Ji was pretty good for Augsburg, helped them survive relegation. Can't see them going with Aubameyang as their main striker either. I think they'll bring in someone.

Is Scheiber being sold?

Crazy to think Sunderland could get relegated and their reserve strikers will be at BVB and wherever Borini ends up.

Sunderland have sacked Keith Lemon.

Probably good news for Sunderland, if it means Poyet has control over transfers. He seems to have been a disaster. I think Ki is the only signing to come off.

Hard to know what it means for Sunderland's transfers though, hard to know if Andujar, Scocco and Vergini were Poyet or De Fanti targets.

Mark Douglas in the Journal today suggesting that Kinnear has cost Newcastle the title this year. Douglas doesn't understand the concept of net transfer spend. Aiming his fury at programme notes, which Kinnear almost certainly doesn't write.

Nice to see Journal/Chronicle are still right up Pardew's arse.

GIF's dont do it justice.

Tiote scores, referee does nothing, linesman keeps his flag down. Tiote is already celebrating with the bench. Man City players complain. Ref goes over to linesman. Linesman flags.

Hart with a clear sight. Gouffran and Taylor attempting not to touch the ball. Cabaye and Sissoko booked.

Steven Taylor and Jonas were the guys I was referring to. I understand that rage at Shola is always going to happen and I can understand why fans don't like Obertan (booing him is fucking shocking though).

It's more the randomness element. Gouffran is loved for his work rate, Jonas is hated for it. Steven Taylor as been generally liked for the past decade, than has suddenly jerked into being a hated joke who isn't good enough. Williamson has went from that to first name on the team sheet in 6 months or so.

There's also the inverse. The answer to ALL problems, Shane Long.

Shane Long - 19 in 84 (PL for WBA)
Nikica Jelavic - 16 in 59 (PL)
Danny Graham 16 in 86 (PL)
Papiss Cisse 22 in 64 (PL)
Remy 18 in 32 (PL)

Shane Long would be a top signing though.

Also Newcastle should sign Best back.

Does any other club's fans pick a player and focus all their negative energy on them for a few months, before switching to another player?

Abdoulaye Meite to Doncaster. Swear this transfer had already happened.


Sunderland have apparently signed an Argentinian CB - Vergini and are interested in an Argentinian GK and striker. Fair play to them for sticking with this transfer style I suppose, shows a bit of guts.

Meanwhile Cabral is the first of their summer signings to leave going on loan to Genoa.

One of Cuellar/Roberge/Diakite must be away as well surely.

It is tbf. Redtops have less newsworthy things on their front page 90% of the time.

And I agree fully with there being no need to link Smalling with Hitzlsperger.

Isn't there 24 hour drinking in the UK now anyway? I think Wetherspoons serve at like 9am or something. Pubs will serve on derby days anyway, too much money.

Early kick offs just seem to get the pissheads more motivated. Getting up at 8 on a sunday to get the bus into Newcastle early to make sure they get enough drinking hours in before the match.

WEST HAM
Failed to land a deadline-day striker, which means manager Sam Allardyce will be praying Andy Carroll can get fit quick.
Once Carroll is back, the signing of Stewart Downing to provide the ammunition may prove to be very clever.
Score: 7


The Mirror's transfer window review in the summer

Half a striker, three centre backs and reliant on the very reliable and consistent Jarvis, Downing and Joe Cole for any sort of creativity.

I think out of the players playing tonight only Diame, Noble and Downing would actually be wanted at any other PL club.

L'Equippe linking Newcastle with Fofana (Lyon) and Cedric Bakambu (Sochaux) Good to be linked with someone who isn't Gomis.

Why do people listen to French Presidents regarding transfers? Bunch of charlatans


Also 'rumour' that Vince McMahon was one thinking about buying Newcastle. Would love it as long as he gave the players gimmicks and intro and goal music.

'The Bad Guy' Ranger Ramon. - MY GAWD he's going for the Ranger's Edge!

I already picture JFK as Bobby Heenan tbh.

Man Utd fans are tremendously annoying. What is it about them only having one chant and chanting it continuously. Games are nearly unwatchable. Be quiet please.

Could just drive to wherever the official transport meets, imagine that would be stadium, then I don't see there is much difference driving a few more miles


Well that's 'fine' assuming you live south of Sunderland. If you live north - it will mean travelling in the wrong direction. Plus a massive ballache for people who live within walking distance of the stadium. Instead of a 2 minute walk, a two hour journey and the additional costs of it.

I don't think anyone knows. There has been conflicting reports to whether Newcastle and QPR have an agreed fee, with most of them suggesting there is not. I've seen nothing to suggest there is a chance of him leaving in January. I think Newcastle is his level if i'm honest, I'm unconvinced he can step up.

I don't think anyone is going to risk signing him until his legal problems go away.

Adebayor ran the length of the pitch to purposely celebrate in front of the Arsenal fans to wind them up, Walcott was laying there injured having abuse shouted at him which carried on whilst on the stretcher, he was smiling as he done it too so clearly saw it as just a bit of fun. Ban him if they must but i hope they ban all the fans which were throwing objects at him as that seems to have just been laughed of as nothing...

Maybe we should ban scoreboards or turn them off in case it upsets the fans too?


MAYBE THEY SHOULD BAN RUNNING.

What was Walcott stretchered off for? seems like you shouldn't be smiling if on a stretcher.

Not sure if its a good career move. Would think Pepe is going to want a Gotze type as his main forward.

Means Mandzukic should be available in the summer.

I watched Pulp Fiction for the first time in years.

Thought the Bruce Willis scenes were all terrible. His girlfriend in the film must be one of the most annoying characters in film history.

All Sunderland fans have to go on official transport for the derby. - Must be a bit shit for fans who don't live in Sunderland. (although not living in Sunderland is a positive)

Seems a bit shit.
