Thanks ed just guess work on my part, but we have been linked quite a bit with clubs like:

AZ for Kolbeinn Sig rsson same club as Rasmus Elm CM 14 Caps.

Anderlecht for Lukaku same club Jonathan Legear winger who reported club interest from NUFC in November or Lucas Biglia young Argentian CM 2 caps who is already receiving interest by bigger clubs.

Genk for Thibault Courtois same club as Kevin De Bruyne

PSV: for Lens, Dzsudzsak same club as Ola Toivonen who according to press is more open to a move now after missing out on the Champions League

Bayer Leverkusen : see barnetta post.

OBVIOUS EXAMLPLE : LENS of Ligue 1 linked with Raphael Varane and sign Mehdi Abeid

Still wondering if we will go for the French winger dimitri payet 13 goals 2 assist over nzogbia. Payet is probably cheaper and by no means wrapped up by liverpool's damien comolli who had an agreement he would not move for any of St. Etienne's players. We were previously linked with blaise matuidi CDM who is by no means a back up.

But I was told the price was too high.}

Ed any news if we are interested in Tranquillo Barnetta, btw for jonathan reis post below he has been out since December with a serious knee injury. {Ed002's Note - Is there any reason that you think there should be interest in Barnetta?}

Ed002's sorry its taken a while to get back but reportedly we were interested in January for Tranquillo Barnetta who had 4 goals and 10 assist 09/10 season, much of this season was spent with injury and he is reported to be looking at a move to the premier league. Pure speculation on my part, according to the press we were sniffing around Bayer Leverkusen for Renato Augusto. same club barnetta plays for.

{Ed002's Note - An interesting thought but I really don't know of any interest in Barnetta. If I do hear of anything I will be sure to let you know.}

Ed, any news or interest from us in yohan cabaye of lillie or rasmus elm of AZ {Ed001's Note - I will ask Ed002 to check up on Cabaye, he has excellent contacts in French football, but I have heard of no interest in the player. Elm was of interest last summer if I remember rightly? I have not heard of any new move for him though.}

shola ameobi to discuss terms with barcelona over a 40-50 million pound move. guardiola has previously expressed his interest, as his work rate and skill level would fit straight in with messi, xavi and iniesta etc.
also, a young man named 'david williams' known for his slick length has been spotted at the training fround with mike ashley. possibly taking a look at facilities?

Hey Ed, Is there any truth in the selling teh club rumour? Surely not?

{Ed010's Note -Nothing is surprising in football circles anymore but I would be genuinely surprised if Mike Ashley sells up. Just a thought though, maybe he is going to do a "runner" with Andy Carroll's transfer fee lol

sadly that wouldn't be surprising and also not really a thing to "lol" at that's like someone robbing your gran then pissing on her grave

{Ed010's Note - Football is a sport, essential to some, a part of life to others but under no circumstances should it come before one's family and the analogy that you use, in my opinion, is uncalled for and does you no justice. The remark was intended to add to a bit of humour to my response but has has quite obviously passed you by. Rest assured, I will tread very carefully next time when dealing with posts from Newcastle fans and if I offended anyone else, please accept my sincere apologies. Ed010

I wanted to say that I cannot believe the ott response from this post. I thought you could be closer to the truth than you know there ed (about Ashley selling up and doing a runner). What a pathetic response from anonimous! This page is getting to many coming on and slagging off other posters (exception to sad mackems). We come on here to express our wants and rumours for the club, surely not to just to offend facelessly. Get a grip. Go somewhere else to post your immature comments. Ed, you shouldnt have wasted the time with a response. Apologies from a true toon supporter. Psycho.

Ed010 - Thanks Psycho and I really appreciate your words of support. I may live north of the border but I am fully aware of the camaraderie that exists between the Geordies and the Scots. While, I did not take the response personally, it is nonetheless disappointing that some people can't take a "joke". Being a Rangers fan and their team "editor", I can assure you that the same problem exists on there. This site is here to be used as a forum, for fans of all clubs, to express their views and opinions and I would be doing both the author of the original post and myself, a disservice if I did not upload a post that was expressing the author's opinion or views, even when that post takes umbrage at something I have typed.

I thank you again for your support in this matter and rest assured that the "love affair" between myself and all Geordies, has been rekindled lol Cheers Ed010

Barton not offered new deal as we are hoping to buy Sturridge. Barton and Sturridge do not get along from their Man City days and the club has decided they would prefer Sturridge over Barton. A good decision if we can indeed get Sturridge.

Hi Ed, don't worry about it, I think the guy just has a serious lack of humour. . And yes, I am a NUFC fan. . Good site and feedback from you, btw

{Ed010's Note -Thank you for your post. Single handedly you have restored my faith in humanity. Cheers Ed010

Gervinho has announced (Sky Sports News) that he will not announce his decision regarding his future until next month. Seems we may miss out, as he's after Champions League football. .unless Tiote can tell him what a wonderful club we are {Ed002's Note - He may find it hard to get CL football. Perhaps Arsenal.}

Can't believe Liverpool put in a measly £4m bid for Enrique. We bough him for £6m when he was relatively unknown and now he's recognised as one of the best left backs in the league, Liverpool put in a stupid bid like that. I know he's only got 1 year left on his contract but come on! Piss off Kenny you sell out

Ed. As we all know the transfer window doesn't open till July 1st. Out of contract Players can obviously be signed prior to this. Does this mean that all of the so called movement/approaches for players in the transfer Market are all just speculative inquiries at the moment, deals agreed in principle so to say. Understanding that alot of the speculation might not even be true on certain attempted deals being currently touted about NUFC? {Ed002's Note - The transfer window is open for English and Welsh clubs to transfer players between themselves. For international transfers you have to wait until July 1 to complete any transactions, but can still reach agreement in advance.}
