    [cite]Posted By: ValleyGary[/cite]SSN suggest that there will also be 'other payments' on top of 'the fee in excess of £35m'. In short, we could be hitting the £40m mark. In which case, Carroll really might be the fifth-most expensive player in the history of football by the end of the day (or higher).

    wtf?!!!!

    Heard Spurs were after Forlan earlier. Probably for a fraction of the price. I know who I'd rather have.

    I heard earlier in the week that Forlán didn't want to give England another crack and was more than happy in Spain for as long as he can be. May be rubbish but there you go, interesting to see what happens.

    apparently Newcastle have rejected the improved offer.

    what the hell is going on.

    So are we done with the signings now? Or can we expect one more before 11pm?

    El Kharkouri....now there's a thought. Wonder how old he is now.

    Hopefully the latter, we need one and that is assuming we keep Fry and we could do with a couple out as well
  • SimonsenSimonsen
    Shirty...he fits the age profile for a CAFC centre-back quite well then?! I'd have him....good cover for Semedo too.
  • ISawLeaburnScoreISawLeaburnScore
    There's conjecture on twitter that Carroll is flying to Liverpool imminently and that the latest knockback is Ashley playing for time to get a replacement on loan (suggested Crouch if Spurs are moving), not a rejection of the offer.

    It's all going to go like dominos.

    [cite]Posted By: WSS[/cite]26 year old Obafemi Martins joins Birmingham.

    26 years old...yeah right.

    He's at least 30

    Celestine Babayaro (ex chelsea) said he played in the Nigeria u'21s with Martins. Babayaro has got to be approaching 40 now

    Have we ever been successful at a work permit hearing?

    re. Dizzle and Babayaro PMSL
  • ISawLeaburnScoreISawLeaburnScore
    looked it up Dizzle... Babayaro is 32 so if he played as an "older u21" Martins would've had to have been about 15/16... possible I suppose!

    Liverpool's 35M bid for Carroll now accepted after the striker put in a transfer request.
  • RothkoRothko
    this is the best deadline day ever

    i can picture ashley now in the toon boardroom; shirtless and doing shots of aftershock with pardew as they fall about laughing and playing chicken with liverpool on the phone. kind of like the russian roulette bit of the deer hunter meets drunken bakers
  • cafcdan18cafcdan18
    Pardew has a few hours to find a replacement, potentially quite big chequebook- this could be interesting.

    Carrol is not worth £35 million, Newcasle have ripped Liverpool off big time.

    If you'd said at the start of the season Adam and Carroll would be sold to the tune of £50 million! Well words fail me.

    Football,and especially Liverpool, on it's arris.

    Great.....
  • Happy ValleyHappy Valley
    Given Allez's link to the story on overage Nigerian footballers, you don't think that Andy Carroll is actually... nah, not the way he behaves.

    Chris Kamara reckons that it's Torres for £48m plus Anelka.
