Top Newcastle Youngsters Could Go On Loan To Gateshead

2:05 pm, Monday, October 15th, 2012 by Ed Harrison · 134 Comments

Newcastle’s 19 year-old Australian center-back Curtis Good could be going out on loan at nearby Gateshead, and Curtis has just returned from captaining the Australian U21 side against Portugal, a game the Socceroos lost 4-1.

Curtis Good – could go on loan to Gateshead

Curtis arrived on Tyneside in the summer, and he’s played in the U21 side so far, and hasn’t been involved in any of Newcastle’s first team squads since the season started, but he has plenty of time to get settled in on Tyneside.

Good made his Newcastle first team debut at Gateshead in pre-season and is still only 19 years old and on a six year contract at Newcastle, and he will be given plenty of time to get himself acclimatized to life on Tyneside.

We haven’t heard to much about Curtis so far, but he’s a skilful ball-playing center-back who we are hoping will come through the ranks at Newcastle, and it seems that Gateshead manager Ian Bogie may be keen on taking Curtis to Gateshead,  where he can get some good first team experience.

James Tavernier, Paul Dummett and Jak Alnwick have all been sent on loan to Gateshead, and it’s a mutually beneficial arrangement between the two Tyneside clubs.

This is what Ian Bogie said today:

“I have spoken to both Newcastle and Sunderland about bringing players in.” “I have had no success at that so far.” “Newcastle only really have Adam Campbell in terms of a player who would make the difference to us at the top end.”

“I have also enquired about Curtis Good but he is away with Australia.” “We like our big brothers to help us out with players from time to time.”

It’s an excellent arrangement between Newcastle and Gateshead, and maybe The Heed will soon become an official feeder club for Newcastle.

We’re sure that  both Adam Campbell and Curtis Good could benefit from playing some games across the River Tyne, and of course Gateshead would benefit as well.

    It would be nice to have a big enough squad to allow our younger players to leave on loan.

    Unfortunately Curtis is only 1 injury away from the starting 11 and Campbell is 1 of only 4 recognised strikers in the nufc first team.

  • 2 Toonboy_84 // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:20 PM

    Ok kets, I got 2 letters mixed up. You’re whole mind is pretty f**led judging by the waffle you spout on here.

  • 3 Toonboy_84 // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:21 PM

    *F**ked

    Ok I can’t spell today.

  • 4 Nufc-83 // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:31 PM

    Robson is in the same box as kets for me with that drivel about Bigi. How is a lad of 18 at his best you idiot he will improve massively and you say he cant pass the ball the main thing he has shown is confidence to ping 50yd balls and they have been completed more times than not.

  • 5 davybtoon // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:37 PM

    Nufc83 – think bigirimana has completed more passes than anyone else in our midfield this season sure that’s the stat on him

    Deadpool- yes arsenal aren’t a dominant force, man utd are, Liverpool were in the 80s, Chelsea was few year back, you hav to b winning things on a consistent basis to classed a dominant force

    Awesome.

  • 7 davybtoon // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:41 PM

    Deadpool – are late 90s era can only b described as entertaining n nothing else not dominant not successfull bcoz we were neither of them things

    If u class getting to Europe a success then that’s exactly what we are now a success as in the 90s

  • 8 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:46 PM

    Is it safe yet?

  • 9 toonLYF // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:47 PM

    derby nerves kicking in already for me… Massive game for Cabaye, Cheick, Hatem and a Demba. Time to show why we’re a cut above the likes of Sunderland, and other mid table mediocre teams.

  • 10 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 2:59 PM

    Funny, u do realise we could see a “homegrown”, or almost, back four, in about 3-4 years time?
    Tavernier, Good, Streete, Dummet.

    Nice :)

  • 11 chris_g // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:00 PM

    Ibiza @8 – probably not ;)

    You may have noticed on the previous thread that the latest installment of the Ketsy master plan involves increasing the capacity of the stadium to 75,000 by getting all the heritage listed buildings knocked down !!!

    As a man once said:
    “Only an idiot would want those fine buildings knocked down for a new football stand!! ”

  • 12 Deadpool // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:02 PM

    Davyb

    You don’t half talk some garbage.

    You don’t have to win things to be considered dominant.

    The current teams that dominate the PL are man u, man c, chelsea, arsenal, spurs and at this early point of the season Everton.

