Ciaran Clark D Free agent b.1989

How can anybody still call it a "famine" with a straight face?

But that's a discussion for another day.

Quite disheartening that there has been no PL move yet for any of our players. I suspect Brady will eventually move to a bottom half team but I think Hendrick and Duffy will remain in the Championship. And it looks almost certain Clark will. I even thought Hoolahan would've had an outside chance at a move but that's not to be.

On the upside Darron Gibson is on course to have a full pre-season. And Tommie Hoban has an outside chance of featuring for Watford. And the likes of O'Kane and McGeady haven't been cut loose yet.

Would like to see Lenihan get a chance at Hull but I suspect Bruce leaving and someone like Zola coming in won't do the chances of that much good.

Well there have been Premier League moves for Hendrick but they were knocked back by a club who have the financial resources to drive a hard bargain for a player they don't want to lose. Brady is in a similar situation - there's interest but he's worth more to a financially strong club like Norwich than he is to the teams interested in buying him. Some of those players may need to do another season in the Championship and see how they're set then but it's not necessarily a bad thing. On the other hand, there's still another month to go and most Premier League teams do their business late.

Maybe he was mixing up Ireland and the Ukraine.

Clark to Newcastle. Certainly a road back to the Premiership but whether he'll be playing regularly is another matter.

How does anyone mix up Donegal and Derry?

Their all the way up there. No time for details. Action is what we need. Not facts.

signing confirmed, five year deal: http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20160...281670_5776745

No sign of him tonight against Fulham

First start for him at Newcastle tonight

Won 4-1. Thus presume he had a decent game.
Better then Blackburn's Shane Duffy who got two own goals!

Guess who gave away a penalty for Newcastle which Reading scored from?;)

Looked like a harsh enough decision in fairness.

Looked clumsy enough to me on one viewing, after a dreadful touch got him into trouble.

Delight at his Magpies' bow, apparently: http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20160...281670_5816944

He's a liability, will always make goal conceding errors.

Look at how the joker performed at the Euros, dreadful!

I still like him though and think he's better than our other options, bar O'Shea but time is catching up with him obviously. He had a poor second half against Belgium, really poor, but he was good in his other one and a half games, and excellent in the B&H playoff and Swiss friendly.

Scored Newcastle's fourth in a 6-0 win at QPR. No sign of Daryl Murphy in their squad.

Goal and an assist tonight, Newcastle thrashed QPR 6-0 at Loftus Road
Shodipo probably happy he didn't get off the bench for the home side
