When is Big Sam back from his holiday then?


Recommended Posts

Newcastle's new boss Sam Allardyce was assumed to be on the Aussie's trail, but a Magpies' source told the Sunday Sun: "Sam hasn't said a word to the chairman about Viduka .

 

"That's not to say he definitely isn't interested, but Sam is in France on a family holiday and doesn't expect to do any transfer business quickly.

 

 

I am really eager for us to get started with our recruiting as I am really looking forward to seeing what Sam's plans are ... looks like we won't be making moves for a little while yet though.  :(

 

Anyone know when he is back?

Remember though, he's not Roeder in the transfer market. He has scouts, contacts and whatnot placed around Europe. He'll have been doing scouting for Bolton since January (and possibly before that ie. the players he couldn't get in January), so he'll know exactly which players are good enough for us, which players that we need (LB, RB etc.) and which players he'll continue to scout etc. He's also pretty fast in the market, he won't need 2 months to sign a player for one position.

 

Hasn't he also said he expects to complete the majority of transfers by June 2nd? That gives him ample time tbh. That's a month and a half away!

 

We're in good hands people, relax!

he'll be on his mobile to players, agents and freddy non-stop while he gets a nice tan for the new season. nee worries man.

 

Exactly. The chances are that the players he's after are also on their holiday if they're British. Or alternatively, if they're playing overseas, they'll be finishing their league seasons soon - by which time Sam'll be back in this country.

 

Drama Queen!  ;)

Everyone on here is going on like Viduka is some kinda god, up there with the best of them...

 

Not really but he is a good player going on a free and who would make a big improvement to our squad.
