I agree. Been to all the big cities all over this country and never felt under threat day or night..... but 2 weeks in Liverpool.....!

Why can't we agree transfers before Jan. Liverpool have agreed deal for van dijk and Everton have agreed deal to sign cenk to sun. We don't even seem to start looking for players until the window opens.

Ashley said he would only sell to someone who could invest in the team the sort of money he can't put in.

There isn't a shred of hard evidence to support any of these fanciful transfer rumours yet everyone is completely caught up in the furore of these unsubstantiated rumours. It happens every transfer window and we know none of these rumours will come to fruition..

If the club doesn't bring in reinforcements in the first week of January fans should stop going. There's nothing like empty seats to focus Ashley's mind. No one will buy a club with falling attendances.

Maybe we need colback in midfield

Just missed out on the toon v heed.

Can't see us signing anyone in january unless we sell players and no one wanted any of our players in the summer.

5:0

Amanda would have been at Wwembley having a look at Rafa's Brazilian targets for January

I thought that if Gayle was offside so was Defoe when his shot brought about the corner that scored from.

Its a cause for concern that Rafa still has his family home over on mersyside.

It's odds on that part of the deal to sell Newcastle will include an agreement that Ashley gets free advertising in the ground for Sports Direct.

If Long had kicked to ball out of play by the time the foul came in, should it not have been an indirect free kick in the box?

Why would Amanda need £7bn. Surely £1bn would be more than enough to buy the club for around £300m and invest the remaining £700m in playing staff. Should get a canny team out of £700m surely?

No way was that a penalty. Long kicked the ball out of play so was not denied a goalscoring opportunity.

If its voted down by the other 14 clubs I wouldn't put it past the top six to breakaway and form a super league of 18 clubs with the following clubs likely to be invited to join: Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, spurs, Man U, man city, Barcelona, Real Madrid, Ath Madrid, Juve, Inter Milan, Roma, AC Milan, PSG, Marseille, Lyon, Byern M, Borrussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig, Ajax, PSV. I would imagine the TV money would drop the 14 like a hot brick and divert it all to the "super league" where there would be no relegation.

After all those chances missed this was inevitable. Just hope we don't concede again.

I don't understand why we are annoyed at the lack of incoming transfers. What Ashley actually said in his interview was Rafa could spend every last penny the club generates. To me that was using the future tense so it's money the club has yet to generate that Ashley was pledging not the transfer profit from our promotion season.

We all know that NUFC just don't do incoming transfers on deadline day.

We will be fine. We've shifted a lot of dead wood out and brought in some quality players. It's not Charnleys fault the transfer market has gone mad. I mean we wanted Cairney and Fulham apparently turned down our bid of £20m although it's more likely that we bid £10m.

Trying to be positive we have got rid of some dead wood and signed some cracking players in Atsu Lejeune Merino Joselu. Looking forward to seeing merino and Shelvey in midfield . Get yedlin back from injury and sign a left back before 11pm and i reckon weve done very well especially if colback goes. Only downside is Diame hasn't gone...yet

Mitro not so thick. He doesn't want to be sold so he gets himself banned for three games just before the transfer deadline.

Wasnt he a Rafa buy for the scousers?

Peter Crouch anyone?
