Ed whats the crack with macheda, did our back up striker deal die of death aswell?
{Ed042's Note - Looks like it at the moment mate, tomorrow morning might throw up a surprise but highly doubt it, imagine it would have been reported}

31 Aug 2011 22:37:54
Ed, just confirm - is that us done and no deals we dont know about?
Will there be a loan?
{Ed042's Note - Just got it confirmed mate, only free transfers for Prem clubs, no loan deals after deadline}
31 Aug 2011 23:39:41
pissed of big time with transfer why not go for one striker not load different ones sooo soo so annoyed at newcastle all i can say is santon was a big coup but very very dissapointed for transfer deadline thought we might of got a striker at least
31 Aug 2011 23:09:29
Scumberland get Bendtner>
Says it all. But they still wont beat us lol
Not so sure,,, they will gel and their fire power has increased.... They have a kid from Arsenal (O'Roary?) thank the lord they haven't played him yet saw him for Arsenal reserves last year... Dont why Arsenal let him go? He is one for the future but he could definitely get on a lot of teams benches.
Deacon looks good and is a left winger, he will get his chance, Bentdner is good player and needs a good run of games
Bentdner is cat he wont score more than 5 goals all season
31 Aug 2011 22:52:08
toon looking to get andy carroll back on loan
Rubbish?
31 Aug 2011 22:33:37
ASHLEY and LAMBIAS OUT!!!!!
Yeah a negger
In Mike we trust
Keep dreaming mate as long as we keep going to games they will stil be there....boycot everyone
FFs ashley is fixing this club and its history of bad buys. I really like the way things are going:D
Give over fella..
Why? Cos we missing out on a striker? I am happy with this window, some quality players in, more depth and only 1 key player gone
D-toon
WOT A BUNCH OF JOKERS I ACTUALLY GAVE THEM THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT FEEL PROPER LET DOWN IM GONNA SUPPORT SPURS COME ON YOU YIDS
They tried to get a bargain at the last min and ashley fell flat on his fat a**e. Joke
Shut up you muppet, frustrating yes, should have got a striker, but get some perspective, would you rather we panic bought and ended up with another xisco?
What you talking about we have sold-
Enrique-no caps-45k p/w- £6mil
Barton- 1 cap-60k p/w
Nolan - no caps- 45k p/w - £4.5mik
and we have signed
santon - 7caps - £30k p/w - £5mil
cabaye - 5caps - £30k p/w - £5mil
Mareaux - no caps - £30k p/w - free
Ba - 10caps - £? - free
so we have replaced everyone we have let go with more pedigree. Yes we haven't got the striker that we all want but you can't really blame Ashley and llambias for trying to get the best deal for the club.
Can't believe anyone who supports this club and wants it to be a success could disagree with that.
Is it only neggers who want the club to be the best?
What other motives have you lot got?
In happy we spent nothing and got 7 players in good window i think team needs to gel although the QPR game could be interesting now
I honestly do not know how you morons can support MA and AP so blindly! We've known we need a striker since Carroll was sold and even before then he needed someone to play with! How can you justify them waiting till the VERY last minute to sign someone when they've had SO much time? Tbh I still need to be convinced about the players we have signed.
A joke of a club!!!
So dis-heartened!
{Ed042's Note - Signing players has nothing to do with Pardew mate, surely that much is obvious, he has said it enough times, understand frustration at the board, its justified, but Pardew should be backed by fans}
If we had signed a striker, this would have been one of the best transfer seasons in recent years. BUT why did'nt we buy Bendtner?! - Number 9 material.
Macheda may still come in remember? Just because the window is shut, doesn't mean it has to be announced.
Keep the faith.
Im happy with the signings we got reduced our wage bill building for the future sat in 6th position didnt spend a penny and we have money available for january for a striker (five year plan sounds good to me )
I agree we have got some good players in this window but needed a new striker desperately. Let's hope ba gets his scoring boots on soon!
Fuming at not getting any of our 'top priority' strikers in. but why cant you see boycotting the games will only reduce our income and make it a necessity to sell again in jan.just get behind the team ffs
Boycott the games so our players get demoralised that their fans hate them what a good idea (NOT) How about getting behind AP (not his fault) and the players and let them know what we think of them not MA or DL just the players.Let us shout from the terraces why we love our newcastle and whoever plays for us
Ed - Who authorises the transfers at Man U, Chelsea, Livepool, Real Madrid, Man City, Barcelona, Spurs, even Aresnal (and he is s**t). If the Manager can not pick his own players to sign what use is he. ALL the suuccessful clubs have a Manager who chooses who plays for the team. Thats why they are successful (or not in the case of Arsenal). If Pardew is not involved then he is just a puppet who trains the team. We needed extra stikers since Jan 2010 (before we sold Carrol) We will never be a big club under this regime and YOU and all those other morons should STOP supporting him. He is nothing but a voicepiece for Ashley. POST THIS IF YOU DARE
{Ed042's Note - Will gladly post and reply.. your question was who authorizes transfers at these clubs.. with the exception of Spurs, Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd, the owners.. Man City, Chelsea, Real Madrid and Barcelona all employ the coach/manager philosophy.. it is acutally very common outside England.. at these clubs it is the exact same as at Newcastle.. the manager merely recommends who he would like to sign, it is not up to him to be involved in the transfer dealings.. and you could include Arsenal and Man Utd in that in the future, only reason its different now is because Wenger and Ferguson are those clubs, are so deeply embedded in them for so long that everything goes through them... look its a management style adopted by a lot of clubs like it or not thats how it is.. because Pardew is the one who does press conferences he is no more than a mouthpiece for the board? has no managerial or coaching ability whatsoever no? hasnt clearly had a tactical impression on every game we`ve played so far which probably got us the result in every one of those games?.. get over the puppet complex, not his fault if he relays information given to him and it doesnt come to fruition, what do want him to do?? be annoyed and even hate the board all you want, everyone has their reasons, but to hate Pardew and want him out is sorry mate absolutely ridiculous.. we just going to keep changing managers every six months yeah? that how you build stability within a team? I will stop now because I could fill ten of these pages with why that is the wrong approach to take, in my opinion, youre so wrong its unbelievable, so we`ll agree to disagree}
Why is everyone talking about panic buying? We've needed a striker since January ffs. Why do people think the Cockney Mafia waited until deadline day - because they never intended to buy a striker. I was expecting this all along. Best thing to do at the moment is expect nothing. Then we won't be disappointed.
Given time the new players will gel as a unit but can't help but feel that we need a quality striker to finish it all off..
ED - Sorry but you are wrong - you already said "with the exception of ....." These are some of the most successful clubs in the UK,. And if Guardiola, Mourenio, Mancini do not get to choose who they sign they would not stay - yes the Board make the signings - but the manager decides the style of play and the players who will shape the team. As you say, Pardew is just a moputhpiece but if he continues to talk crap he will continue to get the flak.
