Good maybe they'll come back to the US for a preseason tour and where the team can't contract any virii...
 
 Sounds like a good time to make a move on Berbatov to me.

 Why wouldn't they try to get a few quid for him? He could walk onto any premiership team imo.

Agreed.    Is there something else behind the scenes like a move back to his original squad or something?
 
 Maybe Calvin Klein will support an American Squad and he can play for them?

supposedly, smith is playing no part in today's friendly, despite no other strikers being healthy. sounds like a done deal  

[vansmack]

I don't know if I can watch as many Newcastle matches without Smith.  He always kept it exciting because the more goals the Toon gave up, the more likely it was he was going to do something stupid and great a straight red.

[godsshoeshine]

he's on £60k a week!    :eek:   for 0 goals!
 
 if felt like he was gone once kev said he only saw him as a forward. hopefully they'll go get that big swiss kid
 
 it was fun to watch him say "OH FUCK OFF" like 5 times a game

Eren Derdiyok.  Killed my Euro fantasy team but I still like him.
