Guest Realist Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 For a club that spend years researching players, it's a shame we don't find out how much they're likely to cost. lmao forever if you pay retail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the price? Can we do it? Can we afford? If we can’t we go somewhere else. “We want the best quality players, and at the moment we have three possible transfers actively being pursued in terms of bids and trying to get a deal where the other club gets what they want and we get what we want.” Debuchy, Douglas and Anita?

I still think we'll make 2 out of the blue acquisitions plus Debuchy. Really is unlike us nowadays to conduct our transfer activity in public.

Hopefully so, although we do need a forward just it shouldn't be Carroll. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it did say "three players pursued on bids", and we've only bid for Debuchy, Carroll and Douglas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, it's a pretty good thing we've done. If every major sports team did something like this it would have a pretty big impact.

If we take Shola, give him some apples and put him on a bike hooked up to a generator the club can save massively on it's energy costs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to feed him apples though, and the current cost is a bit pricey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I have a confession and sincere apology to make. I put Debuchy, Carroll, Anita and Douglas into my Newcastle team in Fifa last Monday. Things have gone tit's up since, but do I take them out and risk them not coming at all. Humble apologies. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Anyone else pretty underwhelmed by Douglas? Wouldn't really care either way if we get him. This weight issue seems a bit unprofessional.

Can't say I've ever seen him play but either way, I'm not that fussed. We certainly need a CB this summer. Just don't think we should be fighting for him or overpaying (no way should he cost more than Debuchy). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