{Ed042's Note - Thats a silly thing to say mate, have you any knowledge of Spanish and Italian football, most of the managers in those leagues are coach style managers, solely look after the team and any players they do want they recommend as I said, nothing more.. do you not think Pardew said who he wanted no? not having a go just interested to see if you think Pardew doesnt select the players he would like to sign.. and no the original poster called him no more than a mouthpiece, sorry he said he is nothing but a voicepiece, I merely said he relays information he is given because he is the man who is in the press conference, its not Pardew making this stuff up himself.. it is very difficult being a coach/manager and not having 100% influence, but we are far from the only club like it, just frustrates me when people call for the head of a bloke who is clearly imo doing a decent job}
Couldnt agree more to the comment posted in reply to that person from Ed. Too many so called fans come on and waffle about boycotts and sacking pardew its ridiculous. Ok we did not get a striker ( minus Ba) thats a bit gutting, what we did however was sign the captain of the current French Champions and a Champions league winning left back who has already won more medals and caps than Enrique is ever likely to.
Ed....are there any decent strikers maybe on free transfers?
{Ed042's Note - Havnt even looked into yet mate, hasnt been on my mind today, wont be until tomorrow tbh, will let you know, post a list of decent ones or something tomorrow afternoon.. going to spend the morning watching cartoons with the little man tomorrow, see if spongebob is a free agent and can bang in 20 a season!}
It's been a tough night for everyone Ed, and emotions are clearly running high. But I support your opinion. Any attempt to boycott or sour the mood at games is extremely counter-productive. We have brought in good players, Pardew seems ( especially from his half time team talks) to know what he is doing, the organisation of the team on the pitch is best it has been since Bobby. Today is a let down, but we needed a striker for half of last season, and didn't we still do better than expected?!?
I don't want them out have you seen the transfer activities. everyone is saying sign the player at the start of the window. ashley and llambias had a plan sign at the end of window so players are cheaper and will sign immediatly and not demand huge wage demands as we are in the best league in the world
Ed cannot believe what your saying. Ashley is purely money driven. I agree that we need run the club correctly but not the deprement of the team. we have needed a striker since Carroll left. 8 months ago. Thats plenty of time to get one in. The simple fact is Fat Ash is only interested in taking money out nothing more. Its a one in one out policy. As for the lad comparing players in and out. Agree until Jose. Spain are the best team in the world and its hard for him to get in. Santon should have been bought to play with Jose not to replace him. If Ashley showed some ambition we could have kept him Said it himself. Take the blinkers off. ASHLEY OUT!!
{Ed042's Note - Didnt say anything about Ashley mate. Was talking about Pardew alone}
You didn't get Bentdner coz he went to the north east top dogs of the last 3 years, our number 9 material with an option to buy him for 8m at the end of the season
Bentdner most overated player in the league
Bentdner, Ngog and Carlton cole worst strikers ever, id prefer mike ashley up front
31 Aug 2011 22:22:49
There we are - confirmed on ssn no Ruiz or Ridgewell. Lame.
Wot a Joke Why not try and sign this fella earlier wasted time on maiga erdinic and roux why didnt go for ruiz and ciss earlier
Same old story just a smoke screen total gutted
Hope MA ain't planning a matchday visit any time soon after this letdown, 8 months to sort a striker total joke.
I knew they would not sign anyone.mike ashley is a t**t!
Think its been a smoke screen we will get some divvy like last year like kuqi...ashley had a chance to put things right and again has not....edd042 what do you think..
{Ed042's Note - He messed up this time, people got on their back unjustifiably imo last January due to only having 2 hours to get signings.. this time round the funds and time were there.. should have got it done, might see a loan deal or two will cushion the blow but cant defend it really, HBA needs to stay fit when he comes back now and we`ll be fine, if he doesnt we`ll find it hard against top half sides}
This is a joke, how many strikers have we been linked with us over the past eight months. We sign Ba who has been awful. Absolute disgrace. WTF is going on?
Not just fat mike, Pardews promised another striker why leave it to last minute.
Gutted, what a joke
When are yous gonna learn ? ha ha
Wow lots of neggers
Just WHEN will people realise that this owner couldn't care less about the fans or the club.
Who in their right mind would want to be in charge of a Premiership club and not have a striker worthy of the name? It is obvious that Ashley is not bothered whether we have a team that can really challenge or not. The guy's a disgrace to a fine football institution.
When is everyone going to get together to kick him out? When we go down AGAIN?
To the bloke who commented wow lots of neggers. Have you shelled out fortunes on a season ticket for years, hoping that a decent striker will come in and do the job that shearer or Ferdinand did? Pardew promised a striker after signing Ba. I think everyone has a right to air their opinions.
31 Aug 2011 22:11:34
Sky bet have Ruiz at 4/11 to join Fulham and only 2/1 for the Toon.
SSN deals fro Ridgewell and Ruiz fallen through
They have fulham 1/10. And Toon 11/2
31 Aug 2011 22:11:08
news on the BBC website is that Newcastle are finished in the Window
Surprise surprise, They have had since Jan to get a replacement for Carroll
Nee surprise there then, Pardew try and explain this one tomorra ya puppet.
Indeed mate, it's crazy it's like Newcastle want to hedge there bets in the EPL without a 'Prize Striker' and it's risky. Adstatoon
Ashley has fleeced our squad and has lied continually about 'stengthening' the team. He is a complete crook and a thief and is backed by a dodgy casino manager and a sycophantic puppet. It's time for the fans to vote with their feet. It is tough but it's for the best in the long-term. When the fat lunatic sees that the money is no longer coming in, then he might do us all a favour and go.
31 Aug 2011 22:08:43
Just saw wayne bridge at central station, is he on his way?
31 Aug 2011 21:57:36
Lee Ryder Tweeted - Now been told Newcastle United have completed their business in the window. How Can We Be Done With Still 1 Hour To Go And No Striker In Sight!
Like i said weeks ago we wont get a striker. Christ we aint even done a loan deal.
And we aint released any news of signings
F//k lee ryder s**te bloke s**te newspaper how does he know never tells the truth the mans a tosser
Say no more
Ed how can we fail this big when we had months to sign a striker? No excuses about Erdinc please. Please also cheer me up and mention one team in the premiership that has a worse striker squad then we because I can´t think of one.
{Ed042's Note - There`s plenty mate, agree its not strong but its not the worst... no excuses for not getting a striker in though}
Maybe the striker hinged on Ranger leaving. Would have liked to see Gignac come in, if only on loan.
Ridgewell would have been an ok squad player. Really worried now in case Taylor or Colo get injured. Lets not forget, Taylor doesn't tend to play 38 league games a season. All we have as back up is Willo and he's injured. That means flaming James Perch is probably the only player that can play centre back, save for Kadar.
SSN deals for ridgewell and ruiz fallen through
Because we have a tight git for an owner, who believes he can sign everyone for a couple of million and offer them £10000 per week contracts.
Why is anyone surprised. Another huge surplus for MA in this window.
Lol love the neggers weve got 5 strikers do we really need a big massive signing weve got ben arfa coming back give Best a decent run reckon he can only get better and Ba is a good player no problems top 7 finish i reckon plus theres always jan transfer window
Ha always the jan window... didnt we say that last jan about august and the year b4, oh and dont worry Ba go ANC in jan too..
