Tick Tock…
KK and the motley crew of Wise, Jimenez, Vetere and Ashley have their work cut out over the next 30 hours. The time is ticking in the countdown for the window to slam shut until the winter months of next year.

Milner To Depart?
James Milner has officially handed in a transfer request. The club has officially announced that it is not happy about it but will only let him leave at their valuation (good for them). I think Aston Villa have pursued him in an incorrect manner and they had the cheek to moan about Liverpool with Barry. […]

Told You So!
Great title eh? Did say I felt good going into this and we got a result and a very good one at that.
The players are playing correctly to a style pleasing to the eye. Man of the match should have been given to both Guthrie and Jonas. Coloccini fitted in nicely for a first game […]

An Odd Rumour?

We apparently look like selling Smudge to the Toffees for £3 million… I have heard about a possible deal involving us signing David Healy from Fulham for £1.5 million. Now he […]

Some Goals!
Well our friendly with PSV brought us some goals from Taylor and Guthrie in the first 10 minutes of the match. We were later pegged back with PSV’s equaliser coming in the last 10 minute after a variety of changes for the Toon. Good result looking at things.
Alan Smith did not feature with KK stating […]
