TheInspiration 1 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 We just need someone who can put the ball in the net 20 times a season now. Luque isn't quite that person, but I am sure - should this be true, he's what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 What's his hamstrings like??? 18819[/snapback] Owens hamstrings aren't exactly bulletproof either are they? Few months with our physios and he won't even be going to the World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) Little bit about him on here. Still nothing on SSN or any other website that I can see! 18833[/snapback] Just noticed this on that site: Buy-out Clause: €72 million 18847[/snapback] All La Liga players have to have some form of buy-out fee in their contract; so the clubs generally just make it ridiculously high to prevent their players from being stolen on the cheap. I believe Ronaldinho's buy-out clause is somewhere in the region of €250,000,000... Edited August 25, 2005 by Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInspiration 1 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 And Newcastle United, should be referred to as Newcastle United as well. As should Leeds United, West Ham United etc. But I don't really care about them to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyhall 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 of course it wont be a wind up. sky would have checked their sources before printing the story. on the mackem board it is just some guy trying to act all hard.

Tom_NUFC 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 It's good news. Someone said about papering the cracks, well yes, maybe. It doesn't make everything alright, that's for sure, but we might as well have cracks and a striker in, than cracks and none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordiesned 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I'm not going to believe this until I see him signing. The Mackems managed to get the Koeller story onto just about every media outlet (including Sky Sports who even ran with it on SSN) and even on the holy grail, the bbc. The entire thing was made up after a group of 6 of them got together and put together a piece including made up quotes. The story on ITV teletext is nearly word for word what is on sky sports so their reporter could well just have been searching the net. I hope this is true but as I said I want to see him signing for us with my own eyes first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wor Al 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 In Luque we are signing a better player than Robert. Everybody is complaining about our lack of goals, rightly so, but we are also struggling to create chances. Owen will not score goals playing with our current players. So signing Luque would be as important as signing a striker. Hopefully if it comes off, Luque will be a fan's faviourite, I'm sure he will. Ref Earnshaw... ..why can't he get ahead of Campbell, Horsfield, Kamarra, Ellington and, more worringly...Kanu? I know HTT said that Robson likes to play with big target men. But IMO, that's not true. Last night Robson dropped Campbell and Horsfield for Kanu and Domensey Kamarra. Now.... those two players are not exactly big type centre forwards, are they?

Howaythetoon 0 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 Don't the SMB have a presenter on Sky who posts on there o reads it? I know a Mackem presents SSN sometimes and once mentioned in some SMB fanzine that he knows a few on the SMB. Could be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't his father, Rafael, his agent? edit: ah, the article says a plane for him and his father. Still ...

TheInspiration 1 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 What happened to Kanu? He used to be really good when he was young at Arsenal, now he's just a lazy sod who can't score goals anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
