theowlsman Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Previously, I'd have said he'd have been a good acquisition. However, having now got a better understanding of his mentality, and his lack of desire to play football, I'd rather forget all about him. He doesn't have a winner's attitude.

Mike Hunt Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I hope you're reading this Nile. You're an idiot. Three and a half years left on his contract suggests he is far from beeing an idiot . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonofbert2 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 He scored vital goals at vital moments for us. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
since59owe Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Three and a half years left of being on premiership wages whilst sitting at home chilling, and going out with the lads. Sums up football and footballers of the modern age. Ambition zero, paid to chill for rest of contract, its wrong so wrong ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tha_knows Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 How anybody can rate him is beyond me, his work effort was appalling, against Wycombe he was the worst player on the pitch, particularly the first half. He's just another typical young footballer who thinks because he earns a good wage, drives flashy cars and lives a luxury lifestyle, that hes untouchable, a real attitude problem like Ravel Morrison.

Guest Bournemouth Owl Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Pack him off to the Bluts, he would be good enough for them ..... but we are on the up and we cant carry a player like him ... we are going places now and his chance has well gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chow Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 can probs understand why he didnt want to leave to go to blackpool last season, but to us this season playing in front of big crowds and playing for team thats playing under positive attitude after been promoted is a head scratcher even if it was just a month or three on loan.

Fuzzy logics Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I think Nile made the right decision for us. But for the wrong reasons. The guy can barely speak let alone get us 20 a season! Thanks Nile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyOwl Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 He's just had his white range rover re-sprayed so it's black with a white stripe down the middle. Is he off to notts county? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airborne_rat_of_s6 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 He isn't get a move now is he with the window being shut?! Therefore a loan is is only option of getting games until it opens again. Best way of engineering a move is to go out on loan, play well and wait for the window to re-open. No part trying to force a club's hand when, in reality you are a bit-part player for the club you are employed by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Leeswfc3 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Why does it serve him right? He wants out, he doesn't want a loan move. He dunt want out, he wants to stay and fight for his place.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest locky Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I honestly didn't rate him last season. I think we already have better strikers at the club. . This n more this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 According to the Sunday Sun he turned a loan move down and is now out for 4 weeks. Serves him right, he is never going to get into the first team at Newcastle and the sooner he realises that the better for him and his career. http://www.sundaysun...79310-31796653/ NEWCASTLE outcast Nile Ranger has made the shock call to turn down a loan move to Championship side Sheffield Wednesday – and now faces up to a month out of action. Toon striker Ranger was wanted by Dave Jones earlier this month after a successful loan spell at Hillsborough last season, but the forward delayed a decision and the Owls grew frustrated before moving on to other targets. And the Sunday Sun can reveal his hopes of making any kind of impact this season have been hit by a knee injury that could rule him out for FOUR weeks. A despairing Alan Pardew has all but ruled out any chance of Ranger returning to first-team action at Newcastle, but the forward still has three-and-a-half years left on his five-year deal. He is almost certain to be made available for loan when he returns from injury, but Wednesday were the only club to make a firm offer over the summer and Newcastle bosses will be scratching their heads at his decision not to go back. Ranger could have joined Blackpool last season when the Tangerines had a seven-figure offer for the forward accepted, but he opted to try to fight for his Premier League career. Jesus - Saves him right??? I wasnt a fan and personally am glad he hasny come to us but that is not a well thought out comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrh Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Pretty happy he turned us down tbh, not seen much of maguire but would be last in the pecking order for me anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torryowl Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 his problem is he's on premiership money but no other prem club would want him so he as to take a hit on his wages which he wont do .that 5 year contract will make him a very rich man but will do nothing for his career .

barn_owl Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Jesus - Saves him right??? I wasnt a fan and personally am glad he hasny come to us but that is not a well thought out comment. Not the best thought out response!! Or are you saying that by not coming to Wednesday saves him. Right?! Perspective - We offer him the chance of first team football (or why get him) and he says either 'flip you I want to stay and fight for my place or 'flip you I think I can get full transfer in PL' Neither happens and he doesn't deserve what he gets? I dont wish injury upon anyone yet when the chance to play football comes along and you dont take it then Karma is a *****! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshTheOwl Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Surely you can understand him turning us down if we were only offering him a loan and he wants a full move away from the Tyne? He'd have been a good addition to the squad but there isnt a massive loss tbh, will be interested to see what happens with him in the next 2 years and see if he actually progresses and turns out to be the footballer that Newcastle thought they had first signed.
