    Didn't even last a day. Why did we ever bother to discuss the merits of having him over Bent...
  2. Does Ebay sell those iron-on crests? Reckon you can fix one on a Wonga-less, better quality shirt.

    Other clubs' transfers

    Tbf he could be in the process of holding it up.
  4. He's found a club where his style fits in. Good for him.

    Don't think so much, he's good enough so just get him in. Or we will just dilly-dally, asked to get kept in loop and end up having no one but Shola as backup in September. A bird in hand is worth two in the bush.
  6. Kinnear probably thinks he's Mario Gomez.
  7. I rather he go to a Championship team on loan, then assess him as the season goes. At his age, a League 1 season isn't going to improve him.
  8. His sitting on the bench deprived him of even reserve matches last season. In the end, he didn't even play much in the 1st team. If we seriously want to develop him, he has to go on loan.

    Wrong thread. http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,94291.0.html
  10. Give him a Championship loan til January and see how he gets on from there. Okie, on the phone to Joe right away!

    Darren Bent

    It's interesting whether there's any stats on this. Williamson for all his height (6'4"!) is weak as piss and we have seen relative midgets get the better of him in the air. I suspect it's not as simple as it seems.
  12. Go on loan and get plenty of match experience, no brainer really.

    Better than Shola? I think this guy is better than Cisse almost personally. He's a very hardworking and intelligent player, and £5m for a striker that can play at this level for another 2-3 years is very good I think. If we sign him I'd be very happy. We still need a winger though to compliment Barfa on the other side and a new CB to compete/replace Saylor. Give him a year and he'll be as s*** as Shola. Right, I can say this much I rather spunk £5m on this guy than £5m on Bent. Personally feel he is a better fit for the team than Bent. Direct, hardworking, pacy, width - attributes that we could do with.
  15. Hope to see those young players Kemen Good.
  16. Kinnear's promise of a signing before Friday made good. Happy holidays ahead.

    Feels weird going after 29 yo strikers after all these years.

    Eight. Technically speaking you can't have more than 17 non-HG players. HG players is not a requirement; you just get to register fewer players. You can play your U-21 players as they don't count towards the quota though. Agree with you we need some quality HG players in the squad.
  21. Doesn't look bad to me. I'll just pretend it's Nintendo's logo if I'm a fan. Nice colours combination too. Works well.

    No one knows as of now. Guess we have to wait til end of August to have a clearer idea of any policy changes.
  23. From the same site who brought us the Rooney bid news? I'll say yes.
