sammynb 3517 Posted August 6, 2008 Author Share Posted August 6, 2008 We'll see Gemmill on SSN burning his shirt with Smith 17 on the back in disgrace if this goes through. Don't worry he'll be able to buy Ashley's in the bargain bin next time he's in Sports direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 878 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I like how A) yesterday the figure for Smith was 1.5mil and there's now two (admittedly unreliable) sources running the story. Tomorrow do you think it'll be 6mil and 4 papers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I take it that story in (iirc) The Sun a week or two ago about Mario Gomez going to Fulham for £15m isn't going to turn out to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one player regardless of his Euro form we should be in for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Are those advocating Smith's sale saying their preference would be to have Godsmark or Danquah playing ahead of him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Are those advocating Smith's sale saying their preference would be to have Godsmark or Danquah playing ahead of him? or A.Carroll and either way it's not going make any difference, not like were losing anything with smith not playing... lol i'd take 1m for smith even just to get him off the wage bill Isn't Carroll injured?

Guest alex Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Selling Smith is just too good an opportunity to miss under the circumstances and I can't see him making any difference against Man Utd anyway. Even assuming he isn't replaced this window I think he should be peddled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Are those advocating Smith's sale saying their preference would be to have Godsmark or Danquah playing ahead of him? Owen and Martins will do thanks. But the most games Owen has managed is 24. I think it's safe to say we'll not go an entire season where at least two from Owen, Martins and Viduka are available, how do people rate the other strikers with first team experience? For me it's... 1. Smith 2. Carroll 3. Ameobi Perhaps Keegan has realised they're all as shite as each other and that's why he's promoting Guti to get forward so he doesn't have to choose from them.

Thought you meant for the season opener. We know Shola's not good enough. Worse than Smith though? Debatable. Carroll - hard to say but if he can't give us a little more than those even at this stage in his development I'm not confident of him staying long either. I just think it's such a good opportunity if Smith is being courted because he's still got 4 years of his huge contract left. Might free up another space for a new face too. I know it's late in the day but it might even mean someone arriving in January. Plus it still leaves us with 5 strikers who've appeared competively for the first XI, plus Spiderman.

ewerk 31229 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) I don't fancy Guti up front, he hasn't exactly been prolific in the past has he? Edited August 6, 2008 by ewerk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I don't fancy Guti up front, he hasn't exactly been prolific in the past has he? He'd be a makeshift 2nd striker in an injury crisis though, I'd have thought. I wasn't saying he should start there. I'm just saying Alan Smith doesn't exactly leave us short if he leaves because he's unlikely to make a difference when pressed into action anyway.

I guess they're all championship level players so it's best to get rid of the one that's costing us most, if the others are staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JawD 99 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Newcastle United striker Alan Smith was missing for the Magpies tonight at St James's Park for their friendly with Dutch giants PSV Eindhoven. That was the big news ahead of kick off tonight with Smith absent for Kevin Keegan's side on the one year milestone since his first goal for the club on his Toon debut against Sampdoria. The striker wasn’t injured and has been linked strongly in the last two days with a move to Everton following Andy Johnson’s departure to Fulham.

Please God, please. x2. agree with alex. if we get rid of smith, there's no chance of playing in midfield next season which is a very very good thing. i'd rather throw a kid in that see alan smith in a toon shirt again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
