[Archived] Nicko's Thread

[philipl]

Shearer told by Newcastle he is too inexperienced to be considered.

But then he generously offers to help any way he can so the shadow will be cast over whoever is appointed.

According to the Telegraph, Celtic are after Bentley and are willing to spend - wait for it - an astonishing £3.5m for him!

I think we snap their hands off and offer to gift wrap Samba at the same time.

£15 million and we would start considering

[EwoodGlory]

I wouldn't, SWP went to Chelsea for £21m.

3.5m! I'm stunned that someone can even make that up!

Bentley 3.5m

[roversmum]

Or it could be someone trying to unsettle him and start a bidding war......

[Sandiway Blue]

3.5m! I'm stunned that someone can even make that up!

Bentley 3.5m

And people on here slate `red top` newspapers!

[Damage]

Tongue in cheek is how the Geordies sound when they talk!!!

Peter Beardsley?

[nicko]

There may be positive Amdy Faye news later...I believe he is keen to come but Rangers may need him for their game with Gretna tonight. Watch this space.

I realise that this is not exactly filling people with enthusiasm.

But don't shoot the messenger.

This news makes me want to cry.

[den]

I'll judge him, if and when I've seen him.

[thenodrog]

This news makes me want to cry.

I rem comments like that when we signed the likes of Sav, Bellamy and Warnock.

[only2garners]

Nicko,

Is there any news on a takeover at the moment ?

Tom Finn's words at the Fans' Forum on Monday night were that there was absolutely nothing to report since the last meeting in November. Nothing is happening.

Not from me you didnt

[thenodrog]

Not from me you didnt

Right cocker.

So you must remember them too then?

[modes98]

Blimey give the guy a chance. He may recapture his glory days that he had at pompey. He really can't be any worse than Mokoena. (hope that doesn't come back to haunt me)

[brfc_jonesy]

there on about on sky that its pretty much dead in the water about faye, i wouldn't mind him, some more skins infront of mokoena in the pecking order and hopefully he will do one

[Exiled_Rover]

Bentley 3.5m

Why would he got to Celtic, even if they ponied up £25m? The SPL is where good players go for a final pay day.

[Sandiway Blue]

Nicko...Deschamps agent has denied being contacted with regards to the newcastle job,any updates?

[USABlue]

It all seems a little quiet on the Hughes front. I was wondering yesterday how this whole Newcastle affair may have affected Sparky. Has he actually felt excited about it? If so has it whetted his appetite to move on? Could there be some long term unsettling of Sparky created by this whole big club link.

[nicko]

Nicko...Deschamps agent has denied being contacted with regards to the newcastle job,any updates?

Of course he would be telling the truth about this...

Newcastle are putting their short-list in place, but Shearer's stuff in The Sun today will cause some problems.

The fans will no doubt sing his name long and hard tonight, especially if they lose to Stoke.

Ashley is right on the spot here - and Shearer seems to be the most powerful man in town.

Give him the job and see how he handles it. Call his bluff.

Sky know very little about anything.
