We’ve been linked with the 23-year-old for most of the summer but, as ever these days, our interest cooled as Ajax played hard to get with Anita.
However it would seem that a fee of around £6.2 million (or €8 million) has been enough to persuade Ajax to part company with their academy prospect who has been at the Amsterdam club for over 13 years now. Anita is yet to agree terms with Newcastle though although you would have to say that negotiations and a medical are just formalities ahead of the closure of the deal. It’s highly unlikely that his agent will have no idea what NUFC are going to offer isn’t it?
Naturally this will crank up the speculation regarding Cheik Tiote who will now be pencilled in as leaving the club by a section of our fans. It may be the case or it may not and nobody knows for sure, but just because we’ve signed another defensive midfielder (who can also play left-back I’ll add) it doesn’t necessarily mean that our African enforcer is on his way.
If you actually think about it allows our team to be more dynamic in attack if the addition of Vurnon is worked right. You could have Anita and Tiote sitting deep with Cabaye pushed further forward flanked by Benny and who can interchange with Cisse up top throughout the match. Or we could have a midfield trio of Cabaye, Tiote and Anita giving Ba, Cisse and Ben Arfa licence to do some damage in attack.
The possibilities are endless and with the prospect of somewhere near 50 games this season we, to be fair, need all the faces we can get.
So not quite signed and sealed yet, but not too far off…

The point I’m trying to make Bradford & Bingley understand, (have this problem all the time as Grandad Les left the common sense to me) is that the Carroll money was to be used for future purchases of players. Lambias is quoted.
He then tries to muddy the waters by publishing figures from March 2011 which states the club only made a small profit for the year which included the sale of Carroll.
Absolutely irrelevant and he is to deep in his hole to shout for help.
We have since made approx £15-£20m on sales with Enrique, Nolan, Guthrie, Best and fringe players.
He can only account for Cisse, Cabaye, Marveaux and Oba and nominal fee players.
Even Ba’s offsets can be saved by the £7.5m contract the toon had just gave him.
He is so far down the hole I can hear the echo of him shouting. 😛 😛 😛

“the Carroll money was to be used for future purchases of players. Lambias is quoted. ”
Never seen that quote i remember him saying “Every penny of the £35m will stay in the club.”
So if that money paid for the under soil heating it stayed in the club, If it paid for new contracts for Colo, Tiote, Krul, Gutierrez, Shola, Williamson, Raylor, Ferguson, Vukcic and Sammy it stayed in the club, If it paid for the ridiculous signing on fees players demand and the agents cut of any deal it stayed in the club.
You left out the £6m Santon deal or the £5.5m for Ben Arfas permanant deal or were they in you accounted for in your nominal signings.
Cant believe people are still obsessing about this fecking £35m, Look at the quality of player that have arrived at the club and the rapid progress weve made since villa park 09 does it really matter how much the club spend ❓

Troy Stavers(Quote)
Troy the problem is, if you’re going to be pinickity than you could say that Carroll’s money was all used for transfers.
And that Nolan’s/Enrique’s etc was used for other expenditure as they never “technically” said that those other sales would see money reinvested in the team.
Who gives a flying f*** anyway. The money has stayed in the club. If we had got weaker on the back of the sale I would be moaning. However we replaced a £35 mill player with someone better for free/signing on fee. They should be applauded for such a shrewd move and the reducing of debt in that instance is fully warranted.
Genuinely feel like sometimes those that mention the £35M would be happier if Ba had cost £15M and Cabaye £20M.
There is really nothing to moan about.

@Newkie
The point I’m trying to make Bradford & Bingley understand … is that the Carroll money was to be used for future purchases of players. Lambias is quoted.
This all started with you saying, “We are still waiting for the Carroll money to be spent “.
Troy, face the fact, THE MONEY HAS BEEN SPENT. The accounts show it. The sooner you get your head around that the better.
You mention Llambias, but you don’t give any direct quotes. What has Llambias actually said; initially and subsequently? You must be a fool if you’re waiting for the Carroll money to be spent based on what he has said then or subsequently.
His argument anyway, as everyone knows, is that NUFC take a more accountancy led version of spending, representing the sort of money that has been committed over the first year of a signing. They believe it gives a more rounded picture of the actual cost of a deal. Naturally it adds up to a great deal more than “headline fees” which fans usually use as their benchmark. The sums include transfer fees (Newcastle pay it all up front unlike most clubs who pay in instalments), agent fees (which can be millions ie 10-14 per cent of the entire worth of a contract), signing on fees, and the first year pay of a new recruits. For instance Yohan Cabaye cost £5million. But add agent fees of, say £1million, and first year wages of say around £3million, Newcastle will have it down as a £9million deal for this season.
Like the UK, Europe, and the US, NUFC under FFS borrowed money heavily. They spent it on ***** players like Michael Owen, and were heavily in debt. Now governments and citizens are having to pay the consequences, and repay that debt. NUFC is being prudent by doing the same.
Two questions Troy. (1) Are you seriously waiting for NUFC to spend a further £35M on players, having already used a substantial proportion of that money to pay off the debt hang over? (2) Do you want NUFC to continue with the debt, which was money spent on players under FFS, or would you rather see it paid off?

