May as well sign in now.

Me too. Leicester. Back where we belong. Never quite good enough.



Most competitive division in the League, this.

It's going to be a very interesting league. I'm looking forward to the experience.

If he does he's mad even if he is a Celtic fan. You get your team in the Premier League and then resign and go to Scotland to take part in a two horse race that you have a 50/50 chance of winning or you pit your wits againgst Ferguson, Benitez etc......

Easy choice......Burnley. Celtic will wait two years.

Or 1

Yes. One year might be enough.

Yes, the return of the mighty Championship thread.



Hello Newcastle.



Leicester open 2009/10 at home to a Martinez-less Swansea.

Newcastle away to their fellow PL rejects a Mowbray-less West Brom.

Bring it on. Mid-table mediocrity a go go.

Tony Mowbray - Celtic manager.

And?

Tough opening game for the Magpies.

Roberto di Matteo leaves MK Dons to manage West Brom in the Championship. Couldn't resist the lure of the Newcastle away kit, obviously. Not to mention renewing his acquaintance with the Foxes.

And?

Is your support of Everton merely down to an accident of birth, rather than anything you have actually contributed or done, or are you just a fair weather supporter who latches on to coat-tails?



Either way, it's no reason to look down on others.

See your post on Wed 17 June

That was because in my previous post I had made reference to a Mowbray-less West Brom. I would've have thought everyone with the slightest interest would know that Mowbray had already [ilong[/i gone to Celtic, so it seemed to be a 'Pope is Catholic' type post. My query was genuine.

My perception of your post was 'So what? Who give's a monkeys about lesser leagues?' Perhaps I was wrong. I was just relaying what I thought was some interesting and [itopical[/i news to those interested in the Championship.

Thats why i put a

in there as it a lil sarcastic/ tongue in cheek!

The Newcastle defence are forming a boy band - to be called Goals Allowed.

We have the best defence in the league at the moment!

Good news - Joe Kinnear is fit and well.
Bad news - he still wants to be manager at Newcastle.

The Championship better watch out - Shola's on fire.

Was it arson?



You got a pre-season vs Leeds?

Took his two goals pretty well today, shame he missed a sitter to complete a hat-trick though.

Yep. Huddersfield away next up, then Leyton Orient away followed by Leeds at home with Dundee away completing our pre-season.

Friendly result yesterday Leyton Orient 6 Newcastle 1

They won 7-2 last week so I would not read too much into it.

If they lose 6-1 to WBA in their first game take it seriously but until then I think you can still expect them to be a force this season.
