ElDiablo Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 When has it ever bee different though? Since the transfer window was brought in it's always been this mental rollercoaster of speculation and rumour. Kinnear's comments make this one worse. Like you aren't lapping it up.

Rebellious Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hopefully Kinnear means it as Edgar is in his comfort zone and he needs to start pushing himself more to improve and to earn a contract. Will be a huge knock to the lads confidence anyway. How is it going to knock Edgars Confidence ? The boy isnt deluded enough to think he is on a par with Beye. Sporting titles and awards Individual Newcastle United Player of the Year: 2008 Club Strasbourg French Cup Winner: 2001 Marseille French Cup Runner up (2): 2006, 2007 UEFA Cup Runner up: 2004 The only way it would knock Edgars confidence is if we brought someone in with less experience then Edgar. Its like saying Ameobi`s confidence is knocked everytime Owen is picked ahead of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 It looks like Kinnear is just being fed information by somebody and doesn't really have a handle on what is transpiring behind the scenes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brazilianbob Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Kinnear is getting fed the same rubbish that KK got. If you remember, KK was saying judge me after the transfer window shuts, because he had been fed the line that Schweinstieger was coming to replace Milner. If we don't make any signings of note when the transfer window has finally slammed shut and we slip into the bottom three, I can see the fans eventually rioting if we suffer another humiliating thrashing at home by either Man U , Arsenal or Chelsea, and ripping out the seating at SJP in protest.

Parky Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 What ammuses me about all of this is that after Keegan left we got a statement from the club saying "It is a fact that Kevin Keegan agreed not to speak about transfers to the press". So what exactly has changed to allow Joe Kinnear to spout every single detail of our attempted transfer dealings (including players position, height, nationality) at every opportunity? Either it's all spoonfed to him or he's making it up. mackems.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I think it's because Ashley no longer cares enough to enforce any policy like that on the manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mucky01 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 “We will have them (the potential loan signings) behind closed doors in a training game on Tuesday to see if they come up to scratch because we haven’t actually seen them play” how reassuring is that?!!! some scouting policy!

I should hope its just because Kinnear hasnt saw them, but you never know. You get the feeling that Kinnear doesn't really know what is going on and will end up with the players that Wise has found or have been suggested by Vetere.

Dave Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 I was thinking perhaps Appiah is the one he's on about as being injured long-term. Edit - but that wouldn't be a loan, so I guess not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some logic in your argument next time. Pretty sure that means they've not had a proper look at them, not that they've never seen them play. I'd rather have a focused look at a player I'm not sure about than rely on DVDs, scouting reports and previous matches where one couldn't keep such a close eye on a player.

ChezGiven Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 The amount of hysteria at the smallest thing in this thread is quite astounding. I'm assuming age has something to do with it.
