Cajun Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I can just imagine the players walking around a hotel telling all and sundry about certain players being sold. I am sure there are no manager/backroom staff in the hotel either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Speculation aside a search of Twitter for him brought up this picture.. http://www.soccerbible.com/cfs-filesystemfile.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Blogs.Components.WeblogFiles/general.2011.January/Jan_5F00_carrollsign_5F00_clos.jpg I'm sure he can always pursue a career in modelling when the football's over.

Cajun Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 The media creates bullshit, fans perpetuate bullshit. I do no believe for one second the players are telling hotel staff that Carroll has been sold. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 He shouldn't be sold unless it's above 40M for a number of reasons. 1) There is a total lack of decent strikers out there currently, hence why teams like Spurs are struggling to find one. 2) We should be stating a matter of intent that we want to build a team around Carroll. 3) If Carroll is sold it could be the final straw for a few fans as to me he's given NUFC fans hope this season and it's great to have a proper number 9 again after Martins failed to do much at the club.

I'm sure we heard something a few weeks back as well, also those twats on NUFC.com were even fuelling the fire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 We hear something every week "Oww Newcastle have a decent player, he MUST be on the verge of a transfer ". We had it every window with Owen too, unfortunately he wasn't taken off our hands. It's just very frustrating, I hate living with the next disappointment at the forefront of our minds. Living with a constant expectation of disappointment is a fucking depressing way to go on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Is Spuds as good as it gets for Carroll? He's better than Chamahk (sp) and Drogba's playing and scoring less now. Balotelli, Tevez, and Adebayor are also hardly the epitome of stability. At Citeh he'd get Rooney money. I'm sure we wouldn't be able to replicate it, but they sold their best striker for 30mill and it has done them much harm. Just saying like. Like them though, a bidding war involving Citeh is the best way to go. It put seven or eight million on the price of Berbatov. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I'm quite comfortable with the situation tbh Spurs are testing the water IMHO, similar to our pursuit of Rooney. I'm sure his agent will alert bigger fish who will outbid spurs. I would absolutely love to keep him and I am convinced he will stay a couple of years. If by then we are still scraping relegation I would not begrudge him a move to man utd or even man city for top dollar. He has unfinished business here. And in 2 years if we are top 8 who knows?

James Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 We won't sell Carroll this month. There is no time to get a replacement for our goals and we would get relegated which would cost us more than we'd get from the sale of Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
