Sir Bob Almighty! 0 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 http://www.nufcblog.com/2009/08/26/hughton...-be-on-his-way/ But if somehow its true, its very worrying as he has been a key man. It says: "And some good news and bad news after the game on potential loans to and from the Newcastle club. According to this evening’s BBC Sport Commentary, they are reporting Newcastle are close to a loan deal for Spurs’ Gareth Bale. But also news that Gary Megson wants Kevin Nolan back at Bolton Wanderers, for a season long loan deal, and Ashley is said favor the deal, to reduce the wage bill. Nolan is just coming into his own at the Tyneside club, and is the epitome of fight and spirit in the Newcastle side this season. Kevin got his second goal in as many games tonight, and it would be a very bad move for Newcastle. But hey, Mike Ashley has made enough of those kinds of decisions in the last 12 months, and unfortunately, it seems he is not yet finished. Newcastle fans are praying Ashley will leave Tyneside soon – to end his horrendous and failed stewardship of the now Championship club." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Nolan can clearly do a good job for us at this level, and looks like he'll be amongst the goals as well. If ashley got rid of him on a loan it would make him an even bigger reatard/cunt than i thought possible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcsteve 0 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Why get rid of a player who is doing well for us. He is obviously happy playing for us and playing at this level. He looks like he is really enjoying his time with Newcastle even with all the shit going on behind closed doors. Another decision disaster.

If he does go it'll be a decision motivated by money, or the lack of it at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manctoon 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Absolutely no truth in the Nolan link to Bolton at all. Like the Carroll rumours, they have probably been spread by people within SJP to try to whip up interest and necessary cash for Mr Ashley. Besides, if you were Megson, exactly what about Nolan's recent form would make you want to buy him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, if you were Megson, exactly what about Nolan's recent form would make you want to buy him? Erm two goals in two games? MOM performance against Reading? He was shite for us in the prem last season though I suppose, but the fact that Bolton have had a shaky start might have caused him to think he needs someone with a bit of passion in the team...enter Nolan. I agree to an extent though, most likely tosh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donaldstott 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 When we signed him all the talk was that Megson was absolutely delighted that he'd got rid him!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1280 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I don't think we can aford to get rid of anyone with the squad the way it is but Nolans been anything but impressive to me this season or last. Admittedly I haven't seen the last two games but I thought he was annonymous against WBA, Reading and Sheff Wed. I'd have him behind Smith, Barton, Guthrie and probably Butt for a midfield spot myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 6 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 All the papers seem to be running with Bolton want him on loan, nothing from the Newcastle side. I can't see any players leaving on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 6700 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Megson has just been on SSN saying that he wants to bring him back on loan. Isn't that technically 'tapping up' a player? Hope Nolan tells him to go fuck himself tbh - was happy to sell him in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldstott 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Fair play to rolly polly Kev, he's managed to turn opinion very quickly on here.

The Fish 11062 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Decent in this league, but we've sufficient in his position and he's hardly the best we've got. Smith, Barton, Guthrie, Butt, Geremi.... I'd put him ahead of the two old codgers, but he's less effective than the other three imo, regardless of his recent form I'd sell him if I could.

tooner 243 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 regardless of whether you think he's shit or not, we don't have a big enough squad to get rid of anyone.....especially if the Fat Bastard is just going to the casino with the profits.

TicTacWoe 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 He's been pretty ineffective for the most part this season, often going through games without being notcied. If we got any sort of fee over 2 million I'd take it. The trouble is, Bolton only want him on load, and even if we did get a proper bid from them and sell we wouldn't replace him, therefor he needs to stay, unfortunately.

peasepud 59 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 In the past I would have been packing his bags and putting a note out for the milkman but now no way, yes we have cover in his position but we are now woefully short of actual bodies and IF Shearer was to walk into this club next week then Barton wouldnt be counted as a player so we'd then be two down.

Sir Bob Almighty! 0 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 I think its important that we keep hold of him tbh, Barton and Guthrie are fairly injury prone which leaves us with Butt, Smith & Geremi, who are all defensive minded players, Nolan rarely gets injured and is more attacking than defensive. I can imagine a central pairing of Butt & Smith catastrophic no matter what league we're in. I have to see Nolan has impressed me so far this season, he was shite in the prem last season though, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not the best but seems to have found the way to the goal again and I think could get 10+ in the championship. Foolish to sell him at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