Yeh in jan they can feed us another load of b*****KS. In the words of the Who song ''wont get fooled again''.
Looks like a long boring season for us then Lets just hope Ben arfa gets back to his best and Ba improves or we could really struggle for goals
31 Aug 2011 21:57:28
Not heard anything since before 8 on the Ruiz deal, could this be an indication that he's on the claimed helicopter?
Geordiesteve
No chance nufc blog says ruiz has chose fulham. let down once again dont know why we bother ranting about it wont change anything
Helicopters can't fly in/over Newcastle after eight.
31 Aug 2011 21:55:46
Ed; Seriously, are'nt we signing anyone?
{Ed042's Note - Doesnt look like it mate..}
You finally lost your optimism ed? not much hope for the rest of us then :l
{Ed042's Note - Disappointed mate if they dont a FW in, rest of the business has been top notch and understand the logic behind it, dont want to get fleeced on deals but a very good striker would have capped it off, looks very unlikely at this stage tbh}
No sign of a striker is proper depressing! Ed...what whiskey you got!?!
{Ed042's Note - Ha you mean what whiskey did I have}
Will we still be able to get Gignac on Loan over the next couple of days?
Even sky sports transfer clock thing thinks we won't get either. I hate the final day, we never do anything decent, though we haven't sold anyone (Yet!).
31 Aug 2011 21:52:45
ed is it true that theres a striker avin a medical at st james park
{Ed042's Note - No mate, dealings on Ruiz were taking place out of London}
31 Aug 2011 21:40:14
Ed what's happening with situ? All gone quiet
{Ed042's Note - Between us and Swansea apparently, complications over requested release clause stopped the deal in its tracks}
31 Aug 2011 21:32:20
havent heard about gignac in the past hours, ed do you know anything about him?
{Ed042's Note - Impossible to find out with Ruiz story, loan deals are available after tonight anyway so not a priority I presume}
Thanks
Ed - loan deals are only open to football league clubs after tonight not Premier League
{Ed042's Note - You 100% on that? I thought so too but was told otherwise}
31 Aug 2011 21:09:40
well its after 9 now still no further forward is ridgewell coming ! is ruiz on his way ! are we getting anyone ED you got owt for us be nice for us to know something concrete deeing wor heeds in here in turkey geordie tom
{Ed042's Note - Sorry for the delay mate, I hate deadline day! nightmare! anyway, Ruiz deal looking less likely the closer it gets to 11pm, as I said in the 1st place we`d be blessed if we pulled it off... ridgewell still in talks as things stand}
31 Aug 2011 20:50:40
ed is there any news on jelavic
{Ed042's Note - Leicester main interested party, Rangers confident of holding onto him, 6.5m bid rumoured from Leicester}
31 Aug 2011 21:14:13
ive heard that the ruiz deal is dead coz hes went to fulham:( ffs ashley get out of our club
{Ed042's Note - Still no confirmation from Fulham or Newcastle}
How can you blame Ashley he put a bid in for him and sent his helicopter down leaving the decision to the player!
I think the longer the situation goes on the more likely he is to get on that helicopter
Cant leave it to late.it must be a 50min flight from london in a chopper?
The helicopter may well be there, but if there was any true intention this deal would have been done ages ago.
We've spent too long chasing players that could not come to the club for one reason or another.
Perhaps phony bids have been submitted without any real intention of them being followed through.
Why have we waited til the last minute?! Why couldnt we have made this bid months ago?
Ppl on here need a good kick up the arse only yesterday ashley was a god for pulling the santon deal off n today it's get him out ppl need to get a grip wat did u expect ??
We were backing Ashley as he doing what was promised - replacing the players that weve sold on. And Santon was probably one of the best signings weve made, but ultimately we were promised a striker. I was prasing MA yesterday based on the fact we were still getting a striker.
Replacing players that have gone -__- dont make me laugh carroll has been gone for 8months and still no replacment.....
31 Aug 2011 21:08:52
Confirmed Bryan Ruiz has signed for ....Fulham :( sorry to burst your bubbles but i seen this coming
You must b a smb but bendner coming to us a bigger club
Dirty smb
Bendners going to the shadows
Source?
Take more than bendnter to save them lot smb
Bendtner has joined Sunderland. :) Wonder who has egg on their face now?
31 Aug 2011 20:51:00
Any news of a player going to Birmingham as part of the ridgewell deal??
{Ed042's Note - Ranger}
31 Aug 2011 20:49:07
Real Madrid midfielder Canales, who just returned from to the Bernebeau after a season long loan has just arrived at Madrid airport and one of his entourage was asked "what is Tyneside?". He isnt wanted by Jose Mourionho and Newcastle need someone to replace Joey Barton! Could be a winner!
Strange considering he went to Valencia a week ago
That must be the same Canales who is currently on loan at Valencia.
Canales signed on loan for Valencia about 3 weeks ago..lmao some people talk some sh*te
He has left on loan to Valencia.
Ha you didnt do your research haha
31 Aug 2011 20:43:08
grrrr seems luiz is going to fulham, get maynard now
{Ed042's Note - Not confirmed, expected}
Grrrrr please please please come join the revolution!!!
Ruiz..
31 Aug 2011 20:42:42
Hope we get ruiz in cos just heard that safc have got bendtner on loan for a season. time is 2039.....JKM,Spenny
Bendtner haha. Scarey.
The same bentdner some newcastle fans said would be a good signing? Ruiz is going to fulham
He a damn sight better than the strikers they have already! And we need a striker. Your scary comment just childish and not very grown up to be honest!....JKM,Spenny
31 Aug 2011 20:42:15
ed any news on gignac or has the attention totally turned to ruiz now?
{Ed042's Note - No mate sorry being overshadowed by Ruiz stories at the mo, nothing changed on Gignac reports, still linked with both us and Fulham, no indication of which way its going, much like Ruiz}
31 Aug 2011 20:36:46
there is a rumour going about that jelavic could be a target for the toon!!
Hes out the country i just cant see that happening mate, good player mind
Where have you heard this?
There is reports there has been 3 bids for him so we could be one of them! But is he any good?....JKM,Spenny
31 Aug 2011 20:28:30
just seen the fat mans helicopter landing at benton
bryan ruiz on board maybe not sure.
He will stay with the fulham deal! Said earlier in year he would like to play for them. Has links to jol and they in london but we can hope!....JKM,Spenny
Would absolutely love this signing but unfortunately I think we will lose out on this to European football. However it is unlike us to offer better terms than another club and every signing we have made has loved our ambition!! Let's hope Ruiz can be convinced!!! Come on the toon!!
I live in holly cross, not far from benton. A hellicoptor has just been flying over very low. And it wasn't the bizzy chopper.
The helicopter owned by Ashley is still down south, its just been moved heliports due to flying restrictions at the first heliport after 8pm, looking very doubtful now that ruiz will sign
31 Aug 2011 20:31:07
really good source ashleys helicopter being used for ruiz to be rushed to newcastle to discuss and complete move....
