Ben Arfa out for another 5 or 6 weeks, according to the Chronicle.

Unfortunate.
Another derby he'll miss because of injury: hopefully he'll be able for the return fixture.

So we missed the deadline for registering a new left back..... Fcuking amatures!

Barton starting tomorrow, according to Colin Young of the Daily Mail.

Also, there's reports Collocini has been sold to Valencia. No idea if that's true though, but it is gathering speed:

€5m according to those links. Surely that couldn't be true, although he is apparently on £80,000 a week.

Seen that in the Mail a few days ago also. I think it could very well happen.

Selling Collo would be a disaster, just can't happen!

Saw that yesterday alright. Words would not be enough to describe that decision.

Vurnon San Benito

Reportedly in for Aly Cissokho with a €6m bid.

Coloccini not going anywhere; Valencia Director confirmed that there isn't any interest. Although, mind you £80,000 a week is ridiculous.

Can't wait for tomorrow. ESPN HD as well which is nice

Forgot to post this a few weeks ago folks.

Best of luck for the season lads, if I was offered 17th place now I'd take it tbh! Think we should be ok but knowing d!ckhead A**ley he'll have a few more tricks up his sleeve over the next few months just to keep the football world entertained.

Anyway....

Howay the lads

Paully D

The best of bad luck this season lads! I hope it's a shit one :pac:

I think the one word analysis of todays game lads would be "gutsy".

We didnt have much of the ball, did not really look that threatening but this team is a work in progress. I thought Colo was man of the match, was close between him and Taylor. As for the new lads, was surprised to not see Marveaux on the bench is he injured or what?
Cabaye was a solid enough performer in midfield, he does the simple things well but for the first 30 minutes seemed to be playing behind Tiote so the tactics were very defensive.
Demba Ba didnt do much but he didnt get the service either to be fair so when he as substituted at half time it was understandable.
Obertan came on for Ba and made a few great runs and had a few nice touches, he may be useful after all but time will tell.
Ryan Taylor played left back and was not too bad at all considering.
I thought Simpson was pretty poor and was skinned all too often.
Jonas was his usual workhorse but I did miss the interplay that used to happen between him and Jose. Hopefully we will get a new left back in that he can gel with.
Ameobi was......no comment........
and as for Joey, his performance was solid and gave all as per usual. I think his passion takes control of him sometimes though and needs to be tamed.

All in all a defensive performance that got the point which I am sure Pardew was after.

Roll on the derby........

bazual

On another note, Erik Pieters played for PSV tonight and got booked. If the move is so imminent then I doubt he would have been playing so that's likely another player we won't get.

That_Guy

I've not heard of the chap but if he's forcing a move out of the club, who's to say he won't do that in a few years time to us.

At this stage though, I'd take anybody.

Raoul

Whats the story with Sylvain Marveaux, is he going to get on or where is he?

Not sure really. Hopefully not too long.

Put him in my FF team, thinking that he would be at least on the bench.

Paully D

Well lads! All set for the big one at the weekend? How do you see the game going?

I'll be in that mindset tomorrow my good man. Still digesting this weekends action.

he played a full 90 for the ressies lastnight. He's only just back to full fitness after being out all season. reckon he'll be on the bench against the unwashed.

chimpo85

Ahhh?? What the heck is this nugget?

http://www.nufcblog.org/2011/08/newcastle-sign-up-forster-replacement-from-charlton/

That_Guy

Bring in a keeper, let Forster go on loan... What the fúck?

The club are aware that it's a striker, a left back and a centre back we need right?

Fúcking mongs.

EDIT: There's Harper gone anyway which is a pity because he's a fantastic goalkeeper. Hopefully he's offered a coaching role at least.

chimpo85

I think Harps will stay, hes getting old like. And showed it parts of last season. But what about Sodeberg!? Obviously Forsters going to earn a permenant move to Celtic but that numpty is clearly brought in as cover for the first 2!? It makes no sense! Theres something very Nacho Gonzalez about all this...abeit it not being a favour to some south American agents, but to agents in London!!!

