toontownman Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Clement #Grenier has rejected a move to #Newcastle. Playmaker insulted at #NUFC’s offer, his agent has told Le 10 Sport. (via @RBairner) You wonder how f***ing s*** it must have been And some still deny we put in bids just to say we tried.... maddening tbh, it's not exactly like we haven't heard it before in relation to our transfers. It's funny how they don't quite make it. Exactly.. JFK "Shit, cunt, fuck we have to bid again.. but its really close, they might accept it?" Ashley "Oh Joe you have a lot to learn, we still have the wages.. always a way out.." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 What was Grenier insulted by exactly? With no inside knowledge whatsoever, I would say the transfer fee and wages we offered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 What was Grenier insulted by exactly? With no inside knowledge whatsoever, I would say the transfer fee and wages we offered. Are wages even discussed before a bid is accepted? I'm speaking from a position of ignorance of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandamninator Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'm no expert on European football, but, would I be right in saying that there is more than one midfielder for sale across the continent ? Suuuuurrrrrreeeee there is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 He's probably just turned us town because he thinks we're a shower of s**** who are going nowhere fast? Almost certainly this combined with the fact that we probably offered him a smallish wage compared to wht he would get at a better PL club or in Spain/Germany. Why would a player who is highly-rated come to a club like Newcastle United when there is more than a 50/50 chance he could go elsewhere in the summer...? The lack of ambition stories will undoubtedly have travelled to France.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
merlin Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 JK out.....it's the only way this club will ever go forward. Ashley is the one who we need out, he goes and the whole stinking lot of them go with him. To think our season tickets are paying JK's wages. That's a VERY good reason NOT to buy one....

nufcjb Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 So this want is definitely not going through based on what his agent is rumoured to have said? I would say we didnt stand a chance anyways. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 11am: "NUFC is closed for business" passed to SSN 7pm: Fringe player loaned to League 1/SPL 11pm: "Oh shit, we really did our best" -- Really glad I'm working a double shift tomorrow. Can't be arsed F5-ing the whole day in blind hope. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Brazilianbob Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I suspect this is due to the rumour that Arsenal may make a late bid for Grenier. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDT Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Cabaye was a massive pull in getting the other French players across, I think we'll struggle to attract French players of that quality without him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebellious Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Delete if this has been posted already. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/newcastle-transfers-clement-greniers-agent-3095318#.UutUq62YaUk "The conditions of his departure would not have allowed Clement to flourish. He would have arrived at Newcastle, not as Clement Grenier, but as Yohan Cabaye’s replacement. "I have the utmost respect for the quality of Cabaye, who deserves everything that has happened to him. Is Clement really worth half of Yohan Cabaye? "All these reasons led us to decline the offer of Newcastle, the conditions of the deal did not seem fair to me vis-à-vis Clement." What a load of crap. Every player in one way or another joins a club to replace someone. As for fees that's crap too, they are basically saying they want all of the Cabaye money.

Optimistic Nut Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Cabaye was a massive pull in getting the other French players across, I think we'll struggle to attract French players of that quality without him. On the other hand it could make them think of us as a good stepping stone to the one Cabaye's just earned himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebellious Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Polite way of saying we have no ambition tbh. The bit in the article where he says Lyon are on the up, stops short of saying we are happy just to stay in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 If that is true, then he won't be coming. End of. Move on to the next target (if applicable).

nufcjb Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Was saying for all clubs in general. Anyone who gets through that door at SJP today would just watch from the stands tbh. Pardew would just say he had no time to experiment with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
