Peter Beardsley mentioned it in his talk-in the other week. He sounds well up for it!

Was Nobby one of your favourite players? Want to do something to say thanks for his time at NUFC?
Even if he wasn't, do something positive today and give some of your spare cash to help the people of Peru recover from the recent devastating earthquake.Click the picture below: (Links to: Save The Children) Sorry for the f****** huge sig.

Decent enough game. Classic Ferdinand - Shearer combination for Big Al's second. Beardsley scored a classic as well, jinking his way into the box.

NUFC ratings based on all-time NUFC form.
Ashley - 7, Mort - 6 Allardyce - 6.5 Given - 7.5, Harper - 6.5, Krul - 5.1 Carr - 2, Beye - 5, Taylor - 5.5, Rozehnal - 5.5, Cacapa - 6.5, Faye - 6, Ramage - 4, Edgar - 5, Babayaro - 2, Enrique - 5.5 Geremi - 5.5, Butt - 6, Emre - 5.5, Smith - 5, Barton - 5, Milner - 6.5, N'Zogbia - 7, Duff - 4.5, Pattison - 4.5 Owen - 6, Martins - 7, Viduka - 5.5, Ameobi - 6, Carroll - 5
Recent Changes: Ashley - Up 0.5 for being a legend. Allardyce - Up 0.5 for bringing back the fortress, and new signings doing very well. Faye and Cacapa - Up 0.5 for being formidable defenders.
N.B. New arrivals start at 5, recent performances carry stronger weighting, and lengthly spells on the sideline injured can reduce rating.
