I'd say it's likely to be higher than that when you consider his transfer fee and the fact bigger clubs were sniffing around for him. With all due respect to SAFC, why would he accept £25K p/w when he could have held out for Liverpool or Spurs? Can you think of another reason why we wouldn't have shown an interest? I'm afraid I can't. We signed Marveaux who could have gone to Liverpool..

Using one of those as back up is just about acceptable but both, eugh!

These stories will keep coming out with this lad. He was moaning about it on twitter earlier. If he wasn't so talented he would be getting the Nile Ranger treatment by now.

Yeah i'm fairly sure I remember we signed them when I was on holiday (and we were linked with David Dunn for £10m), the forum went down and I couldn't find it so I emailed Cheyne (or thinking about it, it might have been Tanzo, sorry Tanzo) and they linked me to TT.

He must look like he's stepped straight off his yacht in the Hamptons! After doing the kids entertainment

He gets a lot of enjoyment out of it, you're just putting a negative spin on it

Done and won't do.

Jesus, Wordplay has some awful fashion sense

As soon as this dropped through the door I bet his face lit up "Right, to the forum, this will prove them wrong!". Like any news article about a 'Brown' person being convicted of a crime "Right, this proves 'they' are all criminals". Sad life really.

This one or the original? Signed up to this one because I was on the last one before the succesfull merger. Signed up to the last one because Cheyne sent me a link after the one I was using before my holiday was removed

Sorry I was away Want me to start a corresponding thread on N-O and if our under 25's percentage is under the 30 odd percent on here then there is some desperate backtracking to be had? I joined here around the time we signed Bramble and Viana I think, I was on another forum just before that but it got closed down. Think they had the link on .com but decided to remove it.

Take the foil off no seriously, hope you are feeling better soon.

Finally starting to click!

Spot on.

I also agree with what Chez has said, what I do think however is that when someone on twitter is 'unmasked' as a blatant bullshitter they should no longer be given the attention they crave. People who haven't come across said wankers before will only get their hopes up and as I have said before, I think the wankers are most likely mackems having a little giggle at every Newcastle fan that shows excitement at their shite. We'll no doubt be batted back with "well they got this one right..." or something of that ilk. Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Especially if the one they 'got right' has been reported in the media for weeks before hand. I'll give it a crack, we will sign Taylor and Erdnic before the transfer window ends, I have a mate high up in NUFC, I can't say who but he is a trusted source and has no reason to lie. Lets see if I can be ITK too

I fully understand if you or others dont want to get involved in gossip about possible incomings. Thats fair enough and you can avoid the papers, talk sport etc etc and ignore the odd post or two on the internet but basically in close season I dont think its a big deal and imo has always been part of the fun of close season. We might get this one, we've been linked with that one..... etc etc And yes Douglas broke the Marveaux transfer (I think) but Cabaye was broken on Twitter and Nolan to West Ham was broken on Toontastic! I saw the Cabaye thing on a forum before it was on twitter (probably came from said forum but no doubt an 'ITK' was claiming it as their own). The story came from the French press and I had a little dig at Douglas about it when he was building up their big story for the next day I think I remember the Nolan one being on here... I never said anything about avoiding papers etc.. just ignoring the idiots on twitter, ESPECIALLY the ones like Warris who surely must have lost any sort of credibility when he photoshopped the Tiote picture but it seems some are so desperate for any shit to be true they will continue to follow the likes of him no matter what he does. He could honestly just hold his hands up and say "Yeah I am a mackem and I have been making it all up to piss you mags off" and people would still post his next NUFC related tweet saying "Well you never know.."

The problem is CT, even when someone on twitter is proven to be full of shit (Cwarr07 or whatever he is called for example) you still quote their tweets with something like 'well you never know'.. The best place for Newcastle news is checking foreign google from what I have seen, there's a lad who posts on another forum that just has a check of french google (or something like that) and he finds out these stories before the English press as he did with Cabaye. Twitter will obviously have the odd person doing similar, they aren't ITK and normally don't act as so. The problem with Twitter is for every one of these tweeters (?) there are 10 dickheads making stuff up, people like Warris tend to go with stories that have been reported in the press for weeks/months but add "Done deal" to it, then backpeddle or just ignore when it turns out it isn't a "done deal". Apparently he blocks anyway who questions him too Would much rather go with the journalists even if they do get beaten by the avid foreign press reader at times. Douglas was the one who brokes the Marveaux story, funnily enough Warris and nufc1892 (or whatever he is called) didn't know a thing about it, could be something to do with it not being recently reported in the press that we weren't interested.

He's full of shit, not going to offer to eat my own bollocks or owt but this lad is a proven liar. Don't you remember where he photoshopped a players head onto a picture of Tiote when he signed? Was only a couple of weeks back, isn't that proof enough!?

Two weeks in hospital with one testicle lodged in the throat, congrats Paul

I'll hold you to that mind! Yeah about that eat my own bollocks thing....

Happy Birthday!

This was a story about a mate but funny none the less. He went out on an all dayer with his lass and a few mates, they were staying at her parents house. For some reason (no Idea why) him and his lass ended up sleeping in her mums bed. Anyway during the night he managed to shit himself, in the bed. That's something you would never get over, they did stay together for a while after. To be honest, him or one other mate are the first two people you would think this would happen to if asked. Scruffy fucker.

Doesn't make any sense at all but yeah, makes complete sense. it probably makes perfect sense to anybody with half a brain. Tell you what Gejon, on the basis that Mike Ashley is still owner of NUFC I'll bet you that Liverpool finish above NUFC next season [as you think they are doing it wrong and we are doing it right] ? And this time next year I'll give you the option of double or quits for the season after too ? That would be after 6 years of Mike Ashleys "plan" by then ? Yes or no ? Well you compare a player that cost £1m with one that cost £20m, both who play in completely different positions anyway. Why didn't you go with Tiote? Is it because it would have made your stupid comment redundant? Of course not you fucking moron. How many times have we finished above Liverpool in the last 20 years? Where did I ever say Liverpool's whole transfer policy was wrong? I even said I was jealous of the two forwards they signed in January. I picked one transfer I think they paid well over the odds on, I have pointed this out already. Just how thick are you really? Honestly it really is like hitting my head against a brick wall but instead of it making me thicker you seem to be having the negative affects on the old brain cells.
