  1. Morning General, Just wondering if you and Randy will be attending the Baltimore Ravens v Cleveland Browns game on December 26th at the Cleveland Browns Stadium? Fancy taking a Flock member along for the ride?
  2. Why does everyone keep saying 'unhappy player'? Milner has NEVER hinted or said outright he is unhappy here. All that is ever mentioned is that he wanted to talk to City. If he is looking for trophies then I don't blame him. Lets be honest, he is more likely to get a trophy at City than at Villa at the moment isn't he? Yeah he might play a bit part, but he might play first team. We don't know. The point is, the guy has options. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to stay here if City don't meet Villas valuation. He's hardly tried to force a move has he?
  3. I agree with that. I'm just saying it wouldn't be the end of the world if it did happen.
  4. Then what happens if (God forbid) something was to happen to either of the first team wingers? We'd drop Albrighton into the deep end... Is that really what you would expect of a club aiming for the champions league? You are more of a gambler than me! So you would like us to buy SWP? So we'd have one of SWP/ Downing/ Ash on the bench. What a waste of money. I'd much prefer us to spend that money on Ireland and have a quality first 11 with less-experienced subs than to have a weaker first team. SWP---------Young----Downing --------------Gabby-------------- Works for me.
  5. according to what? buying Heskey in Jan 09 when we needed a top striker to aid our CL challenge? buying nobody last Jan? Please enlighten me Ambition is tempered by the realities of the situation you find yourself in. This Jan for example, it's pretty obvious we'd not got the funds for players one way or another. You may have noticed that's hungover to now. I think O'Neill has the ambition to do things and succeed. He may go about doing so in his own way, but if he wasn't ambitious I don't think he'd be in the current job. It's just something you can tell about the man, and sometimes what he says. It's clear now that his foremost thoughts are of realities, but I daresay he's still has thoughts of achieving a lot. He just, currently, can't. You agree that we have no money? I have been saying this for some time but other people seem to think we have a bottomless pit, therefore we should be looking to do the Milner deal quickly in order to generate funds as well as selling off other fringe players. He doesn't act like he has ambition with his speed in the transfer market and ability to get things done and prepare for the new season. So to you, ambition is dependant on how quickly you resolve issues?
  6. I chose Cup Simply because it is the more realistic option. If we did get 4th we'd only disappoint in the Champs League anyway. Probably wouldn't make it to the group stages.
  7. I was just concentrating on the pic with Tebow in it, Lucy Pinder is a bonus
  8. It's bollocks really. I flippin' hate the media sometimes. Just drumming up more trouble.
  9. That is not allowed! Although this year at Wembley I shall be supporting the 49ers. Can't bring myself to cheer for the Broncos and Tebow. Even if this is his girlfriend.
  10. This in a big way. Bring in a **** salary cap FFS. Lots of team sports around the world have. No, the Sky 4 and FA wouldn't allow it. Bad for the Asian market. I agree that a salary cap would be a great thing.
  11. I have a feeling that IF Milner were to leave for between 20-25million, then MON will buy a player that non of us thought we would go for. There will be much rejoicing, but then the player will flop and MON will be branded a failure at transfers once more.
  12. I don't see how people have come to the conclusion that his 'silence means he is going'. The guy has had a long season, he had a long World Cup, and he is now on a well deserved break. If you guys were in his shoes and you were relaxing on your holibobs after a busy year, and your work kept phoning you up, I know exactly what you would do. Switch your phone off and wait until you got home before turning it back on. (Unless you own your own business >_>) We have 3 or 4 days until he is back, we'll see what occurs then.
  13. Get that checked Dante. Never check the speculation thread on a loaded gun It's a rookie mistake :cry:
  14. --------Petrov-------Flamini-------- Young-----Sessegnon----Downing ---------------Gabby---------------- I'd be happy with that.
  15. I'll be buying the black away kit and the purple training top. Sorted.
  16. He is not on a free. Has atleast two more years on his contract with Lyon. Last I heard his 4 year contract ran out this year. Link to blog His contract ends on 30.06.2012: Link Sorry, but I think i'll believe an NUFC blog site before that one :winkold:

  18. Kallstrom is on a free, and he'd be an amazing pick up for us if we could get him. He's like Petrov, but younger and faster. He can slow the game down and pick a pass, he can tackle, and he can shoot.
  19. You could always watch the NFL access shows on Sky Sports. Just up to date news and stuff, some highlights, interviews etc... nfl.coms video section has a great load of vids from seasons past which you can watch. Gameday highlights, play highlights etc... The new season starts September 9th.
  20. No idea what he's doing, but I like it! Playing air guitar according to the OS :shock: Looks more like air 'banjo'!
