Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

Best around???

They are the biggest bottlers in the CL with what they spent, what is it 900 million net in 8 seasons I recently saw, they in 10 years have not had a single defining scalp in the CL, when they go against one of the Giants they get spanked the same way they do when they go up against a minnow in the knockouts.

Remember Guardiola post fa cup final last year getting angry and flustered when a reporter asked him about his reported wages being more than on the official turnover.
You really don't like City do you?
 

A selection of some of the very best from the last series of Newcastle Are Taking Over The World, enjoy x

We have missed the boat big time - the recent collapses of Utd, Chelsea and Arsenal and the arab royals sense opportunity to gatecrash the top 4/ CL Cash cow.

We're stuck with Walter Mitty and Kenwright whilst Newcastle and Leeds could be about to become the next Man City/PSG.

Depressing!
Here we go....

While we have Farhad Moshiri and his voodoo Army.
Those Oil states buying like crazy, PSG, City, now Newcastle, also read in last few months they are interested for Leeds and Roma in Italy.
This is massive. They could go a long way now with that sort of investment.
We on the other hand will just be pushed further down the pan with that fraud Moshiri around. Best we can hope for is 8th/9th position unless he gets the finger out.
Why would an investor put his money into a Club and then have to pay another 1/2 billion out for a new stadium? Money that could be spent on buying players for a club like Newcastle to make them compete. They already have a great Stadium. Buy into us, spend millions on players to make us compete and then have to wait years for the Stadium. FFP would play a part too. We’d be treading water until the new stadium would be complete. Then revenues, sponsorship deals etc etc would take us into the big time. Newcastle have head start on us. At least a year start on us.
Newcastle have finished in the top two twice and the top four way more times than Everton or Villa ever have in the premier league era to be fair.

As much as I hate to say it, a lot of our fans are really bitter towards Newcastle and it smacks of jealousy.
Reps of the Shiekh confirm the talks are genuine and ongoing.

There goes any last hope of playing european football/winning a trophy.

Good luck competing with 2x Man City's and the rest of the top 6.

I wonder if this may put a dent in Moshiri's ambitions? I imagine once the new ground is built he'll want to sell for a profit and get our of here ASAP
Net worth of £118bn lol

We’re fine with Moshiri and his £1.5bn. Maybe we can get to a League Cup semi every few years.
This is now looking likely to happen, will potentially lift them right into the top bracket of premier league clubs.


Seems to be too much in it for it to be complete BS

Confirmed by the buyers that they are in talks and a takeover is very likely. This sheik is loaded. Very bad news for us as we will get left further behind.
Another super rich football club...just what we need.

The odds on us ever becoming something good get even slimmer.
Why are we cursed? Why do we get false dawns?
Usmanov is an absolute pikey compared to these lads.
 
If it happens, it happens but my word, the undies that get dropped in here.

Barely any of their fans take it seriously and yet you've got lads calling for the end of days on the GrandOldTeam forum because they may or may not knock us off our top ten perch.

Remember when people were absolutely gutted Villa got promoted because they were scared of them?
 

Can’t believe they’ve done better business than us for the 4th season running yet have finished below us every single time. It’s all because Yarmolenko is injured though according to @Keiran

He`s currently locked in a darkened room, with the Leonard Cohen records on full belt, rocking backwards and forwards due to the demise of his one true love, Eddie Howe lol
