He had a medical with us though. Not sure he did.

Christ, that would be possibly the first time I'd actually crack a smile at Spurs nicking one of or signings. The thought of Harrys face, man alive.

Right. I don't give a shit who you sign for anymore. Just sign for somebody, and sharpish.

Shame, feel very little for Demba now. Had thought he'd end up one of those players that I'd look back on in a few years and get all emotional. Like Micky Quinn... Newcastle Fan On talkSPORT Clips Of The Week ...scored so many goals...

Your brain may be 'well and truly fucked' if you believe that that is what Caulkin is implying.

That's the problem with us - we seem to spend ages working on a deal and then QPR jump in and sort it out at their end in 48 hours. They are going to have to speed up if they want several more players in this window. Well, we could go their route and hang around waiting for other clubs to strike deals for players you might fancy, match their offers, and then offer inflated wages to hopefully turn the agents head. Frankly though, I think I prefer our less cunty, more thoughtful route.

Think most of us knew this to be the case and fair play to us getting the groundwork in early; still a right kick in the knackers though.

Doesn't scan. Needs some extra bits to replace 'weekend comes, my cycle hums' etc.

"I've just heard" Would it kill you to give us a little more depth to this whisper from the ether.

"The next few hours will resolve this issue and may bring hope and joy in Boedo and much annoyance in Newcastle. With 4 million euros the final offer, what will be the outcome?"

"On Saturday, in a draw away to Norwich 0-0, Coloccini was whistled and booed by the fans of his team"

I support our clubs stance... But we're really not like.

This lad any good then? Worth us popping in a cheeky bid?

How does he know this? Either Kruls dispicable agent is feeding him lines, or Mr Fraser is phoning up clubs all over Europe going 'Interested in Krul?', "Si", 'Interested in Krul?', "Oui Monsieur", 'Interested in Krul?', "Ohhh, lubberly jubberly"... Or it's bullshit. I vote bullshit. Eh? He says where it's from. And where did they get it from, eh?!? EH!?!?! It's aaaaaaaahll LIES. LIIIIIIES!!!!!!

What does he say? It's disappointing as he looked the number one target, Newcastle need bodies, if he goes elsewhere so be it, but how someone could actually go to qpr instead of Newcastle!?! ...maybe I'm biased. Then talks about How great Colo is.

I haven't seen many, if any, offended that he's just going for the money. It's that he is going to Queens Park Rangers (for the money) that is offensive. If someone from L1, or the Eredivise moved to Airbus UK (for the money) rather than the Premiership, they'd get the same reaction. But if it amuses you.....

Chin up soldier.

Ah, I just couldn't imagine it not being there. Yes, the circus of money, agents, corruption, agents, FIFA and the FA is beyond tiring... But as you say, its more than just a great game; It's an extension of the city, an outward expression of us as a region and there's still plenty to be proud of and show pride in through our support.

Makes pretty grim reading that. The text of the report suggests that that was in the Championship. The year before that you were 63rd, which would have been about a 40Kpw average. What text? I think the figures are from the 2010/11 season, when we were back up. Swiss Ramble (http://swissramble.blogspot.nl/2012/03/newcastle-united-life-in-northern-town.html) has roughly the same figures: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-GD4P0rhmO2w/T2hAJj3JJmI/AAAAAAAAFcg/sXBXt61En_Q/s400/23%2BNewcastle%2BWages%2BLeague.jpg That's because that's from the 2009-10 season as well. f*** me, unbelievable. Aye, amended my post as just noticed the note at the bottom. I seriously doubt it is currently much lower though, especially with Ba gone. Will be interesting to see the nest set of accounts with regards to this. Actually, is that not just the ones with a star next to them? I'm confusing myself now.. Yup that got me. Flipping stars. But yeah, your first figures were from our Championship season. The first season back we hardly brought in any stars either tbf (not sure how much we contributed to HBA loan wages). Would love to know what our average is now.

Yup was from the 2009-10 season. "the most recent available data at the compilation cut-off date for the other football leagues, most recently from the 2009-10 season. This report does not contain any football (soccer) data from the 2010-11 season because it was not available to us"

Reckon old sloppychops simply gives an incredibly comfortable blow job. There is simply no other explanation.

Well, when you put it like that I'm inclined to agree. Have to admit to being quite honoured to be the quickest stepping stone in football history (again*). * Hai Modric
