so newcastle have denied the martins rumour

Even im beggining to think we are getting no-one else in

calm down. its probably not true

Several deals getting worked on. Michael Johnson not ruled out

maybe newcastle have told sky to keep the johnson deal quiet. maybe? no

email confirmation of the deal needs to be in by 5pm still

we have always tried to keep our deals quiet. something Ashley hinted at in his email. why should today be any different. We prob wont hear anything till a deal is just about done

yeah thats true

The 10m he quoted as saying was available might have been a guess-timate based on player sales. I'd like it to mean there's 18m too, but it's not necessarily so. Didnt Kinnear say that he had £10 plus anything that came in from sales?

Money from the Given sale used to pay the next installment to Deportivo? That is if that rumour is true. ah right. seems pretty ridiculous that we cant play the lad till the window passes. really pointless paying £6m for him in the first place. its probably Kinnear not liking the guy. Id like to see him get a proper chance. Could have some much needed goals in him. If Martins aint fit for tomorrow. Xisco could be really useful

what has the window got to do with Xisco playing or not?

really hope Oba is fit. even if its only on the bench

I hope not. Turned on Talksport half way through them talking about Wigan, and I think I heard them say they wondered how he will play today with Newcastle 'sniffing around'. How many Taylors do Wigan have?, one in their squad here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/7856378.stm not in squad

Kinnear has already said Butt will play and will be captain

thats why we are in the shit, coz we signed the players we did and not what we needed

not seen it mentioned yet leading the singing pre-match once again will be opera singer Graeme Danby, who takes to the field at 1.20pm

def no Martins then?

yeah i was on a train on one of my rare weekends off thats why i know it was a friday

Duff signed on a fri

maybe Kinnear has just been taking the piss out of the media all along with all the bollocks he talks

fuckin hell a bolton fans is slagging us. there are even funny times in a relegation battle

you know what. it might not even be our only midfield signing. no-one knows. this came out the blue. lets be positive

fuckin hell. Some people were moaning we were signing no-one now the signing we look to make isnt good enough. so Nolan is better than no-one. grow up ffs. Ive never been so worried about going down we need players who will fight, Making comments like just another smith etc is so Childish and pointless

some people just cant do anything but moan lets give the guy a fuckin chance

all the miserable people moaning about this should realise we are fighting relegation and not going for europe. lets get safe and retain premiership status before trying to get foreign stars in
