Colocho Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 We'll end up with someone like Berthod. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1878 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Warnock is s**** now. Wouldn't take Shay back. If Blackburn went down Hoilett would be good, don't think they will though,rather have Jarvis though and I think Wolves will go down. I went off Jarvis completely at the weekend when I watched Tony Hibbert have him in his pocket for 90mins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Would sign Jay Bothroyd on a free for backup to the strikers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 If we're going to play the lone striker with HBA in the free role, then someone like Kevin Doyle might be worth a punt if Wolves go down. Shane Long perhaps, been linked a lot recently. Don't watch much SPL and it's hard to gauge quality of players up there, but I don't rate Bougherra at all. Remember him coming across as a total wanker last time we were linked. For those that do watch SPL what is Hooper like? Seems to score all types of goals and scored a shitload for a very poor team in the Championship. Still fairly young as well I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Hooper would be a huge risk. If you make a couple of quality signings as well as Hooper then it'd be understandable, but pinning your hopes on him to be a huge hit would be foolish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Last game I saw Hooper play he was rubbish. If we were going for a backup striker from SPL I think it should be Goodwillie. The main consideration with him though is that he is a rapist. Can't see why he wouldn't fit in though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only seen him a few times and seen his goals and he looks half decent. However Samaras did ok in that league for a while! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I'd rather live on Best and Shola than getting Doyle or Long here. We need to either sign quality players or stick to them weve got. No point in signing mediocre players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shayno Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I am going to kill the next person who suggests Doyle. Seriously, you aren't even worthy of watching the game if you seriously think he is a good option to play at Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEMTEX Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Defoe wouldn't be the greatest signing, but... I mean... Best, Lovenkrands, Ameobi, Ranger, Kuqi.... that's our strike force. I'd be happy if we signed Steve Bull right now. It'd be a massive improvement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, you aren't even worthy of watching the game if you seriously think he is a good option to play at Newcastle. Going with realistic suggestions, seeing as I am skeptical about how the money will be spent and the type of player we can attract, I think Doyle is a good shout. Other threads have us talking about Lukaku, Gameiro and whoever else is good on Football Manager. Feel free to kill me now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Not saying I want us to buy him, but Kevin Doyle would be our best striker by some distance if we did sign him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
