Laudrup's a good shout though

He'd be f***ing insane to give up Hamburg to come here!!

nah he's a t***. I've always said he was the most overrated player in this league, and i think he and paul scholes, get away with murder. I despise him (probably more than any Arsenal player bar eboue and gallas). You like Eboue and Gallas!?!?!

Absolute fucking mess!!!

Just got this on an e-mail: Newcastle United had accepted an offer of significant investment into the club from Adhu Dhabi United Group. As this developed through August a number of high profile world stars were lined up to sign for NUFC. These signings were to be a statement of intent one of which is the now known about Robinho deal for Man City. Kevin stated he did not want players motivated by money at the team he wanted a team with heart and soul. Mike Ashley supported Keegan and attempted to still bring in the investment. The ADUG thereon insisted on Keegans departure prior to investing. The deal fell apart at the last minute because of Kevins caring stance that players must care for the club and want to play football. Events of the investment in Manchester City now show you the ramifications of that decision not to sack Keegan. The money at the 11th hour was invested into MC and therefore this has caused huge difficulty for all. The board are currently in discussions about resolutions to a number of issues.

Slightly harsh considering, still had a giggle though!!

This tbh!

Jesus wept, some of the absolute shite being spouted in here!!! Its like reading the gutter press (and their hate campaign against us) some of it. Lock the fucker....infact lock the board for a few hours, fucks sake!!! Un-friggin-believable

Is there not a chance that we've been after others but just haven't been able to get them to sign or wrap up deals?!?!? Slightly disappointing but not the end of the world!!!

Selling him for as little as £2 million?!?!?! Asbolutely fucking clueless the press at the moment....bellends!!

WHO?!?!?

Birmingham are absolutely gonna piss the Championship this year imo. Could have it sewn up by February!

This!

Was just gonna mention this!! Steve Wilson you are an absolute cunt of the highest order! What gives him the right to state that he shouldn't be involved and that the FA should throw the book at him. Prick!

Seriously though why are .com stirring it up so much, almost as bad as the bastard S*n some of the drivel they're coming out with!! Tits.

Re first sentance. What a load of rubbish! OK, so he could have put a request in sooner. Maybe something has happened to tip the balance in the favour of moving in the last week. Would you rather he drops hints in the papers that he wants awy whilst sitting on a loyalty bonus from us? Its refreshing to see players slap in a transfer request when they want to leave. Barry could learn a lot here Did you read this mate? This is after LAST NIGHT'S game!! http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/nufc/newcastle-united-news/2008/08/27/james-milner-happy-to-focus-on-football-72703-21615391/

Ken Bates: Meanwhile, the club is also monitoring events elsewhere during the transfer window with the chairman revealing a possible windfall could be in the pipeline. "We have a sell-on clause on a player in demand at another club," he explained. "We were approached to take a figure to buy out the rights which suggests he may be set to move on. "We're happy to ride with it, see what happens and take our share." Don't want to give them cunts owt, let him rot

Wounded!!!!

Well that article makes him out to be a complete twat IMO. Can't think about anything other than football eh? That soon changed didn't it? Ugly cunt, fuck off!!!

Priceless!!! HAHAHA

Thinking about it and I think we should play at Villa's game. If they asked for £18mil for Barry, we should hold out for £15mil at least, I mean he has got age on his side!!

SWP would be an excellent replacement, as I'm sure Keegan would be the man to get the best out of him. Though from what I have seen of him, he suffers from the same lack of killer ball as Milner. At least SWP looks like he can take people on and go past them though, Milner's seemingly forgotten how to do it. Well apart from when he's playing against sides from lower divisions!! Maybe he's pissed off cos they're making him pay for his private box this year

What did he say? Missed it....

Sure he put in a good performance last night...against a championship side. Would personally snap Villa's hand off (so to speak) if they offered £9-10m, lacks the cutting edge for me. Sell Milner, get SWP in!

Sure there'll be plenty others he can choose from!!!
