peasepud 59 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 Joe Kinnear is eager to discuss his January transfer plans with Mike Ashley following the Newcastle United owner's decision to take the club off the market. Ashley revealed before Sunday's 5-1 home defeat by Liverpool that he is no longer looking to offload the Magpies, who had been up for sale since September. Newcastle boss Kinnear, who is under contract until the end of the season, has welcomed Ashley's decision to hang onto the club. And Kinnear is now keen to find out how much money he will have to spend when the transfer window opens as he looks to improve his squad. Positive move "It is a positive move," said Kinnear. "He wants to look forward and what we are going to do now is sit down and see where we can strengthen the side and see what sort of money is available. "That hasn't been made quite clear yet, but there will be money available, for sure. "We have suggested players to Mike that I would like and now it's really wait and see what price they are. "(Executive director (football)) Dennis Wise and the rest of the people are finding out just what the prices are. "I'm happy that Mike has made the decision to stay. I'd like to think the Newcastle fans will allow him to return to St James' Park and watch his club." http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11661_4716027,00.html Now then Joe, I thought you'd held these talks just a few weeks ago and were promised 15million?

Jimbo 175 Posted December 29, 2008 Share Posted December 29, 2008 I heard someone compare Kinnear to that chap that used to pretend to be the interpreter for Ranieri when he first went to Chelsea, just simply making everything up as he goes along.

I think we all knew the 12m figure was made up. Peasepud has been spot on with this btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
