Soon after taking charge of Newcastle, I noticed one MASSIVE thing. First day of the season, St James' Park, Sunderland are in toon \o/ And with that in mind the building began.
The transfer market was active and bids went in for numerous players. Danny Murphy turned me down for that lot down the road, Sunderland. Darren Bent stayed down South and moved to Spurs, Emmanuel Eboue snubbed me completely and stayed at Arsenal despite cleary not being wanted by the Gunners.
With bed time looming on session one I managed to seal my first deal.
Wilfred Bouma joined from Aston Villa for a poultry £2.5M. He would fit into my side perfectly as the heavyweight full back I'm looking for.
Session two brough a couple more loan signings.
Theo Walcott and
Jeremie Alliadiere came in from Arsenal, both on season long deals. Theo will provide cover for James Milner and Jeremie will keep the bench warm for new boy Viduka and whoever his strike partner will be.
I'll hopefully be signing and right back and a striker before the start of the season and maybe bringing in some cover for young Steven Taylor, with Sol Campbell being top of my wish list.
