Guest Roger Kint Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 If today's Journal is to be believed, then it's not unexpected. All this talk of big deals for a quality striker was never gonna happen - bargain basement once again, with the Carroll cash remaining unspent! Yeah, it's nearly July, time to give up, they'll be no more money spent. 13 and a half hours til players can start being registered..............BOYCOUTT!!!

Funny how we are being linked with all of these quality names and after weeks of speculation we begin to find out that we aren't in the race. Some people would suggest there is a pattern there, though I agree that the time to judge will be at the end of August. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem we were in for Gameiro and just lost out to a more attractive prospect to him. Even though our interest may not have been as concrete with Gervinho I would like to believe at very least we were interested. The Sturridge links and denials have all been media based so we can't really charge the club with that one. We have been spoiled completing 3 (on the face of it) good deals before the window has even officially opened. I have no doubt that players will be brought in before the season kicks off (hopefully they will be quality ones). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 ALAN PARDEW today insisted that Newcastle United are not finished yet in the transfer market. The Toon boss is still in the hunt for a left-sided player and a striker, and revealed to the Chronicle today that he is expecting at least one more new face to be on the plane for the Magpies’ trip to the United States. As it stands, Newcastle – who are still trying to add Swansea City star Neil Taylor to their ranks – could field a team packed with potential if everyone stays fit. Hatem Ben Arfa and Dan Gosling are back from injury, and have new boys Yohan Cabaye, Sylvain Marveaux and Demba Ba to go into the mix with Fabricio Coloccini, Joey Barton and Cheick Tiote – plus Jose Enrique if Pardew can hold on to the ace Spaniard. Speaking on his progress on the transfer front, Pardew told the Chronicle: “We’re all looking forward to getting back to work next Monday. “The squad is looking healthy and, hopefully, there are still one or two to come. “They won’t be in before July 4, but we hope to get one in before the tour of America – and there could well be one after the tour.” We reported last night that United are not in the running for Chelsea starlet Daniel Sturridge, however, the chase for Charles N’Zogbia is thought to be ongoing as the Frenchman looks to secure his release from Wigan. Newcastle continue to be linked with Reading ace Shane Long, and Pardew’s excellent understanding with Brian McDermott – who he worked with at the Royals – may yet sway a deal. Pardew said: “We are still looking to get another striker – whether or not they will wear No 9, we will have to see.” Speculation that United are on the trail of Velez Sarsfield striker Juan Manuel Martinez has also come to the fore in the last couple of days, but interest in Swiss midfielder Tranquillo Barnetta of Bayer Leverkusen is thought to have been dropped by the Magpies. Reading striker Long is currently on holiday, but said before his departure: “If a club comes in for me we will deal with it. But that hasn’t happened so it’s business as usual as far as I’m concerned.” Read More http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/newcastle-united/nufc-news/2011/06/30/pardew-says-nufc-are-still-in-hunt-for-players-72703-28969540/#ixzz1QkzI9sA8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
