Guest Shaun Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 I tweeted this to Joey Barton: @Joey7Barton hey joey, what do you think of Coloccini's new long term, high earning contract? keeps him at #nufc til he's 34. Strip the flesh, salt the wound! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch. Still though, don't think he deserves any direct ribbing off us, funny though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Great news. I hope they've given him part of the wage budget allocated to Danny Simpson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Biggest signing the club has made in years. The biggest signing we'll make over the duration of his new deal too. Absolutely ecstatic, love you Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Why do people keep reffering to Danny Simpson? Was there something about him turning down a new deal? I must have missed it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Why do people keep reffering to Danny Simpson? Was there something about him turning down a new deal? I must have missed it. Aye he has turned down a new offer apparently, but Pardew reckons it should get sorted out, unfortunately with him staying, according to the Chronicle Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 The club will still look to replace Simpson in the summer IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 The club will still look to replace Simpson in the summer IMO. And rightly so. We've just secured the basis of our defensive core and Taylor signed a new deal last year. Time to get rid of the individuals that are holding us back and improve. That's how you move forward.

Pata Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 What a morning! Noticed this thread and celebrated like crazy, then someone mentions Krul in this thread, I check the Krul thread and celebrate again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sifu Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 This is fantastic news. A brilliant start to the weekend. Captain Colo is arguably our most important player, he's such a rock in defence and securing him for the long term is nothing but a massive boost. I'm so delighted!

Mr Logic Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 What a morning! Noticed this thread and celebrated like crazy, then someone mentions Krul in this thread, I check the Krul thread and celebrate again. Other way round for me, I was checking the Krul thread first.

Cajun Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Massive statement of intent tbh. There is no way we are going to sell him for big money and there is no way his wages are going to be low. This is a big sign that those in charge actually care about how we do and it's not just about buying young players to sell for a profit. So many positives from this news. Fucking ecstatic!

This is a big sign that those in charge actually care about how we do and it's not just about buying young players to sell for a profit. So many positives from this news. Fucking ecstatic! That's how I see it as well. It looks like now we have our finances on a solid footing we are investing the money back into quality on the pitch. Colo is already an icon and for us to have secured a player of his stature on what must be substantial wages is a clear message that we are moving into the big league. How far are we into the five year plan btw? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 He's the lynchpin of the defence and together with Krul is vital. Bring back a fit Saylor, sign another solid centre back from the continent and bring in a new left back and we're looking good. Awesome news Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