    Dominant means being better that the other team on the football pitch. This is by dominating the opposition with quality football, something lacking at nufc since sir Bobby.

    There are 3 domestic competitions and 2 are not even taken seriously by the dominant teams so that is why it is useless to use cups won as an indication of dominance.

    So in conclusion be quiet.

  • 13 Toonboy_84 // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:18 PM

    Chris g

    Brilliant ;)

  • 14 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:30 PM

    Chris G….Well said. Some may not agree on things on here, but some people are clearly missing one or two pieces.

    Dannyo….Yep. There the boys who will helping us strive towards mid table mediocrity when we sell off our purples ;)

  • 15 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:40 PM

    Kets
    Why are you talking about knocking down peoples homes and basically signing a new starting 11?
    Absolute fcuking idiot

  • 16 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:43 PM

    http://m.skysports.com/article/football//8166338

    Bless him he loves nothing more than smashing the mackems!!!

  • 17 eaststandgeordie1982 // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:46 PM

    Wow increase the stadium we dont fill now even bigger haha yes lets spend millions just to knock down listed buildings (not going to happen in a million years) to spend more millions to make the east stand massive and not fill it, sounds like a great plan ;-)

  • 18 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:46 PM

    tads…Knowing how much he loves to score against the mackems and how successful he has been at doing just that, would you start him or bring him on to inflict his damage later in the game?

  • 19 Toonboy_84 // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:47 PM

    Kets also thinks Abeid is better than Cabaye.

    I want some of what he’s smoking.

  • 20 Blaydon-Toon // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:49 PM

    TDS I know Kets gets under your skin but I find his posts very amusing not sure what planet he is from but he does manage to get the reaction he/she is looking for :-) I do not take anything he says seriously as he never backs up or adds anything positive waste of time boosting his ultra ego as proved he is a clueless idiot looking to wind people up !

  • 21 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:50 PM

    Ibiza
    Damn straight i’d start him! We didnt start him at home last season and were all over the place! Then on came shola to save the day!
    Prob only him staylor colo and krul who are fit that really understand just how massive this game is to fans! Lets be honest if we won the league and are only 2 deafeats of the season were against the mackems the season would be a write off!!!

  • 22 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:51 PM

    84…No, you really don’t :)

  • 23 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:52 PM

    Blaydon
    Problem is its more fun calling him a t**t than it is ignoring him!

  • 24 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:54 PM

    @ibiza
    Hahaha, not u too :P

  • 25 Blaydon-Toon // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:55 PM

    In the that case Kets your a TW@T :-)

  • 26 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:55 PM

    tads….I get your point to an extent. But if we won 36 and only lost 2, to said dirty unwashed b*st*rds, whilst I’d be disappointed, not sure I could call it a write off :)

    I agree though, if ever there is a game to start Shola, this is it.

    Blaydon….He/She/It is a comic genius or extremely delusional. I think you’ve guessed it right.

  • 27 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:55 PM

    Anyone else see that after pumping all those millions and millions and millions into planning, design all the PR bull that the bindippers have now pulled the plug on a new stadium and will try to re develop theres!
    Say what you like about MA but atleast we aint run like these muppets!!!

  • 28 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:56 PM

    Dannyo….No, not me too. I’m still the sarcastic p*ss take I’ve always been :)

  • 29 eaststandgeordie1982 // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:57 PM

    Ibiza have you been selling dodgy potch to kets???

  • 30 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:57 PM

    tads…Say what you want about the fools, but they show ambition and would never leave their manager without the players he needs to get the job done.

    *Falls on floor with laughter*

  • 31 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 3:59 PM

    eaststand….You know me mate, only the top quality potch, you may prefer I refer to it as purple potch?

  • 32 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:00 PM

    Blaydon
    See! Feel better? ;)

    Ibiza
    This game is tailor made for shola and given how well him and ba have linked up this season i’d start him then when they have been abused non stop by shola the mackem slayer unleash cisse on em!

  • 33 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:03 PM

    Ibiza
    You need to becareful its a long fall from that fence!! But who am i to judge the fence sitting im merely clinging on to your celebrity status!!
    So dont go to far its getting hard to hold on to your coat tails!

