They havent confirmed we rejected 40m

I want Europe not money, we need to increase our standing as a club before we can do anything useful with that kind of money.

Agree with your last few posts in general.

I do have a crap feeling that this is Ashley playing games trying to show how much hes trying to hold out & that we've already accepted a 3rd bid. It shouldnt have taken them this long to release a statement

The fact its taken them a year to come out with a statement shows theyre clearly considering things though.

The speed Carrolls value's going up we'll have 100m + Torres by the end of the night

FFS Ashley tell them to fuck off

2nd bid rejected ?

Thats bizarre enough on its own. Let alone when you consider how quickly hes reached this valuation, quickest rise in value in history by far

40 mill is a bit silly like

Exactly, dont see what they could offer that we shouldnt be able to at this point. We should have a clear advantage really. Bizarre.

Dont know why anyone would doubt whether Ashley has accepted the bid. Ofcourse he has, its purely on Carroll.

Its fully down to Carroll at this point. Ashley will ofcourse be able to justify all of this due to the amount being offered, but theres more involved than that in terms of our position as a club & ability to spend this money well on replacements in that position.

We couldve made Europe this season man, got our clubs name back out there a bit more. Then used that to attract players of higher quality. Instead we'll have a load of money to waste on players who'll only come for massive wages/stepping stone or massively unproven risky strikers. This is completely moronic

Kev will talk sense into him, cmon lad

Nolans kidnapped Carroll to stop him going

Well there goes any excitement about this season

This'll be great for team spirit and all. Absolute joke.

Shut up man it's hardly Ashley's fault this. Yeah its not like he accepts the bids or anything No Llambias does that. Im sure hes completely uninvolved yeah

Shut up man it's hardly Ashley's fault this. Yeah its not like he accepts the bids or anything

Craig confirming it tits

Looks like hes gone then Fucking crap

Do not like.

As far as i can see, no one is claiming Carroll should be worth more than Villa. Not sure what you're getting worked up about. Oh its because a Newcastle player is being massively rated by another club & has a higher valuation in half a season than you got for "top goalscoring prem player in 5 decades Darren Bent" etc. Yeah unlucky.

Exactly. Theres more to it than simple numbers. Class strikers are far easier to spot for managers than other positions as its a simple game of numbers, if theyre good theyre putting the ball in the net & that will get them noticed. Its very hard to find a gem bigger sides than us wont have noticed. Either way we'd have to pay them a load & theyd likely see us as a stepping stone. The motivation levels for such a player & the effect he'd have on the mentality of other players are all involved in this also. Keeping Carroll is much better for us
