Welcome back, Always. What's this, your 3rd account now? Remember the last time you were whinging about mistaken identity 😂

Bookmarked for a weeks time 👍

No - we've just taken all of the guaranteed goals out of the side and wont win enough games.

We fucked up messing around with trying to haggle and Leeds put the money down and got him. Che isn't staying, we haven't got someone better lined up. We'll replace Che with some no mark for more than what Piroe would have cost us.

I was on about Piroe. The most obvious L4l replacement of Che we could have asked for.

Maybe, but he's so slow that the ball would be out for a throw in by the time he gets there.

We've just let our replacement walk to Leeds. That's the issue.

So it turns out Wilcox isn't the Messiah he's been made out to be?

It always has been. That was always where he was ending up.

You've got your head in the sand somewhat here. We all know how this ends.

I genuinely cannot believe we've let the most obvious replacement who can slot straight in, go to leeds (ready to play for this game week) and (apparently) left Adams out because he's clearly being sold. What a pathetically unambitious club we are 😂

Ross Stewart? 😉

No Adams = no threat or ability to hold the ball up. 2-1 defeat.

Probably the same person who told him we had a winger in for a medical today before the news broke. Clearly has some info from someone.

McCarthy cannot play a single minute under Martin. I was there at the bournemouth game pre-season where he had an absolute shit show with the ball at his feet. Playing McCarthy would be an absolute disaster.

I think if SAA was ready to start regularly, he already would be. I think SAA will be the first name on the teamsheet come the end of the season, regardless of who we sign. Edozie.. Meh, average player imo.

Or the fact being deeply embedded with the CoT means I know 'Mental Manji' is talking out of his arse. Keep lapping it up tho nipper - We've got loads of signings lined up - we're on the charge across this week with our war chest.

Armstrong isn't a number 9. Ballard unproven at this level. going into the season with Che as our only feasible option to rely upon would be suicide. That's ignoring the fact Che is likely to leave.

Manji hasn't got a clue what he's on about. He likes to pretend his 'ITK' but he just talks absolutely shit because his tongue is lodged firmly up the arse of the hipster favourite, Rasmus

Would you signing a deal to risk an injury would could potentially scupper a deal to a top PL side? I don't think I would. The same could be said of JWP - he had a decision to make, he could have stayed and fought to get us back. What does that say about his character?

They're getting a winger we wanted - much like the Piroe deal, this is not a good outcome for us at all.

so it turns out that all those targets happy to wait for us, are really just waiting for Leeds to pip us to the post 😂

Reeks of get it wide and whip it in to that 6'7 donkey to head it over

funny enough, I think he'll be absolutely superb in Martins system. Is he injured still?

Lets get a few things clear for some who don't know what they're talking about.. He didn't down tools - he refused to extend his contract for 8 games following the post covid break. During that time, he was in fine form and attracted interest from top 6 clubs (Arsenal and Liverpool). Because of the above, he and Howe don't get on - remember Howe also lost pretty much all of the dressing room the following season at Bournemouth as well - which has meant he's had little to no chance up there when Howe arrived. From a newcastle season ticket holder, who I work with: "I've got nothing bad to say about him, has been a solid servant when required. Great winger if you have a center forward willing to gamble on his balls into the area." Loan with very little risk - not much to not like about this one imo.