  • 34 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:04 PM

    Okay I am back for a short while :-) (you can start cheer now ;-) )

    Ibiza…I only read your comment quickly and I didn’t have time to answer. But as you say no one knows if Hooper would be a good signing and it certainly depends on the fee as well.

    I don’t know him well enough to say for sure.

    About Shane Long for £6M (sorry mate but you got to be kidding me) lol

    Truth to be told I don’t think much will happen in January; maybe a RB depending on Simmo and I still expect Ba to stay :-) (at least the optimist in me does)

    It is just an opinion – I might change it later ;-)

  • 35 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:06 PM

    Jesper you winker!
    Hooper would be a great signing for say £4-5 mil? But for me not as a replacement as ba

  • 36 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:08 PM

    Tads…I’m having to raise my fence higher and higher to keep common folk like yourself away. Please respect my privacy. I will jump down from time to time, but will have security, so please stop embarrassing yourself.

    As for falling off, I have the whole world waiting for such an event, surely one person will catch me?

    Jesper….Was it £6m? Maybe not then. In that case, Xisco should be starting ahead of Cisse ;)

  • 37 eaststandgeordie1982 // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:10 PM

    Ibiza ive heard thats the best potch make sure you stay away from the brown potch it fcking stinks :-)

  • 38 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:13 PM

    Ibiza
    Seeing as your new security wont let me in di you think they will mind me rummaging through your bins so i can build my own ‘poundland’ version of you?

  • 39 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:13 PM

    eaststand…I generally try and steer clear of brown potch, but sometimes you have to take what’s available, you know when supplies are short etc. Have you seen the price of potch these days? I remember when I was a young lad…..

  • 40 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:15 PM

    Ibiza…I honestly can’t remember :-) it was a wild guess (thought I heard someone mentioning 6M).

    Xisco to start against Sunderland? You’ll make Kets one happy little boy B-) lol

  • 41 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:16 PM

    tads….I’m sure we can come to some mutually beneficial arrangement. Pin your ideas to the fence and next time I pop down I’ll take a look.

    Part of the deal will be that you have to blindly tell people how wonderful I am, but I imagine that shouldn’t be a problem.

  • 42 eaststandgeordie1982 // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:16 PM

    Ibiza it would of been free in them days all kinds of potch too.

    Anyone else starting to feel sick about derby day i always do the whole week before hand.

  • 43 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:20 PM

    Jesper….Now you mention it, I do remember that figure being thrown about and thinking we had been priced out of a move. Anyway, it didn’t happen, let’s see who we have lined up.

    Yep, Xisco for the Sunderland game. I’d drop Cabaye for Abeid also. Overrated French international.

    Everyone….I am going off on an almost 100% sarcasm road, can someone give me something serious to discuss, I’m almost at the point of no return.

  • 44 numba9 // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:21 PM

    Rather we went and got Charlie Austin he would do great

  • 45 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:23 PM

    eaststand…Thanks, it was nice to reminisce. With regards to the derby, not at all. We are more than capable of getting the job done, I’ll save my angst for game time (or when I know who is fit).

  • 46 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:23 PM

    Wow just got a £60 fine for littering ibizzles fence not happy!
    And yes im sure WBA paid £6 mil for long and i think hes basically been living in there treatment room

  • 47 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:26 PM

    Numba9
    Werent we linked with him just after we were promoted? Think he’d cost a fair whack now lads been on top form

  • 48 davybtoon // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:29 PM

    Deadpool – your the talking crap, yea u can dominate a weaker team dosent mean your a dominant force
    Fact is you have to win things on a consitant basis to considered a dominant force, we played good football in the 90s n that’s about it in a period were should of dominated n guess what we didn’t even though we were playing better than anyone else we still couldn’t anything that don’t sound like a force to me

  • 49 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:31 PM

    Tads….So where is the issue? I thought we pretty much exclusively overpaid for players to be in the treatment room?

    If you pay the fine in the next 10 working days, the fine is only £40. If you’re short on cash until your next payday I can recommend a quick fix solution.

  • 50 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:34 PM

    Ibiza
    True shoulda bought him to keep vuckic company……
    Ive just taken out a wonga loan to cover my last wonga loan so by january i hopefully should of paid enough to get that elusive CB!

  • 51 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:46 PM

    tads…So you know them already? Good good, always a little nervous about making recommendations.

