    I've watched the last 3 games but outside that haven't been able to keep up with who weve signed. Can someone bring me up to speed on the new signings?

    Seems the management is keen on getting out of the relegation battle by bringing in some decent (and young?) talent.

    I'll be able to track it more now that football is over. What sites/Twitter accounts do y'all use?

    So far we've signed CM Jonjo Shelvey, CM Henry Saivet, and winger Andros Townsend. We're apparently close to signing striker Seydou Doumbia on loan from Roma, he's been a goal scoring machine pretty much wherever he goes. And news as of the last hour is a 2nd bid for Saido Berahino from West Brom.

    twitter wise, @lee_ryder is the most connected of the writers. @NUFC360, @NUFC_Index, and @NUFC_Online are all solid follows as well.

    @GraemeBailey: Newcastle given 'significant' encouragement by West Brom over Saido Berahino - NUFC confident deal will be done.

    I'm really pissed our board fucked up signing Doumbia. So jelly of you guys grabbing him.

    You guys are the losers of this window thus far, I'm not really feeling too great about your 2nd half prospects regardless of last weekend.

    agree and disagree. We grabbed a striker, made some money off of Jonjo and haven't screwed ourselves by overspending with money we just don't have. Wish we could have done more similar to NUFC but I get why we didn't. We have enough to stay up though just need tactics to improve and I think Guidolin will do good.

    I'm not sold on Paloschi but hopefully it works out for you. Selling Jonjo to a team you are in direct competition with wasn't the best move IMO, he's already looked really good for Newcastle. I want you guys to stay up.

    That is huge. Kid is legit and the long contract will help increase any offers if/when they come.

    Bingo. Could see him getting into the Spain setup in the next year or two which would skyrocket his value.

    From everything I'm seeing the stupid head coach model is gone. So if we stay up, Rafa should have control of transfers

    You're going to play a 4-2-3-1 and he's going to cycle through a bunch of players.

    Pretty good at spotting talent but weak minded players don't last with him.

    Can't even imagine Rafa staying but I would offer him the world.

    Would love for the club to be sold. Long dark roads ahead.

    I think we bounce back next year but still fucking sucks to go through this again.

    Rafa sure made it sound like he could stay, if the club makes the changes he wants, which I assume heavily involves recruitment.

    Yesterday talk was the club would let Rafa commute from where his family is at in NW England, which was big

    They would be stupid to not give him what he wants. He said it's not about money it's about structure. That has been what is lacking.

    So I guess Newcastle supporters are already ready to see Shelvey off to another club?

    Looking at a few articles and forums it seems nobody was impressed with his play and nobody names him as someone they want to stay.

    I actually did really like Jonjo and still think he has all the talent but that attitude and belief he is so much better than he is has killed his growth.

    I'm still new to paying this close attention, in previous years I would just watch if they were on and check the table every month or so.

    So what are he chances we get right back up next year? Are we going to lose all the big name signings we got this year? Granted that wouldn't be a loss in some cases.

    Lastly, in reading an article saying fans should prepare to lose some big names, they mentioned Colback. Is he seen as a good up and coming player? I always figured he was an effort guy with average physical talent

    No colback isn't an up and comer. He will probably stay because he won't be wanted elsewhere. A lot of the players will be sold, which is just fine. I could see us jumping back up, really just depends on manager and how many we are able to hold onto

    I would like to keep Mitrovic. Think he could thrive.

    I'm sure there's some there, but that's the main group
