Dave Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/376300/Alan-Pardew-insists-Newcastle-will-be-active-in-the-transfer-market-this-summer Alan Pardew insists Newcastle will be active in the transfer market this summer THE STORM clouds are gathering but bullish boss Alan Pardew last night forecast brighter times lie ahead for Newcastle. The ailing Magpies head for Arsenal tonight bidding to avoid a sixth straight defeat - an alarming slump which probably won't threaten their hopes of a top half finish but have turned thousands of fans against the manager. Pardew, who returns to the dug-out for the first time since his headbutting shame at Hull on March 1, insists the recent run paints a false picture of the Toon's state of health. "From where I sit as Newcastle manager, looking at the club, I think it's in a strong position," he said. "These short-term results over the last five games have really put a bit of a stain on it. "We need to remove that stain by getting a result and then we can look forward to a good summer." Pardew pinpoints the sale of Yohan Cabaye as the catalyst for decline but still defends the club for failing to replace him in January. And he is adamant Newcastle will be prominent spenders in the next transfer window. "We came close but not close enough for our fans," he added, "They wanted someone over the line as a replacement for Cabaye but we just couldn't manage to do it. We ran out of time but it wasn't for the want of trying." Such is the scepticism of the Toon Army about Pardew and Mike Ashley's regime, some believe the manager's tendency of talking up the club's youth team suggests Newcastle will be promoting from within rather than splashing the cash. Pardew, however, firmly rejects that notion. "When you start talking about what's underneath, there's an assumption that we're not going to sign players but that's definitely not the case," he said. "And I want to make that point strongly. We have investment in the summer that we can make and we're going to make it. "But the truth of it is that in two or three years' time, we've got six or seven kids here who are going to make an impact." Newcastle picked up just one win and scored just two goals while Pardew was either banished from the stadium or the technical area. He had briefly pondered the idea of a self-imposed touchline ban but now claims the players will be better off with him being a visible presence again. He added: "It's been tough being away from my team. "It was a real punishment. I'm not saying I agree with all the punishment but I accepted it. "I had said I would look at whether I'm best watching from the stand but I'll go back to the dug-out. "And I'll be better on the sidelines than I have been." Arsenal target Loic Remy and Mathieu Debuchy who came on as subs against Swansea last week will start along with fellow French international Moussa Sissoko, who has recovered from injury quicker than expected. Pardew believes their returns quashes theories that all three had effectively given up on their club season and protecting themselves for the World Cup. "They are all very much aware they have to finish the season strongly not just for their individual ambitions but for Newcastle. "We need to get at least one big result before the end of the season." Seems legit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minhosa Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 If he's judging the standard of kids coming through on the basis of the latest lot (Dummett, Sammy etc) then we might as well pack up and fuck off home now. As a club, we've not developed 6-7 'first team capable' kids over the last 20 years and yet now, all of a sudden, we've been gifted a bunch of per-pubescent world beaters? Get to fuck. I'll put my cock on the block and say we'll be lucky to find 2 that are any good at first team level. And, by any good, I mean capable of performing to the equivalent level of a senior pro more often than not. As always with this heinous cunt, he's buying time. This statement is on the never, never. Easy to make and hard to measure. Arsehole. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not fit to lace Cabaye's boots, and an arrogant and brainless b****** as well. Three years in, it looks like Pardew is finally being allowed to build the team he's been dreaming of. Next season is going to be f***ing horrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben-nufc Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 He really doesn't half talk some absolute bollocks. He goes on about the last 5 games/short-term results as though they're the sole reason people are on his back, seemingly forgetting last season and post Boxing Day this season. The Cabaye replacement excuse doesn't wash with me in the slightest, we knew in the summer he wanted out, we kept hold of him knowing full well he would be off in 6 months or at best a year. To say we ran out of time to find a replacement is just ludicrous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 "But the truth of it is that in two or three years' time, we've got six or seven kids here who are going to make an impact." Yeah, they'll make a f***ing impact alright. They'll relegate us when they have to play every week because we haven't replaced all the real, actual competent players who've been flogged. And if that ringpiece mentions Cabaye once more, I'll do the world a favour and fucking end him. You knew Cabaye was going in August, you utter tool. Stop pretending you failed to replace him because you only had a couple of days because that's nothing but an outright lie. Not that outright lies are something that Alan has a problem with, of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I'm not sure if i like Shelvey or not. He was highly rated with Charlton, i thought he was a laughing stock at Liverpool, sold for what i thought was an outrageous transfer fee, and now for Swansea has had a mixture of quality and calamity. I don't laugh at him as much now but not sure i'm at the point where i want him here, even though he's probably still learning and improving. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 It's pretty obvious to most people on here that if we are going back to signing British player, it won't be the quality players, it will be end of contractors like Colback or never-quite-made-it types like Shelvey. I'm not saying they are bad players, but I don't expect any club with ambition to be competing for our British targets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, it'll be Stoke under Pulis type signings but with less cost and higher potential resale value attached. Why it has to be categorically one type of signing (British or French) and not a mixture of both makes no sense in the customary NUFC manner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