  • 52 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:50 PM

    Another of our youngsters getting England call up to U-17.
    Alex Gilliad.
    Looked good whenever i’ve seen him on highligts :) Gotten good reviews too.

  • 53 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 4:52 PM

    danlevy1 ?@danlevy1
    Del Bosque on Yohan Cabaye: “He’s definitely France’s most talented player in midfield. He dictates play. He’s a bit like their Xavi.”

  • 54 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:03 PM

    Dannyo
    Bit like xavi but better ;)

  • 55 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:04 PM

    @tads
    haha, my thoughts exactly.

  • 56 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:05 PM

    Cabaye is a quality player but i bet he wished he was even half as good looking as clarence acuna was!

  • 57 Big Pappa Cissé // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:06 PM

    Its a shame that games pass him by when he plays to deep. Cabaye needs to get on the ball more and the sooner Pardew realises this the better

  • 58 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:08 PM

    BPC
    True although sometimes its nout to do with him playing deep more to do with our defence or krul choosing to completly bypass midfield

  • 59 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:10 PM

    Dannyo…always nice to hear something nice about our youth :-) I must admit I know know much about any of them so I take whatever news I can get…

  • 60 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:14 PM

    And how about Nigeria considering to call up Shola for ACON?

  • 61 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:19 PM

    Dannyo
    Aye read that earlier fair play to the lad he’s been on top form this season

  • 62 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:21 PM

    @tads
    Well, if he went, we would be a striker down…
    If he gets the call, i can’t imagine how he’d say no tbh. He’s 31, all his career is missing are some caps to his name.

  • 63 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:21 PM

    Dannyo…haven’t they called him up before, but he got injured (chances are he’ll be again ;-) ) lol…sorry bad joke!

  • 64 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:22 PM

    Dannyo
    I broke out of my box to say this….Shola call up for the ACoN? We will be left with 1 striker!

  • 65 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:24 PM

    Dannyo
    Well i suppose atleast we’ve still got double dembas but we really could do with a young CF i know campbells had a few cameo’s this season but do you think he’ll feature heavily this season or even next?
    Not so sure tbh

  • 66 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:24 PM

    @WWYCD
    Erm… could u do that math for me? Cause there’s some probability math here that i’m pretty poor at.

  • 67 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:24 PM

    Yo…you doom and gloom mongor ;-) lol (we still Xisco)

  • 68 Ashton // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:26 PM

    Big Pappa Cissé

    That happens because we play 442. In the 433 system he is a completely different player in term of quality and effectiveness alas we don’t see that often because Pardew is an idiot.

    If we play 442 (with our current group of player) again after the shower of garbage last game, well… I will try my best to convince everyone I know that Pardew needs to be sacked.

  • 69 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:26 PM

    YO
    You meant 2 right?

  • 70 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:28 PM

    @tads
    No, i don’t think Adam will feature much this season, altho i want him to cause the lads got tekkers.
    If Shola goes to ACON…. Vuckic is out for the season, Sammys there tho, but that’s it outside 2xDemba.

    I still think there’d be a young striker out there to be snapped up.

  • 71 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:29 PM

    Nar havent u all read? Ba is getting flogged as soon as Jan rolls round so that leaves us with Cisse

    Though I take on board the disco is still knocking about…somewhere

  • 72 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:32 PM

    @WWYCD
    Hehe, that’s what i was guessing u ment. Cause surely u didn’t miss Tiote going to ACON… :P
    If Shola goes, i do think we’re getting a striker, a young one tho.
    However, i do hope some serious playing time drips on Campbell.

  • 73 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:32 PM

    Doom, relegation, plagues, injuries, suspensions, flood, sportsdirect arena presented by wonga…its all to come I saw it in a dream! And forgot it in abother but I have just remembered it

    :D

  • 74 BelfastMagpie // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:34 PM

    Never ever thought I’d say this lol

    Start Shola ahead of Cisse on Sunday.

    The men in white coats,will be looking for me when they read this ;-)

  • 75 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:35 PM

    YO
    Ba cant wait to go to fool i bet he’s already cable tied his hubcaps to the wheels!