Aussie Magpie Fan(Quote)
I fully get your point and what Ashley and Llambias are doing. I agree with it. I just don’t accept the money, inc agent fees, 1st year of player wages covers the £35m.
You still haven’t explained why you published those finances which I still maintain are irrelavent as they were produced at or around the same time as Pardews quote. ( Sorry I said Llambias instead of saying Pardew who was quoting Llambias’ boss. )
They were just results of the profits/losses over the previous year. If you had published this years, which covered the post Carroll sale then I wouldn’t question your reasoning. However as they aren’t out it’s not possible and it’s not possible to tell where the Carroll cash has gone.
If you are content with Ashley promising the cash will be spent in players at the point of sale then reneging 6months down the line and saying it will now be reinvested in the club, then more fool you.
I certainly don’t expect the club to spend over and above their means and I still maintain with sales of players being IRO £55m and purchases being £23m, then I suggest your agent fees, contract fees are covered by the saving of Carrolls, Barton’s, Nolans, Smiths wages which were all above the current players wage cap.
Of course you will dismiss this as “me not getting it” however that does not mean you are right. IMO you are wrong.
I would suggest, the revenue streams which include the biggest TV deal in history, Europa football and additional attendances, football merchandise and sponsorships should be spent in the daily running of the club.
I know there’s a lot of bloggers who agree with me and many who don’t. This debate has gone on since the club sold Carroll and I know those who will support your view are the ones that I generally disagree with on most subjects.
Explain why you published those irrelevant Finances? 😀

Troy, so you don’t answer any of my questions; you say you agree with my point and what Ashley and Llambias are doing; you say I still haven’t explained why I “published those finances” (?) when everyone can see that I have explained why the accounts including Carroll’s money were relevant to where the Carroll money has gone (the accounts show the Carroll money has been used to clear debt on player purchases and to buy new players, including wages on frees and on improved contracts, agents fees etc.); you now apologise for quoting Llambias, who controls the finances, when it was Pards, who controls the team, that said it; you blame Ashley for reneging, but if we spend more money on players, we are only going to increase the debt not pay it down; you avoid the question as to whether you want us to spend more money and increase the debt, simply saying that you don’t want the club to spend over and above its means; all indications to now suggest you want NUFC to spend £35M (probably more by your reckoning) on player purchases. Its dead easy to nit pick and criticise, and not say what you would do. Are you going to say that we have £35M to spend on players and we should spend it? Should it be this window, January, next window? By when? Stop dreaming fella, and come into the real world not the world of a few years ago when people, including FFS, where borrowing millions they could not afford and in FFS’ case, peeing it up the wall on no marks like Owen.

SolanosTrumpet(Quote)
@B&B
The finances published by you is not the where the Carroll money went. I fail to see how you can’t get a simple point.
All that was showing is, IF the Carroll money was invested in previous debts and commitments then all but £5m would be left.
The owner, the one who tells Llambias what to do and say, told Pardew at the point of sale that the money would be reinvested solely in the team. Not, debts, other commitments.
Pardew is quoted shortly after the sale.
I don’t want the money to be spent on another Michael Owen and never have I suggested that. What is wrong with buying another Cisse tho. ?
That is the ridiculous **** thrown at me & others who defend our point. It’s not about going back to Shepherd days. It’s about having a balance and spending the cash on the right players.
There was such a fine line between hero and zero with Shepherd unfortunately he didn’t have the knack of appointing the right managers all of the time.
This is a crucial time in our history as we are on the edge of success o failure, similar to the time when SBR had us in the CL and we failed to invest in the first team.
It was only a short while ago, Ashley made the huge mistake of throwing everything out of his bath tub including the plug and we were relegated resulting in us increasing our debts dramatically.
Ashley has been proved a liar on many occasions. Based on bad character he has lied on this occasion about the Carroll cash.
It is my belief, he is still gearing this club up for a sale and his intention is to clear the debts as soon as he can and the investment in the team is not his priority. You choose to believe his propaganda.
I don’t.
The club doesn’t need to clear its ever increasing debt so dramatically, so quickly if he’s here for the long haul.
We are still in excess of £25m in sales since Carrolls sale which IMO means most of it has not been spent.
Troy Stavers(Quote)
Who knows, if we had bought a quality CB a year ago when Pards demanded it, we might now be in the CL.
There’s a fine line between being thrifty and foolish.
Ashley has proven himself to be foolish when we got relegated.
Let’s see what the transfer window brings and where we end up next season.
If we finish out of Europa next season then it’s a huge faux pas on Ashley’s behalf by not reinvesting in the first team.

Again, you find the most simplistic issue hard to grasp.
Granda Les should have whispered his wise words to you more often 😉
What is it about my previous posts which doesn’t answe your question whether I believe there’s a substantial amount of player transfer kitty available.
I will repeat it again but only one more time as its looking embarrassing for that you are my bro. 😉
On transfers alone since Carroll was sold we have surplus IRO £25m.
Moving onto your next point, do I believe we should spend it all this summer? Well I believe a great deal of that cash could have been invested over the period since Carroll was first sold. I trust the judgement of Pards and Carr to identify players and they repeatedly have done so.
Pards is still waiting a year on for his quality CB.
But let’s not digress from the very first issue that this is all about.
You stated, Most if not all of the £35m had been spent.
I’ve explained time and time again why I believe it hasnt on players, which is where Ashley stated it would be spent.
I’m still waiting for you to explain where it’s gone as all I get its gone, as I’ve all I’ve had is irrelevant finances ( laughable in itself)
and statements about players fees, agents, youth teams.
Why not put all our transfer kitty into that. Put the surplus £25m into it.
We are in debt. Pay it off.
