rocksammy Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 It's over, for good. Grenier's agent just confirmed it. Link http://www.le10sport.com/football/mercato/exclu-mercato-ol-pourquoi-grenier-a-dit-non-a-newcastle134235 Read that as we only offered half of Cabayes wages even though he was the replacement. That's what they are upset about, not sure if this is over yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 With an agreement to sell Cabaye in January, you'd have thought the club would identify players who actually want to join. How did we let it get to this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 You live in Manchester? So basically you can't be arsed to commute. I'm not gonna bother with this nonsense other than saying I was a season ticket holder from '93 to 2013 and was happy to commute further when I thought we had an ounce of ambition.

NewJerseyMag Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Are people crazy? We only a few points from premiership safety, what would be the point of signing anybody and spending money? This is Ashley's world. All these noises they are putting out there, no doubt Pardew would had been instructed to talk about Grenier in the press. To whet the appetite and get some season ticket renewals. And no doubt most of the soft headed fan base of ours will lap it up as usual. A lot will, but judging by the mood on here and who I come into contact with a lot won't including people who have been going for years like myself - enough is enough and I take no pleasure at all from saying that I stopped going after the 0-3. I've barely even been tempted to go back and I'm amazed that point of view seems to represent a tiny minority. I understand that thousands have nothing in their lives beyond 19 games a football every season but still getting 50K+ every game with this level of contempt and lack of ambition... People are either incredibly stupid or incredibly weak. SOOOPA FAN I agree with him. All it would take is 3-4 games with an empty stadium. However, it appears that this is beyond most people, for whatever reason.... and the club knows it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, with the new game system developed by Rémi Garde , Clement is now demonstrate that it has a richer palette in his game, he proves over the matches.

However , as an agent of Clement Grenier, I also have to tell me : Clément really worth twice cheaper than Yohan Cabaye ?
