Guest neesy111 Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 This regime needs to keep him, and I'm not sure why they're being w@nkers over this. I wouldn't be disappointed to see him end his career here. i think it's taylor tbh being the wanker (probably asking for shit loads of money) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Perch, Simpson or Taylor at RB know who I would rather see playing there.... its a must to get him to sign another deal. Like him or not he is our best option at RB by a mile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Swap him for Mancienne. Sorted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 is his father still his agent? No. So the supporters who have it in for ST will have to find another irrelevant stick to beat him with. I had heard it was one of the Shepards. Isn't Shepherd Junior in business with or working for the same agency as Paul Stretford? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Logic Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Still wouldnt mind seeing him as a right back. Certanly better than Simpson and Raylor and probably better than Perch. It's not going to happen like.........so not fussed either way This. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 from the mirror Meanwhile, Newcastle are ready to break their wages ceiling to keep central defender Steven Taylor at the club. Talks last week between the club and Taylor’s representatives look poised to bring about a breakthrough in the contract impasse. It is understood Magpies owner Mike Ashley is prepared to give 24-year-old Taylor, whose contract is up next June, a deal in excess of the £35,000-a-week limit imposed on new contracts last year. Taylor, recovering from a dislocated shoulder, is optimistic a deal can be reached before he returns to action in October. But any new deal will be partly subsided by the departure of a big earner. That could mean Newcastle listening to offers for Alan Smith, who is paid more than £60,000 a week. http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Peter-Lovenkrands-gave-up-his-World-Cup-dream-with-Denmark-to-help-his-family-cope-with-the-death-of-his-dad-article560545.html#ixzz0xHSU85wn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 It's horrific. They should be working day and night to get him off the books. Why would he leave though? On silly money, still playing and even made vice-captain of the club. No incentive whatsoever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Well that's kinda my point, he shouldn't have been made vice-captain and shouldn't be in the team. There'd surely be a manager out there that would take him on a free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be happy if we could keep him on as a cheap coach... not happening, of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 It's horrific. They should be working day and night to get him off the books. Why would he leave though? On silly money, still playing and even made vice-captain of the club. No incentive whatsoever. I can't see him being anywhere near a regular this season, especially if the Tiote signing is completed. Also with him now being 30 it would probably be a good idea to try to get a longer contract somewhere now, even if its on slightly less per week. When his current deal here finishes he'll be 32 and will be lucky to get any kind of deal from a Premiership club, let alone something near £60k a week.

Skirge Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Which hatred? Hatred may be a bit strong.. but plenty on here don't rate/like him .. and like is being said, would love to see Smith go if it meant his wages can go towards keeping Taylor Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 Tbh, I'd happily treat Smith like utter shite if it got him off the books, he's taking the wage of two 'top tier' players under the new system. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 oliver in the people thinks we're ready to offer him 45k a week with a relegation clause to reduce it to 25k should we go down also some crap about he may not be in 25 man squad. he says this despite us not having 25 players over 21 anyway so why wouldnt we put him in the squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
