Kinnear- player recruitment.

The facts of us losing that many strikers makes me realise the need to sign this window.
Sadly i think we're keeping cisse as we're consigned to signing gomis, acceptant of losing Ameobi and no doubt selling cisse come summer. We're going to continue taking a punt on Remy signing for us until we're a campbell career fail from catastrophe next season UNLESS we get De Jong in this window, loan or not, in which case we might be fine.

 

We wont sign anyone

 

If Ashley needs to pay for 3 new strikers then I'm off to polish my boots, as a I probably fit the pay scale he has in mind quite nicely.

 

But will we sell all our players...?

 

blimey Obi.. the tag fairy seems to have been active overnight...

 

Naughty tag fairy, bad tag fairy.

That llama was stuck on barbed wire and I was just trying to pull it free!

 

it looked mighty excited by something...

 

I see Pochettino is having a press conference at 3pm today following the announcement that Cortese has resigned as chairman of Southampton yesterday. Rumours are that Pochettino could follow and he has said this before.

This could be a big, big day for the Saints.

 

From SSN:

Fabio Borini sees his future at Liverpool, ruling out any suggestion of a season-long loan deal at Sunderland being made permanent.

"I'll finish my season here and then after that I'll go back to Liverpool because Sunderland smells."










I may have slightly misquoted the last couple of words, but that was the 'literal translation'.

 

Now now Obi, be kind to our neighbours.

 

Don't speak of such things. I would be heartbroken if we gave that useless parasite a new contract.

 

Right Joe, I'm officially bored now. It's mid-transfer window and no transfer news. No updates. Not a sausage.

Much as I despise almost every word you say, at least we used to have a Friday announcement to keep us informed. It's Friday tomorrow, so I am expecting an official update on how exactly you are earning your pay at NUFC. How are you helping Pards improve the squad?

What do you do, Joe? What do you actually do?

As I say, I'm bored now, so if there is no announcement, then I cannot be held responsible for any extra silly threads, posts, tags or other forum antics I may be accused of in the aftermath. (I said 'extra' silly before AB makes a witty jibe about all my contributions being silly ).

Now come on Joe. Do something productive. You useless fat fool.

 

Useful or useless?

 

good spot AB. I hate predictive text!

 

I'll be your spell checker for £500k a year.

 

No you won't! You didn't even spot that you'd put two extra noughts on the price in your own post, so why would I pay you £5 a year as a spell checker?

 

Go on then, a special winter sale of my spell checking, I'll take a zero off and do it for £50k a year.

 

NEWCASTLE EVENING CHRONICLE:Newcastle United are set to resist a bid for Siem De Jong this January. The Magpies are also unlikely to pursue Blackpool's Tom Ince - despite both players being offered around a host of Premier League clubs, including United.


Of course not, because that would involve Joe having get off his arse and actually do something. It would mean Ashley having to stump up some cash.

 

I think we should sign the Siem, Luuk and Nigel De Jong. It wouldn't take long. Its where they belong. Our team wouldn't pong. Nigels built like king kong. JPF loves dong.

 

That post was just wrong!
