Agreed, but if he plays will Roy use him in his new central role? Picking Carrick is a strange one, just come back from longish injury and when he's picked him for the squad in the past, he's hardly ever played him. Maybe Roy has serious doubts about Wilshere in the DM role...

What are these essentials? IMO the main essential to be successful in the modern game is an owner with deep pockets who's willing to put his hands in them, and/or a large commercial revenue stream, neither of which Newcastle have got.

Also helps not to sell your best player and not replace him e.g. Cabaye...

Don't know what papers you were reading but City and their fans (lack of) got an absolute pasting from the media...

Well at least they have a striker who can score goals, perhaps your shower might want to stick in a ridiculous bid and add him to the the other players you've over paid for?

Let's face it you need a sense of humour to support the rags at the moment don't you? All that money spent and City waving down at you.

      Fireworks

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Sadly, but not unreasonably, councils find it difficult to justify such expenditure on their current budgets. My family, which does like fireworks have been enjoying the displays by those still with disposable wealth by viewing them from Hilly Fields. Other hills (Dawson Heights) are available. For children who have autumn and winter birthdays, a firework display is some consolation for their birthday climate. My grandchildren, being summer babies, can enjoy garden parties and picnics. Without the need for explosions and dazzling display.

      Fireworks

      By Sue · Posted

      Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
