Guest Heneage Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I must admit I'm baffled as to why those involved with United for Newcastle even think it will work. It's like watching Icarus falling to the ground and thinking 'we just need more wax'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
durhamunigeordie Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Have you seen how many LB's they have in their squad? Agreed. He's off to Liverpool instead. You can be such a prick at times. You impressively manage it on a constant basis. You don't like the owners, you think the club is going to spontaneously combust and all good will turn to evil. We get it. Now please, for the love of god, shhhhh. I've sat on the fringes of this forum for 5 years and only NE5 surpassed the tedious predictability of the rehashed shite you post on the football boards. You are a walking advert to ignore the entire United for Newcastle campaign which is a real shame. And do you have any idea what I do off these boards? How much work I've put into the campaign? Said it before, and I'll say it again. My views on this forum do not represent the views of United For Newcastle. Just you? Do the other lads do nowt? Cos you seem to be constantly bleating on about how much you do, and that smacks of negating what the others do iyam. Only in the context of this particularly quote and not coming down on any particular side, it seems reasonable to defend a personal attack ('you') with a personal response ('I') Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he does work hard for the campaign but is it a case that it's his baby that the other two help on, or are they there as three people running the group together?

UV Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Well, you're a public figure now, albeit a small one, but still, you're known to be linked with a group that wants to be taken seriously in its efforts to establish a connection between Newcastle United and its fans. However, you'll post your opinion, yes separately, that sometimes conflicts with the overall message United for Newcastle is trying to put across. So even though its not linked directly with what United for Newcastle is trying to do, people know that someone within the group thinks differently and might not want 100% similar actions that they're going for. Yes, it sucks to be in a position like that where you have to, perhaps, censor yourself, and hold yourself back from speaking freely on the internet, on a forum, but its not as if this is a music forum, and you're talking about Greenday, or whatever. You're on a Newcastle United forum, which is your target group, talking about Newcastle United and your personal feelings/opinions on players, contracts, managers and ownership issues. They might be your views, and not United for Newcastle's, like you mention, but as I said above, you've made no attempt to distance yourself from United for Newcastle (and why would you), and you've made us all aware how much you're a part of it. What I'm trying to say is, sadly, if you're part of United for Newcastle, and you want people to take it seriously, certainly on this forum, then perhaps being so open, and free with your views and opinions, might not be an option anymore. Knowing you have this view, can we now assume all of your posts are the official FA stance on any subject? It's sad that the FA is anti-free speech.

BlueStar Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 If we are going to sell him, can we get it over and done with and start looking at getting a replacement and investing the money please, rather than dicking about humming anf harring over contracts and bids and then being stuck playing James Perch there for ages?

Disco Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 £13.5m would be lunacy tbh. If, and its the always if, the money got reinvested we'd mad not to accept & I love Jose Enrique as much as any Newcastle fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 A player is as worth as much as someone's prepared to pay. £13.5m would be a fair price for arguably our best footballer; i'd be disappointed to see him go for less than double-figures, such is his importance in our squad.

wormy Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I don't care if there's only a year left. I echo these sentiments. Needs to be at least double figures. I think I'd rather hold onto him for the year and lose him for fuck all if we can't even get £10m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may be good. But he's not our best or most important player. If we're offered £13.5 mill we should sell him. We cannot reject that offer, gambling on that he will sign a new contract. He also earns around £60 a week. So we could bring in a good replacement and a backup (if Ferguson doesn't cope or is placed on lw) for the money we receive..

Yorkie Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I'd say Tiote's our most important player. I think Jose's the most technically gifted plus he's still got so many years ahead of him. Jury's still out, to some degree, on HBA. Anything less than double-figures for Jose would be a disappointment. You haven't got the first clue what he earns, btw.

Tiote and Barton are our most important players. Since Tiote's debut, we've not won one single game with him and Barton injured/suspended. Also LB is by default a less vulnerable position that DM.

Punk77 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 PL-games, forgot to mention that.. . 60k my ass No, you can kiss my ass.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1187448/Meltdown-Newcastle-8217-s-71m-wage-nightmare--stay.html And I quote: " HARD TO SHIFT: JOEY BARTON £60,000 — who would be mad enough to buy him? JOSE ENRIQUE £60,000 — cost £6m, which was £6m too much. FABRICIO COLOCCINI £60,000 — he was frighteningly bad. XISCO £50,000 — an expensive flop." Have read a couple of other articles too that state he earns that amount. But there are some that mention £50 000. So he's probably on around 50-60 a year..
