Apparently not. No other journalist / twatter is carrying it.

Someone posted it on nufc blog (unreliable i know) but it's defo the same bloke. It supposed to be an algerian, cant get on the comments on nufc blog atm for some reason so not sure whats been said since. Yo yo Cooper, give us the news. Link us up boyo.

Just got two texts off different people within 5 seconds of eachother, first reading that Ben Arfa was on his way to Liverpool, next read that the HBA deal to Newcastle was done and dusted. Oh my, I feel like that iron jawed Brian Swanson with the latest scoops off SSN.

http://media.dvdtown.com/images/displayimage.php?id=5642 Oh God, not another new picture!

Coopers' silence is speaking volumes.

It looks more like him than HBA. And the right one isn't his f***ing manager because he's listening to an iPod! The very same iPod in yet another picture! It's all adding up now!!!

Oh come on it clearly is, even the hoody tassles are at the same length. The same length Johnson293! You just can't argue with those kind of cold hard facts!

I see you lurking there Cooper! COOOOOOOOPER!!!!!

But where oh where did this picture come from? I need to know! New thread damnit! The mystery must be solved!

Haha so where is this new pic from? Another twist in the tale!

Well as usual you're wrong. Bassong has potential and is showing that he will go on to fulfil this, whereas Bramble showed potential but now plays for Sunderland.

Well done, have a star.

wtf??? Good signing for them, Kanu is a very good young Nigerian striker with lots of potential. Whole career ahead of him. Yes indeed.

I always get the impression that you once read about humour in a book somewhere and try to emulate it where possible. You're like Death from the Discworld books.

I don't really care who it is to be honest, but it's clearly a photo from today and the bloke in the taxi photo and in the background behind Hughton are the same person. No debate about it. This is a pretty exciting deal and I'm confident it's in the bag but if it doesn't then I won't be anywhere near as bothered as I would have been before the 6-0 spanking of Villa.

iPod.. the very same iPod in the taxi photo

So do the shoes.. because it's him.

To what, 'random picture of a French football agent possibly confirmed - .com'?

That Isaac lad also reckons that a future fee has been agreed, the only thing needed now is for wages to be discussed - my only knowledge of contract negotiations is from FM so I don't really know how this would work with a loan. To be honest I believe this IsaacJLJ, was spot on with Tiote and hasn't given any reason not to be believed... yet.

Pretty sure that Everton are playing Villa next week.

He looked pretty poor in pre-season and last week.. but then again it is only pre-season and one game against Man Utd. He seems like an athletic player with some pace which is what we require from the back and through the middle.

I noticed a thread similar to this on another forum a few months ago. What's interesting about this one is that it is comfortably becoming very much Hughtons' team, with the players that he has bought and the way that he has utilised existing ones. So... STARTING XI Harper - Academy product Perch - Undisclosed (rumoured 1.5m) Williamson - Undisclosed (rumoured 1m) Coloccini - 9.1m Enrique - 6m Routledge - Undisclosed (rumoured 1m) Smith - 6m Barton - 5.8m Gutierrez - Free transfer (Will use compensation fee - approx 5m?) Nolan - 4m Andy Carroll - Academy product SUBS USED Ameobi - Academy product Xisco - 5.7m Ryan Taylor - Part-exchange for N'Zogbia So.. with these all being rough fees, the total transfer fee cost of our starting XI is approximately 45.1m. Hughton has spent approximately 3.5m of that overall total, with Allardyce spending 11.8, Keegan spending 19.8 (Or Wise, whoever), Kinnear spending 4m and 3 players coming through the Academy. Rumoured fees taken from nufc.com, corrections where necessary.

You could hear Nolan shouting at him at one point to get in position during a throw-in. Lovely through ball, good eye for the pass.

Isn't Waddle a mackem?

http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/players/player=291329/profile.html Everything you need to know about the player, the stats are a decent read aswell. 181 passes in 3 games in the World Cup with a 76% pass completion rate. Tasty.
