I think Big Sam managed to get a tune out of him, whereas Pardew didn't...

Townsend became a classic case of "if you work hard, regardless of quality the fans will like you" . He was never the best under Big Sam, but his presence was definitely recognised through his endless running.

I like Townsend, trouble is he blows hot and cold far too much for a premiership player. If we can get 20m we should take it and look at Oliver Burke or Demerai Gray He was pretty s*** under Pardew as was most of the team. Excellent second half of the season.

Just can't see why any player would even consider leaving their large contract living in London, playing in the premier league to go and live and play in Newcastle.

Very much depends on their playing situation at their respective clubs and what Newcaastle can offer them both on the playing side and terms. Also there are some lovely places outside Newcastle where footballers live IE Ponteland,Northumberland. And of course Newcastle play in front of 50,000 passionate supporters. So a few factors involved regarding transfers from London to Newcastle.

I have visited lovely areas in the North-West ie Hale, Bowdon,Prestbury,Alderley Edge,Wilmslow etc.
