Ba was all but gone

Honestly can't think of anyone who'd have it in them other than Yohan. Think he'd be fairly capable of dishing out a few bollockings (on and off the pitch) if necessary. Obviously Taylor gets a mention but I'd rule him out due to his...well...being a crock. But, Jonas will get it.

What are you suggesting, that the club has engineered this so that they can claim credit for keeping him, and avoid signing anyone? You mad. no not at all.

Can already hear pardew on the 1st feb. "Unfortunately we couldn't get those extra bodies over the line but at least we managed to keep hold of Colo, he's very important to this team, to this club, to the fans...they really love him up here. He's had some problems and it's affected his form, but we think we're past that now and him coming back to his usual self will be like a new signing because we was struggling"

Rather he was unhappy and we didn't get relegated personally. This. He's a professional footballer. He needs to get on for what he's paid to do. Easier said than done. Can anyone honestly say there is nothing in their personal life that would make you miss work if it went tits up? I know I cant. Only in a few certain jobs could you get compassionate leave. I'm hardly a millionaire and I get compassionate leave. If my family buggered off to Argentina, i'd have to leave like. This is what Colo is trying to do. Apart from his family apparently haven't buggered off.

no longer coco the clown then? sounds about right

how can we possibly have no choice tho?

I see a pitch invasion

going to the club to watch it, and to have a cry.

that team should be able to get something down there, it's the fact we've got no one on the bench who can change anything if it goes tits up that bothers me.

We have to dig our heels in like, at least till the summer. Imagine trying to bed someone into the prem alongside Williamson man.

just what we already read this morning then

Apparently. No way we'll lose out on cash IF he does go, need to dig our heels in, till the summer at least. He can't be captain tomorrow if he is playing. Nah, we need Pardew to come out in his pre match presser and confirm he's still his captain and that he's going nowhere. Taking the armband off him would only fuel the hysteria. Can see where your coming from, but I think it's fairly obviously true he wants out. To come out with it now isn't something a captain should be doing considering how much shit we're in already, don't think he deserves it if I'm honest. All this is assuming he has told the club he wants out, if it's not the case then yeah, him and Pardew need to squash the rumours and move on.

Aye, I'm just gutted that he's going but it doesn't matter that much seeing as he's staying so i'm not too fussed about him leaving.

tbf it's on the ronnie gill site as well, must be something in it, the amount of journo's all over it already man, mother fuckers.

Was it not just that they said the transfer request wasn't true? sounds about right tbh

not when unveil alliadierre and bong to the masses

fuck this shit, I believe Stephanie Finnon so pleased he's staying

center backs galore please thanks
