While I agree with this, it is frustrating when you can see the door to the champions league and all the riches that come with it is ajar, and the club doesn't really make any attempt to strengthen.

We can empathise of course.

Although we hadn't just come up from the second tier. They're greedy bells who think they're a big club without ever in their history being a big club.

true but sometimes u need to sell to buy and like bryan said it might just be a blessing for them they didnt sell anyone, again though its the newcastle fans thinking they are bigger than they are. if u look at there starting 11 i still dont know how they finished as high as they did last year,

Sold £16m worth, spent £16m apparently.

I guess at a push with signing on fees and loan fees you could say we have spent 16 mill, although the incoming figure should rise as Rodwell progresses.

Well I'm not disputing that!

I thought you where talking about us at first and was going to go on a bit of a rant but then realised you meant Newcastle and laughed 'cause we're gonna barge through the afore mentioned door.

If you do your sums you'll see that just about the same amount money received on players sold has been spent on players coming in. What does that say about the state of the clubs finances?

That we sell to buy

I think your wrong here.

I havent done the sums properly, but I think theres around a difference of 25m Net, without taking into account any fee for our new fella, provided its all sorted of course.

Lets not turn this thread into another Bill Kenwright/Board debate guys.

Michael Owen is still a free agent....

 

[Neiler]

Owen I could live with.

Adam I couldnt have.

Personally, I think we are a tiny bit "light" upfront, in terms of Prem experience, so I honestly wouldnt be surprised, but all the "right" people have said we have ZERO interest, so fingers crossed.

So the club has spent more than came it? Even better then.