Good source u mean sky sports news
Is the source ssn by any chance lol
Think he was meant to say on his way lol
31 Aug 2011 20:29:25
Ruiz set to turn down NUFC for Fulham says BBC
31 Aug 2011 20:20:53
have i head right that spurs want simpson to replace hutton....
dannitoon
No it was villa, if hutton goes to fulham, but its just been announced hutton has chosen villa so simpson will be staying
31 Aug 2011 20:12:28
man city said johnson available for a sale.. ed you heard if toon interested... surely we must
dannitoon
{Ed042's Note - LFC favorites, would take a big bid to get him, some player though}
He only available on loan apparently but you never know and stoke were linked but have denied it in last few minutes!
City released statement that both club and player are not up for a loan... any deal has to be permanent.. SSN
One of the best young english players in the league could be world class and would be worth buying at any price !
31 Aug 2011 20:10:58
On my way home from work drove past Ashton Gate and saw Alan Smith going in, Is Maynard coming to the mighty TOON?Ed any news on Maynard?
{Ed042's Note - Has been linked for £5m, considering Leicester got £6.5m rejected I would be surprised, no news from Bristol end}
31 Aug 2011 19:56:03
think we have put a bid in for liam ridgewell
{Ed042's Note - I would presume its a deal with Nile Ranger going the other way}
This is good is he not a CB who can play left? Could mean him being left back and saton right back. If im right our defence is beast. am i right ed?
{Ed042's Note - Yeah natural position is CB but has played a lot of games at LB in his career and natural left footer}
Thought so will be a really good player for us i think just what we need hope he comes
31 Aug 2011 19:57:19
ruiz comming +bid for ridgewell simpson going to villa
If we get Ridgewell he will play left back with santon playing right back
31 Aug 2011 19:08:37
hey ed, Any news yet mate? And how is the bottle of whiskey looking? Adstatoon
{Ed042's Note - On the 2nd bottle ha, ah no went for a few quickies earlier, needed it to get to 11 o clock... latest off SSN is confirmed bid in for Ridgewell}
Anaother defender whoopty do! Brain Ruiez going to Fulham his agent says hes keen on the London club, even thou we offered better terms.
31 Aug 2011 17:00:34
ED ıam sıttıng here fıghtıng wıth the germans over the hotels computer m8 you got any updates for us m8 been quıet on here for ages ...geordıe tom
{Ed042's Note - Have the requests for info in the queue lads, sorry for the delay getting back, will publish them as I hear news.. Twente have accepted 2nd bid for Ruiz, but cutting it very tight getting him up to Newcastle for talks, medical, signing if accepted terms etc.. Fulham in advanced talks so would be very lucky to snatch him from under their noses at this stage... will publish Discussion Posts soon with other info}
Ed042 do you think the second bids from us and the ridgewell as caught me off guard never saw that one but would be a good signing..lol
{Ed042's Note - It is from us 100%, he is said to be currently undergoing medical at Fulham so would be blessed if we got him tbh}
31 Aug 2011 19:41:39
ruiz offer accepted!!
ssn now! better terms offered.
Would be embarressin for fulham to get him now though wouldnt it! Now we have had a bid accepted we need to sign him ahead of them
Ssn say that we have matched offer and he is considering his options actualy !!
Sadly he will prefer the capital, we just cant compete location wise, anyway its an ashley last minute stunt like nzogbia back in jan
Fulham are in europe and based in london bet he goes there
31 Aug 2011 19:41:38
ssn ruiz heading up now to st james park
He may be if he prefares us
Didn't say heading up.. Said offer accepted
Dannitoon
31 Aug 2011 19:32:44
French radio channel RMC says that André-Pierre Gignac is in Newcastle right now!
This is true my source told me aswell.
Ed, you know anything about this?
{Ed042's Note - Us and Fulham in for him, thats the latest, but lee ryder has said its a no go}
The station indicates that he is in England with interest from both Fulham and Newcastle. It also states fulham are the favourites to win his signature.
Thanks
If fulham sign him we'll probably get Ruiz, cant see them both signing for Fulham.
{Ed042's Note - Logic would dictate thats the case mate unless they are selling a striker}
31 Aug 2011 19:27:35
Were not going to sign a striker for gods sake! please pardew sign someone, Ed do you have any gossip of any strikers that youve heard about in the last hour
{Ed042's Note - Right theres nothing solid lads because of lack of media coverage at St James but latest rumours seem to be Bendtner, who has also been linked to mackems, then Maynard and Macheda.. other main names being targeted seem to be going against us at this moment, will give you more of an update on all them in a small bit, sorry again for the delay lads, a lot of names to get through!!}
Please someone kidnap Bendtner so that we don´t sign him. Any striker but him I say.
Ruiz may be getting on helicopter for medical ssn
Newcastle has raised the bid for Ruiz and even given him better personal terms. Might get gim still!
31 Aug 2011 19:28:56
Alot of rumours that Nicky Maynard is in Newcastle for a medical
31 Aug 2011 19:26:42
thats it deadline day over for toon no more ins ruiz intrest was too late nufc wont panic buy just wait till jan. (WelshToon)

Just read on the BBC website that Danny Simpson to talk to Aston Villa (Villa wanted Hutton but Hutton going to Fulham)
It's a WUM at work
No its not a WUM. Why not go to the BBC transfer website and see what Dan Roan (BBC Correspondent) has posted or are you to thick to do your research.

Hello ed do you know if there's any truth in Smith moving to Bristol (!) Leeds or Rangers??
Thanks
{Ed042's Note - Has been apparently spotted in all 3 locations today lol he was in Leeds but talk is it was to see family not a move to Elland Road}
I saw him in his car in newcastle today, he wont be leaving.
31 Aug 2011 18:40:21
Just seen meireles going into St James Park with two guys one of which is his agent.... Get in there
Awesome news, box to box player and will get the toon some goooooaaaaalllllsssss sweeeet
Complete load of rubbish.
Ooooh yeeeeaaah, I'm so excited by made up rubbish too. Let's all pretend we're signing Messi. That would be so much fun.......SteveToon
Oh look at you steve....... meireles not messi... div
If this was true, i would kiss my cactus, i just can't see it happenig unfortunately....
Meireles agent? The tall guy with the straight hair, I know who you mean.
Cactus....ummmmmmmm
Or him, wears glasses, has 20 20 vision. Walks with a limp but runs like the wind. Clean shaven bloke with the beard, aye know him well!!
31 Aug 2011 17:19:07
Speculation:
Sky Sports sources understand Newcastle could make a late move to try and hijack Fulham's move for Bryan Ruiz.
Please please make this true
Fulham already signed him. Nufc is too late. They had 3 months time
He WILL be joining fulham
He has signed for Fullham...No striker for us! :(
He hasnt signed for fulham yet and lets be honest if we matched the fee and offered the number 9 theres only 1 place he would be going
Yeah twente have only accepted there bid he hasn't signed yet.
