Wenger hasn't ruled out moving for Jenas, saying that "for the moment" he hasn't made a bid for him.

There are stong rumours that Newcastle could soon be taken over.

BBC:

quote:

Shares in Newcastle United rallied nearly 18% on Monday amid speculation of a takeover bid for the club. The club's former chairman, businessman Sir John Hall, told the stock market that an unnamed party had showed an interest in buying up his 28.5% stake. Shares are now at their highest level for four years, valuing them at £75.6m. In a statement to the London Stock Exchange, Sir John said he had received an approach "which may, or may not" lead to a disposal of his stake.

Noone knows who the bidder is. There are rumours that it could be Graham Wylie, a Geordie, Newcastle fan and Newcastle season-ticket holder. He owns Sage and is said to have about 300M, although he was labelled as Tyneside's first billionaire. There are also suggestions of a consortium bidding though, possibly from Asia. The last thing we want is a Malcolm Glazer situation developing, but Wylie could be a big improvement on Shepherd and Hall who have been filtering millions out of Newcastle in dividends for years and have made the club a public laughing stock. An Abramovich-style takeover is most unlikely. Freddy Shepherd has been buying up a lot of shares lately and something has been brewing for a while.

This is potentially massive news for the club, it all depends on whether Hall and Shepherd are prepared to sell, and just who exactly is trying to buy up the club. Prepare yourselves for a takeover people.

bar the 2 goals, I think newcastle showed glimpses today. Luque was a threat and his obvious lack of match fitness showed, he's classy tho & will come through it. Losing Dyer & Emre was awful, Ameobi isn't good enough imho, i'd have had milner on for dyer & look for another centre back. Bar that, it was a better performance, and results will follow if you stick to it

yeah i think newcastles first half was terrific but you could see the midfield lost some of its strength when emre left. and bowyer also doesnt deserve to be in the first 11, jenas should have been on from the start.

nice one for getting owen, u have made sum good signings. makes the prem more balnced. i didnt want looserpool getting him back.

1. Sign Michael Owen
2. Sell Jermaine Jenas to Spurs for 8/9 million (YAY!)
3. Re-sign Norberto Solano (meant to be a done deal!) - OMFG! to have Solano back would be the best thing ever!
