West Ham agree fee in region of £15m with Liverpool for Andy Carroll


Recommended Posts

Was somebody saying that torn thigh's can become a consistent injury the other day?

 

I think people know where i'm going with this...

 

Literally couldn't get to sleep last night. This football club man. When i heard the LFC fans singing his name on the tele i just wanted to cry.

 

that's if he was ever injured in the first place.

could have been the case that this deal had been agreed weeks ago, and that LFC told NUFC not to play carroll through january knowing they were buying him on deadline day  :harry:

I think hes trying to save face by saying he was forced out, so that when he comes back up here on a night out he'll not be abused by us fans. We'll unlucky Andy you will

Still genuinely devastated by this..

 

Reckon I should take a break from nufc for a little while. Just can't handle it right now :(

 

 

 

i think about 50,000 other people should too :(

 

That would be the best thing to do..

 

I don't even want to get angry but Keegan, Shearer, Hughton and Carroll were all driven out despite their love for the club. Say what you want, Ashley must go.

Go on then. Stay away. I hear Sunderland need more fans.

 

Keep the advice for yourself my friend

No Shaun, why don't you just f*** off.

 

The guy is entitled to having a break from feeling drained in the recent years by money grabbing dickheads that take something you have true feelings for and continually batter it at every opportunity. If you're sat there and not feeling a thing over this then maybe it's you that needs to f*** off up the road.

 

Arrogant prick.

Why is he still here then? Some right weirdos on this forum, everything is a conspiracy theory.

 

"Aliens must of abducted Andy!! - he's my fucking idol!!!"

He's definitely gone just for the money, no way he's left a shithole of a club with little future prospects to join one with genuine ambition

Here is a transcript of the texts that i made and received.

 

Sunday 30th January 14:37

 

SW: Are you leaving mate?

 

AC: I\'m not going anywhere mate.

 

 

Monday 31st January 16:28

 

SW: Liverpool in for you mate. Any truth in that?

 

AC: Dunno what\'s happening yet still mate. Thanks.

 

17:02

 

SW: Sky Sports say it\'s a matter of time mate. What\'s club said?

 

AC: they have kind of said we don\'t want u but want me to say I wanna go. And I said I don\'t want to go.

 

17:26

 

SW: Have you put in a transfer request?

 

AC: No I didn\'t that\'s what I mean that\'s what they wanted me to do and I said no.

 

17:27

 

SW: So they want you to go?

 

AC: They said they wanted to accept it.

 

17:28

 

SW: So you have no choice?

 

AC: Looks like it.

 

17:31

 

SW: Your agent will be doing ok out of this. When you going?

 

AC: I don\'t know mate. Gutted tho.

 

17:32

 

SW: Any message you want put across to the fans? I\'m happy to do that for you mate.

 

AC: They said they wanted the money.

 

17:37

 

SW: Anything else?

 

AC: Gutted to be leaving Newcastle but I was kind of pushed out the door.

 

17:41

 

SW: That it?

 

AC: Just what i\'ve just said really. Gutted to be leaving my home club but I was practically told to go. Didn\'t want to leave that\'s why i signed a 5 year deal.

 

17:47

 

SW: I will pass these onto the press lads I know.

 

AC: Sound mate.

 

17:56

 

SW: Can you give press lads a call to do an interview when deal done?

 

AC: I will yeah. I will speak to him later. Bit busy atm mate.

 

 

Then why Brad Inman said "Bye Andy" at noon?

Because he is ITK.

Makes you wonder why you still take an interest in football when the one player you felt was 100% committed turns his back on the club. At least we've still got Jose!

 

Agreed. Loyalty quite simply means fuck all these days. ££££ rules and ££££ talks.

 

Still devastated though, couldn't get a wink last night. Tbh, I know £35m is a lot but at this point in time I don't think it's even possible to argue that it was a good deal as we've not been able to reinvest and I very much doubt that we'll receive reassurances that that reinvestment will take place in the summer. What's worse is that it might cost us more than that if we go down looking at things as they stand now, we're fine, but most of the sides around us have been able to improve their squad. You know, before yesterday, I thought we were going in the right direction. Trust the fat cunt to fuck it all up.

 

I hope to god that the boys can keep up some momentum until the end of the season and keep us up.

Nothing  do with the 85k or so a week they were offering you then, Andy?

 

Was never pushed out. He signed a long term and didn't need to submit a transfer request.

 

Do you blame him for not turning down a 50k pay increase though? Would any other player show that sort of loyalty, let alone at Carrolls age & from a position of being on a very low wage in relation to what clubs are valuing him at.

 

Im not sure theres much to have a go about

 

My point was directed at his viewpoint that he was 'pushed out'.

To be honest those texts prove bugger all.

 

It's not a text conversation between friends, Steve Wraith (an editor of a crap fanzine - i bought one copy outside St James Park, wont be buying another) texted Andy Carroll and asked him what was happening. Andy was never going to say "Aye Steve, I'm leaving because I'll earn more in a week than most people who have a season ticket will earn in 4 years!" Carroll knows that this conversation would probably end up being released (and confirms it can be at the end) so why would he say anything but that he doesn't want to go?

Pardew's press confrence should be interesting this morning.

 

I imagine it will be 'cancelled'.

 

Nah, I think Pardew will face them.

 

Mind you, he'll probably have an 'off record' talk about how they're not talking about Carroll.

And like everything else, it still doesn't say why he handed in a transfer request.

Who is going to abuse him? Only cowards from a distance & the stupid will do this.

I think he probably was pushed out but he wasn't exactly struggling.

 

If we'd wanted to keep him I think he'd be here this morning.

 

I still can't bring myself to be angry at the club for accepting a 35m offer for him. It's an insane amount for a player who has proven as little as he has, not to mention his 'colourful' personality.

 

At the end of the day Carroll had the choice and he fucked off. What exactly could the board have done to punish him had he told Liverpool to do one?
