Newcastle Rumours Archive July 29 2011

Newcastle will unveil 3 more players before start of season. 100% guarunteed but dont expect all 3 to be big names Will be 2 defenders and a striker Bridge could be one of the players but keeping things hush hush even tho talks at an advanced stage. Other defender is rumoured to be form germany and a striker other than erding is believed to have been approached....watch this space

Be interested to know your source mate... guessing here but if theres any truth to it the three players might be Bridge, Long and Roman Hubnik.. apparently have watched him on numerous occasions since last December, tried to get him last minute in January but didnt, and with the Hertha signing a new centre back recently he is said to be on his way out

KRTOON

My info comes from the strawberry mate Not always spot on but hear a lot and get a lot of people in the know in Bridge the only name mentioned but said carr is to spend some time in germany next week and its to talk to a club about a player he spotted and reccomended to AP

Its a rumour and banter page lads whats the use of saying 3 signings coming in but giving no names everyone could do that lets have the names and then we can think serious or have a laugh

Too much broon ale

"In the know". Nuff said.

read the chronicle ..read between the lines ...tiote has visa probs cant get back into england ..not with squad for leeds game ...is tiote having a medical somewhere else....geordie tom

I hear chelsea interested 15m

Haha very funny

No he just got get a visa?

Lol this is a Laugh. Why 15 million? Not being funny hes on a 5 year deal. Would be a waste to sell him.

I dont believe it.. he managed to get in ok after his hols.. dont be surprised to wake up tomo and he's at city or chelsea or arsenal or manuire.. and we'll have £25mill. well ash will

He's gone to ghana.... why would he swap a premier league club for some club in ghana? :L

Your not supposed to have multiple work Visa. Newcastle should have written to explain it before they went on the tour. They just need to verify he hasn't breached his Visa It only takes a couple of day.

Incompetence in the Newcastle Office.

Can i get a job in there as they aint got a clue what a laugh should be a joke shop

Read the lines before you read inbetween them HE'S TRAINING IN GHANA. get a grip you doom monger

He's on a five year deal? so what so was Carroll, I don't think he's going but all a long contract does now is ensure the selling club get's a decent fee.

I aint a doom monger bonny lad ..just read it as i see it ...agree with monger though used to be a fish monger ...geordie tom

So why is he traing in ghana thought he was from the ivory coast ...rabbit away somewhere here

HE'S TRAINING IN GHANA. Why? doesn't sound good so close to opening day?

He can't get into England but he's signing for Chelsea that is all time stupidity.

According to sources in france. PSG's mevlut erdinc is set to turn down an offer from newcastle to stay in paris.

newcastle will now look at other options with defoe in the rankings.

That post started off quite sensible then went all silly. Defoe is a none starter for so so many reasons. They were only interested in him as a loan signing. THFC want a sale. Defoe is too old for NUFC's buying policy and he doesn't want to come north. He was truly truly rubbish last season and not worth £9M. NEED I GO ON. Because I can. Let the Dofe story go FFS. SteveToon

Have to agree with SteveToon on this one. about defoe but i wish pardew would forget about erdinc. and go out and buy a young hungry forward ..the days of big money buys are gone at wor club... geordie tom

I still Believe We have so many alternatives to focus Any other league can be considered, e.g. Dutch?

Although we still aren't making any more progress on the Striker front, I was thinking wait a minute. Wigan are losing the player that kept them up last season and will probably replace him with the likes of Routledge.

Swansea are struggling to sign boys like Leroy Lita and don't really have any prem quality.

QPR if they keep Taraabt and make a fefew more signings could be ok but nothing special.

Wolves, WBA, Stoke etc the jury is out and Sunderland have spent but need to wait and see how all of those players gel.

What I am saying is things aren't great for us just now but I would be very surprised if we don't sign at least 1 decent striker and the players we have are a lot better than other teams in the league.

Lets keep our heads up.

Geo.

I understand your point Geo, but surely after the sales the club has made and the funds generated, the current players, surely we should be looking at the top 8 or so, rather than looking at the bottom clubs as an inspiration.

Could also depend on what team spirit is like aswell. Agree though. We should have a squad too strong for most of them teams.
Psycho

We've brought it no premier exp other than Ba who isn't a no.9 shirt worth. and we've lost the next big premier league ST and lost our captain and top scorer last season. ehm...

Ideally, that is what we should be looking at but obviously Ashley has this new business perspective in place at running the club and he ain't gonna spend the money we've made.

I appreciate that he is trying to keep us out of debt but I also think he needs to show us some more financial support just now.

Ultimately if we don't spend anymore and lose the likes of Barton and Enrique then Pardew's goal this season is to keep us up.

Geo

What happens when we get a few injuries?
we have a good midfield, the rest of the squad is average at best.

What happened to the "stepping up a level" that Parspew ranted on about at the end of last season ? cant see us doing that with what we have. Once again, they can see us renewing the season tickets and think 'well, they are still giving us their money..what the hell, no more signings'...nothing ever changes.

The fact is we should be competing with clubs such as stoke, aston villa, sunderland, fulham ect and i would say that at the moment we are about on par with these teams signings wise but the fact is if we want to push higher then ashley needs to start investing into the club.
