Jimbo 133 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 SAM TO CASH IN EXCLUSIVE By Ray Ryan SAM ALLARDYCE will be given around £40million to rebuild Newcastle yet his first signing is likely to cost nothing. The ex-Bolton chief will be unveiled as Toon boss within the next few days. He has agreed to replace Glenn Roeder and been promised a war chest to launch the Geordies into the top five. Allardyce will get £15m up front and can re-invest cash generated by sales. I understand Toon will listen to offers for Kieron Dyer, Scott Parker, Emre and Oba Martins — and that could generate a further £25m to invest. Rejected Yet Big Sam's first signing is likely to be striker Mark Viduka. The Aussie star is out of contract and has so far rejected a new deal at Middlesbrough, so would cost nothing. Allardyce told Toon chairman Freddy Shepherd at a meeting on Friday in London that he will take the reins. Yet the club refuse to comment publicly until the deal is finally complete. Shepherd is acutely aware his attempts at landing his previous top managerial targets backfired spectacularly at the last minute when he was rejected by both Steve Bruce and Martin O'Neill. But Newcastle are hoping to officially unveil Allardyce as their new manager by Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Was hoping it was going to say Ben Haim, but I'd be more than happy with Viduka. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInspiration 1 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Viduka would be a great signing on a free. He's scored plenty of goals this season and is a very talented striker who could make goals also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bombadil 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Assuming for a second it's true, that would be £12m plus compensation for Allardyce, £40m for new players and a fair bit of money for Allardyce's new backroom staff - where would all the money come from?

FS always backs his managers [/leazes] I would be amazed if that figure is anywhere near the real figure. I guess it includes the £9m for Owen though.

Bombadil 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 True, I misread the article. £15m up front plus cash from player sales. That sounds far more realistic. I wouldn't mind if we sold Dyer as long as we can still get good money for him. £80,000 a week, FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

England squad player adds on a few million and all that. Martins could be £15m+. We just signed him for 10m and he's had a decent season scoring goals so I don't see why not. So then between £0-5m for Emre and Dyer. No? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be far off that figure in my opinion: Martins £10m Parker £4m Emre £3m Dyer £3m £20m would be a realistic return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 £10m for Parker? This is Newcastle we're talking about. Who was the last player we sold for anything like the amount we paid for them? We'd get £4m for Parker, £3m for Emre, £10m for Martins and £2m for Dyer. Tops. EDIT: Great minds Jimbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd get £4m for Parker, £3m for Emre, £10m for Martins and £2m for Dyer. Tops. We have Big Sam now (or soon). He'll sort it out. And I did say up to £10m for Parker. We signed him for £6.5m and, although he has his doubters on here, the rest of the Premiership thinks he's been great for us. We got £5m for Jenas (who's now being rumoured with a £10m(!) move to Everton) so I'm sure we could get more for Parker. I'd also expect to make a profit on Oba if he was sold.

If this were true (getting rid), than why not; Parker 6m Emre 3m Martins 11m Dyer 6m I don't want Martins to go but hey, Big Sam has his own ideas, and if it means selling these four, than 25m is not unrealistic.

Brock Manson 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Not sure whether I want to see Martins sold or not. His touch is absolutely terrible, but he has the ability to be a very good player in the future. Hopefully a manager who seems to have a clue could get more out of him rather than selling him at the first opportunity... Wouldn't mind seeing Parker go with Nolan and Ben Haim joining.
