Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Douglas, Sakho and Tomkins. Spot the odd one out. Bit of a fluff generic "XXX are interested in YYY" article, though, using previously seen names. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Linked to bloody Tomkins again It just seems a recycled, nothing to see here, article to me. No quotes, abuse of "XXXX understands", "apparently", names recycled from previous links... Waste of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Would be surprised to see us to go into next season with Coloccini, Mbiwa, Taylor and Douglas in the squad. That's a lot of outlay on one position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 6ft 4 - done deal good point IP, you'd have to assume willo is gone and they believe taylor isn't up to a season anymore (which is true) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lot of outlay on one position. Well we already have three of them. And two play at once. I get what you mean though, it does seem too good to be true.

Disco Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Hmmm go for a free or Sakho/Tomkins who will cost market value...decisions, decisions. Ryder tweeted y'day Douglas is on holiday 'til next week btw. Hardly the pick of clubs if it's just those 4 in for him mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably think Colo isn't staying longterm too, gotta tie down a partnership going into the future if the chance presents itself. I thought teams were barred from having more than two senior natural CBs in the squad anyway? That's how it works over here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Only thing with Douglas, if he's as good as we're led to believe, why has no-one else stepped in and signed him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 @MsiDouglas 1m Well that's interesting.

Skeletor Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 http://tyneandwear.sky.com/newcastleunited/article/70603/transfer-talk-douglas-world-cup-dream-could-bring-him-to-newcastle Da Silveira told Sky Tyne and Wear: "At the moment there is nothing official, we were in Europe last week and have some options. "There is interest in England, Germany, Turkey and Russia so we are going to discuss all the opportunities." A former agent of Douglas told us that his current representatives are "crazy", and asking clubs for signing-on fees in excess of £4 million. But Da Silveira says money is not everything. "His dream is to play in the Dutch national team at the World Cup in Brazil," he said. "We need to find a very good club. This is the reason we are waiting."
