What would be miraculous? A few in, a few out, a decent striker such as Selke and a pleasant surprise such as Reina. What would be good? A couple in, and a surprise but relatively exciting name up front, such as Finnbogasson. What's going to happen? Lee will go back to Feyenoord, who will now say "dude, we told you on the weekend what to do and you're too late - we can't now find a replacement so **** off" and that will be us closed for business at around 5pm. Will be telling to see if Charnley turns up at the ground tonight. Will say a lot about whether he sits in his hovel watching the media and social media - there's quite a swell of disapproval and he doesn't strike me as the type to take it on the chins.
First bit of disappointment - start as you mean to go on, and all that - sees Mangala off to Everton and Sandro off to Sevilla. So a cracking start.
there may be some stick flying at Charnley tonight if nothing has happened but I'm waiting to see Ashley again on TV spouting his usual drivel always seems to do this when 52000 are inside the ground and can't here it
Ominous quote from Benitez when asked to confirm he would not walk away before the end of the season: “You never know. You cannot guarantee anything in life or in football but in my head now is that we do all we have to do before [the end of the window], try to get three points then it will be easier for me to have that conviction that we will do well.”
Interesting one from the BBC here tempting fate with some classics ________________________________________________________________________ 8:08 Get Involved #bbcdeadlineday or text 81111 (UK only) We saw Aymeric Laporte seal a deal to Manchester City yesterday - could there be more movement at the Etihad over the next few hours... How's your club's transfer window been? Let us know in gifs... ______________________________________________________________________- we could always post a picture of a Makem taking a ****
Still a part of me that thinks if we can come away from today with Slimani then it hasn’t been that bad. Pretty big ‘if’ though.
Schurlle apparently staying at Dortmund now due to an injury to one of their other players. Jurgen Klopp also confirming that Ings ain't going anywhere. The striker pool is starting to look a bit dry now !! Mitro will be like a new signing....mark my words !!
Ahhhh, so that was the plan - literally never play the bloke all season so when he does start it genuinely does feel like a new signing!
Just heard from my source within the walls at Newcastle that he is away to the airport to pick up a French International Déjá Vu for £30m honestly he told me this 10mins ago when he was here I said the old ones are the best ones so no news at all
Allegedly we've agreed the loan signing of this journeyman nobody, Martin Dubravka. ****ing hell, I'd rather we did nothing than pick up someone who's clearly worse than Sels. ****ing unreal this club. Rated at £900k by Transfermarkt. Moved to Prague for free last Summer. **** HATE ****ING NEWCASTLE UNITED ****ING ARSING BARREL SCRAPING INCOMPETENT ****ING PILE OF ****ING ****. That's better.
A new keeper is the priority? FFS! So maybe someone is thinking that if we never concede again between now and the end of the season we have a better chance of staying up. A plan so cunning you could stick a tail on it and call it a weasel. We could play with 2 keepers in goal and still concede man, what a bunch of prized ****ing dickheads we have at our club !
Could be worse, I s'pose - we could have Pardew telling us tomorrow how it was a success that nobody left. "'Cos they was interested in our players, we's got some good players, but we kept hold of 'em".
Looks like Aarons and Saivet are off on loan. Mitro confirmed now so maybe we have someone coming in.