Would rather we met the cisse asking price
This guy was rubbish in goldcup for costa rica, did not have a good lasr season, and is known to be a primadonna with an additudeproblem.. But hey, I will take whatever I get at this point
31 Aug 2011 17:16:58
sky sports reporting we're after ruiz and gonna make a late bid to get him from under fulham's nose
Fulham can offer european football, you have no chance
They can offer European football cus they're gay and are basically rubbish tacklers that's why they got "fair play". Fulham are boring we're exciting once again, and if we signed him could be in Europe the proper way.
Wow the uefa cup i think sunday showed who is the better side and also the number 9 shirt will have a big say if he wants to come to the better club who will finish higher in the table this season he will come to newcastle
31 Aug 2011 17:14:10
Looks like a move for Bryan Ruiz could be on!
Doubt it mate. I know you aren't making it up, but I think Fulham got there ahead of us. If we pull it off, a second victory over Fulham would be brilliant.
31 Aug 2011 17:13:12
The Bentner deal might still be on. He might sign for toon tonight
31 Aug 2011 17:11:43
SSN announce we're trying to 'hijack' Ruiz's move to Fulham, would love it if true.
Geordiesteve
Heard the same hence why Fulham are rumoured to be after Cignac
31 Aug 2011 17:10:20
according to ssn.com we are rumoured to try an hijack fulhams move for ruiz
31 Aug 2011 16:50:46
Heard a lot of things about Andy Carroll returning on loan if Bellamy heads back to Liverpool, I can see this being a possibility as he seems to have fallen out of favour at Liverpool, any views?
Lol fallen out of favour? its been 3 games mate. dalglish is experimenting with the team, end of the day you dont pay 35 million for someone and not give them a decent run of play. basically it wont happen, for arguments sake if it did happen , Its v.likley hed get booed by the fans
Not a hope in hell,they paid 35 million they've got to make it work out.
The only way he should be returning back to us is in an urn....
Must be a rumour. Can't see them allowing him on loan only 7 months after paying £35m for him.
Would be great if true though!
Your probably right about him not coming on loan, but I hav it on very good authority that all is not well within the Liverpool camp where Carroll is concerned. Has already had several run ins with coaching staff over his socialising/boozing. Also he cant abide Gerrard & Carrager! Apparently they're a right set of big headed clicky Bxxxxxd's. But I'm sure I could put up with them for £80,000 a week:)))
Liverpool playing well without gerard dont think he,ll is own way doen there anymore and carrol will probably chin him..lol
31 Aug 2011 16:26:16
any real evidence on us signing/having talks with anyone, other than santon. thanks.
31 Aug 2011 16:18:24
Believe this or don't but I am a driver and have just dropped sturridge off for a medical, he would say if he was on loan or we signing him, good times ahead at toon again
Please hope thats true
Dont believe it mate sorry, so many WUM's today to believe anything anymore!
I dont believe you!
Smb lies
Drive what coz my8 drives for newcastle
That's horse sh*t and bus tickets
Does anyOne actually think we won't buy anyone.. Surely we are just keeping quiet to stop poachers
Alot of newcastles deals have being done under hush. As they don't want them taken by 'better' offers.
31 Aug 2011 16:17:30
Macheda and maiga to sign for the toon
31 Aug 2011 16:13:20
Blackburn bid for ameobi
Which 1
Shola apparently even though he has just signed a new contract
Send him on a free....5hite..
31 Aug 2011 16:02:38
A friend in Manchester just saw Berbatov and a couple of suits getting on the 1557 train to Newcastle. Might we finally get a decent number 9?
31 Aug 2011 15:58:34
its looking much more likely macheda on loan, with option to buy, maiga deal looking highly unlikely.
Macheda is Rubbish, Pardew isnt that stupid.
Since when has Pardew had anything to do with anything related to the team?...he's a frontman, period...he will get who THEY give him.
31 Aug 2011 15:58:24
Abdoul Razzagui camarra has just signed for Sochaux so maiga on his way to newcastle united
31 Aug 2011 15:50:36
Does anyone know anything regarding the continual Smithy to leeds rumours? thought Ken Bates was too tight to meet wage demands even for a loan? Just wont go away and its not just my facebook and twitter comments, honest!
31 Aug 2011 15:49:21
Newcastle also want bryan ruiz. I hope this is true
Hes going to fulham subject to agreeing personal terms
Damn it I just posted this. But yay been saying I wanted him all summer. I'm the annoying bloke who kept mentioning him. SSN is reporting this so we may have a bit of a chance.
31 Aug 2011 15:47:02
Garry O'Connor to Newcastle United after his early season scoring has been noticed south of the border. His short-term contract and improved fitness have attracted Pardew, who is resigned to losing Leon Best to Everton. £120 k to Hibs.
Disagree with everything you just said
What?
How are we going to lose best to everton, they're broke. Sell them ranger.
31 Aug 2011 15:29:40
by no means is this definitive, might be completely made up, but a friend of mine claims to have connections with stuggart, and hes heard reports in germany that the cisse deal from freiburg could still yet be resurrected if newcastle increase the offer with regards to added on extras, i.e. goal bonuses + appearances related extras, although he did add that at this late stage newcastle have turned their attention to other targets and may sign a loan player and leave a possible permanent signing until January
31 Aug 2011 15:13:41
Zarate in England for talks, Newcastle a possibility? What you think ed? {Ed008's Note - Reports in Italy are saying that Inter have agreed a 3m loan deal to take him for the season.
He's joining Inter on loan
31 Aug 2011 15:13:23
Find this hard to beleive as it goes against Newcastle stance on players age's and wages. Alan pardew has apparently begged Fat mike to put together the finances to take Dimitar Berbatov to Newcastle, Not confirmed as to a loan or permanent.
I before e except after c.
They no longer teach that rule
31 Aug 2011 15:09:36
A few rumours about Bassong making a return,can anyone confirm?
Not true. hes in cameroon. id welcome him back tho.
Yes my friend he is coming back we are paying £5m for him, medical after 5pm
Ok some say he is in Cameroon, others say he's coming for medical. Who to believe? Wouldn't have thought he'd go out to Cameroon this early though
Would be good signing might be cheap,could get him.
A gd signing he always out injured can not understand you ppl if where looking at another cb that can offer cover as left back then liam ridgewell is the person i would go for alot better and could get him for a bit cheaper as chirs is looking to sign ranger
Sebastien Bassong is in cameroon for internationals his twitter say so... he flew out yesterday people making up rubbish!
Going to QPR
31 Aug 2011 15:15:03
maiga on his way to Newcastle!! :)
Can someone tell me if there is any truth in this rumour?
31 Aug 2011 15:14:22
We have bid £15 million for Sturridge and looking ot bring Bassong back.
Update to that Chelsea want £18 million.
Fantasy island!
Nope. Not a chance. 15 million? I dont think theyd let him go permanently. As for Bassong, he's in cameroon. Cfmed by Lee Ryder
Just wait and see before shooting the messenger.
I think Sturridge will be worth in excess of 30mil next year,we should grab him if there is any chance Chelsea will allow him to go.
