The Berbatov rumour won't happen. It was earlier in the window but he wanted to stay to United. Now let's wait and hope Bryan Ruiz will come
 
Yet again, newcastle do naff all on deadline day.

typical mike ashley, have 1 target in mind, get rejected by the player and has no back up in place......

Couldn't be more wrong. Maiga, Cisse and Ruiz were all bid for today. Sochaux upped their valuation for Maiga to 11m. Cisse ended up being priced out as well, and as of yet the Ruiz move details is unknown.
 
I reckon we are the unknown club that made a bid for Jelavic as well
 
I wish we had signed a striker but theres always the january window , hopefully demba ba settles in quickly and starts scoring . I have to say when I was watching the Crouch signing unfold at stoke I was disappointed we didn't go in for him

I in all honesty didn't want Crouch. 30 years old, and for the price, there is better. No doubting we had the time to bring in the striker, but, I still think Leon Best has goals in him, and him and Ba looked decent as a partnership against Fulham.
 
yeah you're right about Crouch ... I would like to see Sammy Amoebi come through and do well . I still think we'll be ok this season and should make a top half finish , Cabaye looks a good player we'll just have to wait and see how Marveaux is ... I think Santon and Cabaye will prove to be quality signings I couldn't believe we got them both

I get a horrible feeling we might go for beattie....i know he is not in this "age range" newcastle are going for but i just get a feeling we might sign him up on a short term deal.....alot of rumours about getting El hadj diouf - which i highly doubt!

I can't see Ba scoring too many goals, to be honest.
 
Man City v Newcastle

What do you guys think, will our unbeaten run come to an end or not? It looks like Pardew is going to go there and attack. It almost worked for QPR so lets hope it pays off.

We have alot of injurys and will be stretched all over the pitch. Would like to see Santon or Gosling get a run out on the RW and i hope Guthrie keeps his place (motm against Everton)

Im going for a sneaky 0-1 Newcastle :D
 
Newcastle are weighing up a potential move for Everton's Leon Osman. A bid of £2.5 million is being rumoured as enough to tempt Everton.
 
Sammy got his first 2 caps last week for England U-21 and he just got rewarded with a 3 1/2 year extension.

Nile goes on loan to Barnsley until January.

Team Tomorrow -

Krul
Simpson-Colo-Saylor-Raylor
Obertan-Guthrie-Cabaye-Jonas
Ba-Best

Bench - Elliot, Santon, Sammy, Shola, Tiote, Ben Arfa, Gosling

Marveuax is out, so if Obertan doesnt play(hes questionable) then I think Gosling will be run out on the right. And if Best doesn't play(also questionable) I think well play Ben Arfa behind Ba


Ill be hoping for 1 point tomorrow. But a win would be HUGE.
