Hope they only paid the one agent fee for Jon Harley...
-
Anita... Vernon Anita... Leave the rest up to others

Was well impressed with the look of Lille's new 50,000 seater stadium... I wonder if it will be a game changer for Lille's future... Always got the impression they got quite small crowds even when winning the double...
-
Was on TalkSport this morning... Never the brightest bulb but seems quite professional... Let's hope he's learnt to show Bale & Lennon on to their weaker feet rather than their stronger as he has done in the past...
-
Both Robbie Earle and Shaka Hislop said on the ESPN Press-Pass tonight the best bit of business NUFC have done this summer is signing Ba to a new long term contract... Have i missed something?...
-
Wasn't at the talk-in myself to judge the context of the comment but it was what AP said and knowing MA/DL and the reaction from LFC from our bid it wouldn't surprise me... And if we do pride ourselves focusing on the value of a player I'd certainly wouldn't be paying much more than £7m baring in mind Cisse cost £8m albeit a few years older... Would be interesting who people would prefer if we could only buy one more player for £7m... Debuchy or Carroll... it was a joke. £35m was the joke...
-
That would be my choice...

Can't see us upping our original bid from £7m to £12m... And against the idea personally of him coming back...

You sound like them Two things: He had service (which he wont get) and we fell apart that game, even Alan Smith upfront would have put one past us. Also I think Shola off the bench is a better option than him, at half the price. He still played well in that game, which was my point. He's far from useless. Saha's a better player than Shola, but considering the price comparison there's not much in it for value. My point wasn't necessarily that he's better/worse than Shola, more that we are one squad striker light for this season and there's worse players for that role - not that I'd go and buy him, but if he was presented to me as 3rd/4th choice for our squad I wouldn't weep. I don't think I sound like them, I despise them just as much as the next person on here, but just as they are prone to silly hyperbole when rubbishing our signings, we can be too. As a football fan, Saha isn't a poor player. He has a poor injury record and will likely be overpriced in terms of wages, but he's not the joke signing that a lot of people on here want him to be just to have another stick to bash the Mackems with. We've already got a lot anyway. I'm not saying they've got one over us, nor does the signing make them any better than mid-table wasters, but call a spade a spade - he's not a bad striker. This... If they get the finer details of the deal right then it's a good short-term deal for them...

Aren't you forgetting the obvious one...
-
Didn't AP himself say we only bid £7m?... Terrible journalism...
-
Saha getting the SSN yellow ticker tape treatment now... Advanced discussions...
-
A couple of different places on Twitter were claiming it so nothing concrete... AP normally has his late morning so should get an indication then of how things will unfold...
-
Talk of a press conference 2pm... Not sure if it will be the usual Pre-game conference or to announce Anita signing... Guessing the later due to the time...
-
Maybe MA wants to save a further £70k and get him in 2wks time...
-
Wrong thread surely...
-
Just landed... Bit naff looking but as long as it works...
-
He'll be used as in a few positions, like a lot of the squad. That's my concern as I feel judging by his fathers comments he perhaps wants a more defined role in the team which may go against us signing him...
-
Not sure if posted since Sunday but a good listen if not... Maybe the plan is Anita LB and Santon RB... Either that or he'll rotate with Jonas... http://www.talksport.co.uk/radio/call-collymore/120812/van-der-kraan-newcastle-fans-should-be-excited-anitas-arrival-178495

Agger has said he wants to stay...
-
Only problem to your plan is he's got 3 year left on his contract not 12month...
-
Yep... It's not NUFC related but it was radio gold!
-
If we fail to get Debuchy is the plan to fill the RB position externally or internally for a start whilst trying to clarify if Santon is to remain on the left due to quotes from the player saying otherwise... I'll try and pipe up and ask that I was at the Whitley Bay FC talk in May 2011 and you had to write your questions and they picked the best ones...so i'm not too hopeful mind It's a fair question so i don't see why not... Good luck... Any chance of reposting the events of evening when you return tonight?...

From 7, but not sure there are many/any tickets left. Cheers, is it not on the radio anywhere? No