    There aint no disco like a xisco disco

  • 76 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:35 PM

    Dannyo
    Haha nar I caught the aftermath of Tiote celebrating apparently the army were called in to tame him?
    We might get a young striker in during Jan but I doubt it tbh fairly low on the priorities list Id guess with Campbell and Sammy knocking about in the youth squad (still have doubts about Campbells ability to play in the PL though)

  • 77 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:36 PM

    @Belfast
    I think we’re all, secretly or (for those mentally unstable) out loud, thinking that.
    But we didn’t dare say it.

  • 78 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:36 PM

    Right, who let him out of his box? I’ve tried warning you all, Yo comes across as nice enough guy, but make no mistake, he sweats negativity.

    Get back in there, don’t make me go all Yohan on ya!

  • 79 BelfastMagpie // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:37 PM

    Jog on Ibiza you c****.

  • 80 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:39 PM

    Don’t get me started on that annoying tw@ Belfast. Nothing to contribute whatsoever. The worst of the worst. The Willo of the blog.

  • 81 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:39 PM

    toonarmydownsouth
    Aye I hear hes already pre ordered ‘This is (Kl-)Anfield’ on blu ray

    Xisco is sticking with ‘Geordie Shore’ for atleast another season, he seems to feel love could still blossum so hasen’t given up hope for the fairytale ending

  • 82 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:39 PM

    Oh yeah, what a surprise. Take a walk off a cliff mate

  • 83 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:40 PM

    Dont worry belfast you tosser we all want shola to start!

  • 84 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:41 PM

    Ah ha lock picking skills have increased through hours of boredom! Let my darkness infect u all!

  • 85 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:42 PM

    @WWYCD
    U doubt Campbell due to his physique then i take it? Don’t blame you, allot of those thoughts there.
    It depends how good he is tho, or will become. If he’s good enough, he’ll work it to his advantage.
    But he’ll only learn how to do that through experience.
    He keeps banging them in at U-21.
    He’s an intelligent striker, who fits a nr. 10 role too.
    I think he has what it takes to make it.

  • 86 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:43 PM

    Just reading the Shola / Nigeria article.

    “I’ve been watching him closely and he’s got something unique.”

    “He will definitely bring something different to the attack.”

    Unique and different. Probably the best words to describe wor Shola as far as traditional strikers are concerned.

  • 87 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:45 PM

    Yo…Lock picking you say….you sure you’re not a scouser? Would explain where your negativity comes from too.

    I realise I’ve just pulled out one of the ultimate insults, I hope you took it in the manner it was meant….you negging b*st*rd.

  • 88 BelfastMagpie // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:47 PM

    Aye hes very small and easily pushed around and thats at reserve level I have the feeling when faced with rough PL CBs he might just get lost but I cant see into the future haha he might be Messi-ish if he can develop his balance to ungodly quality ;)

    I feel he would always need to partner someone in a striker role though which may be a issue in our team

    For me campbell is a prize candidate for loan too good for the reserves but long way to go for the first team

  • 91 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:49 PM

    Well, I’m… ermm…. proud of that as well (he says unconvincingly). Now p*ss off you moronic tw@.

  • 92 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:49 PM

    @WWYCD
    Well, he’s also used to a nr. 10 role, i could really see him excelling there.

  • 93 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:51 PM

    Ibiza
    Calling me a negative nelly is one thing but SCOUSE?! Uncalled for haha

    If Belfast is Willo and Ibiza is Xisco can I be Simmo? I feel I fit the bill am pretty solid and reliable but I am randomly hated? :D

    Anyone says I am fing Perch blood will flow

  • 94 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:52 PM

    @tads
    Aye, that he is, i read an interview from the Gateshead manager today that he had inquired about Curtis Good and Campbell.
    Good for them i say :)

  • 95 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:52 PM

    Yo…It was a bit below the belt and I do apologise. I think Simmo is a fair call, statistically sound, but most sensible people can see the reality ;)

  • 96 obatoyou // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:52 PM

    Love listening to you guys bicker, nothin better to do.

  • 97 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:55 PM

    Oba…You seem to be giving your love out a bit too easily. Kind of cheapens it a little. Did I say cheap? Would that make you the blogs Ashley?

    P.S. Do you have any topics to discuss? We need controlling, Dannyo is trying to get us debating, but he doesn’t seem to have us sussed at the minute.

