If Best turned down the move to Celtic, does that mean we accepted the loan bid?

Douglas confirming that Best is in talks with Celtic.

The Best thing is exploding over Twitter.

It's definitely not acceptable not signing a CB. But then again, I think most of us probably accepted it. Still seems like economic madness risking millions in revenue in terms of league position based on a couple of hundred grand, but that's NUFC for you.

It seems insane in the long run to risk not signing him. Say we don't get him, and Coloccini takes a long-term injury (God forbid). Then Perch is in there for long-term. The loss of points associated with that will result in lower league places, which means we'll get less revenue and it'll probably cost us more than the £700k in the first place. Where's the sense in that?

Unacceptable. No other word for it. Yes, it's great having Cisse, but as Cisse, Sow and Ba just showed at ACN, it's no good having a lethal strikeforce if your defence is decimated. See 4-2 at Norwich for proof.

We should bid an extra 750k, seriously.

WTF is that all about?

Where have you heard that? Sky Sports on Twitter.

Watford have accepted a Wigan bid, not ours.

We'll sell Forster. Can't see anyone coming in.

I don't think Abeid will play, but I think he should.

This. He was the victim of terrible injuries, always tried hard but clearly wasn't good enough. He'll probably do extremely well in lower leagues. And it's easy to resent him for picking up those kinda wages, but we gave them to him. It's our own fault.

And that Shola gets to start another game is a disgrace after last week.

No Colo = very tough match.

Spurs fans lapping every word up. Poor 'Arry.

Can you imagine what would happen if Ashley did that

I'm actually not convinced. I've seen far more blatant shows of aggression go unpunished.

Read something interesting on Twitter that people aren't allowed, under UK law, to post opinions about the trial. Only facts. And that includes on Twitter. Wouldn't want anything negative to come out about Arr 'Arry now, would we?

Independent running a review claiming that Santon unquestionably should have been sent off for the penalty, and we should have lost by more.

Just one of those bad days lads. Fulham deserved it in the end, since we couldn't respond in the second half. Dust off, move on. Hope we learn.

Brighton 341 - 0 Newcastle Shola O.G. x 341 Ben Arfa subbed off after 10 minutes for Shola being so bad. [/kneejerk overreaction]

They've scored just under 25% of their goals at home this season in the last 45 minutes.

Hopefully we'll get a new defender in after all.

Shola makes me so angry.
