On sky sports now the deal is off!

Oh Joy :O from the sound of it its off as he only wanted to stay on loan for 6 months

I'm finding it hard to get upset that we haven't signed Southampton's 3rd choice left back.

Same Idc if we sign him or not I think people will be p*ssed off about not getting anyone over the line tho

Looking at it another way though........ this 3rd choice player has decided not to join us! Says it all.

He's probably a lot better than our first choice.

Dunno...apparently he was keen but Southampton only wanted to sanction a 6 month deal.

the whole saga sums up newcastle united perfectly, we cant even sign a reserve player.

or you could say, they won't budge from what they want hahaah

I think he's decent personally and would of happily had him here but it is pretty damning that we couldn't work out a deal.

Although i suppose if both clubs have definite time frames of what they want it's not surprising we couldn't work something out.

Still. . . ****.
