Charles N’Zogbia
Nolan Gone. Any more unpleasant surprises?
Thursday, June 23rd, 2011It was a shock to see Kevin Nolan leaving St James’ Park a few weeks back. He’s been a true highlight of the season and at least deserved some serious talks to get the right contract. He’s now packed his bags and gone to the Hammers. It clearly sends a message to players that even [...]
Given is a Goner; N’Zogbia Ships Out; Good News on the Horizion?
Wednesday, February 4th, 2009After our timid transfer window closes, we can look back at a month where Newcastle made a profit on players but did little to steady fan nerves. Any suggestion that Newcastle were going to strengthen was firmly set aside as Dennis Wise failed to secure us the much needed players to fortify the team amidst [...]
The State of Modern Football (and Newcastle United)
Wednesday, January 14th, 2009I get pretty disheartened in recent weeks about some of the activities of the Premier league both on and off the field. I think the Charles N’Zogbia story kind of sums up my disgust at players who in general act like divas who show no respect to fans (especially younger fans who hero worship players). [...]
N’Zogbia Tries To Talk Himself Into A Transfer
Tuesday, January 13th, 2009This is looking more and more like our ‘Berbatov’ moment. The silly frenchman who was once something of a favourite player amougst fans is now something of a joke these days. After his first rant not going down well with fans and being booed against the our draw with West Ham, he’s still not had [...]
Newcastle United News Roundup
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008Lots happening around the club. The ongoing buyout is still a mystery. I don’t think anyone knows what is truly happening here. One moment Kinnear says there is going to be a big announcement on the 21st and then that deadline goes. The fans have heard nothing from anybody other then Kinnear and I’m not [...]
Danny Guthrie Looks to Move to Newcastle United
Friday, July 11th, 2008The Chronicle reports that Liverpool midfielder, Danny Guthrie is making the move to St James’ Park. The bid has been agreed and we could expect the 21 yr old to be training with the lads in the run up to a few of pre-season friendlies next month. Young Danny had been actually playing on loan [...]
Kevin Keegan Hands Out Reality Check
Tuesday, May 6th, 2008We have made no head way over the recent matches in terms of climbing the table further. We most likely end up stuck in 12th position thanks to a string of undefeated fixtures which ended with two goals scored by Chelsea. An interview to the media after our 2-0 defeat was tinged with some frustrations [...]
Updates: N’Zogbia, Given and Transfers
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008It looks like Given will be out for the rest of the season. He sustained a groin injury half way through the season only to undergo surgery. Harper took over but has since received plenty of praise from Keegan and he admitted that Given’s place wouldn’t be a certainty if he returns. On the injury [...]
