Penny for MA & DL's thoughts right now...

@RBairner: beIN Sport reporting tonight that #Nancy left-back Massiado #Haidara will join #Newcastle. #nufc

Yes - they don't even need to recruit Carr on a bigger salary, they just watch who we bid for, then trump it. I don't want to blow my own trumpet but I did say in the summer I was very uncomfortable about the amount of media Carr was doing and the attention he was bringing to our scouting system... Also the way others at the club including AP were bragging about it almost... I felt then this would be the result of it all and it's proving to be so... I couldn't name a scout at another club and before Carr I wouldn't of known who our scouts were... Yeah, Dennis Wise certainly kept a low profile.... He wasn't a scout... He was taking recommendations off 2 agents... He done his scouting on youtube Post agent recommendations...

News bulletin on TS saying Roma are in for him but we want £15m...

Hope he doesn't start another game for us (ever)...

Had a break for a night but noticed that WHU are in for Heidara and Arsenal have doubled our bid for Thauvin... So Carr is basically doing everyone's scouting now and were paying for the privilege...

This...

Guillem Balague claiming its a smart move...

Walcott re-signed...

Walcott re-signed...

Pinch of salt required i know but... Listening to Remy it doesn't sound like our representatives sold the club to him...

@davidmcrossan: @SimonR83 No. Just says Haidara hasn't accepted salary offer. What was the question? And who/what 'just says'? Some guy asked whether there should have been a 'yet' in his original tweet but he said no he hasn't accepted our salary offer. Might be another transfer f*** up. This...

@davidmcrossan: @SimonR83 No. Just says Haidara hasn't accepted salary offer.

Think this quote is an old'ish one. It is an old one... But it still speaks volumes...

I'd hazard a guess that its gross...

This...

@CaulkinTheTimes: Pardew: "We need a player or 2 to make sure we keep our PL status." Colo meeting next week to "iron out issues ... hope he stays." #NUFC

Yeah, he's fair. Unlike the obnoxious Richard Keys for example on the same radio station Super Mac is on K&G tomorrow... Should be a cringeworthy listen...

Definitely. It really is a pivotal month in our survival really. Win on sat, confidence builds further and things look al lot rosier heading towards a crippled Villa. Couple of signings coming in would just go to cement things nicely too. A loss on sat and no success in the transfer market and we really are staring down the barrel of a gun. This...

Posted this earlier... @m_christenson: Newcastle offer €2.5m for Nancy def Massadio Haïdara, 20, who has prev been linked with Spurs, acc to reports. http://t.co/8RaKfbpT #NUFC
