Besty 4 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Would have liked Gooch to stay... never thought he got a proper chance... would prefer him over Ramage. I might have a bias due to his nationality... The difference being Gooch wasn't our player whereas Ramage already is. We'd have basically been paying a transfer fee with Oneyewu (sp?) just to see if he was good enough. No more of that sort of money wasting thanks. Ramage will probably leave in time too but we need bodies at the minute. Can't see him being anywhere near first choice next season though. I see the point. I just felt that Onyewu had more of a desire than any other partner he had (except for Taylor) just didn't have the opportunity to form the partnership. And I had my heart set on my new top with Onyewu on the back... He didn't get much of a chance to be fair. He was a bit Bramble-esque, never looked comfortable on the ball, maybes it was down to the different style of play over here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a bit Bramble-esque, never looked comfortable on the ball, maybes it was down to the different style of play over here? That is what I tend to believe. But with more of a chance with an established (and I mean constant, not good) player next to him, he may have adapted. Trying to keep up with the PL should have been his priority. Doing that and trying to figure out how the person next to him is going to screw up would be making things more difficult than they need to be.

Norbert Colon 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Aye they do say that it takes aseason to get used to the pace for any foreign player apart from the exceptional ones - maybe Sam thinks he can bring better in for nowt (Ben haim and Igor Tudor wud be my choice) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hadn't seen this elsewhere : Newcastle chairman Freddy Shepherd said he was ready to back Allardyce's recruitment drive, although he would not commit himself on the level of funding for it. Shepherd said: "I think four or five players would be the top end of what we would try and get to resolve some of the problems that happened last year. "There are obviously some resources there to bolster the squad. "You have never heard any manager at Newcastle saying we have never backed them."

Geordie Boyo 24 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Let's face it, we haven't released anything really aproaching a defender! This week keeps getting better all the time! I agree. None of those players are any loss to us. Leaves us with Huntington, Taylor, Ramage, Edgar Solano & Carr...! Hope we sell that worthless plank of wood too, tbh...!

peasepud 59 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Bramble to play for England within the year. If you fancy putting £50 where your mouth is I'll take you up on that. Okay so Im not brave enough to go 50 but I'll go 10 and I'll have another tenner with you on this one.. If he goes to another Prem club then when we play them away he gets MOTM.

MattM4 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Yes! Great news. I am kind of sad for Gooch though, was really hoping it would work out for him here. But kicking out Bramble is just great news. He was absolutely terrible in those Reading and Blackburn games... and then there are the years of absurdity before that. With previous management, there was always a chance he would be handed a new and improved 5 year deal, on the basis of the 2-3 good games he has every now and then. ... get in.