  • 98 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:55 PM

    Dannyo
    True but we dont really play with a no10 player currently and judging by our purchase of Anita and having our RW have a free role I cant see us moving into using it for aslong as we can keep HBA happy

    Time will tell though mate I look forward to seeing him progress, I really liked the look of Inman as well (Sammy clearly, Moyo and I feel Good will turn out to be a decent buy) so our youth could have some good players but I dont expect many of them to actually make it…its rare they do tbf

  • 99 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 5:59 PM

    Ibiza
    Haha its alright lad I can accept it was meant as a joke ;) . Sensible people on here? What u been smoking?

  • 100 Ketsbaia9 // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:00 PM

    That’s what Liverpool are doing. Also, Abeid has the potential to be better than Cabaye. Cabaye is too inconistent and had only one stand out game against Aston Villa away last season.

  • 101 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:02 PM

    Kets….What are Liverpool doing?

    Are you softening your stance a bit on Cabaye vs Abeid? Now it’s potential? Not having a go, that is a much more understandable viewpoint.

  • 102 Ketsbaia9 // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:02 PM

    We nearly fill the ground every week. If we made the Champions League, we’d have an even bigger fanbase. We are probably the most popular club in the league.

  • 103 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:03 PM

    Yo….I think the newest member to this discussion proves my point about sensible posters. As for my choice of smoke, would you like some, it takes the edge off :)

  • 104 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:05 PM

    @WWYCD
    Aye, that’s fair enough, i still see it as highly possible for Adam to make it tho.
    Another one that i saw just a few weeks back is Remie Streeete, that lad has gained some serious muscle over the summer.
    He should be returning late this month i think.

    Moyo, i’m worried about him tbh, he’s one under the radar atm, several others standing out, i have hopes, but doubts at the same time.
    Inman is a great midfielder, lots of pace and a keen eye for goal. A quicker Nolan if he makes it?
    And the little i’ve seen of Good, he looks a player in the making, but a loan would do him good.

  • 105 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:05 PM

    Ibiza
    Haha in comedy timing is everything ;) and if I had some I feel I would understand better where Kets is coming from…is that to mean to say?

  • 106 Ibizatoon - Back by popular demand // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:10 PM

    Yo….To answer that I’d have to get off my fence (Yes, this joke is sticking around a while – not like me to drag things out *coughs*).

  • 107 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:14 PM

    Dannyo
    Oh aye its possible he might well become the next Owen for all I know I just have doubts.
    I havent seen Streete since before his injury so I cant comment really he is still very young though…younger than Campbell isnt he?

    Aye Moyo doesnt seem to grab the headlines lately but he had some nice skills when I saw him and he changed the game so who knows.
    Inman a quicker Nolan possibly mate his style of play is very similar and his goal scoring record is impressive, didnt seem a leader to me though
    Good seems like a Colo type player to me but very young and needs a lot more time before PL, loan would be great but it leaves our reserves with no defenders and they are in a competitive league these days so not sure he would benefit hugely from a really low league loan

  • 108 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:15 PM

    Ibiza
    Haha well when ur ready that intervension is waiting for u ;) and nar mate u let this go without a second thought :D

  • 109 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:18 PM

    YO
    Perch kinda suits you to be fair perchiniYO

    Kets
    So if we nearly fill the ground then thats not filling it so wheres the point in adding another 25,000? Not to mention the small detail that you would never in a million years get permission to turf people out there homes and demolish LISTED buildings

    As for abied im going to say the same thing i say every time
    He has NEVER played a competitive league game in his career……..ever you have absolutly no basis for this

  • 110 karasu // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:19 PM

    Well, some good news regarding some of our younglings. Here’s some bad news regarding some of our younglings:

    http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1190261/newcastle-striker-nile-ranger-convicted-of-assault?cc=4716

    Not exactly “convicted”. “Conditional discharge”.

  • 111 numba9 // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:20 PM

    I think we could sign Austin and afford it and defenders

  • 112 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:20 PM

    @WWYCD
    I have only seen Moyo in highlights, so that’s all i really know of him, cause he’s rarely spoken of or interviewed in any shape or form.
    I see Good as that calm authorotive figure too, much like Collo. Should be exciting.
    Remie and Campbell are born in the same year i think.
    When AP said Remie was physically ready last year, he was right. Bags of muscles for a young lad.

