Swear I just read quotes that the new Newcastle signing said it's a club with great history.  Anyway, back on topic. Have we signed new fullbacks yet? 

We don't need full backs m8, we have the Scottish cafu, "brock lesnar" Taylor and "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee" Elmo.

Not to be confused with "float like a butterfly, sting like a Bree", he's a totally different player FYI.

What more does any team need......

Why use facts when you can have opinions?

Because they are your opinions and everyone is special.

We are all special snowflakes.

This forum should have a safe space section so everyone can feel special together.

Maybe we'll play 3-5-2 and not use fullbacks at all?

                    Kalinic

       Tanzube Elphick Mings

Adomah Hayden McGinn Green

                       Grealish

                 Abraham Kodjia

I bet you 100 of my English pounds that doesn't happen.

Pleased with the signing.

The only thing I will say though is I hope he's close to match fitness, we need players to improve the team.

Like hause we don't need new players coming in who are only going to warm the bench, especially with the problems we have.

DS says he brought him in to play at CB?, who on earth is going to replace Taylor now?????

But all of that means it makes more sense for us to keep and play Bree rather than loan him out.

Elmo and Hutton are poor, aging and probably won't be here come next season - why have either of them ahead of Bree in the pecking order then? Give Bree the run of game time here and see how he gets on. It's not like we're loaning him to a League 2 side, we signed him from a Championship team he was playing well in and are apparently considering loaning him to a Championship side. He's clearly at least capable at this level so why not play him for the remainder of the season instead of two players who aren't of any more use than him that have absolutely no future here in comparison.

I don't have an answer other than it seems obvious that DS doesn't think the same or Bree wouldn't be being loaned out?

I also like the fact we are sending out our youth prospects on loan. (Doyle hayes/ bedeau, ohare etc)

Will really be good to blood them for the last half of the season and allow us to see how they fair, possibly with a view to seeing if they are ready for first team action next season when I think the team rebuild will take place over the summer.

Coupled with this Guilbert signing for next season, if it happens, I think is really showing good forward planning, good stuff I think.

If Bree has a future at the club and Hutton and Elmo don't beyond this season then what is the point in loaning Bree out exactly? Give him the minutes here if that's the case and make him the first choice right back for the rest of the season. Best of both worlds as he gets the minutes he needs but he gets them here rather than going out on loan and then having to attempt to find his feet here again. If we're working towards next season and only hopeful of a play-off place then surely playing a player who will be here and not persevering with two that won't fits the brief.

Hutton and Elmo are both shite too and obviously the salient point is that it keeps both of them out.

Elmo and Hutton will probably be gone at the end of the season, so if Bree goes on loan it will give him a good run of consistent game time, which is probably what he needs.

I thinking probably a good move tbh, will allow.us to give him game time and decide if he is good for us next season, especially as we are meant to be signing this Guilbert guy who is also a RB for next season.

Its a loan to Scunthorpe apparently.

I mean come on, a matching option?

That's also just called bidding for someone if someone else makes an offer, pointless or what?

Anyone played this?, any good?

Microtransactions, and bad ones at that.

That is all.

Inthouggt this looked a pretty interesting game.

I actually pre ordered it on steam and believe the pre orders will be honoured as it's now gone to epic.

Anyone else planning to give it a go?

I have played eve since 2007, played almost 10 years straight with the odd break.

Haven't really played for the last 6 months though, but still log on to add skills etc

How does it conpare to witcher 3?

I haven't played Red, but I only have a PC and probably rate witcher 3 as the best game I have ever played currently.

I have heard such good things about red for dead I was almost tempted to buy a ps4 rather than wait for it to cone out on PC?

Thoughts?

So is Mings main position a LB or CB?

I thought he was a LB who could also play CB, but if he's 6ft 5 I am surprised he isn't primarily a CB who can also play LB?

Looking at Mings he's been fit since May 2018 but just hasn't got back in the Bournemouth team.

Although granted he was out for 8 months with a back injury and 12 months with a torn knee ligament.

Didn't realise he was 6ft 5in, quite a unit.

This guy is pretty reputable isnt he?, as far as twitter accounts go?

In Smith's system they don't need t be Pirlo though, they just need to be able to pick a 10 yard pass without giving it away after they've wone the ball back.

what is this wizardry you speak of?, being able to pick a 10 yard pass without losing it?

Stop drinking and lay off the drugs friend, you are speaking gobbledygook!

So is the move that Hayden is looking to make because he wants to be closer to London for family reasons ?

He wants to be closer to Wales i think, as his kid lives in wales or something?

i mean, Birmingham is closer to wales than Newcastle, but still......its not exactly a stone throw?

Mings is a worry just fo4 his injury record. But with hause elphick Chester nd a returning tuanzebe we are well stocked there.

well stocked where?, isnt Mings a LB?

interesting if true 

a few hours ago we weren't signing him because we didn't match the 1m loan fee..........i think they need to make their minds up....

Just under 30 hours to go until the window closes!

Tick tock tick tock

Apparently we have pulled out of the Mings deal as we don't want to pay the 1m loan fee. Forest now favourites 

Oh boy, wonder who on earth we are gonna sign, either the silence on possible signings is good practice by the club or we are genuinely going to struggle to get anyone else in......

Hope it's the former.
