ExiledGeordie Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 I'm not "stressed" about this window however we really do need to sign a defender as cover for Williamson or Coloccini as mentioned above. The reason I'm not stressed is because I threw all logical stress out the window a while ago and logic would've meant us sign a centre half and a striker. The board is clearly seeing that we can "make do" with what we've got up front while Demba is away so they won't bother with a striker. Can't see Demba going at all, saggy face mentions a clause and then all the papers go bananas with the story. The latest is there's a bidding war among 6 clubs, :lol: Yeah right, fuck off. As skirge says it's probably related to relegation or at the very least if there is a clause in there, I'm guessing the club will offer him a new contract on more money to stave off the chance of him going. The only way I could see him going in the summer is if someone offers daft money but he's integral to the team and seems to be enjoying his time here especially as we took a punt on him with his knee questionmarks.

jdckelly Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Thought Pardew said we weren't going to sign a striker? Why does everyone suddenly think that we are? managers lie all the time in a transfer window trusting ones word is moronic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 There was a bit of chat of Erding to Everton on loan. Surely something we'd look at? Loan with view to buy, saving money for some defensive backup? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Other players linked with moves away include Cheik Tiote, Yohan Cabaye, Tim Krul, and Fabricio Coloccini. so basically any player that is doing well for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're easy bait having let go of Carroll on the last day last season, and talk of us being a selling club has become cliche and common place. Easy work for the journo scum. Plus there's the element who are jealous of our progress this season, and the fact that we've actually pulled off some decent results and ruffled a few feathers. They can all go fuck themselves.

thenige Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Ashley must know that the chance of use getting into Europe this season is high, and he will make quite a bit of money if we do To be honest there's really not that much money in the Europa League, I don't think that would be a massive concern. May help attract a slightly better standard of player but would be surprised if he pushed on further just for that. Personally I'd bloody love a European run.

TherealnorthernTOON Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 Reaching europe should be nice for mr Ashley and he should try to get there. Just think of the sponsor potential, more tickets sold etc. And not to say the younger players beeing played getting increase in value for resale.

If we got 30000 crowds @ £10 a ticket it suggest theres more money than you think in it. Nigh on guaranteed about 5 home games before we inevitably bow out and its easy cash for Ashley tbh and thats before taking grub/drink into account.
