I'd actually say Domi, Distin and especially Bernard were very good for us.

Martins will stay number 9. Squad numbers only usually change when a player leaves.

Problem is nobody in the Championship wants him. The highest he'll go in England is League 1. Eredivisie will be much better for him playing against teams like AZ, PSV and Ajax. Also your last piont is rather silly that he should be kept in England so the fans can watch and prople can post on this board about him.

Will Krul be starting for the Dutch on Sunday?

Tuncay has never impressed me. He seems to be very much a highlight reel player and you have to question if he is so good why is he playing in the Turkish league at 25.

Link According to reports in the Dutch press, Roda JC are hoping to sign Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul on loan for next season. The former ADO Den Haag keeper has only played once for The Magpies, impressing in a Uefa Cup win over Palermo in November. Krul has already admitted he will be looking to leave St James' Park on loan next season in order to further his first team experience. Now Limburgs Dagblad has reported that Roda JC hope to be first in line should Sam Allardyce give the green light for the 19-year-old to leave. Krul is currently in his homeland preparing for the upcoming European Under 21 Championship after being included in Holland's squad.

Yep, only top 3 get in CL. Bayern finished 4th. Already signalled their intent though by buying Ribery and Toni.

Rings of a club with principal if you ask me.

They shouldn't pay Barton anything. Man City have bent over backward to accomadate him over the last few years, by all rights his career should have been finished when he stubbed the cigar in the other kids eye. I'm looking forward to seeing Barton at Newcastle but he is fucking Man City over good and proper.

I'd imagine atleast £10m. Although I don't think he is available as Bayern won't be selling any of their big players as they want to get back in the CL next year.

Trabelsi was fucking shit at Man City.

Would have been two months ago, but if Manchester City don't complete their takeover, Richards is well within our grasp if we wanted him. No, he is not. He will cost at LEAST £15m and then he will only go to one of the big 4. Billionaire owner Ambitious and highly regarded manager renowned by top players across Europe. Chance to play in front of 52,000 fans a week Chance to play in a team featuring one of the best striker quartets in Europe. Club on the up Club familiar with regular European football Club that can afford to spend £15 million on a full back Club that can guarantee forst team football Someone please tell me why there is no chance? Billionaire owner but we don't know how much of a budget Allardyce will be given. He is certainly not an Abramovich and it would stun me if we spent that much on full bakc even with Ashley. Club familiar but not in Europeon football and we'll see if we are truly a club on the up when we actually play a some competitive matches under Allardyce.

what website is that? Newsnow.

On that piont can we make a sticky announcing they are out 14th of June and telling people not to post them. As their have been a few threads so far and I imagine they'll be a few more as well, would just be easier imo.

He left the club before Sam arrived. The deal for Luque to go on loan was signed before Glenn was sacked and Luque wasn't one of the people who stayed around to talk to Sam after the season had ended.

I don't know the situation but Lalas said the other day omn soccernet (I think) he can go and play as long as they don't clash with playoff games. He basically said if they clash with playoff games at the end of the season then LA will just have to suffer the consequences as those games are too important to release him for.

Was on Kevin Nolan's BBC column earlier this year that although they get fined it is only a very small amount, only £100 at most and all the money then went to charity.

Don't see any problem with him staying on as Chairman.

Doubt it. Viduka has agreed to join but not back from Oz for another week at the earliest.

Not signing until Thursday according to SSN. Just left SJP and will talk to his family but he expects to be back on Thursday to sign.

SSN say he has agreed to join.

While it had come to an agreement with Dortmund for a few weeks, David Rozehnal finally should not rejoin the German club. "The transfer will not be done", declared yesterday Hans joachim Watzke, general director of the Borussia, to the newspaper Westfälische Rundschau. To explain this position turnaround, the German leaders invoke the higher bid of Newcastle United, very interested by the Czech defender of the PSG, club with which the Magpies very often did matter (transfers of David Ginola, Didier Domi or again Sylvain Distin) the latter years. The English trainer Sam Allardyce thus attended Wales Czech Republic, Saturday to Cardiff. The negotiations would turn henceforth around 5 million Euros, this that would allow the German Holy Paris to raise a little more its cash registers. "This is Paris that will take the final decision, but Newcastle did not say his last word", assured the one of the representatives of the player, Viktor Kolar. That the free translation, if anyone can do better feel free.

I think your missing the piont. Why should Fred put up his money when he is weeks away from being ousted all together, you have to remember this is a business and it makes no business sense for Fred to spend £5m when he is about to leave. It would be the equivalant of Branson buying a whole fleet of Boeing's for Virgin just before he is about to sell up. Fact is while he may have promised funds the situation has now changed and those funds are not available. We have to wait for the takeover to be completed before we can do any real spending. Stozo, you are missing the point... It's Newcastle's money not Freddy's.... Very debatable how much money Newcastle still have. 5th highest debt in the league and several consecutive financial losses.
