The one thing I will say, the Chronicle seem to be pushing this one and aren't being overly negative about our chance. It suggests to me that Ryder has been given indications Newcastle are fairly confident.

 

Since when was Ryder privy to any inside info on the club's dealings?

He's the club media department's mouth piece. Inside info it is not, he just report what he's told by the club off the record - which is just as likely to be bollocks as it is true.

Think they're trying to get us to up our bid by reporting interest from other clubs.

 

It's already been reported he most wants to come to Newcastle and so still hopeful of this one.

It is absolutely fucking rubbish this one like. Common knowledge we're gonna get £20m for Mitro come what may. Argue these down quickly to £24m or something and be done with it. For fucks sake.

It's what it depends on really. Rafa doesn't want to let him go before a replacement comes in or a replacement is guaranteed to come in before by most accounts.

Regardless we'll get that for him though, there's surely little doubt about that. Seems such an easy deal to make happen and yet...

Didn't he just come from there on loan?

 

We monitored then stepped aside to let them sign him in the first place.

 

Epic memory! That's what I was thinking of, then.

Christ, we're useless. They finished 9th in the Bundesliga but we've no chance. As soon as we're in competition with anyone at all, we just give up. Can't compete with any bugger these days.

 

It's not about competing with anyone is it, it's when we know the asking price we bid under it on purpose. It's ridiculously transparent now and just fucking tiresome, why even bid when you know you're not being serious, the 'we tried' bit i suppose.

Nowt to get season tickets renewed like a failed bid for a striker not many have heard of.

 

Wasn’t a failed bid at the time was it?

Probably. Can't fully remember tbh.

 

It wasn’t, it was a rumoured £27m bid. Not failed.

If fans thought the club were making bids of even 1m for a player they would cream their pants at the thought of us actually willing to spend something. They have previous for releasing shite to get fans onside...

Yep the old double whammy of a fee that's a shade high and, oh no, another team wants him. Other clubs must laugh their bollocks off when we're credited with an interest in a player they're after.
