Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

[Tigger]

Very realistic chance of them going down this year, that would be beautiful.

 

[Simon Buttle]

They won't though. They do that cos of budget limitations. These will just aim high straight away.

I know why but they are not going to be able to start throwing mega wages at players as we well know, there are rules in place to stop the likes of them and us from catching the big boys regardless of how much they spend. I am not expecting the lie of the land to change anytime soon tbh despite what the barcodes fans might think. We will see.

Don't tell me you watch union mate?

Load of yorkshire and southern ponces playing dirge stuff.

My lad plays scrum half for one of the best teams in his age group in the North West.

I’ve grown to love it and much prefer watching his rugby team, to watching his footy team now.

There’s no hiding place on a rugby pitch.

With respect mate we bought around 500m worth of players in 4 years and doubled our wage bill from 86m to 162m.

If we spent better the rules wouldnt have mattered.

They'll try to frame it like this isn't a morally wrong thing but it certainly is pretty odious.

My guess is they will get shut of Steve Bruce soon enough and the next manager will bring one or two new players in January.

Agree, they are miles off and as we have shown throwing money at a job with no real plan guarantees nothing. The managerial/dof role will be the real statement of where they are heading.

No more odious than Usmanov investing in us, no more odious than the Yanks investing in Liverpool, the Glaziers at United.

Find me a billionaire who isnt morally corrupt.

 

[Nymzee]

Will take them years to become relevant again.

 

[Blueclouds]

Doesn't matter how much Newcastle spent, from 2023, clubs can still make cl if they are not in the top 4 due to history. Football is screwed.

Then let's see if they make a better job of spending money than we did (not difficult tbh)

 

[JimmyJeffers]

lol There’s fans celebrating outside st James’!

Nar they probably wont.

It took City a long, long time and that was without any restrictions.

Can you blame them? We were all elated when we got bought out. It's an exciting time as fan.

It's Newcastle though. Took City years.