    There’s Lubo Satka, also getting rave reviews atm, not a physically large lad, but fairly tall i think.
    But u are props right on the ammount of defenders, might shoot ourselfes in the foot there.
    But then again, how important are the reserve leagues really?

  • 113 Dannyo // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:21 PM

    When i say that last line there, i mean, should the reserves hold back a player who may be further ahead in development?

  • 114 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:29 PM

    toonarmydownsouth
    I AM NOTHING LIKE BLEEDING PERCH!

    Dannyo
    Aye agree on Moyo had I not see him live I would question who he was tbh peobably wont make it all things considered but u never know.
    Oh I thought Streete was a year younger need to brush up on my player ages haha though if he is strong enough for the PL now surely he would of seen some cup games? Maybe injury held him back who knows.
    I know nothing of Satka tbh never seen him or heard anything real about him so cant comment on him

    The reserve league is meant to be quite competitive apparently, seems to have more backing behind it and it affects the club more apparently. Plus if he stays with us he gets our training and staff to aid him whereas if he goes to Gateshead he has low level part time trainers and training techniques and the level of players he is with is dramatically lower than at NUFC not sure how it balances out really

  • 115 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:34 PM

    Karasu
    Pardew has made it very clear that nike the plastic gangsta ranger will never play for the toon again
    Does anyone know if this lad even goes to training anymore??

    Dannyo
    I always try to keep a bit grounded about young players coming through so many hit the skids unfortunatly ranger and morrison bieng prime examples with there attitudes then theres others like tozer and kadar who cant seem to make that jump between potential and fulfilling that potential

  • 116 toonarmydownsouth // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:35 PM

    WWYCD
    Not a big craig david fan either then!!

  • 117 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:40 PM

    So who got stuck with the Willo and Simmo etiquette? (and costing us the good blog mood ;) ) lol

  • 118 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:40 PM

    toonarmydownsouth
    Haha nar but I bet Perch is :)

  • 119 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:51 PM

  • 120 obatoyou // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:52 PM

    :) at work dealin blackjack, only get ten mins to read blog on the loo, couldn’t make much discussion. Still love u Ibiza. Do u think England can beat Poland, might be a tough game for us.

  • 121 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 6:54 PM

    Shhh the negative nature of the blog has taken over us all and we have been lulled into a deep depressive state…its peaceful here

  • 124 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:01 PM

    *(whispering at the top of my lungs)

    …I’ll try to keep it down :) we wouldn’t want to wake up the negative doom mongors lol

    I must admit I was beginning to like the sound of silence (frightening though isn’t it :) )

  • 125 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:03 PM

    “Hello darkness, my old friend
    I’ve come to talk with you again
    Because a vision softly creeping
    Left its seeds while I was sleeping
    And the vision that was planted in my brain
    Still remains
    Within the sound of silence”

  • 126 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:03 PM

    jesper
    Haha if only Angryfan would appear now that would be a great ending :D

    Nar lad not sure where everyones disappeared too. Cant say I dislike the silence tbh

  • 127 WWYCD // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:05 PM

    Love that song

  • 128 Tsunki // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:06 PM

    If you like I could kill the blog stone dead for you.

  • 129 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:11 PM

    Tsunki…I think that might have happened already ;)

    …right now Yo and I and just enjoying the sound of silence!

    Yo…That is a great song (almost felt like singing it, but wouldn’t want to break the silence ;) ) lol

  • 130 Rotonda heights // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:11 PM

    it seems no one has the appetite to sack ranger for any one of his endless offences now.

    re – the derby just hope pards won’t stick his head in the sand and continue with the ba and Cisse 442. We’re getting too far behind now if we are going to get 5th again.

  • 131 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:16 PM

    Yo…regarding Angryfan, how do you summon him? It like Beatlejuice :D lol

    Rotonda…I am pretty sure you can count on AP playing 4-4-2 against ‘the unwashed’. I would be very surprised if he would make my day and play 4-3-3 :)

  • 132 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:22 PM

    Tsunki…was that you killing the blog for real this time?

  • 133 jesperfuglsang // Oct 15, 2012 at 7:24 PM

    Jesper…just want to be letting you know, since you are the only one here, that I’ll be signing out for now (cafetiere coffee time ;) )
