Honey Honey Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I saw Bobby Moncur in Boots Opticians in the Metro Centre yesterday. For those under the age of 60 who don't support Newcastle, Bobby Moncur was our Fairs Cup winning captain the last time we won a trophy in 1969 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 (edited) For those that don't know, a former Newcastle United player (North sheilds born) has played for Universitario. His name is Mark Cook. He played for us in 2012 as our backup keeper although he didn't last long here and went to playing non-leagues afterwards. He's 28 years old now and fuck knows where he is. Nolberto Solano was our manager at the time and he brought him in. Edited July 3, 2017 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a good signing for Newcastle - with loads of experience and contributes off the pitch too, with helping youngsters and newcomers.

Honey Honey Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Back of the Gallowgate to be the new signing section. Might help the corners atmosphere spread into the whole Gallowgate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honey Honey Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Lots of open space and pre season mistakes from both sides last night. Aarons looked good. Has he also grown a ft? Mbemba had an absolute stinker at right back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbemba was shite, Haidara was shite, Diame was shite, Mitro was shite. Lascelles looked fat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind seeing Elliot start the season as number one, think he's the best keeper at the club. Not surprised by the players you've listed as shite, we do need some reinforcements, should be able to get Murphy over the line next week hopefully.

Toony Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 £12.5mil deal agreed - a lot of money but if he's Rafa's man that's good enough for me. Hopefully this is the start of a glut of signings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Rafa threatens Ashley today and is due to open a SportsDirect store tomorrow in Dublin. This isn't a coincidence. Ashley will have been on that phone to make sure the SportsDirect opening isn't hijacked by press asking negative questions. Pleased about this signing though, liked the look of him at the U21 tournament. Plenty of pace which is what you need in the top flight. To top it all off the lad is a Newcastle fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 (edited) According to many sources here and its starting to hit English sources too. A bit of a profile on him... he's a player that no defender can stop on the ball. He is better at beating the backline than Messi. Unfortunately, his end product and football brain hold him back. His final cross is awful, and his shooting while not awful, could also be better. He's been linked with premier league clubs for a long time, and it will be interesting if he could cut it. I think me and @Machado can both agree that he's probably not good enough for a top PL club but maybe at Newcastle he'll be enough.

Administrator Stan Posted July 17, 2017 Administrator Share Posted July 17, 2017 Think we were in for him a couple of summers ago and I'd have loved him here purely based on football manager reasons. Can't say I've seen a lot of him since or any mention of him since tbh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also linked with Watford, and as Stan mentioned has been linked with Leicester in the past. Honestly he has the potential to be a player for a club like Liverpool or Tottenham, but right now he's about Newcastle's level, or a mid table side. Sure he's in the middle of his career, by potential I mean if at some point he has better end product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machado Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Doesn't have a place in our squad but good enough for NUFC or Watford? He's unbelievably quick when he wants to be but most of the time he's as sluggish as they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with everything else though, there's a good reason he's on the bench for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better as in would beat them in a CL/EL play off... probably, but playing for a Premier League mid table club is at least as demanding as playing for one of Portugal's top 3, because in the PL you face tougher opposition most weekends. The rhythm is also higher in the PL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
