Page 1 of West Ham agree Parker fee- Starting a transfer merry go round?

Quote:
The Hammers are believed to be paying in the region of £8.5million for Parker`s services and have fended off late interest from Tottenham.

A very good purchase in my opinion.

They think that Allardyce wants Joey Barton as his replacement, which in turn means Reo Coker will probably go to Everton (as they are currently interested in Barton aswell).



My DVD collection

As a Toon fan (trust me its hard sometimes) `lol`, I`d rather keep Parker but i think he wants to go because a read somewhere that he feels the fans expectations are to high.
Cant say i would welcome the signing of Joey barton, yes he`s a good player but he reminds me a bit of Bellamy who was a pain in the arse. Hopefully Big Sam can sort him out like he seem`d to do with Anelka, Guess only time will tell. :¦

I`m shocked at the transfer of Parker, from a Newcastle perspective. He`s a player that can be relied on as the backbone of a top Premiership side, and yet Newcastle seem happy to let him go.

Musy admit its diserpointing but if a player wants to go i think you have to let them, and its his home club better than having an unhappy player :(

News appears to be

Parker to WHU for £7million

Reo-Coker looks likely to go to Villa for about the same amount

Barton to Newcastle for £5.5million

Barton allegedly picking up 70k per week at Newcastle. Dirty horrible little s*** needs to have 7 bells beaten out of him to make him wake up.

Has a lot of talent, but possibly the worst attitide going. When your own fans turn on you like they did with him you know that you have royally f***ed up.

Barton Trf - seems it has hit a small stumbling block over the last 12 hours or so. Still expected to go through but not a signed sealed and delivered situation just yet
