Sticking around where you're emphatically told you're not wanted always works out well.

He'd just signed a 5.5 year contract worth over £10m, what were the club going to do? Stick their best forward in the reserves and let him run the contract down?

We had Colo, Krul, Enrique, Nolan, Carroll.

All would still walk into their squad let alone the Championship. Who have they got realistically that will be of any benefit?

Remy not wanting to play for us is the key difference.

 

We're talking about the lad who f***ed off at the first chance

 

Did he 'fuck off' or was he pushed?

 

Mind you having seen what Ashley is like at first hand and close up I'd have wanted to 'fuck off' too.

Moot point really. We wont be spending this type of money in the near future anyway.

 

Loanees, swaps or frees all the way.

If he didn't want to leave he wouldn't have but I really can't be arsed to get into this debate again Lets just say he didn't seem overly gutted.

If we are going to persist with Bassett Pardew then surely it would make sense to give him the target man he so clearly needs and of that kind of player,  there is no better than Andy Carroll in this country anyhow.

The sort of money it would take to get Carroll (wages and fee) we could probably get Remy who would be a lot better signing imo.

I'm still not overly sold on him, physically he is a beast and can dominate any defender but the technical side of his game isn't the greatest not to mention his injuries and lifestyle.

 

 

 

The technical side of his game's not the greatest says Gouffran's no.1 fan.

Is Lee related to Shaun?

This is the perfect opportunity to get the kids in the side though, not that we will take it.

Clearly v injury prone, whether or not that has anything to do with how he looks after himself is up for debate.

 

He's 25 now so I'm not sure how he's going to grow into himself like

Was going to say the same, he's hardly a kid.

Pardew's ideal (realistic) team would be something like this -

 

                Krul

 

Debuchy Willo Colo Dummet

Sissoko Noble Tiote Jonas

          Gouffran Carroll

 

 

He has already loaned out Jonas and hasn't played Gouffran upfront even when we have really struggled for centre forward.

Stick Gouffran in for Jonas and an extra man in midfield.

West Ham spent around £15m on Andy Carroll at the start of this season. I wouldn't want NUFC to pay anything like that for Andy Carroll. For one thing his fitness record is not good.

 

Really not fussed where they come from as long as they are good players.

There's nothing about Kevin Friend that doesn't piss me off.

Surely you must love the Friend puns the commentators will come out with 15 times a match?.

We didn't pay them £1m, we offered them it which allowed us to talk to him.

 

Put him, Dummett and Campbell in a house together and set fire to it tbh.

 

As time has went on it is becoming more clear to me that the reasons why Barton and Nolan were shipped out was not because they disagreed with Ashley but in the training ground they stood up to Pardew.

 

Sure Barton praised Hughton/Pardew, they were shipped out because they wouldn't agree to Ashley's bonuses, or lack of them. It was Ashley they stood up to and got flogged for it.

 

Barton praised Hughton, not Pardew. Even recall a post-match interview where he said it was the team spirit Hughton had installed in them that made them win, not Pardew.

 

Sure he praised him in the interview i seen not long ago when talking about leaving Newcastle, and he was certainly mentioned him with praise on Twitter recently. Think it was around the headbutt situation. Barton has seemingly only had problems with Ashley and others at board level in terms of why he left.

He's a football manager which means all common sense should go out of the window, surely?

I was a clogger but agree with every word

Hurts reading stuff like that

what a flute.

 

Is that lass on a house phone?

Tbh Ashley wouldn't give a fuck, if anything the media reports would mention Sports Direct so he would have benefited from more free advertisiting.

Sadly there really isn't much we can do, he will fuck off when he thinks we are more trouble than we are worth.

Elliot would probably be a better fit for Barca, not even joking.

Like Gouffran Anita is being judged on the stuff he shouldn't be doing.

He's a very good footballer, due to mismanagement he is being asked to do things he isn't really capable of.

Looks an intelligent player tbh, just not scoring which isn't a surprise with how we set up. I wouldn't be eager for us to spend what is likely to be our entire transfer budget on him but if we were a relatively normal team with a half decent manager I think he would be a good addition.

Never had Sweden down as a rough country, too many stunning women to raise anything but your penis.
