Agent to Carroll: There's interest in you son, we should use the opportunity to get a better contract
Carroll to Pardew: Any chance I could have an improved contract gaffer?
Pardew to Carroll: Come on, you only signed one in October not right now
Carroll to Agent: They said no
Agent to Carroll: What! That's a disgrace. They obviously don't value you at all, we should put in a transfer request
Carroll to Chairman: I want a transfer
Chairman to Carroll: OK. My helicopter is waiting to take you to Liverpool.

Very strange bunch, Newcastle fans are. I really don't understand their mentality and thought process.

I remember them getting really wound up when we took the piss out of them out of them at Villa Park on the final game of the season when they went down. They were actually blaming us for them being relegated. Hilarious.

re: Carroll. Yes it sucks to have your best striker leave, but they're getting an insane amount for him. If they stay up they'll get 3 or 4 good players with that money so they should be better in the long-term.

That's only true though situation, if Ashley puts the cash back into signing players, his past history suggests whatever pardew may think that the majority of the Carroll transfer money will not be spent on new players.

Ashley has shown little to suggest he is in it for anything other than the money and has tried to sell up more than once to no avail- i'd be surprised come summer if pardew gets half the cash to spend.

I find it hard to believe sometimes that Mike Ashley is actually a Newcastle fan. I can't think of one good thing he's done for the club.

Selling Carroll and getting Ireland on loan for the rest of the season, there season is just going to go downhill from now on.

He's not - he's a Spurs fan.

He was saying he was forced into it. The truth would only emerge if you could see his finances as he would either have been paid off for his contract or he wouldn't. If he didn't want to go and was forced into it they would probably have to pay a loyalty bonus. If it was Carroll who put in the transfer request then unforced he would have signed that money away.

He is a NUFC fan.  He took them up.  He is well paid by them. He is adored by his own fans. He has done well this season for them.

If this was the Villa and I had the ability to play for the Villa and a fan too and be in his shoes,  why the fuck would you want to leave? It really is mental.  Maybe (but not for me) 20 years ago when you had the money increase and to play for Liverpool was a big draw.  But for somebody who was paid well, loved by his fans and in the England spotlight - it makes no sense.

He said the chairman made it clear they wanted him to go as they wanted the money, in that situation and the chance to double his wage at one of europes most successful ever clubs , it seems quite sensible to me he would leave a newly promoted club to join Liverpool.

Yes he may be a toon fan but that means little , Rooney was a huge everyone fan but still jumped ship, a player will put his career before the team he supports.Liverpool are a far better long term prospect than Newcastle.

i think this is the reason hughton was sacked, they knew he would fight the sale of carrol and pardew was told when he took over carrol is going in january so deal with it!

Seems unlikely as the deal only became possible because of Torres going to Chelsea.

Equally unlikely as pardew spent the whole window denying Carroll would be sold, if he knew they were going to sell him he would look a fool by denying it so vehemently.

As I say, a good deal if they spent it all on players but Ashley is hardly a man of his word and will probably hand pardew less than half of it, whatever he may say now.

Before we start taking the piss out of them i will give you another scenario. Gabby: I've always supported Villa from the day i was born i don't want to play anywhere else Gaffer. Houlleir: We don't want to lose you son but we have a surplus of fowards and appy arry has just offered us 25 million for your services, you will be getting a three million signing on fee. Gabby: how am i going to break it to all my fans, they will be awfully upset. The biggest losers out of this will be Liverpool,35 million for half a good season and a very bad reputation.
