Incognito Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Should never have sold Parker! you're not a very contributive poster are you now He makes a valid point though tbh. would he have kept us up like? Possibly.He wouldn't have made as many mistakes/giving penalties away as Butt did, for sure.Its all Aunty/balls/Uncle scenario though,but I would have been far more comfortable with Parker than Butt/Nolan/Smith/Guthrie tbh.

Guest westamfan Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Yeah, it was apparent that the team was lacking 360 pirouettes last season HAHAHAHAHA. The Parker trade mark turn WORKS pal! He was awesome for us last year. A real monster in the middle. I remember he won you the game at Upton Park a few years ago with some real crunching challenges, I couldn't believe it when we signed him. He's was the difference for us last year, we could have really struggled if it wasn't for him. Looking at it now it does seem totally crazy you kept Butt, signed Smith Barton and Nolan...(did Geremi play in the middle too?) and never really found a suitable replacement.

Well quite obviously he's better than the gash we've got, but I believe the original theory would've been to sell him and sign in someone to improve the midfield. Something I was more than happy with at the time. Shit went sour though, didn't it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No midfielders play well here. They haven't since Gary Speed left. Doesn't help we kept picking them up in their hasbeen years. How is Ken Dyer doing? Is he able to walk?

Dyer's made a few starts, excites me, then gets injured without any clear date when he will return. Such a shame, i was in the first row at villa around march/april when Dyer played and he really did put in a brilliant display. It was the best attacking performance we'd seen even though he played for 70 minutes. He is class on the ball. Next year we're expecting big things. We sold Reo Coker for 10 million and bought Parker for 7 and improved the squad and made profit at the same time. Brilliant move by the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good players are always easier to sell than over-paid has-beens as I'm sure we'll find yet again this summer. If Nolan insists on staying he should be put through intensive training sessions twice a day. Then left out of the squad on match days for the remaining time on his contract.

Skirge Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Nolan has plenty to prove to Toon fans KEVIN Nolan has revealed the reason why he is so reluctant to leave Newcastle United just six months into his St James's Park career. The midfielder is understood to be among the big-earning players the relegated club is willing to offload this summer in a bid to reduce a crippling wage bill. However, Nolan's agent has insisted the 26-year-old is fully committed to United, despite the drop, while the Liverpudlian himself – who reported back for pre-season training on Wednesday – is desperate to show Newcastle's fans his best form. The former Bolton Wanderers captain, signed in January for £4.5m, was dismissed in only his second game in black and white, and was short of fitness on his return. Asked about United's support, Nolan told the Gazette: "I get fed up of reading about them, because they're that good. "That's not a nasty thing saying it, it's just because you don't even have to mention it. "As soon as people know you play for Newcastle, they want to talk about the fans and the stadium. That just comes naturally with Newcastle. "You know how fantastic they are. They supported us throughout – they were absolutely brilliant (last season). "I've got no problems with them. They've got behind us even in games where we've been in a bit of a sticky situation." Nolan – under contract at St James's Park until 2013 – made 10 starts for Newcastle last term. * Three more Newcastle United games will be broadcast live next season. Sky Sports will show the home games against Reading, on August 15 (5.20pm kick-off), and Leicester City, on August 31 (7.45pm), and the visit to Cardiff City, which has been put back 24 hours to September 12 (2.05pm). http://www.shieldsgazette.com/nufc/Nolan-has-plenty-to-prove.5429383.jp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
