Souness for the heave ho out of Newcastle soon?

The defender Boumsong is a liabilty on what I saw today. Incapable of making a forward pass and gifted Man Utd two goals.
Did Newcastle REALLY pay 8 million pounds for this guy?

Newcastle need goals and could do worse than bring in Earnshaw for peanuts. He is not getting a start at West Brom it seems again this season.

Owen agrees 4 year deal subject to medical. SESL/clap.gif SESL/clap.gif SESL/clap.gif

Saves Souness for a bit longer methinks!!!

Owen agrees 4 year deal - subject to get out clause after 1 year ??? SESL/awall.gif

No clauses, and no JJ either! SESL/clap.gif

Great 3-0 away win for Newcastle at Blackbum.

Could Newcastle have turned the corner now?

Could Boumsong and Bramble be a solid partnership Souness craves?

Could Bellemy be made to look any more a fool for signing for Blackbum?

...we still didn't look that good. But at leaset with a goalscorer in the team confidence should grow...

...just need some invention and flare now.

I was convinced Bellamy would score against us! Our old players always seem to do that.

Souness has another extension methinks, but it can't be the best way to get the best out the players if they think the boss is to be sacked in the next few games?

In Football Manager game, 3 Newcastle players have just been the top 3 WORLD footballers of the year!

I am wondering if FM game written by a Geordie then!

No way 3 players from same team would win World Footballer of Year, and certainly not 3 from Newcastle! I am shocked by this as I thought FM was a realistic game!

I agree. Michael Owen may not be the best player in the world, but he will score goals wherever he plays.
He has almost singlehandedly got Newcastle in to top half of table.
Bet Liverpool could do with his goals in the Premiership just now!

Could Newcastle be on a dead end road now?

Fans chanting for manager Souness to go last night I heard.

I've given up on them now. It's too depressing and frustrating! I'm gonna just follow my other team now instead (Newcastle Falcons) They aren't doing very well either but at least you get the impression the players give their best in rugby!

The players come and have a pint in the clubhouse after each game (win, draw or lose) and have a chat with us (the supporters) - can you imagine that happening at St James?

I still feel a little sorry for Souness as his team hasn't really had a fair run without injuries to key players etc -- but I'm sure there is a sob story at every club!

Without Owen we don't look capable of scoring!!! SESL/abigcry.gif

I think Newcastle Utd would make a great FM challenge next time.

Given, Boomsong, Bramble, Solano, Parker, Luque & Owen for starters.

Been warned to watch out for the chairman - he can screw things up. And demands wages are reduced from the start.

SeslDotNet- 12-09-2005
Pressure maybe off Souness now he knows he wont be dragged back to manage Rangers as McLeish is staying!

I think Souness can make top 10 this season which is fair enough given the lack of strikers cover (M.Owen injured and Shearer past it)
