Exactly. Wages are just a big of an issue for us along with the huge fees being asked.

Back in the day you'd usually see a back page headline and accompanying puff piece about Shola's latest comeback from injury - "IT'S SHO TIME" or "LET'S GET THIS SHO ON THE ROAD" to fill the summer column inches. Bet they were gutted when he left.

It’s not just spending on transfers. The cartel put in place you can only have a max of 70% of turnover towards wages. We must be sailing close to that.

Like what? What new insight is there ever in football? Give me an example of what you’d expect?

Sorry, what I meant to say was I can't reveal my sources otherwise I'll get them into trouble

Literally just Joel Bland (the colleague) having been on the phone to Craig Hope

And you know the oil-money sides, Real, Chelsea will go for it. Does it mean the team gets to win the Gold Badge for the next 4 years? You know Florentino is going to make Real being the most successful side in CWC history part of Madrid lore. Winning this would have them way ahead of anyone else

They put content out and that content will be commented on. Surely its only natural.

Itk alert

good one . FFP has us by the balls. We can thank the cartel for that, we probably have 100m max to cover gk, cb, rw, back up striker which is nothing really. Only way I can see us making a big deal now is selling the likes of Gordon for 60/70m. @Geogaddi

Football in the summer is alright in my book. Especially if it knackers some big 6 clubs 😂

But we already knew about it? Its not new information to get your knickers in a twist about

Players are going to do the best they can. It's top level football. It's going to be fun.

I never bought into it before, but I’m convinced the club are using the local journos this summer.

Some actual new insights ?

It’s going to be complete shite, players are going to be burnt out and phoning it in. There’ll be huge numbers of dud games and the financial nonsense associated with it is a disaster for football. Can’t wait for it to be over and won’t be watching a minute of it

Diomande can pass and win his headers. I approve.

What do posters actually expect to read from a journalist probably required to do a piece per day on NUFC as per their contracts? Always baffles me the grief they get

Before the season even ended Eddie said we can’t afford established names because of the wages involved. We’d have been well aware long ago that Mbuemo was a no go. There’s no way it’s just come out of the blue for the club. He said we need the ones a rung below the established players who we can then develop.

Because the club have actually confirmed it?

Good.

Unless Ratty can his shares sell onto another investor this looks like a terrible deal for him, he's bought a third of a car, he's in charge of keeping in running and dealing with all the shit, then the Glazers get to take it out every weekend and have a blast.

Pretty sure he writes that article at least once a transfer window. It's his party trick at this point.

Steady on, it's not quite Ashley bad!
