  1. Nasty shock of Martins' buyout clause puts Allardyce revolution on back foot

     

    The Newcastle manager is unhappy that both the Nigerian and Michael Owen can leave for a set fee, reports Jason Burt

    Sam Allardyce faces the prospect of losing both of Newcastle United's first-choice strikers before the start of next season after it emerged that Obafemi Martins, like Michael Owen, has a buyout clause in his contract at St James' Park.

     

    The existence of the agreement in Martins' contract - the Nigerian is available to any club willing to pay £13m for his services - has infuriated Allardyce, who was unaware of the clause when he moved to the North-east. That anger has been heightened by the fact that it has become public knowledge that Owen can leave if a bid of £9m is lodged for the England forward, following Newcastle's failure to qualify for Europe next season.

     

    Newcastle do not know whether or not Owen wants to stay but are acutely aware that Manchester United and Arsenal - should they sell Thierry Henry to Barcelona - may well come calling before the transfer window closes. Newcastle also fear that the indications they have so far received from Owen would suggest that he wants to leave.

    If he is so pissed off that the Owen clause went public, Who the hell told the media about Martins' clause. They will be in the s*** whoever it is.

     

    The club might have leaked this if they want rid. As somebody has said £13m isn't bad for Martins (who Allardyce may not want anyway).

     

    Good thinking 99.

  3. The fucking cheek of it, fucking loyalty bonus?!? Don't get me started on the Dabo shite, but the idea that a player who asks for and gets a buyout clause in his contract deserves a loyalty bonus when someone activates it!??! For. Fucks. Sake.  :idiot2: :tickedoff:

     

    I can't wait till all this over and I can turn me back on this shite. :nope:

     

    :clap:

  4. From the Mirror

     

    "But Joey Barton's switch is in doubt after he demanded a £300,000 pay-off from Manchester City before signing a £17million Newcastle contract.

     

    Barton's deal at City includes a clause that sees him paid an extra sum over the length of the deal if he stays 'loyal'. And he reckons that because he did not ask for a transfer he should get the windfall."

     

     

    f*** he has some hide asking for that.

     

    Hes moving on because he belted the s*** out of his teammate.

     

    Another tosser on our books!

     

    Great  >:(

     

    Why just because he's asking for whats rightfully his?

     

    While under law it is his. He makes enough money as it is, and ethically he owes them a debt

  6. haha that comment by the 10 year old is brilliant.

     

    "we could buy Carles Puyol but he might not come because he might not come to a rainy place" hehe

     

    Yet in the same paragraph he is sure Kaka, Messi, Fabregas etc will come.

     

    Which smartass sent that in?

  7. I think I would rather us go for the proven MGP who I reckon would cost a lot less. Will never be as good as the likes of Ronaldo but is a hell of a lot less risk and is proven to be a very good player in the league.

     

    Good call, he would kick ass. Need some flair in this team. He would be a reliable Robert

  8. I would prefer we got some tried and tested players tbh, in the past these young players who have potential have never worked out here.

  9. Remember the day when we signed him. Wasnt it the last day of the transfer window. How fucking dissapointing. That was probably one of my lowest points as a fan. He went alright but.
