Maja

[BigPete]

Stewart Donald has told Nick Barnes he's cleared out his locker, and will not play for us again.

Fuck him then get what we can and move on, he will possibly regret this as he's getting game time and scoring goals.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

But you said it was from what you understand which suggests you do have an idea.
What are they doing wrong

He’s full of shit

 

[Botchie]

Has he done that like?

What? Embleton hasn't done that

Thought you were talking about Maja, my mistake.

 

[hypersonic]

That is such a short termist view though, where is the forward thinking?

Some players get paid on potential, if we are offering him the wages of a player his age at Shrewsbury for example, then he is never going to stay is he

He is an England youth international at every age group, that deserves some respect from the owners.

Totally agree and that's why I keep saying we'll see loads of them leave. The club won't match their ambitions right now and can't afford to pay for potential. We'll see a lot of good lads go for less than they're worth because we can't afford to keep them.

SD said when he came in that the academy would pay for itself, we're seeing the start of that now.

 

[janey]

His family have been saying he is desperate to stay

What do you man what are they doing wrong?

We've had 4 young talents with contracts expiring in the summer, so they are doing someit wrong

And how many of them have left.
Except Maja who has just effectively walked out of the club that gave him a chance

 

[The Rat]

Thought you were talking about Maja, my mistake.

Oh no no, not claiming he wants to stay like

 

[BigPete]

Thought you were talking about Maja, my mistake.

I am talking about Maja mate, you quoted wrong person?

 

[LineTrash]

Do you honestly think we will spend 4 million in the window? I just can’t see it.

4 million in Jan window in League 1...you’re a mess.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Love the Donald me like but I wish he’d never said anything. It’s made the whole thing feel worse.

Why, he’s always been upfront, unlike Short who might as well have lived on the moon and given the keys to the safe to a monkey.

 

[BigPete]

And how many of them have left.
Except Maja who has just effectively walked out of the club that gave him a chance

Fuck him then no player is bigger than our club

 

[The Rat]

And how many of them have left.

None of them have left, but none of them are signing deals, it's a bit of a worry. You don't seem to care what iota what goes on at the club though, you're just here to defend the owners.

 

[AB22 Easy Tiger]

Has he officially left yet?
Or is this just rumour?

It came from Stewart Donald

 

[janey]

Fuck him then no player is bigger than our club

Absolutely

 

[Baby Give It Up]

Let's just hope we have a sell on fee for him.

 

[Botchie]

I am talking about Maja mate, you quoted wrong person?

Donald has told BBC Newcastle that's what Maja has done marra. @janey posted a link to Nick Barnes Twitter.

 

[James]

That’s not the point mate. Why say he wanted to stay if he had no intention of doing so? This manner of shithousery will never sit well with me.

He might have wanted to stay, but if a better career move opens up you take it. There's no loyalty in football, just as there's no real loyalty in any job, I'd sack off my job for something better paid and more suited to be given the chance.

 

[darius]

Maybe but he’s treat us badly. He could have gone with our best wishes but he’ll be as popular as say Hongkongphooey is on here when he returns to the SOL.

I'm not sure he has. He's a young lad and this will have been a bit of an ordeal for him.

 

[The Rat]

4 million in Jan window in League 1...you’re a mess.

Aye sell your best player and invest none of it back in the side

Great idea mate, sure that will get us promoted!

You're absolutely fuming

 

[janey]

None of them have left, but none of them are signing deals, it's a bit of a worry. You don't seem to care what iota what goes on at the club though, you're just here to defend the owners.

How do you know none are signing deals, I’m not here to defend the owners but as I’ve said in my mind so far they’ve done nothing wrong.
I could say you are just here to criticise them

 

[The Rat]

He might have wanted to stay, but if a better career move opens up you take it. There's no loyalty in football, just as there's no real loyalty in any job, I'd sack off my job for something better paid and more suited to be given the chance.

Too right I would, I'd be f***ing out of the door before they even knew it.
