Let's get this club back where it belongs™
Soldato
At least there's still 3 of us around when we are back down in the doldrums 
I've been impressed with the signings so far, we need a new CB and another CM mind. Rumours that Streete will be making the first team this year as RB, apparently Rafa hadn't been letting him leave on loan.

Count me in!
Where do you belong?
A friend of mine is a toon fan, and very much isn't happy with mid-table finishes. So where do you think you should you be?
Soldato
The phrase is a stupid one, really, but it's one that will be used a lot this season. We're exactly where we belong after years of poor management.

Lets hope Sissoko's performance last night makes him worth a silly amount of money so we can finally sell this useless player for an over inflated fee.
Hoping to see plenty of Ayoze Perez next season (if he stays) and good to see Jesus is finally a magpie. How can Newcastle NOT finish top this season?
Which player do you lot think will be the stand out one this season?

Really like the new strip and love the way Raffa is ripping the club apart from on field and off to rebuild.
At lest trying for success...... How many times where we bummed out of the cups at the early stages form fielding weaken teams?
We are still one of the top 20 richest clubs in the world and that's with us being run like a shambles.
How many times have we finished midtable over the past few years?
Since we got back into the premiership I can remember 3 relegation battles

In for the season

Mid table premier league side who focuses on going for a cup every year and I would be extremely happy. Without a mega bucks owner we will never be a top club again unless we somehow pull a Leicster
Anyone know much about that Hayden lad we've signed?

there is a club kit thread

finally some rather good looking kits! If it weren't for Wonga being on it, id buy the away kit in a heartbeat
Soldato
Good luck Geordie funsters 
don't take too long getting back up. Even though I'm a smoggie I want you back making the NE a hot bed again with the 3 teams in the top flight

Looks like we've had a strong pre-season run. The new signings seem fairly good and although we've lost a few decent players, we've also cut a lot of the chaff.
I'm optimistic for the coming season, hoping we can do even better than the last time we were in the Championship.

I tend not to follow pre-season, but yes, it does look like we've been doing reasonably well.
I'm happy with the signings we've made - quite a few players who'll be up for a long battle and who have experience at this level. We really lacked experience last season (due to the buy-to-resell transfer policy) so it's good to see Rafa changing things. Hopefully someone will come in for Sissoko and Thauvin then we can use those funds to get a couple more in.
Is there any indication of whether Armstrong will be loaned out or stay?

Apparently they have an agreement with Coventry that if pre-season goes well he stays, if Rafa isn't convinced he goes on loan to them again. Considering Rafa has hardly gave him a minute I expect to see him off.