Noway will the fat man stump up 15 million, 5-6 million is the highest he will go, so therefore no chance of getting sturridge.
Apparently sturridge wants out
This rumour is starting build momentum. Chelsea are going to allow him to leave. Liverpool are interested but think they are going for Bellamy.
Would love this to be true. Both quality signings. Unfortunately just can't see it happening though.....but please, please prove me wrong.
31 Aug 2011 15:09:45
maiga to sign today!french football expert just announced on talk sport!
Talksport, the most reliable source then haha
He is coming u just watch
31 Aug 2011 15:08:07
Seb Bassong had been seen at NUFC training ground.
Not true he is in Cameroon!
No he has'nt!!
31 Aug 2011 14:56:53
ed any chance of gignac signing for newcastle on loan?
{Ed020's Note - reports in France suggest there is interest, but we aren't the only team interested}
Yeh would love to see it looks a great player at times.
Just read on Twitter that Marseille's president has confirmed Andre-Pierre Gignac is abroad sorting out a transfer....
Rumour is that gignac is going to fulham along with bryan ruiz
NOT BRYAN RUIZ! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
31 Aug 2011 14:33:29
bendtner signing on loan!
Can someone tell me if there is any truth in this rumour?
31 Aug 2011 14:23:33
Despite what SSN & BBC sources are saying about the Macheda deal being dead in the water. My source has told me that he expects Macheda to join Newcastle this evening.
Sydney!
{Ed042's Note - His agent has said so, its a go to emergency deal I think}
Yes, apparently Macheda is back-up for you guys if you cannot get anyone in in time.
Sydney!
He'd be behind sammi and vuckic in my opinion. Pointless signing.
31 Aug 2011 13:18:14
toon awaiting malonys medical results at wigan b4 completing rodellega signing... £8.3 million 5 yr contract
Dtoon
Rodagella not a striker!
Hmm. Not sure about this one, but rather Rodallega than no one
Who is rodagella... post is about the wigan striker i believe???
Whelan would not sell to Ashley for that price, it would be hugely inflated, more like £12m. I do like him though, and think he is the kind of player who would look good with better players around him.
RodaLLEGA.....shocking! The spelling on this site is atrocious.
Maloneys a winger so this makes about as much sense as an Alan pardew substitution
@6 read the post properly mate - he is saying that Pardew is waiting for Wigan to sign Maloney before they will release Hugo Rodallega.
Geordiesteve
31 Aug 2011 12:55:14
Coloccini having medical at Arsenal
H hardley
Load of crap! colloccini is loving life as toon captain he wont leave for another english club, maybe abroad though!
Yeah right SMB. Williamson is out for 6 weeks. We have no cover as it is for CB. No chance.
Another SMB posting on our forum. Colo wont go to Arsenal (fact)
Hang on maybe its true.. williamson out for 6, no back up and no plan B....balls he's on his way :)
Collochini is in north london alright, but to sign for spurs.
Heard that one the other day about colocini to spurs
Arsenal are on the drop we're on the rise. Anyone can see that. Know we're still not as good as them, but I'm saying we're getting better Arsenal aren't.
31 Aug 2011 12:49:39
Bendtner Not Going To Stoke, Will We Go In For Him Now ?
31 Aug 2011 12:40:00
Any know anything of substance in these Zamora rumour that are flying around Facebook banter pages?
Few people mentioning he's boarded a train at Kings Cross up the east coast mainline?
You'd of thought he'd of got on a plane considering how little time is left.
Ive herd the same mate
Hearing He Is On The Way Up
Injury prone though?
I agree with both comments would have got the plane up! and too injury prone waste of money!
Old, injury prone and = hoof ball, no better than bothroyd
Tbh were gunna be linked with alot of strikers today.
31 Aug 2011 12:36:49
Any More News On A Striker?
Bendtner has turned down a move to Stoke, probably not what we need, as we could do with pace to stretch defences like Bellamy used too, but still a tidy player, and he knows the English game.......Chorltoon.
31 Aug 2011 12:34:15
Andre-Pierre Gignac and Daniel Sturridge coming to Newcastle before the transfer deadline :)
Dreams are made of these!. Positive thinking....I like it!
No gignac.... sturridge and balotelli both in! finally going to spend sum ov the £35m! accumulating to £30m! £5m on bassong!
I like the optimism of the comment about spending the 35 mil. This will not happen. we might spend 5-10 if were lucky. Adstatoon
Balotelli wont be coming. Not a cat in hells chance. Ashley doesn't like bad boys
Would love balotelli to come, hes on 100k a week though so wont happen unless man city pay 50-60k of it and he actually wants to come, he would probably favour a move back to italy. if he hates manchester chances are he wont like newcastle much either
Yeah right i dont think ashley would spend around £30m on two players
Considering hes already spent close to 15 million, on some exciting signings, some of our fans are never happy, this is hypothetical before an SMB comments, but we could sign ronaldo for 80 million and some fans would still bitch about wanting messi for 100 mil, lets wait until 11pm at least to start moaning about money spent
31 Aug 2011 12:06:47
fernando gago of real madrid is on a plane to england, are we interested?/
Man city
31 Aug 2011 12:02:44

31 Aug 2011 11:35:02
Any news on signings ed?
Cheers.
{Ed042's Note - Not as yet mate sorry, give me about an hour and I will post an update to this thread}
Hi ed042 any news yet on signings you said an our sick of me hubby saying we getting zamora and they getting cisse??
{Ed042's Note - your hubby is right Zamora is a possibility, Cissè looks highly unlikely, they want £15m, I think we would buy Sturridge if we were willing to go to £15m}
Its been an hor ed dont keep us waiting lol (sorry i realise your busy but suspence is killing me)
{Ed042's Note - Right sorry for the delay, its a nightmare trying to find out anything, will list them off below and what I know as things stand, very hard to look in depth into stuff deadline day, anyway here goes, deep breath...
Main Targets...
Maiga... looks all but dead unless Sochaux sign another striker, if they do a deal could be pushed quickly but not optimistic as things stand
Cissè... unless we meet the £15m the want he is going nowhere and it looks doubtful we will at the moment
Roux... sporting director has said that he wont move as we had to avail of bid and release 5 days ago, very slim chance of it still but unlikely
Loan Deals...
Gignac... no real substance to back it up yet but we have been linked on more than one occasion and he is said to be coming to England today
Macheda... interest has cooled because of the fee to buy him at end of loan is said to be approx. £7m, which is too high in nufc opinion
Ballotelli... linked with us purely out of relationship with Santon, again loan with option to buy for £14m touted, stronger links with Spurs and Arsenal at the moment
Sturridge... always was going to be linked, AVB seems keen on him though so a loan deal without option to buy would be most likely which I doubt we would go for unless extremely stuck, and even at that I would say it would be a 6 month loan deal at most
Ones to keep an eye on...
