Neville Neville Neville 0 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 shay will improve them hart looked hopeless today, and nearly managed to give us an equaliser. its strange cause hart burst onto the scene and looked good when sven made him the no.1, but he seems devoid of confidence. i guess shay will be a great person to learn from, especially about making the most of your strengths when you're a relatively small keeper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish Mag 3 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Newcastle boss Joe Kinnear says Manchester City's offer of £5m for goalkeeper Shay Given is "insulting". The 32-year-old Republic of Ireland international has been first-choice keeper at Newcastle for 12 years, but has made it clear he wants to leave. "Irrespective of all the money I keep hearing, they've only offered £5m, not a penny more," said Kinnear. "We think it's personally insulting to probably the best goalkeeper in the Premier League." Kinnear said he would be "heartbroken" to lose Given, but refused to be drawn when asked how he would react to City returning with an increased offer. "We're at a stalemate," said Kinnear. "As far as I know, the chairman and the owner are very unhappy we've only been offered £5m. "I don't want to lose him - I'm fighting a relegation battle, I want to keep every player and add to it, not lose it, but I really don't know." On Tuesday, Newcastle keeper Steve Harper, who has invariably found himself as second choice behind Given, signed a new three-year deal with the club. Given joined Newcastle in 1997 from Blackburn for £1.5m and had made 461 appearances for the Magpies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 £8m and not a penny less. If they don't come up with the dosh, fuck them and fuck Given - he stays. Given is a better player than the welsh gargoyle and Bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 This is what happens when JK keeps telling the world we have no money. Aye, good point that. Man City probably think, we've got a canny keeper already and we can go back for Given or go for a different target in the summer. I know they've got loads of money but they still don't need to go ott with their offer. That said, I think he'll go for about £8m on Monday. He won't play on Sunday either, will he?

I'd have thought he'd be keen to play (especially against the mackems) and there's no conflict of interest like there was last night....but they'll not chance an injury fucking up the deal.

Barney 0 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Hopefully he gets over that knee injury for our game this weekend. To be serious though, if he goes(likely) and Harps gets injured. We're boned. A strike force of Smith/Shola -Carroll A midfield containing Duff-Geremi-Butt A defence with Edgar and/or Taylor That there is relegation stuff.

Gemmill 46029 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 A lad on NO posted about 3 days ago that Given was furious that we aren't allowing him to leave for the current bid, and to "expect a mystery injury on Wednesday". If it's Shay swinging the lead, then he won't be playing on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's Shay swinging the lead, then he won't be playing on Sunday. Fuck him, he signed the contract. EDIT: The swearing was aimed in Given's direction btw...

If he's going to go i'd much rather it be now when the money we recieve could be reinvested instead of with minutes to go in the transfer window.
