could every one stop twisting about ba going every one was twisting about nolan and barton going even makems where saying we where doomed but whats barton or nolan done since leaving...and i think we have bought better in than what left any one agree...

Yeah but you take away Ba's goals and you would have the worst goals scored in the league, why did he have a buy out clause in his contract I wonder? obvious coz your club is a stepping stone for him to go to a bigger club

Fact is he is playing for us and scoring for us. U can't take is goals away, just another smb dreaming again!

Stop being jealous cos your top scorer is larsson on all of 4 wow what strikers you have!!SMB

Yes we have larsson on four and ba has about 15 but if ba is sold or his knees pack up where do you turn? we have players all over the park who are scoring so we arent relying on one player as you have to. by the way yous have scored 29 in league we have scored 27 again proof we not relying on one person like you. could go all wrong for you

No ba=no goals simple maths coz who else will score? ben arfa on the grand total of 1 goal?

Make that 2 Ben arfa goals! Guiterrez 2 goals. U smb's are all ifs buts n maybes. Look at the facts!

Jason Prior's trials at newcastle has gone well. .almost 100 goals in 2 and half seasons in a 5 tier below club is not bad. . .considering he uses standard size ball and goalposts but the question is does he have the quality? Ed any news? {Ed001's Note - all I know is his trial is said to have gone well and he was hoping he had done enough to earn a contract.}

Isn't he on a 2-week trial? he only started it few days ago right? {Ed001's Note - I don't know the details, I am not there watching training, I am just going on what I was told by someone who is involved with the club. Whether they are not as clued up as they like to make out or not, I only have their word on the matter until something official comes from the club or the lad (or his reps) say something.}

Cheers Ed, wasn't having a go, just wasn't sure about the details of the trial, like yourself. cheers for the info, hopefully he does well enough to be signed up, will be cheap and could get ranger and lovenkrands off the books. {Ed001's Note - it's ok mate, no one is infallible and if anyone can add more info it is always appreciated. Trials are very difficult to get good info on, people watching on will often tell you the player has been brilliant and must get a contract but then nothing happens. I once spoke to an ex-manager about a mate of mine, who had a trial at the club he was managing at the time, the manager said he didn't impress at all. But one of the coaches had told me he was really impressive and he had recommended signing him. The lad did get a pro contract elsewhere due to his recommendation, but it shows how subjective they can be!}

Redknapp says he'd like to get Ba when he's available, in a months time. Sick of clubs running out for our players. :-(

Always unsettles players like our gyan

I saw in some site that,since BA was a free transfer his release clause fee could be around £5m,just as Ben Corgnet of Dijon that we were following(£4.5m) has a release clause of £5.8m . . .is it true Ed, can a club lose a player on this ground?has it happened before? {Ed001's Note - it can happen, it has happened in the past.}

ED, im not sure if this works out correct but theres a lot of talk and guessing that tiote and BA could leave in this window but wont it be hard for either of them to secure a move when they both in africa for up to 6 weeks and what with the african nationional FA insisting they all attend to their respective teams on time and not be granted any extra time, that its unlikely they will be afforded the luxury of leaving their camps for arduous trips back to europe in the the middle of a tournament to secure thses said deals! window will be shut in 6 weeks? just a thought but im not too sure!....spenny mag {Ed001's Note - they would just take their medicals out there, though it is unlikely to happen.}

Why not ? BA may well be off if harrys wants him you dont but release clause in for nothing

Agents can do the deal, there are fax machines to send the paperwork, easily done geordie

Agents cant sign contracts though!

Steve Kean admits that rovers will have to listen to offers for Hoilett. We should definitely be pursuing him, need some competition for the wingers, Jonas and Obertan have been very poor recently in my opinion

Id take hoillett in a shot! lads got bags of pace and has a canny shot on him too! think he would do great in a side like ours that has hieght and better players in it! still think he will go to liverpool like its been rumoured tho!....spenny mag

tomkins, samba and defoe all spotted in a church in newcastle, when asked why they were praying they said hoping to fail their medicals so they don't have to sign for them and the cartoon army

Who was spotted in a seaham hotel the summer nzogbia!!!
jog on SMB

Haha Only thing funny is your pylophicy.. if they didn't want to pass a medical why would they accept the approach so why the need to pray..... (ain't coming anyway)

They didn't their agents did and they being forced out their clubs, sound familiar oh wait isn't that what happens to your players, watch this space BA,KRUL and TIOTE soon even maybe CABAYE and COLOCINI aswell

You obviously highly rate our players that's why you banging on about them all leaving. Strange that since you smb always saying your team better than our's.

Agents don't decide transfers unless it's 007

Yeah not being funny but a player can't be forced to sign a contract...... that's against the law.

That's the curse of having good players I'm afraid. When you get some you might know the feeling. Until then you just let us Toon fans worry about our own players and you toddle off with your toys

Maybe, just maybe ,ashley might give some money(more than £8m) from virgin deal to pardew to cement our europe spot. . .

What europe spot, one win and your in dream land again, get a grip fool

Green doesn't suit u!!

Bookies offering 11/2 on us finishing in the top 6. Worth a punt I think.

Makems are 33/1 to finish top 6 and 16/1 to be relegated. The later looks value to me.

Relegated?? off the GOON ALE clown

The steam behind the appointment generally starts to wear off! we dont need to take pops at the mackems or suggest they will go down or even tell them how good or bad they are! we just need to point at the table as it stands and tell them to look! they will try giving it the whole "wait till may" rubbish but like them it doesnt wash!....spenny mag
