upto 26th december he has scored 28 goals in 30 games
scored in 9 consecutive games from october til 6th december totalling 15 goals in that period

How are things on the striker front Ed? Will we really not get a striker this window? None of us wants to believe it, is there any indication of this might being a smoke screen of some sort?
I really do think we desperatly need that striker tbh. {Ed001's Note - it is strange, after spending all that time trying to sign one, then to come out and say one won't be signed. It has gone very quiet on the striker front, so maybe Pardew was just being honest. Though a lot of people are sceptical and think the club are just hoping to reduce prices. There is no evidence around, that I can find, that a move is afoot for a striker, but only time will tell, after all, if one becomes available very cheap, I doubt Newcastle would pass up the chance to sign him. One they are interested in, I mean.}

Cheap? ed have you seen the potential transfer fee for prior and hes a striker! smalling recentley and ian wright in the past have made the big step up from that level and look at them so this guy could be anything! scoring record fantastic so lets just hope Carr hooked a good one again! got a good recent record for getting players under the radar so we never know till this guy gets his trial!.....spenny mag

I thought this was a joke ,hasn't he just signed for another club?

No, it's very much true mate, he's on trial with us now, confirmed by his club president.

Yep was gonna sign for a club with ambition Eastleigh (in southampton) untill fat bloke decided 2 get his cheque book out big spender and pardew the yes man
Agree0

Do you think he would be playing in non-league at his age 24,if he was any good? There must be 50 teams in profesional football in the south of the country and no-one has picked him up? Spenny mag you get excited at the most pathetic things. You supported Toon more than 2 seasons??
Agree0

Stuart Pearce mate... he got picked up at around the same age... some people slip through the net or do not reach their potential until they are older. Pardew was another, barnes etc etc.

Apparently there's a striker named Emmanuel Mayuka who wants to join us. The lad has got great pace and good technical skills.
He's young, comes from the swiss club Young Boys, so he'd be low on wages and not command too high a fee.
Has a good injury record aswell.
Looks great on YouTube, but don't they all ;) In all fairness, he's got some flair that one.
A good target for the summer.

Definetly looks awesome on you tube, doesn't have that bad a goal to game ratio for such a young guy aswell, something like 47 in 110 games according to wiki in his whole prof career. Only went to young boys for 1.7m so with a cheap bid we would maybe get him!! (What do you think Ed)

"NO STRIKERS COMING IN JAN " what part of that do you not get you numpty

Would love Hoilett however blackburn are demanding £18m and no way will Cashely spend that much, and that is quite a lot considering he is on a free in the summer. and i can see all the big teams after him when he's going on a free as he will be a good squad player for them
Agree0

GREAT POST! Would however play Santon RB instead of Simpson, If we would get these three players in (BIG WISH LIKE) I think our team is destined for europe.
Agree0

Ne raylor in the squad is a bit suspect

Agree santon has to play

Not one English man in team... Gone are the days when starting XI was English and qualified for Europe..

Would be a good team, but the chances of fat ashley getting hoilett seem slim unfortunately :/
Agree0

So is Danny Simpson not english then..or did you just make an arse of yourself
Agree0

Nope... Replied to the post santon in for Simpson...

English players are too expensive Re: Carroll, Henderson, Downing. If Blackburn go down id fancy Martin Olson (spelling) at left back

Its in the sun today saying that andy carroll will return in january, i cant see this happening after only a year at liverpool and cant see dagleish selling him so quick after he paid so much for him. I do think we need a striker to come in january with demba ba going to the african cup as leon best cant lead the line for a month, i think we should go for gary hooper or billy sharp as they wont exactly break the bank to sign and then we can get a bigger name in the summer. I do think we desperately need a center back to join and I think this is where ashley needs to spend big to get a good defender so he should go for jan vertonghen who is a similar type of player to vermalen from arsenal. We also need to strengthen in the middle of the park and at left back. graham carr has been watching nice midfielder kafoumba coulibaly so expect a bid for him, then for full back I think will will tie up a deal for erik pieters as he came close to signing in the summer.
IN January:
Jan Vertonghen - £10m
Gary Hooper/Billy Sharp - £3m
Kafoumba Coulibaly - £5m
Erik Pieters - £6m
TOTAL - £24m
Believable7
Unbelievable26
Never going to happen ONE player will come in.
Agree0

