I can, and it makes me happy

Sounds enthusiastic and knows what's expected of him. Also probably knows his competition is Jig/Foster depending on where he's best suited!

Agreed, but qualification is the main aim. I'm just glad something happened to add a bit of excitement to watching the games.

"Bigirimana is an athletic central midfielder who signed for the Magpies from Coventry in the summer of 2012 for a fee believed to be in the region of £1m. The 21-year old Burundi-born attacker has made 23 appearances for Newcastle and won the Championship Apprentice of the Year award for 2011/12 whilst at Coventry." Promising

Agreed

Always find it weird how they say this - makes it sound like they all live at St James' in bunk beds

Thankfully signing a manager can be done anytime. Fingers crossed something happens in the next week or so. If you were being an optimist you might think the board wouldn't foist 5 players on an unsuspecting manager, meaning they've plans to bring someone new in....very optimistic thinking though.

Yeah, the video means nothing. Like others have said you could make Temps look like Maradona in a highlight reel. I'll go on what others who've watched him are saying. And they seem pretty positive.

Jogra on mate

You'd hope so - I'd expect 1/2 the full time professional players in the world to be good enough for this league.

I'd love it if we started every single one of them in our next game, dropped Jig and Foster and played Clark up front. Would be the most excited I've been watching a game in three years. Not that I can vouch for any of them being any good, just that I can guarantee the current lot are pish.

A few good things in there but why make a video of every pish corner and cut out pass?!

I hope that's not his 'highlight' reel.

This could be very, very interesting. Imagine playing week-in, week-out. Training with the same 30 or so players then all of a sudden, without any warning whatsoever, 5 new faces turn up and are expected by a large section of the support to be starting straight away. Puts a lot of pressure on the manager and an even bigger amount on the players who could be dropped. THANK FUCK!

To be fair Lovenkrands would probably say that anyway to be polite to ex-team mates

That's an appropriate typo!

Blimey!

This could be a massive lift for everyone at the club. 3 or 4 lads that know each other well and can help each other fit in. Sent here with a mission - to win promotion. Six months out of their lives to achieve something that wouldn't be easily forgotten by our support. If I was a fringe player anywhere I'd jump at the chance to come restore a sleeping giant to their rightful position and prove I've got what it takes to be in a winning side week after week.

Go enjoy your victory ya clown.

Sounds like McCall would take the job if offered.

Fair point. Shit all round

Simonsens fault

Terrrrrrrible defending

Anyone else think some of our best players are the bench? What's shiels and temps fitness like right now?
