That's a good point actually... Keep him!

So far this summer they're doing ok. You have to remember that last season the squad was too small, so they need more than another 2 or 3 to come in. I'll never forget the contempt they've shown for us the fans. The wrestling banners away from people, the lies, the footballing suicide of giving...

We were woefully short on numbers last season - having to field 4 or 5 18 year olds as starters. This is about depth - not putting together 11 players and crossing your fingers they play all the games. There were games at the end of the season where we struggled to put a side out - this is not...

You take the time to make an intelligent post like this which highlights the weakness of our squad and Duffy/Grendel can't even make a sensible comment in reply. He likes to ignore facts about the weaknes of the squad as it makes his anti-Thorn stance look unreasonable. We had a shit squad...

LOL! :D:whistle:

What a ludicrous statement. Yeah I'm Andy Thorn's Auntie...

Fair comment. His health is a worry - however I personally love the passing style we play. I also think he is a good guy doing a difficult job - and what I don't want to see is people getting vocal about ousting him. There are idiots (and yes i'm confident that's the right label) who have a go...

What kind of fool would see Thorn's quote as excuse making?! I'm not sure what some people's problem is with Thorn. My guess is they're angry at being in League 1, but too stupid to aim their anger at our shocking owners.

The academy is crucial to our future. Producing home grown players is much better financially than paying for players. Must everyone at the club be accused of 'spin'?!

I'd like to see us carry on with the passing football - but play 5 in midfield and one up front in a variation of the diamond. I loved our passing play last season - but thought the lack of options on the deck meant we had to go back to Murphy too often. Also, the midfielders were nowhere near...

He's all left foot. Let's not ruin the kid.

Poor Fleck - hasn't kicked a ball and already being played out of position. Same old City!

We conceded loads of goals from set pieces last season. My point was that Andy Thorn isn't rectifying it by signing short people. And this is from a Thorn 'fanboy'

Read my post (directly above yours). It was an observation - where did I say he's crap?

Not saying he's rubbish - just an observation about our weaknesses.

Another short player. Get ready to concede lots of goals from set pieces again next season! It was a real weakness last year.

Damn right. As much as we all loved Noel Whelan as a player he's behaved like an absolute idiot over this. NOT the way to ask for a job!

He won't get a first team game at Newcastle - not for years.

You lot might not like this, but David Bell is gonna play a big part this season in central midfield. And no - I haven't been drinking.

I didn't say we owe them nothing - I was saying if we can convince them to piss off maybe it can be written off. If we went into admin they'd only get a small percentage of the money. It's the only way I can see us getting rid of that debt.
