.

Tbf there's now young Mags who would be surprised Andy Cole once played for Newcastle. But I know he was sold by Arsenal to Bristol City, and then became one of Newcastle's first million pound plus signings.

Bottles so many decisions with Newcastle games, and when he does actually call them, does so incorrectly. Not a fan so won't really miss him, but I do think that the refereeing standard in general isn't as good as it was even 10 years ago.

Burnley agree deal to sign Henri Lansbury for £3.5M.

Given Pearce is annoyed at the Darlow and Lascelles joint deal, I can't imagine he's impressed by this one either.

If Alexis works as a striker then we don't need another.

Fair enough. Plus there's Joel Campbell too.

What do you think Arsenal would need for there to be a title challenge?

By Shola | On 04 August 2014 - 16:15 PM

How the hell are Sunderland spending £10m+ on a guy with a dodgy fitness record - huge gambl. Rodwell btw.

I thought that was a loan. So are Man City ignoring the homegrown quota?

Arsenal reportedly close to William Carvalho. Twitter buzz seems to think that would be a title-winning signing. Though I think Arsenal still need one extra striker to be a title challenger... well unless Yaya Sanogo can show that four v Benfica was not a one off.

Darlow and Lascelles could be good future signings.

Connor Wickham to Newcastle is one of the stranger transfer rumours.

I heard that even though Ferreyra signed on loan, we still want another striker. Not sure if Connor is really the desired target...

Luna was torn apart by Hatem Ben Arfa when Newcastle were there last year (I saw) and I thought he wasn't rated so highly after that.

I think the problems for Villa is now malaise, given that the owner doesn't want to be there and the fans at Villa largely seem to want a better manager, who equally doesn't seem to pick winners from it. Squad wise, they should be better than 15th, but its a dicey situation for them, and its not hard to at least foresee more difficulties.

Just did a league predictor. My results gave me (in this order) Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Man Utd top 4 with West Brom, Burnley and Hull going down.

I got a top 4 of Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool with West Brom, Burnley and West Ham going down.

Be funny if he scores a hat-trick at Stamford Bridge and Jose still refuses to entertain the notion it was worth keeping him there instead of Torres.

Southern Daily Echo now reporting Schneiderlin turned up to training as expected and didn't hand in a transfer request. Which is so delightfully helpful.

Apparently for Newcastle we've been linked with a double bid for Grenier and Lacazette. Might work. Though as much as it would be nice to have him back for his goals, I doubt Remy wants to return to Tyneside.

Weren't they saying Targett looked better than Shaw before they chucked Shaw in?

But yes - Chambers leaving leaves them with just him and Clyne, so at least one is still required.

Full-backs and a new centre back are the must get for them. I've heard they also want Fraser Forster as a new goalkeeper, and certainly, he would be a good signing.

Aye I think Leicester will stay up, even if £10million for Troy Deeney looks like strange business. Though while I think they will stay up, I think they will be in the battle to avoid the drop.

I do enjoy picking on QPR but a striker of repute (they're not going to keep Remy) and they will probably be fine. The claret and blue triple I mentioned in the pre-season thread could be possible, and certainly WBA will be in the mix. Palace and Sunderland probably will be as well unless they can reproduce the potent streak from the end of last season.

Considering Sydney sounded dire against Newcastle, the fact they beat West Ham and (according to reports) could've won by more than 3-1 is probably going to concern Big Fat Sam.

There's already some thinking relegation could be a claret + blue triple of WH, Villa and Burnley.

1-0 win over Wellington Phoenix means Newcastle have won that New Zealand pre-season thing we were in.

I was asleep so missed it but from what I gather, BT Sport cut the last the 10 minutes of the game and the post-match trophy presentation. Given they show shit all else apart from football, seems like a stupid arrangement.

Lampard to NYCFC it seems

I don't know how welcome he'll be up in NYC - he was among the Chelsea players that drunkenly mocked American tourists stranded in London in the aftermath of 9/11, and the New York Daily News article on it was followed by lots of angry comments.
