It was leaked to the press plenty of times that we wanted to give him a new contract in the past but he has never signed, and it certainly looks as if we dont want to offer him a deal now (unsurprisingly given his appalling attitude): 11th Jan 2014 http://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2014/hatem-ben-arfa-to-sit-down-for-contract-talks/ Hatem Ben Arfa to sit down for contract talks. Newcastle winger Hatem Ben Arfa will sit down for contract talks with his club next week say France Football. The midfielder has constantly been linked with other clubs over the last few years, but is now struggling to pin down a regular first team spot with Newcastle in recent weeks. Nevertheless, his talent is there for all to see and he will be a big capture for the club if he signs a new deal. This news represents a step in the right direction for Newcastle fans as currently the Frenchman’s contract is due to expire at the end of next season, meaning that Newcastle could be forced to sell him in the summer if he does not sign a new deal. We shall keep you posted about how these talks go. More undoubtedly to follow. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2284104/Newcastle-keen-sign-Hatem-Ben-Arfa-long-term-deal-Liverpool-interest.html John Drayton PUBLISHED: 10:16, 25 February 2013 Newcastle will attempt to fight off interest from Liverpool for Hatem Ben Arfa by offering their French star a new contract, according to reports. The 25-year-old has been injured for large parts of the 2012-13 season but Alan Pardew is keen to see him spend his best years at St James' Park. http://www.thejournal.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-keen-re-open-hatem-5873155 10 Sep 2013 09:05 Newcastle United are ready to re-open contract talks with Hatem Ben Arfa as they bid to tie down the mercurial forward to a long-term deal Newcastle United are ready to re-open contract talks with Hatem Ben Arfa as they bid to tie down the mercurial forward to a long-term deal. United first approached Ben Arfa’s representatives back in July, but the France international wanted to concentrate on his football and getting back to full fitness after an injury-plagued season. To put another slant on it, he is quite happy waddling around putting no effort in while earning Premier League wages for another year, before leaving on a free, thereby maximising his wages in Greece / Turkey or wherever he will inevitably end up. One more contract should allow him to see out his career continuing to be a fat lazy b****** somewhere else, while still earning loads of money. On the other hand, if he heads to one of those backwaters now, he wont get paid anywhere near as much, and will miss a year of PL money. Hello Alan or Woodman or Blob.

I'm a tactically inept cunt who refuses to change my archaic footballing philosophy because I'm an intolerable narcissist.

Does this......does this make us the Ultras?

How did he do in Germany last season?

Pardewed within 7 months while playing as a second choice wing-back understudy to Ryan Taylor.

That's the one Unreal. My favourite of the tournament Maybe I'm missing something but I don't think she's that fit. That Colombian one with Kevin Kilbane however...........

Cuntosaurus Rex

He's even got Shola's shirt on. For luck.

This is crazy!

Yes but it is all balanced out by the fact that when they hit around 35 they all transform into hippocrocapigs overnight. Much like Russian women.

I know this is a really stupid thing to say, but we could probably do a better job if we picked 20 people off here to run the club Not stupid at all. We've got the best interests of the club and the supporters at heart so we would definitely do a better job than this shower of crap. Day 1 would end with Pardew getting his P45 for a start and that would improve our outlook no end.

Are they mates now?

What happened to Paddy Van Aanholt?

It looks like it's just been picked up off the floor of a Sports Direct store and handed to him to put on.

As in, hit them over the head with a sign?

Might have guessed it would have God in it somewhere.

From surnamedb.com...... Last name: Pardew This interesting name with variant spelling Pardoe, Pardew, Perdue and Pardey is a good example of the medieval English liking for creating a surname form a nickname. In this instance, the nickname comes from a favourite oath, in Old French "Par Dieu", meaning "by God". There are a number of similar surnames in the modern idiom, such as "Godsafe", "Purefoy" (Par ma foi). 'Pardee' was the common form of the oath in the Middle Ages as in Chaucer's 'Quote'. The Coat of Arms most associated with the family has the blazon of a silver shield, on a chevron embattled counter embattled between three castles sable, as many bombs of the field fired proper, a chief azure. The crest being a silver tower. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Richard Parde, who was a witness, which was dated 1228, in the Feet of Fines Roll, Suffolk, during the reign of King Henry 111, known as 'The Frenchman', 1216 - 1272. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

What a load of shit. If my bro was dying nee fucker would stop me going to see him. Horrific load of lies that.

Undoubtedly.

I can't take his bullshit for another season, I really can't.

Just bet on Shola to score. Easy money.

Cheers Al but no thanks. When the job comes along where I'll need to know how to lie, squirm and be as much use as a dump in a punch bowl then the phone won't stop ringing mate. To be honest they are the attributes required for career advancement in pretty much any job I've been in.

Bunkum it is then. Mind, that suggests he either can get on with Pardew and thinks he has a chance to play, or he genuinely can't be arsed any more. Hope to f*** it's the former. I think he's hoping Trashley bins Pardew next season and the next fella actually has a clue and gives him a new contract.

We've already done our business for next seaso imo (incomings anyway). The rest is just flannel.
