Aye he’s a fuckin wanker, his classic thing is to pour water on everything but caveat it in some way that he can go back on it, such as the below:

We’ve just spent £45m on a player. Seems FFP wasn’t an issue, it was more likely negotiations were going on and cunt chops didn’t have a clue. 

 

More cold water. 

 

Throw in some negativity, and a clear dig at NUFC fans on Twitter getting excited. 

Negative about Joelintons chances of playing. Just another thing he got wrong. 

 

Another negative article, basically we can’t spend because of FFP so it’ll be loans or fuck all. 
Another pretty negative article 3 days later, basically saying the club don’t want to spend, FFP etc, it’ll probably just be loans, Gordon briefly mentioned but it’s just in a run down of all the players linked and it’s not a strong or positive link. 

Mention of Gordon, but he incorrectly thinks DCL is the focus as he’s constantly linked us to - Gordon was always the target. 

 

Another negative article, questioning the club not spending - despite him constantly bleating about FFP being a complete blocker. Weird one, and incorrect of course. 

First proper mention of Gordon, but it’s just mentioned in the context of he’s “heard him linked a lot” but he then of course says he mentioned Gordon in an article - he did but he also mentioned about 8 other players as a list people were mentioning it wasn’t him breaking anything or giving anything definitive. 

Negative, another “as I said” despite it all being piggybacking off others making the link. 

Another negative one, clearly this one was a proper negotiation but Edwards here trying to frame it more like the Maddison situation from the summer. 
Gordon signing happened, Luke has then said that one signing is it, and started pouring more cold water on any other link . Oh aye he also got the structure of the Gordon deal wrong, then mentioned Ashby for the very first time way after others - so if that one happens expect a ton of “like I mentioned earlier this week” shite. 

 

The bloke is an absolute fucking whopper, he’s also got two of his mates tweeting stuff like “as Luke said” about the Gordon transfer when the cunt did no such fucking thing other than citing others and being negative. 

Fuck me superb. Absolutely nailed the cunt

Aye. He seems to have no more inside track than Casey, Gob of the Tyne et al. Pretty much behaves like them on Twitter too.

One more sneaky one before Tuesday would be nice. Don't know much about Ashby but Scotland seem to churn out class full backs, so I'll trust Ashworth and Howe's judgement. If Lamptey wasn't so injury prone he'd be a very good example of Ashworth's ability to pick up a class full back on the cheap.

Sssssh - Craig might hear you and he is not having anymore signings, I can tell you 

[Gemmill 49924]

Wtf have we been offering West Ham previously for this Ashby kid if they've finally agreed to £3m?

 

Packet of space raiders and a five rider. 

[Kid Dynamite 7636]

Suspect this marks then end of Krafth and/or Manquillo

Aye, as shown where we’ve agreed a fee with West Ham for a player less than a day after Edwards said there’d be no more after Gordon other than a “never say never” deadline day move, another transfer window he got completely fucking wrong. Expect an “as I said” about Ashby since he mentioned him in passing once prior to saying we’d not sign anyone else. 

[Howay 12496]

Been in the toon 10 minutes and he’s already ditching the dodgy corduroy for a Nike tech fleece and Air Maxes. 

[ewerk 33215]

Fuck Gordon, I’d have been asking for a picture with his missus.

Well... Chicken Nonce has said we aren't going to be making any other signings in Jan so I don't know who to believe

Come on Gallagher, come to the mags.

 

[Gemmill 49924]

Gallagher's been getting games under Potter, hasn't he? Would seem a weird time to leave just as he's getting starts.

As a sub.  Think he's only started a couple.

Perhaps he wants to play for a Champions League side as opposed to one of those mid-table mediocre outfits.

Sell. Sell. Sell!

 

He is hardly ever playing and on huge wages. With Joelinton being able to play in midfield again, I d rather sell him than keep him to make up numbers.

Jonjo off to Forest by the sound of it.
