Can't argue with that, the fact that he turned down a lifetime of adoration and hero-worship is what makes it even harder to take. Ask Alan Shearer whether wearing the number 9 for NUFC means more than any amount of trophies and any amount of money. The same Alan Shearer who was prepared to move to Liverpool too? When? Iirc Liverpool bid £5 million for him, Bobby thought it was a cracking deal, but Freddy vetoed it. I know for a fact (family friends with the late Jack Hixon) that the offer was £3m, highest earner at LFC and he was desperate to go. Both were prepared to sell and then Freddy changed his mind.

cud be the most expensive 35 million ever, if it goes tits up. And not unthinkable CP, either. The lads a talent but there are still many question marks over him and he's a huge gamble at £35m. ok agreed. my point i made badly was if it goes tits up for us that 35 million will look a bit shit. True too. See it both ways.

Agree with this but I feel there's a lot more to this deal than meets the eye.

I doubt it very much.

I'd be surprised if he didn't tbh.

Will he shite - he'll harp on about 'if a player wants to go then a club has no choice...................etc etc'. The company line. PR exercise all over it today. Hope AC is honest about it at his presser. Well AC will tow the line as well won't he? He can hardly arrive at Liverpool for a massive fee and say he didn't really want to go there. He'll have been made to sign some form of confidentiality agreement with NUFC anyhow would be my guess. The truth will out though.

Just like a puppet on a string.............................

He's actually a player who is decent and would be very good for us. Think he's improved since he left. The worrying thing is that we are going after a left winger when we desperately need a decent striker now Carroll has gone. It seems the club have every faith in the forwards we have left. He's a whiny cunt - I'm sure 'the group' would love the sulky little cunt. He's not worth £12m.

I wouldn't want the cunt back, we don't need a left sided midfielder and nor is he worth £15m.

Why the fuck would we spank 33% of our record recieved fee on a moody little fuckwit we don't need? Absolute joke of a bid.

Yep.

£10m bid rejected. Fucking PR exercise.

Ridiculous.

Eidur to Fulham.

10%.

Pleased with this signing.

Unlike King Kev the fromer glazier does not have mega bucks in the bank to do so. Nor Morals. He took the job before Chris Hughton was fired ffs. He was absolutely desperate and signed on to take it in whichever way Ashley wanted him to. A yes man if ever I've seen one ffs.

Nope.

Even better - why doesn't he report without Mike Ashley feeding him his fucking lines.

Yep - should be up for an Oscar because he performed to the script perfectly. Director: Mike Ashley Lead Actor: David Craig Extra: Andy Carroll/His Agent

In one.
