In all fairness, Apple had agreed a $1bn deal with FIFA for it, however FIFA got greedy, thought that they could get more, and put it back out to tender, thinking that if they split the rights up by region then they could get more money. No one made a bid for it, Apple had lost faith in FIFA agreeing to a deal, and ultimately DAZN matched the deal that Apple had previously made for whole world distribution rights, which was funded through PIF’s investment in DAZN.

Her videos are really good but she was another one on twitter giving it the “we are Man Utd” when Mbeumo looks to be choosing them.

I like Sam Fender but I can’t think of many artists that connect with a club so much I know Ed Sheeran has a huge connection with Ipswich and the oasis - Man City. He wears the kit on stage, comes out to local hero, had his name on our Carabao cup, his merch is largely nufc themed and he even gets a lot of support from Wor Flags and I think that’s what rattles the Mackems so much

They always had a boro connection to me. IIRC Paul Smith supports Boro

Just presumed they were due to Paul’s accent. Know they reference Newcastle a lot. Did they meet at uni here?

Could it be that they hate Sam Fender so much cause he's synonymous with their biggest insecurity? That insecurity being that everybody outside the North East associates the region with geet canny Geordies decked in black and white. As a city and as a club we have our own distinct culture that is well known outside the region. How many southerners could tell you about geordie slang, Auf Wiedersehen Pet, stotties, Gazza, Sam Fender, Brown Ale vs. .......erm......Vaux?........the Nissan plant? I suppose publishing the Mackem Cewkbewk is a good start. But yeah, it goes some way to explaining their bitterness, the inferior half of the rivalry more often than not hates the better side more than the other way round. As much as most of us want their skidmark of a club to perish into the ether where it belongs, I get the feeling that a lot of us don't actually take them that seriously and they're more of a laughing stock than a rival whereas we embody everything they hate and our very existence tortures their cold, black souls. Nothing they can ever do, even winning 6 in a row against us, is ever going to change the fact that they are, always have been and always will be nothing .

No idea. Googling brings up Isak on £120k, Tonali on £135k. Bruno has just renewed his contract for a reported £160k and Joelinton £150k. Cunha is on £200k a week at Man U. I just think £120k a week is a pretty conservative estimate for a £60m player nowadays.

Aye Tonali was a damn good example on the previous page.

For Everton to do a Forest, they'll probably need to copy Forest and sail very close to the PSR wind. Moyes won the Conference League at West Ham but couldn't finish in the top half with Rice, Paqueta, and Jarrod Bowen. The following season, after Rice left and with 100M in the kitty, they conceded 74 goals. They beat us final day but that was probably nerves and our main two strikers not have a functioning leg between them.

Are Maximo Park Smoggies ? Paul Smith is from Billingham but Duncan Lloyd (founder) is from Derby, however the band were formed in Newcastle.

It definitely wouldn't take 80m to get Kulu Levy and most Spurs fans would drive him up here themselves for a lot less than that. Just my opinion but I think he's very overrated on here. Good player on his day. But them days aren't very often And even on his best days he's never an 80m player. Nowhere near

100%. PIF bailed them out because this was going to flop without significant incentives.

Their fewm is that he is a rising star and not just in the UK. Mega star no and he probably won't be either. The fact that he is a Geordie and a Newcastle fan, and he wants to promote that fact around the country (and the world), is absolutely making their fan base show an anger, which is even beyond their usual level of all things Newcastle related. If he was from the Sunderland area and a Sunderland fan, then they would be celebrating him as a massive lads fan () and that his music was out of this world. The fact that one musician has outraged an entire fan base (or just about) is so funny to witness. Multi page threads, whenever he has a new single or a new tour, spouting their anger and hate. Any of their fans posting stating they attended a concert and enjoyed it, is followed by a mass heretic demonstration against a fellow supporter.

We can (though the contract has to be signed on the 1st), but let's be honest when do we announce signings until the contract is signed. We have seen it take 3 or 4 days before an announcement, even when we know the player has had his medical - look at Botman. We don't do things quickly in terms of signing players.

BBC Introducing NE played some clips yesterday including an interview on BBC Breakfast the day after the takeover, and he was saying he was massively hung over as he and Johnny went down to the ground (where Johnny got his sax out on the statue) and someone gave him a load of CANS. He must have turned into a super fan quick. Edit: this was the interview they played:

While I think panic at this point is daft, we don’t need to wait until 1st July to sign players on 1st July

Still think most signings will happen after 30th June to be included within next years accounts. May see a signing before, but I suppose it depends on the knock on effect going forward and if we have any wiggle room.

it’d probably take £80m+ for Kulusevski but he’d be my #1 choice if it were possible.

Petition to rename toon25 as bollockless25 when Trafford becomes world class playing for us?

Probably more to do with them getting the World Cup in 2034. Scratching each other's back. FIFA are corrupt everyone knows that, totally different to us, where we know that the cartel and their premier league puppets, are just waiting for anything to pounce.

Probably not entirely unrelated to the corrupt Infantino giving Saudi the World Cup.
