I think it's just funny how people are still voting, some for Liverpool too. :D

Well, if Newcastle play pants this season, he's got a get-out clause if he's unhappy.

Yep, Liverpool were winning by miles. But since he has gone to Newcastle they are winning the poll!

Newcastle clearly are a big club. A club's size isn't made by it's trophy cabinet. As always, it's the fans that make the club.

Pretty ignorant to think they aren't to be honest.

Yes, Newcastle had a bad finish last season, as well as that season we finished 13th under Sir Bobby. Look at our other final standings and I think you'll see a kind of pattern.

Although admittedly, Liverpool are a bigger club in terms of trophies, they have won more league championships than all other teams, yet I wouldn't call them the biggest club in England.

A club is only ever judged by what they have won......which is why newcastle are never seen as a decent club.

Liverpool fans flock to the clubs ground to see trophies paraded whilst newcastle go to see trophy signings. Therein lies the difference between the clubs. Yes, newcastle are a big club in terms of fanbase...unfortunately for you dear fellow fans dont win trophies, the players do. You have bought one decent ex-liverpool player....now you have to get decent signings to fit in with him.

Good luck for the season......20 - 25 goals have now been guaranteed, trophies are not.

I have just seen on the telly that the Newcastle fans were singing "are you watching Liverpool?" (they sung it badly by the way).

They are asking us if we are watching? Were they watching on May 25th? At the press conference today you could see that Owen was gutted to be joining them, the kept going on about how he wanted to join Liverpool and how he was dissapointed that Real never let him. How does it feel to be second best Newcastle fans?

Sure you have a lot of fans, but Liverpool have the best fans in the world (and that cant be denied). But good luck to you Mickey, you were and Anfield legend.

no - he has no such clauses.

He was supposedly meant to have a get out clause allowing him to leave for ?12 million next summer. But he doesnt have that partiticular clause.

However, Snoopy he does have several clauses in his contract.

Reports said Owen has a clause allowing him to leave after a year, but Magpies chairman Freddy Shepherd denies this.

"I have heard a little rumour that Michael has a clause in his contract which states he can leave Newcastle United in one year's time," he said.

"I can tell you now that he hasn't. Of course Michael has clauses in his contract.

"In this day and age, all top players do - Alan Shearer does. But that is not one of them. "

Seems Newcastle have also got Nobby from aston villa for 1.5m

so you buy a whole new team and what precisely will portsmouth achieve?

Avoid relegation if you are lucky....i am not disrespecting your team, i just think that too much change too quickly can only be a bad thing. Its a good job you have such a good loyal set of fans because in m eyes your season is not looking too hopeful!!

I've tipped Pompey for relegation this season, along with sunderland and wigan :)

We will disprove you :p

Pompey haven't got much money. We are now only 7mill in debt. The staduim is falling to bits so thats getting improved.

Milan Mandric has already wiped of 20million of debt. Going to bulid pompey village with his money so the club can get money from shops. And is looking for a place to bulid a new training ground.

Our players from last season where always injury prone, old and asking for high wages.

Spending money doesn't mean you stay up, Ask the likes of west ham :)

Also I suspect a win against Everton now, Our team has come on leaps and bound are playing as team, They've only been with each other for like a month and a half.

Losing Harry Redknapp was a big blow and I don't think Portsmouth have been the same since. Changed managers more than once there's been too much change definitely. I can only see a bottom 5 finish I can't see them finishing any higher with all due respect to the Portsmouth fans I just don't see a good season ahead.

True a good season may not be ahead, i was pretty anoyed at the loss of harry redknap since he said he couldn't work under a sporting director. Who then took control of the team manging no wins.

But we have Alain Perrin Who i'm sure some of you had some bad luck but also good luck.

Even thou we had change in nearly every single area in the club it in fact a good thing money wise is alot more secure.

Player wise not to sure but i think only one player will be a flop and thats the loan Karadas.

Well enough of little old portsmouth

i can't wait to see owen play again in england. I think everyone who supports england will be looking at new castle next match

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
