Big Geordie

Anyone would think the man is doing it on purpose! It's gonna be a Sports Direct sign going up in it's place and another well aimed kick in the balls for the supporters. Shameful.

The OP is spot on. People (myself included) are just fed up of the constant stream of lies and half-truths that come from the club (of which Pardew is complicit too) Due to the moving fans business, he now has us fighting amongst ourselves and whilst that happens it deflects away from his asset stripping of the club. I can't wait to see the accounts when they are due and I'd wager he will be worrying about that now, which is why he has probably raked in as much as he could get away with. Tell the truth for christ's sake - is it too much to ask? I would also like the local media to ask some serious questions of what has not happened, but that's not gonna happen. They are content to tow the club line and string fans along to sell more copy. Pack of c**ts the lot.

And of course now there is an international break and no home game for 2.5 weeks. Plenty of time for the anger to calm doen eh? Ashley and Llambias will be pissing themselves.

Why are some of you surprise d? Was always going to happen. More fake bids, etc and people lap it up. Looks like Keegan was right in saying the Carroll cash would not be spent and yet plenty called him at the time for saying as much. Plenty of humble pie to be eaten!

Left it far too late once again - I'm a cynic in believing that it was never an intention to spend the Carroll money on bringing in a replacement. I hope I am proven wrong, however.

I know this is meant a bit in jest, but in all seriousness it can't have gone un-noticed (the big drop in attendances) Even Ashley and Llambias aren't that blind.

Does sound very much like a terrific signing and I look forward to seeing the lad in action. Still need a striker in, cover at DC and a replacement for Barton though.

Looks like Keegan is gonna be right about the Carroll money not being spent then. This was always going to happen and yet if it does, people will still make excuses for Ashley.

Interesting link, but again we can only believe it if and when the kid signs on. Wondering why if he is so highly rated as to why Inter want shot? Are they in financial difficulty or does the lad want first team football which they can't give him?

So predictable. Deal won't go through and Llambias (via Pardew) will blame PSV and/or agents for the delay.

Did well today, and a very classy turn and finish for his second. Definitely worth keeping around, IMO. Lovenkrands on the other hand......

Is Wenger being allowed to spend though?

Arsenal were as awful today as Man United were brilliant. Pressure is really on Wenger now - suspect there will be a deluge of Gooners ringing in 606 wanting him sacked.

Eh? How did you draw those conclusions from those quotes? Reading between the lines from what Pardew has said in recent days, and the history of this regime lying to the fans. We were told Pieters would be over the line (and signed by now) Where is he? It's all bullshit man which is being lapped up by the likes of you who will still make excuses come Thursday when Ryan Taylor is our LB.

Looking like no-one will be coming in before Weds, other than a very cheap deal or two (ala Kuqi) as I said yesterday. Another disasterous window with Ashley and Llambias sticking Pardew out to dry, though he is complicit too.

I'd hope the local media are ready with pens poised to have a go at the regime if the run up to Wednesday and the day itself turns out to be disappointing as we all expect. I won't hold my breath on them having a go though. It'll be more sycophantic arselicking.

Just seen the Drogba challenge - not at all good and I hope the lad is alright.

I'd go with the school of thought that whilst this lad might have potential, we need someone proven in. Unfortunately, it's not gonna happen and we'll more than likely end up with another Kuqi type signing on deadline day. The transfer of Pieters seems to be taking a long time to sort as well. Poor from NUFC once again.

Formica missed a pen for Blackburn - hit the post.

Just been reading the last few pages - Steve Wraith is nothing more than a self-publicizing knob-jockey. Another 'Frank Gilmore', IMO.

Splinter was wise as f***! Yes he was and now we have turtle chaos :mackems: Is it Ashington that sounds like that? Aye Not really!

A waste of talent if this turns out to be true. Any one of us would give their right arm to have the chance that he has had and yet he acts like a total arsehole and could not only find himself sacked from the club, but sent to jail too. What a loser.

Another away draw?

Llambias - an utter c**t of a man. Said it before and today won't be the last.

Taylor? Coloccini? Taylor is gormless and Colo doesn't strike me as a big personality even though he is massive player for us on the pitch. I can't see him knocking heads together or rankling the opposition.
