Midfielder Dan Gosling walked away from a possible deal with Crystal Palace earlier this week, after he was put in limbo after completing a medical in London on Monday, but the club did not contact him and he left to return to Newcastle on Wednesday.
Dan Gosling – needs to find a new club
It’s a blow to both Newcastle and Dan that the deal has fallen though, but the former Everton and Plymouth player will still be looking to leave Newcastle this summer, since he’s been told he has not future on Tyneside.
But news that Newcastle will give him the cold shoulder after he walked away from Palace is far from the truth, although both Dan and Newcastle will now be looking to get him to a new club before September rolls around.
There was news in SportsDirect News yesterday about Dan, and a Newcastle insider told them:
“It would be safe to assume that manager Alan Pardew and [director of football] Joe Kinnear would look for another club for him.”
It could be that Crystal Palace will revive the deal, but Dan was not impressed with the way he was treated at the London club, after being on Tyneside for three years, and it’s unlikely Palace will pursue the deal.
But Dan could be a good signing for a club like Hull City or even Cardiff City, as the two newly promoted clubs try to strengthen their squads to survive in the Premier League next season.

Comment #45Alright. I admit I am a troll, and I can sympathise with you all in regards to how the transfer window has been going. For what its worth, I have another account here. It begins with T. I will stop using this account from now on, and only use my old account.
Trolling you guys was fun, and also incredibly easy. I never knew how goddamn easily you would all take the bait after faking responding to myself, but I just had to do it given how all you believed I was sum ting wong, or rather he was me.
Adios fellow NUFC fans. I’ll still be talking to you. You just won’t know who I am.

Comment #47In other words: I am done, and sum ting wong is not me. Rather he’s probably a 13 y/o Indian boy.

Comment #48Seriously, what is the craic with this blog these days? There are more comments posted with people b*tching at each other, than there is about football or nufc?
Anyway, I think gosling has more chance in the championship. If I were a prem manager I’m not sure I would take a risk on him.

Comment #49One of my mates is a Spurs fan and I recken they should go for Ba. I would have him but I don’t see it unfortunateley.
I just think he is a nice guy and he is going to get no where near the team with Lukaku,Schurlle & Torres.

Comment #50@tads haha you just made my day.
@Jeff you’re not even clever enough to log outility and back? Deserved to be caught you trolling Pollack.
@stw try to use less childish insults and discuss footballing matters while considering other perspectives not just your own

Comment #51you must admit it is very desperate to have 2 accounts to try agree with yourself !
surely the fact that no else agree’s with you is meaning there may not be too much in the debate and that agreing with yourself doesnt actually count as others taking your view !
you have put a big smile on my face though jeff and made me forget about our troubled club for a while and for that i thank you as i’ve not had a great deal to smile about lately 🙂

Comment #59@48 I see gosling as a second tier player too. Guy who had potential but it didn’t develop.
He’ll do well in the championship like Chopra and Ambrose have

Comment #61You guys are stupid. As a troll I had nothing to lose by posting the fourth post in this thread. I only did it because I knew you guys would be so easy to trick.
Now, however, I feel bad for sum ting wong, as he’s just a guy looking for a blog to talk on. Just let him talk. Notice how I’ve never trolled any of you individually. I don’t want to hurt anyone as an individual – so let him post properly please.
Plus this trolling was getting tiresome.

You shouldn’t be trolling anyway for any reason. It just means you are a pointless little worm with nowt better to do. It is disrespectful to everyone else, and Ed callef for more respect on this blog less than a week ago. Now, whether you beleive you have won or not, i don’t care, just p1ss off and let everyone post sensibly in peace

Comment #74Can we all just forget about Jeff or Sumting or wheoever else he calls himself and concentrate on the fact that it is 24 days to the start of the season and as yet we have signed bu*****ll.

Comment #80Jeef/Sum Ting
Why are you trying to justify and explain, like this is an episode of Scooby-Doo? Your defence of ‘Sum Ting’ holds no water. F off!