Maynard... was rumours last night of a £5m bid, Bristol unwilling to sell to direct competition and Leicester failed with bids of over £6m, have since been rumoured ot have signed Beckford
Rodallega... Stoke said to be interested, we have been linked but Dave Whelan wouldnt make it easy for us
Zamora... Rumoured to be on his way up North, has been left out by Fulham recently due to injury, suspect whether he was though
Kalou... Rumoured to be allowed to leave for right price, has been mooted links to nufc, could be a possibility due to being interested in Sturridge
Bendtner... Is not moving to Stoke, Sporting deal collapsed so we are the only other main contenders for his signature over the past month, unless a late bid has come in from someone else or he has been convinced to stay at Arsenal (unlikely) it could be a possibility
Other names linked with nothing to back them up as yet...
Zarate... Ogunjimi... Mouloungui
Thats what I know for the moment, sorry all, as I said nea rimpossible to get anything definitive
{Ed042's Note - Any other names you have heard linked post them and i`ll update, probably have missed a couple, brain is fried already}
Cheers for the update ed
Will be chuffed to bits if we sign Bendtner.
Maybe a cheeky double bid for sturridge and kalou?
So sad if we end up with a crappy player like Bendtner. Didn´t you promise us at least a striker today Ed? Looks like we won´t sign anyone today. Not even the try-out players??
{Ed042's Note - News to me that I ran the club, if I had known earlier I would have signed someone mate, why didnt you let me know?}
Nice one ed.
31 Aug 2011 11:48:40
Derek has told both Chelsea and Man Utd that we will not take players on loan...They must have an option to buy!
Well derek why dont you just f**k off and spend some money or the 10000 less fans at the st james last weekend might be a regular thing.
{Ed042's Note - There was 2K less than the same fixture last year, and the away end was extended by 1K.. so essentially 1K less toon supporters.. feel your frustration though mate, imagine how frustrating it is for me having to investigate 50 rumours and them getting knocked back one by one, hold the nerve until around 4pm, then its time to start worrying}
31 Aug 2011 11:44:32
Cisse not coming :(
News: Bundesliga governing body DFL produce a transferable list - anyone not on this cannot move - No Papiss Cisse or Franck Ribery
Thats off SSN
Yeah your super chairman strikes again ha ha freiberg want 13m so he offered just under 9m ha ha ha sgb
WHY U SURPRISED... MA always does this... puts bids in to trick fans into wow we are trying... but we all know its bollox
31 Aug 2011 11:42:02
Am at carlisle races today and just heard from a horse trainer that Pardew trying to get Owen back on loan.
Dont be stupid.
Alright mackem! is that your summer holiday carlisle ?
That bridge burnt more times than the one over kwai
I think you misunderstood him. AP was trying to get a loan off michael owen cause ashley wont stump up cash and owen's got for few quid from his time with us
DL publicly dissed him after MO said we were a rubbish club. So no chance in a million years.
31 Aug 2011 11:38:04
Loan move for sturridge expected immenently.
Going to be honest, Would love this, but i don't see this happening, we have being linked on and off with Sturridge, and Villa-boas has said he is holding onto him anyway. Adstatoon.
We will only take the player with an option to buy!
Links? Evidences? I'll be happy enuf if its only half a season. But, if you're right, oh well, i heard it here first. Class. but hadnt the club gave a reason stating hes too expensive?
31 Aug 2011 11:26:58
hey Ed, i know this is a long shot, But on the bbc sport deadline day, Someone wrote from a twitter account saying 'Bobby Zamora at Kings station on a train heading to Newcastle' any news on this? Adstatoon
{Ed042's Note - None mate sorry, if it appears anywhere else keep me informed, twitter alone has linked us with about 50 strikers this morning}
Ok, Thanks ed, keep up the good work. Adstatoon
31 Aug 2011 11:27:05
cisse deal dead his club have turned down our offer!
Why should a deal be dead because an offer has been turned down?
There are such things as improved offers.
31 Aug 2011 11:23:25
Any Strikers On The Way?
Heard bobby zamora mentioned
31 Aug 2011 11:19:34
Balotelli player profile removed from Man City website......
As Much As This Would Be Great, I Just Can't See Him Coming Up Here
I don't see it, we just got rid of Joey who had a couple of screws loose, now we bring in Mad Mario who is certifiably bat-sh*t mental.
Adebayor profile still there he is gone so wouldnt take much notice of that
Man City are adebayor's parent club tho
31 Aug 2011 11:16:17
Just spoke to danny guthrie with his gf in toys r us metro... said hes staying put today.
Shame that!!
Just spoke to MA in KFC... he too is staying puy
31 Aug 2011 11:13:44
carlton cole on his way to toon for talks!
31 Aug 2011 11:13:40
It is exciting just now. Heard the Maiga definately won't happen as Sochaux are refusing to sell to us. I'm ok with this as I see him as a risk.
That means we are setting our sights on Demba Cisse who I think is a quality player. May take £11.5-13m to get him but a proven goalscorer in decent league at a lower club.
Also, Balotelli? Whats this? Apparently friends with Santon and would be interested in a loan move.........................Surely not?
Geo
Balotelli wages are too much, however i think if we can get City to pay majority wages. we may get lucky, but tbh i don't see Ashley parting with much more than 10 million to sign players
Adstatoon
Balotelli? Surely he wanna check out how simple our beeps are before joining? :D
On a serious note, no, I wouldn't sign him even if he's the last striker on earth. Would completely destroy the team spirit.
Or, maybe santon can be the better man and teach him a few things.
31 Aug 2011 10:58:21
marvin emnes to sign for toon for 4m!
31 Aug 2011 10:57:03
Newcastle to get Balotelli from Man City for £14 million or on loan with buy out clause for that price.
Best mates with Santon and one of the reasons Santon signed!!
Watch this space!
Balotelli have a word with yourself he is on 250,000 a wk at man city!
Hope not
I hope for the sake of your sanity mate that you don't believe that.
Go away
We wouldn't Spalsh 14mil on 1 player anyway.....
Ridiculous.
His profile has been removed from city website, however I have info he's going 2 spurs
Hahhahaa
31 Aug 2011 10:52:36
There's a twitter rumour linking us with Mario Ballotelli..
Basically NUFC will be linked with every man and his dog by the end of the day.
Pete
Only being linked with Balotelli because Santon said he was a good friend in his interview, no substance whatsoever.
Balotelli to Tottenham £14 million move.
31 Aug 2011 10:51:25
has anyone else heard on talk sport that we are going to try and get james millner in?
If i'm not mistaken James Milner was a newcastle player in his early carrer, and things didn't end to well.
Nothing wrong at all with milner at SJP, just he was sold behind keegans back
He will end up at ambitious QPR lol
31 Aug 2011 10:49:57
Kevin Doyle Or Hugo Rodallega Still Possible Targets ?
You can kiss my hairy black country ass,Doyle ain't leavin wolves,dream on and light another tab up lol!
31 Aug 2011 10:49:22
bid for cisse
Alan Pardew had a £10million bid rejected, he will come back with a higher offer.
