Apart from this deal sounding like complete bollocks, has Ashley done that sort of thing regularly enough to be his 'stamp'?

We missed out on Gervinho, Maiga & De Jong and they've not worked out. I'm keeping faith too. Faith that our scouts first choices are shockingly bad? Actually doesn't this simply come down to Pardew. Those who come under his wing do well. Those who miss out on his coaching inevitably fail.

If it doesn't appear to follow a logical path, then the right path could be that the actions may be unrelated.

Well, that would put a downer on things.

No, apparently according to many on here, the fault lies elsewhere, Pardews a fab manager - "the young Fergie" - and we should just accept what we're given (no relation to Shay) Someone called him "The young Fergie"? Really? Well, I like the sound of that. Here's hoping.

I don't know him, as a player, as a man, as a human shaped speck on this vast rock we call Earth. I don't know his mind, or what he holds deep inside his heart. But fuck him. Fuck him, and everything he stands for.

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.
