In every business, we knows it's important to buy low, sell high to make profit! But sometimes we will need to cut lost but not when the stock is still red hot rite!?
Andy Carroll deal 'in hands of Mike Ashley and Liverpool board'
Alan Pardew has revealed Newcastle's attempt to bring Andy Carroll back to Tyneside is in the hands of chairman Mike Ashley and the Liverpool board.
The England forward privately favours a move back to Newcastle, after being surprised by Liverpool's decision to cut their losses on the £35m striker.
Newcastle are expected to return with an improved loan offer for Carroll, 23, having seen an initial bid turned down.
"It will be what it will be," Pardew told the Newcastle Evening Chronicle.
"That whole process is a little bit more involved with the chairman and the board at Liverpool.
"We've got a great team here, a great squad, and if Andy Carroll comes it'll only add to us."
Newcastle initially only offered to pay part of Carroll's £80,000-a-week wages. They also wanted to pay £13m if he then signed a permanant deal, although the Reds are understood to want at least £20m.
Liverpool's asking price is likely to put Newcastle's determination to bring Carroll back to the club to the test, with Ashley unable and unwilling to meet that figure. But there remains a strong possibility a compromise will be reached.
The Newcastle hierarchy have retained their admiration for Carroll since he left for Liverpool in 2011.
"It's simple, really. Sometimes transfers are done at corporate level. I'm slightly detached from that," Pardew added.
"It's been said that he's available, and if we're involved then we'll be involved because of the figures, not anything else, because we know he's good enough. I'm slightly detached from it."
Carroll was not with the Liverpool squad as they left for a pre-season tour of North America on Monday having been granted an extended holiday after Euro 2012. The England international is due to join up with the squad on 23 July, alongside other internationals such as captain Steven Gerrard.
Carroll struggled with Liverpool until belatedly finding both form and goals towards the end of last season.
Why can't the board just say that deep down in their hearts, they are Newcastle fan!!! What a Good Samaritan$.
