  1. Yeah, if he agrees to sign a contract, which he obviously wont if he has a better offer.
  2. I'd say 8/10 Getting rid of Austin, Clasie, Targett and Gallagher permanently is a reasonable start and I don't think we could have hoped for much better. Happy with the players we've brought in, even if I've seen very little of them before.
  3. Obviously that option means Jack S**t if someone else comes in for him but if he turns out half as good as Toby was for a season, then leaves, I'll take that.
  4. Rubber dingy rapids, bro!
  5. Technically, they still haven't announced that Safri is leaving.
  6. Giving the beer a miss, the machine at the gym reckons I’ve gained 1.5kg of fat recently
  7. Sat refreshing twitter and I noticed Carroll was trending. If that does sum Newcastle's summer up I don't know what does. Still, he will at least manage to get fit for both games against us and score at least one goal, five minutes after he should have been sent off for elbowing one of our defenders. I'll get you some crayons.
  8. I just wanna Danso night away With senoritas who can sway.
  9. Speak for yourself. I'm not sure how he gets this natural goalscorer tag on the back of 16 goals in 3.5 years. Good luck to him in the Championship, if he stays reasonably fit he should be able to get double figures this season. Overall I'm just glad he is (mostly) off the wage bill.
  10. There will almost certainly be some sort of payoff to cover the difference in wages over the rest of his Saints contract.
  11. I don’t know what the laws are either but it’s worth pointing out you aren’t in a public space, you’re on private property.
  12. Put me in the 'no' camp for Morgan and Vic. Both were good in their time here but that time has past. Now they're just expensive has-beens.
  13. No, his biggest crime is being perennially unfit and jogging around the pitch like a Sunday League striker. Which game was it when he touched the ball 8 times? Possibly Fulham away. Acting like a melon on social media is just a sideshow. If he was performing every week I couldn't care less if he spent his free time out dogging with Lovren and Westwood but he isn't. It rubs fans up the wrong way and probably a few within the club as well.
  14. As fans we do. It's like saying we might as well have let Lallana go free because we don't get any money. If we'd done that we wouldn't have been able to buy Mane and Tadic. It only means SFA if you pretend there is no connection between finances and whats on the pitch. Under Poortvleit our bank balance was quite apparent on match days.
  15. No, it means we get £40m+ if he wants to leave next summer, instead of about £15m.
  16. Quite a long walk from the car park there, I hope they’ve got a golf buggy.
  17. The cynic within me suspects we are being lubed up for a rather disappointing end to the window with this news.

  20. Better. I think ‘good’ is pushing it a bit.
  21. We’ve got one already in Bednarek and just behind him Klarer. £14m would just buy another flawed defender, which is of no use. If we’re going to draw any conclusions I’d say; 1. The club has more faith in Klarer making an impact than Sims 2. Were in the market for a £20-30m CB but that’s conditional on some serious gardening to the wage bill.
  22. We can, we’re just spending our money very badly elsewhere. It’s like spending £200k on a rusty Vauxhall, then complaining that all your friends can afford Ferrari’s and you can’t.
  23. Swansea and Brum have won cups recently too.
  24. No doubt but the £14m we spent on him wouldn’t even buy Matt Targett in this window. We need a £30m player to improve our back line not another Hoedt or Vestegaard.
  25. I tried but I must have gone to the wrong Blue Oyster.
