LegendofCoop 17,369 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 You know what's coming nexthttp://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11095_6969133,00.htmlSky Sports sources understand that Newcastle captain Kevin Nolan has rejected a new contract, while Alan Smith has been told he can leave St James' Park. Nolan, who has two years left on his current terms, is understood to have been offered a new deal two weeks ago. But it is reported that the 28-year-old turned down Newcastle's offer of a two-year extension because he wanted an improved five years. The club's manager, Alan Pardew, will worried by Nolan's decision, which comes in the wake of Joey Barton's refusal to commit his long-term future. At the same time, Pardew is continuing to reshape the squad he inherited after taking over in December and he has told Smith that he is free to look for a new club. The 30-year-old played just 14 matches last season after suffering from injury and losing his place in the team to Cheik Tiote. News of Smith's departure could interest West Ham and their new boss, Sam Allardyce, who took the player to Newcastle when manager in 2007. Pardew also released Sol Campbell and Shefki Kuqi in May as he looks to build a squad capable of competing for a place in Europe next season. Would take Nolan in a heartbeat though!

SirWalterSmithLegend 206 Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Nolan is some player. Smith was an outstanding striker until someone put him in midfield and basically ruined his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a poor generalisation to me, from them. If Leeds pursue their interest, one major issue could be how much of Smith’s reported £60,000-a-week salary Newcastle would pay. Leeds are also being linked with a return for Jonathan Woodgate, whom Spurs want to loan to a Championship club. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/leeds-united/8244710/Alan-Smith-the-former-Leeds-United-favourite-could-make-a-surprise-return-to-Elland-Road.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
