Memphis Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I'm guessing it'll be Elmander in - maybe Sturridge on loan. Just a sad, sad day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan_Taylor Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Well, if you can't expect loyalty from a local lad who we have stuck by threw several altercations with the law, then who can you expect loyalty from? Absolutely disgusting behaviour from Carroll to put a transfer request in this late on in the window - especially as it appears he's strung us along with his "wanting to stay" speeches all along. I hope he is a massive failure at Liverpool and his career nose dives from here. I may sound bitter, but to be honest with you, I am. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 The club's got no fucking ambition man, We fucking rejected a british transfer record for a player who 18 months ago was average at best, and still now has only proven himself in the Premier League for what, 5 months? If he didn't put in a transfer request he'd have been an NUFC player tomorrow. it's basic fucking English this, why can't some people understand it.

Guest Brazilianbob Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 He is no longer a geordie as far as I am concerned. Hope he enjoys his exile in that shithole that passes as Liverpool, because he better not show his f*cking face in Newcastle again. Never been so disappointed in a Newcastle player before. Just when it looked like we were going places this happens. Its got to stem back to Hughton getting sacked! The more I think of it it was probably engineered by NUFC. The sacking of Hughton to be replaced by Pardew a no mark manager because they knew Carroll would be loyal to Hughton and would stay. I will never darken the doors of SJP again after this. Its the last straw for me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I spose on the upside (have to stay positive) if you said we'd get £35m for Carroll this time last year I'd have snapped both fucking hands off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teasy Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Does he want to leave- Yes Have we ripped of Liverpool and got a fantastic deal- Yes Some people never learn. Fantastic deal for Fat Mike yes, but not for NUFC. Your one of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I hope some of this money goes towards a tranfer budget that all gets spent on a good player. I don't care about age as long as they score for fun. Bellamy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 The blame is split. If the club was run with more ambition Carroll wouldn't want to leave. If Carroll loved the club as much as he said he did he wouldn't want to leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 People think this is FM with all this 'if we accepted a bid why we would he hand in a transfer request'. It's f***ing not. Someone from LFC calls up and says 'we'll offer x', we say 'yes', tell them the conditions that Carroll has to say he handed in a transfer request, tell Carroll, Carroll doesn't mind staying or leaving, especailly since he'll be getting a massive and instant raise, so he goes along with it. Lots of non-disclosure agreements are signed, lots of money changes hand and at the end of it, Liverpool can say they got a player that wanted to play for them and Ashley can say that he did all he could do keep Carroll. Everybody's happy, and both sets of fans love their owners more after today. "Carroll doesn't mind staying or leaving, especailly since he'll be getting a massive and instant raise" That's enough. Why can't people understand "Carroll wants to leave us" is the most essential elements for the deal and the request? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest VegasToon Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Gutted. I really thought he would stay and help build us. We have been getting stronger and stronger and we weren't that far from really competing for Europe. If he stays healthy, we will regret this transfer. My only hope now is that we continue to build. Sign Barton, Enrique and Colo to long term deals and get us at least 2 more strikers. We can use this money to really provide depth to our team. Whether we do it or not, only the Fat Man knows.

I don't think that's a particularly important factor tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayson Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Yeah why didn't we just handcuff him to a radiator until the window closed.. Common ffs, we did well to resist such an insane offer to begin with. He's asked to leave now, we cant do much more. Aye we were struggling to resist so much that we stayed silent & kept inviting offers. Poor Ashley, hes been completely caught off guard Fucking hell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor Swift Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 This means Torres to Chelsea is also done, by the way. There's no way Liverpool will allow Chelsea to pull out of the deal at this stage, so it's done. And you're all incredibly naive if you think that Carroll seriously wanted to leave and that Ashley did all he could to keep him. Incredibly naive.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Feel fucking sick about this TBH. Local lad, born 5 minutes down the road from me, wearing the number 9 for the toon. The stuff dreams are made of, a player you could really get behind. Fuck this shit about £35m being too much to turn down. It's not about money, it's about sending the message that we're NUFC and we're on the way up. And fuck Andy Carroll for leaving us, why the fuck would he want to play for Liverpool anyway?

Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Ronaldo - £80m Ibrahimovic - £56.5m Kaka - £56m Torres - £50m (?)