AP has said we wont be signing a striker in january, and I'm certain they'll stick to that. Lovenkrands, the two Ameobi's and best will have to do for now, but if anything I'd love to see someone from the reserves or youth team be given a chance. JJ Hooper has been banging them in for two seasons now, so it'd be good to see him step up and see how he does.
And i know you said something along th lines of "to fill the gap until the summer" but that runs counter to how Ashley is running the club, he'll either buy someone now, or someone in summer, not both.
I also cant see the midfield being reinforced unless tiote leaves, which seems a bit less likely since he said he wants to stay (but didnt carroll say the same thing?). Peters and Vertonghen would be phenomenal signings though.
Agree0
Disagree0
Can't see us splashing out even half of 24 million with only realistically 10-12 points needed to guarantee survival, especially with prices inflated in the window, we may bring in a ridgewell type player as a squad player, then wait and see who is available in the summer
not a bad post though, all realistic targets and good players
Agree0
Disagree0
Hooper has only been at the club since the Summer.
Agree0
Disagree0
Yeah probably not at this window but if we do push on for europe and qualify for the europa league i can see these players coming in aswell as an experienced striker
Agree0
Disagree0
Hooper is in his second season now
Agree0

Why not get nicky Maynard in from Bristol ,probs get him for 1.5 or 2m .As for pieters aint he got a broken foot at the mo, why would we buy another crock.
Agree0

Poor deluded sgb still thinking europe is a possibility 1 win against bottom club does not a burst bubble fix
Agree0

I can defo see Carroll coming back to the club in January....
If we draw Liverpool in the 4th round of The Cup.
Agree0
Disagree0
Doesnt say he will return in january! says Ap said he would have him back if he had a chance of getting him! then it compares stats for both clubs.
Agree0
Disagree0
Hooper will cost double what you think. Mainly because celtic dont want or need to sell the player. Very similar situation to that of Jordan Rhodes. Price will be inflated becuase clubs want to discourage the sale of best players.

Be surprised if fat ash spends any where near £2.4m never mind £24
Agree0

I reckon our best bet would be taking a punt on maynard, what do people reckon?
Agree0
Disagree0
Pards has said no to buying, but did not metion loan deals... get carol back on loan? maybe... rather see Defoe on loan or someone similar
Agree0
Disagree0
Celtic will not sell Hooper to Newcastle unless he wants to go and they want to sell him. The fee would be £10M +, if Carroll was £35M.
The answer to both is NO.
Newcastle slagged off Celtic players earlier this season and they have a long memory.
Anyway, why would he want mid - table mediocrity when he can look back on a medal collection and fan adoration when / if he moves on.
He wouldn't get that at Newcastle.
Agree0

You lot come out with some crazy prices man. Rangers offered £3million for Jan Vertonghen and where told £3.5million. When they matched that price his club said they wanted £4million so Rangers said no. They want every penny so to offer £10million out-right is insanity and will not happen.
Agree0

P.S ur having a laugh right? Hooper for £3million :L naebother pal away and boil ur heed.
Agree0

Mike ashley here : ya aint gettin a penny mwaHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Agree0

£3m is insanity for a player that cost celtic £2.4m a year ago, hes top goalscorer in league for past 2 season and the price would be closer to the £10m stated
Agree0

Newcastle will not spend 24m may spend 24 pound at best

SPL is about the quality of league 1/league 2 so it will not be hard for hooper to finish top scorer

You never know, he might make the grade, but me thinks the difference in fitness between a pro and a part-timer might reflect badly on his ability.

Even though he is a cheap signing if we were to pick him up this is after AP said we definatley wont be signing a striker! he has since said he will never say never!

So Pardew has said today that "at the moment" there wont be any strikers coming in and that is primarily because the right player isnt available at the right price. I also think its to manage expectations to a degree. I still expect su to bring in 2, maybe 3, players and spend approx 10million this window.
Would love to see maynard at approx 2-3 million coming in.
Other than that Ridgewell could come in and either Pieters or Cissiko. Though I was hoping on the defender Mbiwa.

Didn't leicester have a 6.5m bid for maynard turned down? think your wishful thinking, what part of parwho saying no striker coming in do you not understand, ashley wants his money back
Agree0

They need to sign a striker because when ba goes to the african games the three that are left, ameob best and the dutchman are not good enough. nc need a left and right back another centre half and a good striker so come on fat controller get your hand down and give perdew the money to get these player in.
Agree0
Disagree0
Leicesters 6.5 bid was back in the summer, his contract is up in summer 2012 and he wants to leave. Word here in Bristol is he'll go for 2.5 to 3m .Oh and the scum have defo enquired about him i understand.
Agree0
Disagree0
Leicester have inquired about him recentley too and had a proposed offer turned down but the media think he will move and the fee will be in the region of 3 million! pieters deal looks dead in the water due to his team having no cover in that position and cissoko is attracting bid interest from giants so his fee will be too much sadly
Agree0

What dutchman? would that be lovenkrands from Denmark your refering to?