That_Guy

Pardew on SSN:

We had to sell Enrique in order to sign a left back

Absolute horse shít from Pardew once again who is now nothing but a mouthpiece for the FCB upstairs.

Where the fúck is the £47 million we've collectively gotten from Carroll, Nolan, Routledge and Enrique?

Paully D

Any of you read Sir Bobby's autobiography? He said that Harper got a bonus every time he didn't make an appearance!

Seannew1

Does anyone know if Harper was injured for the Arsenal game?? I thought he had an injury but i read in the northern echo this morning that apparantly he surrendered the 2nd goalkeeping position to Forster to give the chap some experience??!!
I've always preffered Harper over Krul,I know Krul has the ability to pull off a save that maybe harper wouldn't but harper is far better at distribution,crosses and his confidence to the back 4.

chimpo85

in the SOS, sh*tting bricks...dont know what to do with my time so im on the net. HOWAY THE LADS!

Anyone got a stream? has to be flash but no vshare (in work )

Moneymaker

I'm gonna have a big beaming smile on my face for a week. :D:D:D:D:D

Some result, everyone fought and scrapped for every ball, defense was superb.

Best of all was Mrs.Doubtfire with a big fml face near the end as his expensively assembled team of hatchetmen lose. Again.

:D:D:D

Cake Man

Dire game but feck it I'm happy! 180 mins played and no goal conceded isn't bad going and it wasn't as if we were playing cannon fodder teams.
Howay the lads!

bazual

Great result lads. Here are Pardews comments

Fulham up next and hopefully a couple of players in by then. Fulham might be a bit tired with the midweek game they have. 7 from 9 before the international break would be alot more than I expected.

Seannew1

Lets all laugh at Sunderland!!!

That_Guy

Still buzzing. In terms of our defence we looked quite good but we definitely need more bodies there.

Attack is very worrying as we don't look like scoring from open play. Hopefully some signings are done and quickly before the Fulham game next weekend.

I'll let the worrying nature of our paper thin squad rest for a while though and savour a great victory.

bazual

SSN says PArdew is watching the PSV game today to see what Pieters is like.

Watched the first half an hour and the team they are playing are not great. Pieters has been solid enough and likes to get in support for the attacks which is good.

You can watch here

That_Guy

Fingers crossed this is the case baz mate. Pieters looks decent and could be the perfect replacement for Enrique.

I hope he's got Carr out looking at strikers too.

Fulham lost today against Wolves. With a Europa League game in store for Fulham on Thursday and the game against us on Sunday, it could be an excellent time to play them and if we get at them early on, we could win quite comfortably. With the derby win, the home crowd will be buzzing.

Rare optimism. :pac:

Vurnon San Benito

Well well well, what can I say.

Top Dogs of the North-East again.



Usual scum from the Mackems as well, disgusting tackle from Bardsley on Coloccini. Nearly broke the lads leg.

Some poor challenges, lets not forget Cabaye's challenge though, that was a shocker. Colo and Jonas got clobbered alright!

awful challenge from Yohan but whoever it was he challenged, their foot was well off the ground. I could be wrong but Colo foot was on the ground or barely off it?? Bardsleys was def a straight red, not a second yellow. No argument with Cabayes card...

Was at the game and overall, unreal day. Cabaye in particular impressed me, constantly looking for something off the ball. Our influx of midfielders has appeared to have put the shíts up Jonas....played fantastic. Tracked back to aid R Taylor, attacked and caused all sorts of hassle for the smb...and bout time too!

That_Guy

Looking forward to seeing the likes of Vuckic, Abeid and Sammy Ameobi on Thursday against Scunthorpe.

Vurnon San Benito

Does STaylor get the final touch? :pac:

That_Guy

Nah, I don't think so Doocey. Would be cruel to take that away from Ryan.

Vurnon San Benito

Nah watched the video again and I think STaylor was quite a bit off it too.
Then again, was just a decent excuse to pop in a nicely sized photo of the winner :pac:

That_Guy

Where's the Sunderland fans these days? :pac:
