Dokko Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Red tops running with a whammer trail of Andy Carroll, what do you think, would you be happy? Personally think if a £4m bid came in Ashley would take him down on his personal chopper and we'd never hear from him again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 NOTW: WEST HAM are set to make a move for Newcastle striker Andy Carroll in the transfer window. The England Under-21 striker is one of the lowest earners at St James' Park and Toon owner Mike Ashley has shown before that he is not afraid to sell key players. Carroll, 20, is important to manager Chris Hughton but a New Year offer of around £4million would be difficult to turn down. Birmingham and Bolton are also interested.

Guest neesy111 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 where the fuck are west ham getting 4M from, there more skint than us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 In theory it'd be great money for Carroll. But we have a paper thin squad as it is and there's no fear of us getting in someone who could match the averageness that Carroll gives us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Keep him. I think Ashley would accept that offer though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fugazi Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Pointless letting him go unless he really wants to be away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 After Ashley has said he wants to keep us and will put money into the club I'd like to think he'd keep him and say no. Then I remember he's a money-grabbing bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 If I thought we would buy a replacement - yes for that fee. So, no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 where the fuck are west ham getting 4M from, there more skint than us We got £4m to sign Nolan last year didn't we? Unlike Nolan though, Carroll isn't past his peak so I doubt any bid will be entertained. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Would like to hold on to him. Not a great player but a good option to have in a squad for sure. 4m isn't much in the grand scheme of things and we should be concentrating on getting rid of some of the higher earners (Geremi, Butt etc) before accepting bids like this for the youngsters.

jdckelly Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 also they are saying (exclusively mind) this In a further blow, I understand Newcastle have no plans to replace Richard Money, who left his post as head of the club's academy to take charge at Luton Town - despite declarations last week in midweek from managing director Derek Llambias that there would be major investment in youth. yes that is what hughton said after mooney left he said that joe Joyce would take over the academy, some exclusive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Carroll to West Ham has slightly more beliveability than most. They have Diamante and Cole so AC would give them good aerial power, I think Zola wants them to line up like him and Flo at Chelsea with Diamante taking his place.

Decky Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Almost tempting. Depends on where we are come the end of January, if they are seriously interested. We would never get anywhere near 4mill for him if we go up, and he would never start for us as he isnt good enough for the Premier League. Yes its good for cover now, but lets see where we are in 2 and a half months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 We shouldn't sell any players because no money from them goes into buying new ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
