Don't be too fooled by #nufc rejection of bid. #lfc will get their man. Toon driving hard bargain, want to look tough.

 

 

Thats basically what i think is happening.

 

The silence from us all day, only to realise a very non detailed statement leaving it all open still is a huge sign.

 

Its down to Carroll

how is he going to pass a medical when he can't even kick a ball? Unless all of this was pure bullshit by NUFC.

 

How did Dan Gosling pass a medical, then?

Maybe he didn't?

If he does go to Liverpool, will they have any money left for someone to hit crosses? With their current team, he could get less service than he does here.

 

I can remember losing Waddle (tribunal ffs!), Beardsley and Gazza, but none of them went for galactico money. This is insane!

Suggestion on Twitter from some gadgie that Liverpool will make final bid of £36.5 million.

 

Reject that fucker.

Liverpool say Carroll's on his way there now. 'Rejecting' £35m seems like empty posturing, as @simonbirdmirror says

 

LOL, how can it be empty posturing, surely we have some say in the matter, if we reject the bid they can just say, fuck you lot we are siging he anyway, even if you don't agree.

 

They still have to make an improved offer and there's no confirmation of that yet.

So, not being one who bets a whole lot, I wouldn't really understand this sort of thing, but is there money to be made from speculating on the transfer market so that by rejecting the first offer and then the second offer increases the odds and thereafter the amount of money to be made?

Speculation of Spurs coming in at a late stage and offering Crouch as a makeweight :lol:

 

£40 + Crouch I hope. (by saying hope I dont really hope for it to happen, but if it does happen I hope it £40 million at least.)

 

Lets get this bidding start going. Lets get as much as possible, if we now are to sell him.

TalkShite reckon NUFC are holding out to find a replacement.

 

This makes the most sense.

 

My prediction - the bid will edge up and be accepted at or near 40m, but it won't be confirmed until very very late as we simply have to find something resembling a short-term replacement (Sturridge, perhaps) before making it official.
