[32] Newcastle keen, that all?
---------------------------------
Posted Thursday, August 23, 2001 by bar-knee:
Newcastle Chronicle reports that the Geordies have put in a bid close to £10m - which
of course is good PR for the Cry-Babies after a Euro defeat.

[31] Just rumours at the moment

That Newcastle have put in a £10m bid for Andrew Cole. Utd officials are all away for
the Euro draw anyway but can't see the player going back whatever happens - after not
really taking to the Geordie culture, his family getting abused up there at a game -
would he really go back?
