James Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Imagine if we signed Roux and Maiga. And the two left backs. And Santon. And a Barton replacement. Then faxed Nolan, Barton, Enrique a Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iwantcurlyhair2 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Just received my complimentary Membership badge today. Last week my daughter received her complimentary Junior Magpie pack. Next week letters are being prepared inviting all of us for a trial session to check prowess at left back and finishing. This will be followed up by a behind closed doors game against Gateshead with a first team contract at the end. Thank you Mr Ashley for the opportunity given to all ST holders. However, it must be stated, that any fan successful will not be able to transfer their ST or receive a refund. Nice that they are giving something back though. Wearing my new badge with pride.

taxfree Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 http://lensois.com/breve-rclens-42016-nolan-roux-a-deux-doigts-de-newcastle-.html After a transfer failed to Schalke 04 in Germany, Nolan Roux could finally take the road to England before August 31. Interested in the services of striker trained to RC Lens, Newcastle, Premier League resident, approached the Stade Brest and would have made an offer in line with the player's release clause, eight million. It is rumored that Friday night, officers were waiting for the approval of Brest RC Lens, which still holds 50% of the player to close the deal.

Joe_F Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Bloody hell we find it impossible to close a deal with one club never mind two. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I like the sound of Roux - can't say I have seen him play but he sounds like the kind of player we need. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toon25 Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Forgive me if i sound thick, how is he owned by 2 clubs? Think he's got a sell on clause mate, which is why Brest are speaking to Lens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 It looks very much like we've pursued two options for both left back and the striker, playing them off against each other. If everything goes to plan it might well be Cissokho and Roux through the door by Wednesday. I wouldn't say no to that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 He's another Xisco. He's even got an 'x' in his name ffs. Virtually identical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Aye, I think we'll definitely end up with one from Cissokho/Pieters and one from Maiga/Roux now. Good planning for once?

Okay i thought thats what it would be, so if we have met the asking price or 'release clause' if he has one, it should hopefully be just a case of the two clubs sorting out how much of that fee they get....they want to hurry the f*** up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(granted it's late in the day but least we haven't put all our eggs in one basket) It does seem to have been executed pretty well assuming it comes off. I'd be happy with a combination of any of those four tbh but Cissokho would be the preference for LB. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TherealnorthernTOON Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Cissokho, Roux and Santon. Our possesion play would tear teams apart by christmas. By end of may we would be challenging around 10th-6th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 There's a couple of "Ben Arfa vs. Everton"-esque videos of Roux on Dailymotion (every touch in a couple of games from last season). He looks exciting, if nothing else. Ridiculously two-footed and seems to have top technique in addition to good pace and strength. I really need to start watching Ligue 1.
