Sam said 3 weeks after Sampdoria. I reckon we'll see him at Boro.

Just hoyed that from "Quotes of the Week" on BBC. I've been informed it was a big interview in The Sun.

"He's a crafty old devil." Sam Allardyce after Sir Alex Ferguson tipped Newcastle to finish in the top four this season. Nice one, Alex

Turned down Celtic

West Brom have had an offer accepted for Brunt

Shearer Nah, it's Martins.

Out of 33 players, 1 is a NUFC player. We must have played shit at the weekend...

This. How anyone can "enjoy" Derby Day is ridiculous. Give me a home game with Birmingham anyday. 1-5

I've seen the first post edited on a number of times. Certainly not worth a Maybe , at a push. It just made me laugh cos everyone after that is going 'good news!' etc as though you knew where he was going a week ago. () Just read through, it does look like that. status granted

Aye, fantastic to sell our best striker for 7mill less than we paid You should be a manager tbh. Since when has what a club paid for a player ever determined how much he is actually worth on the transfer market? I thought you were meant to be good with numbers and all that stuff. How do we know what he is worth though? For all we know he could return better than he was pre injury. You just can't say. Therefore to sell Englands best finisher for just over half what we paid less than two years ago, considering he is in his peak years as a striker, would be ridiculous.

Eh? First post always gets edited with the latest news in a thread.

Avatar material tbh Beats the one of Zog from a while back (when he was like that watching Owen in training)

.cock GEORDIE striker Andy Carroll has joined Championship side Preston North End on a loan deal until January. The 18-year-old striker has linked-up with Paul Simpson's men and could make his debut in their League Cup tie against Morecambe at Deepdale on Tuesday night. Big Andy burst onto the scene last season after a string of impressive displays and goals for United's Reserves and Juniors. The Gateshead-born forward made his senior debut against Palermo in November and has been tipped by many to become a star of the future on Tyneside.

www.pnefc.co.uk Preston North End have secured the signature of Newcastle United prospect Andy Carroll on a six-month loan deal. The 18-year-old has been chased by a number of clubs over the summer break but former North End favourite Sam Allardyce did a favour to one of his former clubs by allowing the 6'4 striker to move to Deepdale. Carroll has been described as a 'young Duncan Ferguson' by Newcastle United fans, he's made seven substitute appearances for the Magpies, making his debut in the UEFA Cup at home to Palermo. The rookie striker will take the No.21 shirt at Deepdale and will go straight into the squad for tonight's match at home to Morecambe.

If he doesn't jog to the training ground he's not committed enough tbh.

Very underrated player.

They'll undeservedly stay up IMO.

We've got more chance of signing Gary Neville tbh. We always say this but i'm talking stupid money here. 20m ish Wouldn't buy his laces. What about Eboue. He might be available considering they've just replaced him with whatshisface. Can't think of anyone else in the premiership. Apart from Danny Mills. Who is shite. Eboue would be quality.

Ice Creams??!!!!!!! OMGZZZ they'll get fat. The Bull could become The Pig.

Good signing for that price.
