I'm not so sure that teachers are the best port of call for such learning as I thought 'new' Labour had ditched good old fashioned teaching techniques like grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc?

Aren't we all?

Damn. Foiled again.

Overall, I agree with the 'pragmatic' approach....but would still be nice to have just one 'major' headline grabbing signing to whet our appetite. It would be a tad dull if everything was done at a 'sensible' level.

A relatively small observation but nice to see him using the word 'we' even when talking about past events (e.g. "we had a bad season last year"). Subtle but reassuring.

Nice one. Yet more concrete evidence that pardew is making his player decisions based on this forum. IMHO of course.

Pardew will be keeping the players that come top of these popularity polls.

Hope someone is keeping count of all these extra season ticket sale pledges

Priceless

Three goalkeepers in that list...

I tend to agree. People are quick to write off friendlies when we lose them in the same way that politicians write off bad by-election results or poor standing in a poll. The words head and sand spring to mind

Why are so many people going to the south of France?

What sort of Christ things? He turned fish into loaves pretty much overnight as I recall

Since when has a SWF post needed such qualification as "no firm source"? Taken as read, surely?!

Lourdes for me

We don't have to survive on sell on fees any more. Oh happy days

Actually, on reflection, only partially happy as you've only changed the opening post title and not the thread title itself. 5 out of 10 for effort though.

CHEERS! Happy Trousers indeed

Would have been better to include the name of the player in the thread title. IMHO of course

Can we....?

Hmmm....Here's hoping he politely ignores these calls and goes for the players that their current clubs don't want them to leave. There's a very good reason why agents have a glut of average players on their books.

Perhaps they've been 'advised' to sell crap/weak beer with an equally crap queuing system to clamp down on drunkeness? Wouldn't surprise me in this nanny state within which we live.

Murty had loads of 'awareness' on Saturday. No coincidence that Pardew was his boss once upon a time one would venture