31 Aug 2011 10:21:06
Adam johnson 15mil
Shut he would be at least 20m and will stay at Man City, why leave Man city who could win the premiership to go to a newcastle who will be in a relegation battle by the end of the season
{Ed042's Note - Do me a favour mate, leave it out for today ha I have too much to do without moderating your constant mails winding up geordies lol you know Sunderland are after players too yeah?}
Mancini's already came out and said he's not for sale or available for a loan move. He's staying at Man City.
We wouldnt spend 15m on one player anyway.
Sorry ed banter man! can't go through the day without my daily put some looney geordies in their place, but yeah important day for both our clubs with transfers
{Ed042's Note - Haha you`re grand lad, enjoy the banter from you normally but todays a bad day for it, i`m spending the translating foreign languages in between answering questions here, bottle of whiskey already looking tempting lol}
Grow up smb
Ed, do you think Marouane Chamakh or Saloman Kalou are available ?
{Ed042's Note - Yes for the right price, said two months ago we should go for Kalou, think he is very underrated, havnt heard us linked though}
Thanks. Yes thats what i thought aswell, what do you think the price would be around £6m?
{Ed042's Note - Yeah around that id say up front, with add ons probably closer to 8 to 10}
It's really annoying as a newcastle fan atm, because we just won't spend the cash to challenge for Europa league, and i seems the only way we will get in is though a cup, or the fair play (ok maybe not the fair play)

Any Striker News? Since The Maiga & Roux Deals Look Dead
Yeah macheda on loan, thats your top signing if it comes off
Wolves after Hooper from Celtic, may well be worth a punt with a bid from the Toon. Lee Graham
Yes, coz that's what we do, take punts on donkeys. Shutup you muppet and take a punt on keeping quiet.

Sochaux have insisted that they will not be selling forward Modibo Maiga on transfer deadline day - SSN Transfer Center
Well ive been watching sinse 08:00 and i aint seen that..
It's On The Newcastle Page On Sky Sports Website
It's on the website.
hope we got an alternative lined up. not being racist, but i'd prefer a non-african striker any how, cos we could already lose shola and ba to the african nations cup and losing a 2nd or 3rd striker to that could be dangerous for our season.
"Not being racist..but" best opening to any comment, ever. I agree though, we would end up possibly losing another player to the cup of nations.

Hi Ed. I know your crazy busy but can you confirm if we are in for ROUX now ? thanks.
{Ed042's Note - Brest president said no deal in place and he is on holiday so Roux wont be moving}
S**T,That just screwed my day!, Fancy sharing that bottle of whiskey Ed.
{Ed042's Note - Get your own lol if I disappear for a while its because i`m gone to the pub to get a 2nd bottle!}

im working at the marriott today, fitting new fire doors in the kitchens and alan pardew and that striker we want from fance just walked in, with the agent i believe.
What, they just walked into the kitchen??
would've thought they'd at least have booked a private meeting room.
Yes because you could recognise a person you have never seen before
Cisse or Maiga, cause we want Cisse, but will settle for Maiga.
You can't afford Cisse and Maiga is going nowhere watch SSN now
Fitting new kitchen doors with your laptop are you?
Its called having an iphone!! blackberry!! some people have good phones you no. and i was in the car park at the van getting tools, so there you go. i never said they walked into the kitchen you idiot.
After these few days i reckon the Marriott will be losing a lot of business from da toon
What a coincidence you are fitting doors there today. Keep us all informed please you SMB
Did you by any chance take a picture with your flash phone?
Blackberry hardly a flash phone
How many sodding people work at the marriot? every1 who post on here is at the marriot lol
It's better than bloody corries this Marriott caper,you glories slay me man,have a kebab and a tab lads give yourselves a pat on the back.

any news on the striker front? why are we going for the affrican players, does the newcastle board not no that the affrica cup of nations is next year?
Good point mate, we need to go for a player from europe
Simply put, because they are cheaper
31 Aug 2011 08:57:41
I'm from London but a toon supporter there are a lot of rumours that we could be in for crouch
Hope not .
31 Aug 2011 08:34:33
Swansea now seem to be in the lead over Darnell Situ.
I hope we can show our financial strength on him, as i see him as CB backup.
Still no word on Remy tho.
Apparently the reason we havent signed him yet is MA doesnt want to write a release clause into his contract. Which is quite right imo, wouldnt want to see him leave for peanuts like when we stole Cabaye.
Well we should put a release clause in, But it increases By 5 million each year and start it off at a 4 mil buyout/
31 Aug 2011 08:43:36
Newcastle has raised the bid for Cisse to 14£ millions...hope we get him!!
Hope so too mate, 34 goals on 43 games for a perrenial struggler...
We haven't really raised the bid we just used the £3M saved on want away Joey
wages.seems much better use of the money to me
Love it if it's true but why put a post up without source, clearly a smb bored during a break in Jeremy Kyle! Is ranger going to Birmingham ED? Saw a rumour on twitter and makes sense with hughton being there. A deal with Scott dann coming other way could be usefull
{Ed042's Note - Was interest for past two weeks in taking him, thought it may die down with recent assault story but clubs seem to want to take him so I would presume there is truth to it}
Hope so . Great striker worthy of number 9 just can't see us paying that amount
Yeah right now time to go back to the looney hospital
31 Aug 2011 02:31:38
Ed Please tell me what is going on! I hear:
Macheda on loan ( 50/50)?
Maiga ( quite likely )?
Any others?
Thanks in advance! CambsToon
{Ed042's Note - Macheda wont be signed unless there is an option to buy, loan deals dont seem to be wanted by the board and the fee-to-buy is too high at the moment... Maiga is likely with Sochuax signing a striker but its a messy transfer in general, hard to know where exactly it is at... a lot of other names being touted, have covered them on Discussion Posts but as far as the two you`ve mentioned they should go one way or the other early enough tomorrow, will know better where we stand then mate}
Thanks! :)

some reports in spain suggest that newcastle are preparing a late bid 25 million bid for athletico bilbao striker fernando llorente just wondering ed have you heard anything on the ed cos his name has popped up a few times now
marknufc
{Ed042's Note - Haha the fee should say it all Mark lad.. if Derek spent that much on a player Mike would sack him on the spot and probably beat the life out of him too.. no sorry mate, as optimistic as I am now that the big man is withdrawing money from the ATM 25 mil is way out of our league}
Thought so but always best to make sure lol did you get ma reply to the other comment mate
{Ed042's Note - Haha we can always dream.. I did mate, just replied there}
That gave me a laugh, all good craic lmao
Wish this was true, i mean if we want to compete for Europa / Top 6 we need to spend the cash.
If we got him we'd be in Europa by the end of this season. Sadly though it's as likely as signing david villa.

i work at the marriott and a man has just checked in he was african with a translator but i heard newcastle, heres hoping lads (mick the tab)
Was he speaking french, or swahili or something? (Sorry if that comes off a bit rascist, don't know any other african language).
31 Aug 2011 00:42:09

{Ed042's Note - Looks unlikely tbh mate.. latest info I know is here www.twitlonger.com/show/cpbld3 }
