NG32 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Dont Pardew and Cole have a bit of history from Pardews West Ham days, didnt they have a run in as Pardew dubbed coles crew the "Baby Bently" boys or summik. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobby_solano Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I suppose the positive thing would be we can all wear our old Toon shirts from the 90's with #9 Cole on the back. that's exactly what my mate said in the pub yesterday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 The only player that would improve the Newcastle squad from West Ham's team would be Demba Ba IMO. Carlton Cole is complete horseshit. Another example of a player hyped up when he scored a few goals simply because he's English. Parker is a good player no doubt but he plays the same role as Tiote doesn't he? He's not as good as Tiote either, he's just English, i.e. over-hyped. He'll go to Spurs as well, and probably get overshadowed and exposed by Sandro, who looks to be a very good player. Back to Ba though, he'd probably only cost £5million or so. Looks a steal right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Does Ba have the right attitude after last nights too tired to sign an autograph at the WHUFC party? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'm clutching at straws here, but Coles last three seasons at WHU haven't actually been that bad, considering they have been utter horse shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Parka Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 He's just a s*** shola. "26 December 2010, he scored two goals in one match in the Premier League for a first time" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'm clutching at straws here, but Coles last three seasons at WHU haven't actually been that bad, considering they have been utter horse shit. A big chunk of his goals this season came in the league cup. His goal return in the league was poor. I know West Ham have been bad but surely they would have been looking at him as one of the players that would turn that around for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

womblemaster Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 maybe we are after him as a hold up player [to hold up our attack-ed] who got more strength and presence than shola? Has he got more pace than shola? probably similar finishing with feet, but better header? imo an upgrade if we then loan shola out. Assuming we also get a quality 15mil+ striker in.

Ronaldo Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 The average loony in the street has more pace than Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colos Curls Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 If he's an upgrade from shola it's only by a tiny miniscule bit, why waste that much on a player who may be a tiny bit better than a horeshit player already, just search through all the European leagues and find a younger prospect with time on his side for half he price, look at man u and Hernandez. It's possible but it's also possible for a younger player to flop but I'd rather take a chance than having to gorge my eyeballs out next season watching cole/ameobi/lovenkrands Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Ba is a gamble. Stock City turned down the deal after Ba failed a medical. Could be down to not enough money but there's uncertainty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Icke - Son of God Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I'd avoid Cole like the fucking plague. He's absolute wank. Thankfully I think it's just paper talk because he doesn't fit our rumoured transfer strategy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Relegated player + us needing a number 9 + former Pardew player. Can see where the story came from but I'd be surprised if we went for him. Could see him back at Wolves though if Doyle leaves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 I would go for someone like Rondon and Anthony Ujah, both young and Ujah would probably be happy even if he didn't play most games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
