I think we will end up with a foreign striker who will turn out to be sensational (Graham Carr).

 

A bit like when Liverpool replaced Rush with Aldridge, we will laugh our little fat chops off next season as Carroll fails and warms the bench while striker Tiote 2 takes the premiership by storm.

Because he's Alex's relative and most of us older posters have had a PM asking us to big him up.

CT losing his marbles, and the plot :rolleyes:

 

BTW if he's going to insinuate John Aldridge flopped at Liverpool he should look at his goals record. Not like CT to ignore facts in favour of his "opinion" though. :angry:

But seriously......

 

 

“When I was at Tottenham I worked under David Pleat and he was full of good football knowledge and little sayings. I remember him saying to me ‘Never waste a flight,’ and that has stuck with me.”

 

“So I go to a country and I’ll watch two or three games if I can. Last weekend I was in Lille, this weekend I’m going over to Germany to watch two games. You have to put that leg work in and get out to games – being passed a DVD of someone just isn’t the same.”

 

“And 90% of the players that agents pitch to you just aren’t up to it.” “So my passport is pretty well thumbed, but I love my job. My dad played for Newcastle United and I’ve always wanted to be here – now I am I’m desperate to help bring some success back to the club because it deserves it.”

 

“We are looking at a lot of players. We have teams of players that we’re looking at lined up in 4-4-2 formations because we want to have someone in every position,” “I think we need half a dozen players in summer, to be honest.”

 

“That is a personal opinion, mind, but that is what I’m working towards – having options to put before the manager when the season is over.” “And we won’t just watch a player once. With someone like Cheick, it was the result of four years watching him.”

 

“I’d first seen him playing for Roda against Arsenal in 2006 – they were hammered 4-0 I think, but you could tell he was going to be a good player. He never stopped running.” “So you keep an eye on him and track his progress, which is where we are with plenty of other players.”

 

“People will all look at Arsene Wenger and say he’s got the French market covered, but we’ve got a good handle on it, believe me. The same is true of other countries too.” “You know you’re not on your own – you know there is competition out there from other English clubs and you have to be realistic – you can’t keep everything you’re doing off the radar.

 

“A player that I was watching last weekend we’ve been watching for months, yet suddenly there were six scouts there from English clubs, all probably watching the same player.” “The key is to react quickly – that is what will get us our targets. That and the fact that Newcastle United is a big, big draw overseas.”

 

The guys working his nuts off so we'll see what happens in the summer. Not to say the powers that be will automatically take his recommendations, however if he did introduce Tiote to the board (I know KK gets a few mentions for that on here), then Im sure Ashley will fully back the man.

I take it you missed the Pards interview on the radio when he said we don't really send scouts abroad anymore as it costs too much

you're like a 5 year old who believes in Santa Claus, waiting for Xmas.

And you are like the old,miserable uncle that everyone avoids and wants to ruin Christmas by telling the kids Santa doesn't exist

 

I tell the reality lad, the reality

 

Believe in fairies if you like, we aren't going to buy top footballers and adequately spend the money we got for Carroll.

 

I'd rather remain positive and hope the next owners of the club will have the outlook that the last owners did.

Are we the first club to have a 'trophy scout' then CT? You should pen a few chants for him, should be easy for you with your marketing background.

To be fair i suspect Carr probably is one of the best scouts out there and i reckon he will have compiled a list of cracking players which the goons in charge will look at and decide most of them are too expensive so we'll miss out! What they will probably do though is pick up a couple of his cheaper/cheapest reccomendations and we will ahve to hope he pulls out a couple of gems again.

"We've got Graham Carr, We've got Graham Carr,

when it comes to unearthing European players for moderate fees he's the best by far"

 

Granted, it needs a bit of work.

 

Surely just re-use the Franz Carr chant, for Graham!
