Skirge Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 The Smith for Mido rumour surely holds the title as the worst one so far. There is no chance whatsoever of this happening. Whats even more funny is the way SSN are reporting that Smith is very angry about this rumour, is Smith is very angry then what are they going to say after Mido gets on the blower to them? "Sky Sports News can now confirm that Mido is fucking livid after reports linking him with Newcastle United, the player told sky sports news that he would rather boil his bollocks in oil then joint he magpies".

He's a very good player imo. I've not seen loads of him as I don't really enjoy watching french football, and only watch it as a last resort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Got a couple of mates who are massive Rangers fans and they worship the ground Ferguson walks on. However they also say he's not been the same since his most recent bad injury and that his legs are gone. In other words perfect for our midfield.

I'd rather we took our chances on a young player like we did with Guthrie. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NorwegianMag Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hope he's a sideback. A what? Ehm that sentence was a bit norwenglish! But I would say it was correct though Either a left back or right back? a side back? you know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Begbie Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Come to think of it Ferguson is quite similar to Guthrie in style and really not what we need at all. We need an athletic ball winner to do the dirty work. Our 'scouts' should be scouring the french league for this sort of player imo. We should try a cheacky bid to get Veloso from Sporing. Rumours are that A.Ferguson is trying to sign him, and is most likely to cost 10-20M. What happend to that Moutinho guy we were interessted in last transfer window? One thing I wonder about, didnt Wise try to offload many first team players the last day in the transfer window? Rumours about Owen and Co beeing offered to various clubs. And didnt we try to offload Barton in the last transfer window too, but he said he wanted to repay us for showing faith in him. We've got no chance of getting someone in like Veloso. You never know, stranger things have happend. But your right, we wont get him unless we try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said earlier on in this thread that i didn't see what he offered that geremi doesn't. Both has-beens who will get over-run in most matches in the premier. I'm going to wait to see if it actually happens before saying too much though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_69 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 I personally think Geremi offers a lot more than Butt in the middle of the park. The fact that he can pass the ball to teammates is a big plus for a start Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 £8m bid tabled for shay from city according to the mail. I heard Mark Hughes on 5 Live within the last hour say that he hadn't bid for Given. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 All the signings mentioned really get the hairs standing up on the back of your neck - NOT..!! Ferguson, together with Ameobi getting a 3 Yr deal, has bracketed the club firmly with the dross of the Prem. When Stan Seymour was on the board in the 80s, he once said before a game with Liverpool at SJP that ; "Newcastle really can't be expected to beat a club like Liverpool'... He would be proud of his inheritance today......!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggio Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Man City look set to maintain their interest in West Ham's Craig Bellamy and Scott Parker but have not bid for Newcastle's Shay Given. Eastlands chief Mark Hughes is trying to add to his squad in order to move up the Premier League table after a poor start to the season, and he wants Parker and Bellamy on board. But so far the Hammers have rebuffed his efforts to land the pair so Hughes is considering making an increased double offer. He told City's website: "It's well-documented that we made an inquiry over him [Parker], and over Craig Bellamy as well, but that was rejected. We have not gone back to the table on that one, but we may well do." On unsettled Magpies keeper Given, Hughes added: "There has been no offer for Shay Given. As discussed in the past, until something actually happens and we don't put bids in, it is not fair to discuss players that we have not bid for."

The fact that he can pass the ball to teammates is a big plus for a start agreed, i'd have him over butt anytime. less stupid free kicks, less stray passes and then he is probably our best dead ball "specialist" imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
