Pardew hinting an offer has been made. Wish he would shut the fuck up tbh and just get on with it! SSN Pardew waiting on striker moveNewcastle chief hoping for quick deal By Graeme Bailey - Tweet me: @skygraemebailey. Last Updated: May 27, 2011 11:29am The Magpies chief is anxious to bolster his options, having been unable to sign a replacement for £35million Andy Carroll following his January move to Liverpool. Now with money to spend, Pardew has a host of options and he has made a number of enquires. He has confirmed that he is currently waiting on one deal, with many sources claiming that it is for Kevin Gameiro of Lorient, although he is also interested in the likes of Gervinho and Demba Ba amongst others. France international Gameiro has made it clear he wants to move to Spain, with Valencia his preferred destination, and they have rekindled their interest this week. But Pardew is hoping money will talk and that Newcastle's willingness to pay around €10million could see them strike a deal with Lorient. Interest "We've given a player a deadline this week, so that'll be interesting," said Pardew. "We are pitching for a striker that we bid for - that's been reported. We're hopeful on that but we'll have to wait and see. There's no real feedback from the club on that. And we're pitching for another couple of players. "If I was a Newcastle fan, we're making the right noises on that front. I'm sure the fans are disappointed about the Joey Barton situation but we are trying to take the club forward by signing players." With the French season due to finish this weekend, Newcastle are expected to have a strong presence across the Channel to make final checks on a number of targets - including Gameiro and Gervinho. Gameiro, meanwhile, has been told by French boss Laurent Blanc that he does need to move. "Gameiro's qualities will be revealed when he changes his club. We don't know if he has international level yet. I believe he has it, but to show it he has to play," Blanc said. .

Best Salesman in our office is 41 and tbh he absolutely kicks arse. It actually benefits him having the experience to deal with rejection handling and people trust him because he is a bit older than the rest of the sales lot!

Gosling said: “I think it is going to be quite good for me in a way that no-one will really think about me. I saw that the manager said I would be like a new signing and I suppose I am." http://www.sundaysun.co.uk/sport/newcastle...79310-27952946/ Heres the proof if we ever need it

I can imagine Pardew saying that for both Ben Arfa and Gosling to try and justify not spending the WONGA! He used that for gosling before so surely can't use it again!

Sick of getting me hopes up. Once a week we have a thread with Ambani's name in and it never comes to anything. GOD DAMN YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!

Is that like the job Homer Simpson has? Much worse than Homer's plant. There's no doughnuts allowed. I once spent ten years working for S&N at the Tyne Brewery. That was a cracking job. No doughnuts Well I had Broon ale on tap for ten years as well as other beers/lagers so I can't do too much complaining! Talking of Brown Ale on tap, using the more literal meaning mind you anyone know anywhere that still does it? I remember you could get it in Sam Jacks about 5 years ago but not seen it on tap anywhere for ages!

Oh well that's convenient if your not interested you are guaranteed not to have done anything wrong at all. Shame on West Ham (who have no reason to lie about sunderland whatsoever) for making up you lot have tapped up one of their players who has no chance of staying with them anyway when obviously if quinny says you are not interested the matter is closed!

SSN: West Ham United have reported Sunderland to the Premier League over an alleged illegal approach for Demba Ba, Sky Sports News understands. The Senegal international striker looks set to depart Upton Park this summer, following the Hammers' relegation from the Premier League. Ba is attracting the interest of a host of clubs, as revealed by skysports.com earlier this month, but now West Ham are claiming Sunderland have taken their reported interest too far. West Ham have made a complaint to the Premier League, although Sunderland have now seemingly distanced themselves from making a bid. Newcastle and Aston Villa are also amongst those clubs believed to be interested in landing Ba.

Sky Sports news have now rehashed the same story saying he has defo signed but nothing on .co.uk and as far as i am concerned until its on there it is purely speculation!

tbf to the lad, i am never confident but he always sticks it in the inside side netting and gives the keeper no chance at all!

Henrik Larsson is a prime example, he scored 242 goals for celtic following a double leg fracture. I know it's scottish league but still impressive!

I am not a smoker and even I think this is an absolute joke!!!

I think my point has been missed. He could have had anything he ever dreamed of as a lad He said himself that was all he ever wanted, the newcastle number 9 shirt. It's not like he would be skint either. My point is he was the one with a contract and he could have stayed if he wished. I am not saying he should have stayed either but it is extremley hypocritical to say all I want is 9 shirt and next minute I am leaving cos they want me too even though I have a 5 year contract! I don't understand the people who are feeling sorry for him (apart from the fact he is having to live with those scouse scumbags)

I like that as an idea, here we go then... Guessing Kat Slater or whatever she's called?? Gutted i didn't think that was very obvious but fair play

I like that as an idea, here we go then...

As I satrted this thread can i get in on this action. I will direct the ladies...I am assuming we will be using ladies???

He will have a sale value tho, anyone you get on a free will have an increased value obviously even if he goes back to championship after a year for £1m if he is shit, 20k a week wages make him a completely free player and therefore not a gamble. If he is good you keeo him and if not you get rid and don't lose anything, I see it as a sensible deal taking into account slow progression. It is massively important mind that like you said he is the first of a couple or few and not the only one we are hanging out hats on next year!

She seems great!!!!! The second Katy Perry one is horrendous. Pretty girl but dark hair is only real similarity going. How the hell do these guys make any money, surely they can't be making a full living out of doing this!

He also said continental Europe, is wales classed as continental Europe I don't think so! I wreckon this is good as a second striker, free transfer and decent enough and he is defo not the international central midfielder from continental europe which would indicate some serious early transfer movement which can only be good in persuading others to stay. It is a statement of intent building eaarly and having a full pre season with everyone imho

Don't no any but gonna watch it anyway, at least the accents might be better than some of them on Vera!

HAHA, I love it, I do think this as Tony Blair takes the biscuit mind! http://www.splitting-images.com/

Gary Linekar Even Better, looks more like Crouchy!

Colin Firth

Apparently this is Lewis Hamilton Lewis Hamilton and look, here comes along Fabio Capello Fabio Capello Closely followed by his England Captain John Terry John Terry http://www.lookalikes.info/our-lookalikes/sports Plenty more on there which are highly amusing! Sorry photo's wouldn't work so I had to put links!

He signed for Espanyol last month on a pre contract agreement for the new season!
