Danny Simpson (now retired)

[Jagten]

Lord above. 

[alexf]

I don't understand it. Myself and loads of other Newcastle fans i speak to don't rate him. If i ever watch games with supporters of other teams they all comment on how shit he is. Are we all just plain wrong?

[Jagten]

I bet its fucking prozone, and pardews reliance upon it. Load of shit.

Now your right alright, he's f*ckin diabolically shit and needs to GTFO ASAP id consider getting a kid of the street because lets face it he cant be any worse.......

 

If he's still our starting RB next season i might just go and kill myself.

No.  Just because a football manager rates a player means fuck all in the scheme of things.  I've always said fans make better managers than ex-players because they actually analyse the game more.

[Jagten]

That has genuinely made me furious, bunch of incompetent pricks. 

[Ketsbaia]

If he turns the contract down, fan-fucking-tastic! We need to end the misery and get rid of him, fast.

[Tachikoma]

His only saving grace is being better than some of the RBs we've had in recent memory.

Please, please, please, please be true

 

I hope he does reject it BUT he is an idiot, he is punching far above his weight by playing for us and hopefully if he rejects the offer he will realise that

 

I would rather recall Tavernier and give him a go at right back, can't be worse than Simpson

[Guest VegasToon]

I'd rather play Raylor at right back.

[Geordie Ahmed]

I'd rather play Raylor at right back.

 

BUT he is busy keeping Ben Arfa out of right midfield

[Zero]

Please be true. That's even better than a new signing.

[Dokko]

End of the day £25kpw is probably about right for his standard, its not really his fault he's going backwards, his manager is fine with it so why should he care?

 

He's still easily sold on that figure, and we'll probably get twice as much as he's worth.

 

Still would love a new LB and/or RB to challenge him, there's a much better player in there than what we are seeing but on the other side I simply wouldn't lose sleep seeing him go.

Neil Farrington on twitter:

"Good riddance to Simpson. For a player so modest to dictate terms to a PL club is absurd."

 

Couldn't agree more.

[JH]

You'll regret rejecting that contract offer Danny boy.

[gbandit]

Just go away Simpson, you've had your goalline clearances but that's about it.go pick up your pay packet elsewhere because at nufc,no one rates you

[Heron]

Don't want him to go until we have adequately replaced him.

[Skirge]

Don't want him to go until we have adequately replaced him.

 

We have already, but he can't go until we sign a leftback

Same here. Use the money to buy a left back and move Santon across to the right instead.

Aye.

His reluctance to run at the opposition is really getting frustrating tbh. Still don't mind him as such, defensively he's a much better full back from Raylor (though for a player who supposedly has "pace", Simpson was skinned quite a bit by the Wolves player on the wing, hmmm) but his attacking is virtually non-existant and he is probably the weakest player out of a full-strength starting 11.

 

I'm all for an upgrade in the summer like but in the meantime, I would still start him at RB. Got to say though, wouldn't be averse to Santon starting at RB and Ferguson starting at LB. If we do sign a new RB (or Tavernier steps it up), I wouldn't mind keeping Simpson as back up tbh.

Aye, really think competition will do him a bit of good. There has been a hint of complacency there tbh. Yeah, I'm hoping that there is still some potential in him somewhere but the signs aren't looking too good.....really looks like he's average at best.

[Jagten]

Have you seen his twitter defence. Its 'paper talk'... Yes Danny. Paper talk built on reliable sources within the club. We aren't all illiterate mugs you know. 

[Keefaz]

Just fuuuuuuuck ooooooooooooofffffffffffff.
