    Time for the truth lads,

    Players In
    Ben Arfa 5.75m
    Cabaye 4.5m
    Abeid FREE
    Ba FREE
    Marveaux FREE

    Total Spent 10.25m

    Players Out
    Carroll 35m
    Nolan 3.5m

    Total received 38.5

    Profit £28.25m

    Recent interviews with Pardew so far he has said that all the big signings, gameiro, gervinho, erdinc etc have stalled or fell through. He has went on to praise the other signings he has made most of which where on a free.

    Demba Ba failed a medical at stoke 6 months ago and made just 12 appearances for west ham. This signing was made and pushed through even with question marks over fitness to appease the fans wanting a striker.

    Marveaux hasn’t kicked a ball in 9 months and has been plagued with groin injuries throughout his career.

    Ben Arfa was a incredibly talented footballer but not many footballers retain that ability after a break like his.

    Cabaye is a good signing but premiership level is a lot higher than ligue 1.

    Abeid is for the future and wont play first team football this year. How many youngsters do we buy and say they have a bright future but never feature in the first team? Answer loads.

    Ashley will keep at least 25m of the remaining 28.25m left. We will sign one more player which will probably be Neil Taylor. The sooner we all wake up and realise this the better. He’s taking us for a ride again and because of these weak signings most of the 55, 000 who will be filling his pockets gain next year believe it.

    If we do make a top signing I will gladly be made to look like a fool but I WONT happen.

    By the way ive supported NUFC for 30 years.

    Signing on fees? Wages? Agents fees?

    I dont know how many times it has been said, the way Ben Arfas leg broke means it shouldnt prevent him from returning to his best form.

    It's our second season in the Premiership! Who do you expect us to be going for?
    The transfer window has only just opened!
    I'm sick of all these fans making these articles, funnily enough it seems to be a lot of fans that have been supporting the club for years. Maybe this is unfortunately why we have the 'delusional' tag that we can't get rid of

    IF these new players prove successful additions, and IF Carroll doesn't surprise us all by going on to become the most complete forward since Romario and Van Basten, then surely you have just argued the case FOR some brilliant football business management... Or would you rather have spent £30 million on similar talent and received considerably less for a wantaway Carroll and Nolan?

    Hmm. I'm going to wildly speculate that there are other players within the squad who can also score goals and seeing that the transfer window is still wide open; additional players with the ability to score goals will also be added.

    Call me crazy but I think it could happen.
