Roberto Carlos going the other way.....

God knows how he done it, but now he's passed his medical and is now officialy a Real Madrid player, I just can't believe it - a Boro lad playing for Real Madrid. I used to see him round the town! Unbelievable (in a good sense).

Asif keeping a clean sheet against the best team in the world wouldn't have been hard enough already......Boro's back four all go and injure themselves - that's right - our entire back four is out injured.

Bollocks :frown:

Arsenal are gonna rip us to shreds.

How can Woodgate be worth 13.4 million pounds, and Owen only 8 million. :confused:

Just shows what a snip of a deal Real got.

Because Owen only had a year left on his contract, and Woodgate had... more than a year.

Kily Gonzalez to Spurs?

I wonder if this is going to be the next big deal of this transfer window.

ok Forlan goes to Villareal, so Man U only has Smith upfront, with RVN and Saha out?

It's a possibility, along with Michael Carrick, Steve Finnan and a French defender.

This lad saw Gaizka Mendieta in B&Q yesterday complaining about the prices of bathrooms - stormed out without buying one. Quite interesting, I thought.

On reflection, having the back 4 out won't be that bad - we do afterall have the best defence in the country and also have a really deep squad, so our replacements aren't half bad either. Could keep a clean sheet.

.......okay, okay, I'm kidding myself - Arsenal to hit double figures anyone?

Still seems like idiocy to let a player of Woodgates quality go so easily, especially with the defensive incapabailities that are inherent at Newcastle - Although player power dictates in these times the board seem to have done little to try and keep him. The fee is reasonable though.
