This is why I think Sheff Utd may yet still have a chance to stay up. Something's not right about the whole Tevez thing. Either they own him and they signed him legit or they didn't and they should lose points over it. Who the fuck do you make the cheque payable to?

Guest Moe-Ali Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Signing Michael Owen has been a mill stone round the neck of NUFC. If we can spoon him off for 9 million and get our 10 million compo, we could sign another proven goal scorer. One that doesn't come with baggage. Or we could keep him and buy a whole new back four and some new mids and maybe another striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I want him to stay, he's a fantastic footballer. Couldn't give a s*** whether he f****** hates the club or not tbh. This. What the hell has Owen actually done wrong? He's not said he hates the club, he's not said he wants away, he hasn't refused to play, when he's played for us, he's scored goals. It's actually quite ironic because people who say 'don't believe everything you read in the paper' have been influenced by what the papers have said about what Owen wants, he's never actually said himself 'I want to go', it's been the papers saying he wants to go. thank the f****** lord someone agrees with me. ive been saying this for ages but it seems everyone wants to think the worst of him. It's not hindsight, at the time I expressed reservations about signing a player who was literally begging one of the top clubs to take him instead. Nothing much has changed really. I rate Owen as the best when it comes to the art of goal-scoring but I don't want a player who would rather be somwhere else. Didn't then and still don't now.

If I was a player for Newcastle without any ties to the region I would actually consider 1. money and 2. playing time. Also its not as cut and dry with Owen. Martins would (probably) rather have signed for ManU than us when he left Inter but there is a sense with him (and Emre) that he has made up his mind - with Owen everyone is always waiting for the other shoe to drop and its really annoying.

Guest toon tone rudeboy Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 WHU get less than 10%. This is all I've found so far: http://sport.independent.co.uk/football/premiership/article2617382.ece Now the intention is to pair the two in a new-look strike-force with Carlos Tevez almost certain to leave the club once a fee is agreed with one of the clubs - primarily Real Madrid and Chelsea - who have registered an interest. It is thought that Tevez could cost as much as £32m. West Ham will not receive any of the transfer fee. Today it was stated that Tevez would be interested in a move to Arsenal if the rumours were to be believed. It also went on to say that if it came down between Real Madrid and Inter Milan, Tevez would prefer Inter. FYI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Some very interesting info in the chronicle today ... Owen pretty much appears to have a week to manufacture a move away, as Oliver says that if he returns to training next Friday then he will pretty much be certain to stay next season. He has been given a special pardon apparently so he doesn't have to come back to training with everyone else at the start of the week. Something fishy going on here. I think he might be close to a move which is why he has delayed his return to training. I think by next Friday he might very well be gone. According to Mr. Oliver we are indeed interested in Alan Smith if Owen or Martins leaves! He also says that Alan Smith has already turned down Borough. Something might very well be in the works as it appears the Alan Smith story was indeed true. I think Owen might be going the other way, and if anything we will probably be receivng the £3.5 million along with Smith for little Micky. *A lot of this is speculation I know, but just my feelings on the situation which I think might be worth discussing. So take a deep breath before responding. Thanks. Well I'll be damned ... Just been on the back pages of one of the papers tomorrow that Manchester United have offered Alan Smith and £4 million for that little toe rag Owen. I knew it I knew it I knew it I knew it I knew it I knew it I knew it I knew it!!! Exactly as I had presumed (see above). It was so freakin' obvious! Alan Smith has returned from holiday yesterday and voila! I knew once we didn't deny the move for Alan Smith and instead Alan Oliver said we would only get him if Owen/Martins left that Owen would very likely be going to Man U with Alan Smith coming this way. So we potentially have a situation where Owen might be replaced by Smith and Oba martins by Gudjohnsen. What do you guys think about this??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
