Ronaldo Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 In an ideal world S Taylor would play RB next season with Coloccini alongside Van Buyten. But Simpson is far, far from the worst RB i've seen at the club, and could do ok in the premiership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Hughton was a right-back so you'd hope he'd have something to pass on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I wouldn't be against signing him because he's mediocre enough to not be a complete liability even a league up. You don't get relegated because your right back wasn't up to it, and I'd rather we spend our money on making sure we don't have the worst midfield in the league again. If we got in a decent centre back I'd have Taylor out at full back without a doubt mind, Simpso will surely be no more than £500k and will be acceptable back-up.

ElDiablo Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 S Taylor Senderos Colo Enrique That's what I'm hoping for next season, I think Senderos is about the best we could do if Ashley is still here over the summer which he probably will even if he puts the club back up for sale. Simpson will get games though and would be good back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 He'd probably be better in a Premiership NUFC team than the current one. He's fine till you get the ball. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 There's not a chance in hell Senderos would in interested in coming up here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 According to a lot on this board, he's worse than S Taylor. In which getting him would surely be realistic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 Good age and right attitude but Simpsons been really poor in recent games IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amir_9 Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I really dont find the special thing about him, he would be horrible in the prem, I mean hes already average at this level, hardly offers much in attack except on the occasion, isnt exactly a world beater in defence either. Id rather we go for a better RB when were in / if were in the prem next season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 If Stephen Carr can be a Premiership right back, there's hope for everyone, Simpson included. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

macca888 Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Anyone know why Simpson wasnt even selected for the bench last night? I read that his agent was busy settling the Caldwell transfer to Wigan and that he was tying up loose ends on the Simpson deal to us. Wonder if he was kept out of the game for some reason regarding a possible breakdown in negotiations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Dunno but having Taylor there made us much more effective in possession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Apparently there's a story in tonight Chronicle that any permanent deal for Simpson has gone up in flames. I'm not a massive fan of his but yet again we seem incapable/ unwilling to seal a permanent deal for a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cajun Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 Good deal that, hope we can get the terms sorted. He isn't perfect but he will do till the summer then will be decent back up imo. We might not be able to afford any better in the summer anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Sounds like he's priced himself out of a move here. Journal reckons that he is holding out till the summer when we can offer him premier wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stozo Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Very dissapointing if we have missed out on him. We need to bring him back on loan at the least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest johnson293 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Sounds like he's priced himself out of a move here. Journal reckons that he is holding out till the summer when we can offer him premier wages. Radio Newcastle were said that negotiations with Man Utd broke down. If it is about wages, then its a shame as it seems (from his recent comments) that wanted to stay here - but maybe we were offering him low wages, due to his age and future potential?
