AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 As this is the realistic transfer thread I think we should be realistic and accept we will not be making any signings this window. I think Pardew knows it too, he is not distanced from Owner & Chairman, if he believes he is going to get new faces in then I wonder how long before Pards walks too. I hope that Pardew would have known exactly what the situation was before he took the job. I think it's highly unlikely he would resign over lack of signings.

I hope that Pardew would have known exactly what the situation was before he took the job. I think it's highly unlikely he would resign over lack of signings. So more of a case of Perds just playing the game, knowing dam well he aint getting anyone in this window. Just never thought of him as a puppet manager.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 I don't think he's a 'puppet manager', I just think the club has placed quite tight restrictions on how much can be spent on players, and it is difficult to get good players under those conditions. No doubt the club is working hard to get players on their terms, signings are always pretty difficult in January anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I agree its not as easy window to get player in but I also think the money issue means for us its even harder, tight wage conditions as well as tight transfer fee's. Maybe Pards thought once he was in he could change their minds, I guess time will tell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 This is all turning very Chris Hughton. Which means in 12 months time Pardew will be loved by all! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilshere done well on loan at Bolton so wouldn't suprise me if Arsenal just sent him their in the the hands of Coyle who admires Vela. Won't be long before he's sold off to a Spanish club anyways because it doesn't seem like he's going to be breaking into Arsenal's team. How Bendtner gets picked before him is beyond me!

LooneyToonArmy Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 O`Hara? esp if the Ireland deal falls through...cover for Smith too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 What's with this cover for Smith? Firstly he's injured, not leaving the club (sadly), when do club's buy players to replace an injured substitute? and for the record neither O'Hara or Ireland would count as cover for a defensive midfielder... sorry a shit defensive midfielder.

1878 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/8807647.Tranmere_s_teenage_star_outshines_Chamberlain/?ref=mr Shouldn't bee too expensive. "Tranmere boss Les Parry mentioned this week that his club wouldn’t be bullied into accepting a “silly money” offer" of £300,000 for the player. 350 k then? Jennings is supposed to have spent time at Finch Farm last week. Been a fair bit of talk about us signing him. Looks a good prospect... allegedly a bit of a jack the lad, mind you.

His Twitter: 'The game was against charlton, quite a few first team lads played, score was 4-1 i think, just needed to get another game under my belt, not sure weather ill be in squad, need to go on loan to get some games missed too much already this season so wanna be playing every week ' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has energy and drive in midfield, would be a good option for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
