James

Deadline has passed for German league handing over registrations. So definitely not signing.

Ranger will probably turn up so late at the club who want to sign him that he will miss the transfer deadline.

Scott Parker

He could be one of those players with talent that haven't found a position yet. So in six years time he could be a central midfielder finally getting regular games.

The quote that he is looking forward to learning from Krul is telling.

I would argue that if we played Rossi, he would have done well, had some loyalty with Newcastle and then the next summer signed for us instead, becoming the great player he is today.

I imagine this is what Pardew is thinking: "Hmmm, no wedding ring. It's all good, I'll just shag his mom." Look at those smiles. No wonder Pardew wanted to sign him. aye, he must have a bonnie mam. I reckon Pardew shagged his Mum about 21 years ago

Made his international debut in the same game as Shane Ferguson did for his former international side.

Former Northampton Town, Bournemouth, Luton Town and York City goalkeeper dead at 37 with cancer. RIP

Chronicle article on him today. Has basically been told he has to get his arse out if he wants to save his career.

Done I am with all of this nonsense. Seriously, I bet by 8pm tonight if he hasn't signed people will be back to Mr negative.

I think you are over egging this a little, I don't see much difference between one player on the opposite side and two, although they will link up at times they essentially do different jobs so I can't see it being a major problem. Both players have played a lot of their careers on that side so it's not as if we are chucking them both into the unknown. For me it is just that extra touch that Jonas takes and Taylor takes to switch the ball on their right foot really slows our passing down and reduces the number of chances we create. Don't see why it will be different with Santon.

Really don't like the idea of two right footed players on the left but beggars can't be choosers. Hopefully Marveaux is up to it.

The website you've pasted the profile from has a news article about him signing. The forum you've posted the news to has a thread about him signing. It has also a search function, I can only assume you're new to the forum. So you may want to post a welcome message here: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,7134.0.html JJ Hooper does not come up with anything on search, and I don't have time to look at every post on all of the uber threads.

Thought he was just on trial and unconfirmed?

Don't worry, Freddy Shepherd has not heard of Yossi Benayoun and neither has Graeme.

Cool. What happenned to that Egyptian U20 that was supposed to be signing on a one year loan? Also Remy and Situ?

Who the fuck is Bolek?

What?? Two right footers on the left isn't good at all. See yesterday where moves kept breaking down on the left because of this.

If we sign santon as a left back, Jonas has to be out if the team.

Would be opposed to having a right footed left back with a right footed left winger in front on a regular basis as it reduces the fluidity of the side which really caused problems in the first half with our passing.

I saw him manipulating his hand, so wrist is doubtful.
