      Joey Barton and Viduka to Newcastle
      Jun 05, 2007 05:59:15 pm
      Barton for £5.5 million?  On the face of it a decent bit of business - he's a decent player.

      Just a nutcase!  Pretty sure he will have broken Owen's nose after a training ground bust up by November.

      Also going in for everyone's favourite fat striker, Viduka.  I've always quite liked Viduka.  Even though I wouldn't have him in our team, he has given hope to us all that you can still go down the pub, sink a few pints, have a bit of a beer belly, and score great goals in the Premiership.

      Viduka and Owen up front then?  ???

      Barton is a scumbag IMO, wouldn't have in my squad if I was managing a pub team.

      Always liked Viduka, I was saying at the start of this season he would have been a decent addition.

      What makes you say that?  You should know from our own club that having 4 top strikers is important - especially with Newcastle's injury record.  We all know they are sh*t, but they are always 'aiming' at being a top club.  Just because Martins is staying is not a reason for Owen to leave.  Viduka would hardly be a 50 game a season man.

      Oh hang on, Newcastle will play in the FA Cup and League Cup + 38 league games... that'll be 40 games then.

      agreed, I've always thought the same mate, Viduka would be a fantastic aquisiton for us coz he puts the ball in the back of the net, perfect replacement for Robbie and proven whereas I don't know much about Voronin but from what you guys say about him, I'm not expecting too much.

      Suppose you're right, just speculation surrounding Owen. Not saying he will be here and signing on the dotted line for Liverpool in the Summer.

      Viduka and Ameobi will be the bench warmers for Newcastle next season...

      I never ever saw these two things happening ever!

      I think they need to get rid of their back line, get a new one in.. I reckon give them 2 seasons and they will be challenging with Arsenal, Man Ure and Chavski for 4th place (we will be top) ;)

      I love your optimism Nic, it always makes me smile!
      They got rid of Bramble as soon as Big Sam walked in the door, had a shocker last season so I can see them working hard in the market for defenders.  Have to say, Castle were probably the worst team to play at Anfield last year, couldn't string 2 passes together, dreadful, but under "Captain Charisma" it must have been hard to get up for any game, going to be a different prospect with Sam's team I think.

      Bramble is blydi funny though!! He doesn't belong in the Premiership. Or The Championship.. Or League 1 or 2 for that matter I don't think!

      Hehe I'm not always optimistic, I just think Big Sam can sort them out :)
