Foluwashola Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Why are people upset about this? Derby nerves, innit. Instead of people shitting their pants, they're metaphorically shitting into their keyboards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 This is it with me and this forum like, people are just a bunch of whinging, negative bastards no matter what, sucking the joy out of coming on here and supporting the club. If people can't see this is just our new Perez, Karelse & Caig type keeper, basically a senior goalkeeper on the books in case there's an injury to Harper or Krul who can step up to the bench, they want shot tbh. Said a few hours ago I hoped any keeper we signed was a random back-up keeper rather than someone like Green who'd have been signed to be number 1, and here it is. But fuck me, this thread has summed up the forum for me, just fuck off. See you then. My anger is based on the impending sale of Harper. If that doesn't happen, I won't give a shit about Ginger Nuts.

ponsaelius Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Honestly couldn't give a shit if we're fucking Harper off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I came on here on the off chance that a left back was signed since I last checked at 4 o'clock, and I find this. Never heard of him, but we need 3 keepers and seeing as Forster has gone out on loan I don't see the problem with this signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Ahmed Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Don't have an issue with this Forster has gone, Harper is ancient and probably has injury problems so it makes sense BUT obviously people are going to be pissed off because right now we a left back and striker are a MUST Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdckelly Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 I'd much preferred we kept Fraser Forster who, to me, has proved himself a decent keeper despite a couple of hiccups pre-season but good luck to this kid. Needs to lose the lower league haircut though. Interesting to here whats going on with Harper mind bearing in mind Caulkins comments earlier. On Forster, looks like its both he wants to play 1st team football and after looking at him in pre season Pardew decided that Krul is the one he wants to use. It was inevitable one of Forster or Krul would go, no way would either one of them been happy to just sit on the bench. As for Harper god knows, would have been happy enough to leave him as the backup unless what injury's he's had in the last year have taken their toll on his ability Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Why are people upset about this? Because we halted all other transfer negotiations to complete the deal. Oh and ruined Fosters career. That's the crux of it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Has anybody actually gave an opinion on how good a goalkeeper he actually is? Colocho? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really not hard to work out. I find it quite amusing rather than annoying btw. We're laughably clueless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did it with others so why not him. Just seems odd IMO. Personally I reckon he'll be a decent keeper too & good luck to him. RE all the kicking off: The speed this has gone through compared to the dallying elsewhere hasn't exactly helped. I'm not pro/con this lad coming in either way btw, much like most of the people we're linked with these days I've not heard of him, but seeing as how we've done this properly - one in, one out compared to the fucking about in other positions is obviously going to grind a few gears.

jdckelly Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Erm, may be out of touch here...but Forster hasn't been sold has he? Loan, but tbh I think thats it for him here, Pardew had a look at both Krul and Forster and obviously prefers Krul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 Erm, may be out of touch here...but Forster hasn't been sold has he? "A year-long loan from Newcastle United, subject to final registration, with Celtic having an option to buy the player." - Celtic FC. Think that's him as good as gone tbh.

Guest Posted August 17, 2011 Share Posted August 17, 2011 It's like the Obertan thread all over again. People just saying he is s*** based on nowt. And he is clearly a backup anyway. We go down to ten-men in a Premier League game, I'd much sooner someone with experience come in for half an hour than say Soderberg or Alnwick this season. It's just pathetic man. No way were Forster or Harper going to sit here as 3rd choice when even 2nd choice is probably not good enough for them, so we needed a new keeper in the squad.
