    Joelinton

    This one has Panic buy written all over it.... whats that? we have been after him since February?... Exactly.

    Joelinton

    1 down 7 more quality players and new quality manger, owner and Charley replacement to go.
  3. If we made Bruce resign and we get someone else lol
  4. More likely Mike has asked him to hold it up. Might be a chance of Joelinton going through otherwise.
  5. A goal or assist every 178 minutes tbf. West Ham would be getting far better value in Sebastian Haller at the same price. Haller is already the best striker of his type & age in Europe. Joelinton is much more raw/erratic finisher plus points though powerful/fast/can play anywhere in a front 3 Fair. Joelinton at 22 looks decent to be fair. His stats weren't that much worse than Rondon and Perez overall this year. Seems a crazy price but he has all the attributes to be a bloody quality player.. for us to sell at a profit.
  6. Bruce just arrived in China to take training..
  7. Incredible how optimistic this place is in an alternate reality Rafa stayed. If we had signed rondon bought another striker winger quality cm and full backs we would be hoping for top 10 this year. Now we are hoping for bottom 3.
  8. No its played to perfection. Will be a short rolling contract, small wages.. all the hallmarks to give fans hope its short term and the takeover is still a possibility with an easy to shift manager. Reality is he has gone as cheap as possible and played a blunder to keep a few hopeful fans still hooked on the SDFC smack.
  9. The irony that Bruce will get the money Rafa didnt and they will probably lift the age limit embargo so his son could come.
  10. 2.5m? We've absolutely Jose'd them there.
  11. Schar out Alex Bruce in.
  12. They will push the geordie rhetoric to death and how dummett, colback and longstaff are the future. British core of the team but dont vote leave. We are absolute guff.
  13. http://www.insidefutbol.com/2019/07/15/newcastle-yet-to-agree-compensation-for-steve-bruces-assistants/428820/ Come now Steve you know that's not part of the deal. We said one coach but that was before we knew you'd cost more than 1m .
  14. Carver returning to the youth set up?
  15. The perfect rebound. Waking up and realizing it wasnt a dream.
  16. 4m plus 1m wages. Still saving from Rafa.
  17. He would be a few hundred million out of pocket if we went down to league 2. Yeah but he isnt spending anything. The extra money is a bonus but it wont affect him.
  18. Yeah we know Ashley doesn't care. We could go down to league 2 and he isn't out of pocket. He loves the gamble of seeing how little he can spend and how far he can push the envelope without us getting relegated. If we do, ho hey, we now have a championship squad and manager that can likely keep us there for the next few years.
  19. This summer is the gift that just keeps giving. That contract for Bruce if true, feck me. Why would he even take it. Mentalist. Ashley is laughing in his face before he even gets here. Only person taking this job is anther JFK.
  20. Makes the early Gary Rowett, Monk and Hudson talk seem very plausible indeed. We aren't hiring anyone that will cost money or isn't easy to sack off.

    Graham Carr

    Exactly Its basically having the worlds best goalie with the worlds shittest defence. Our scouts are sandwiched between shit manager that will take their identified players backward and a boardroom that fuck up any approach to targets they line up.
  22. Isn't he a good fit for a mid-table Champsionship side? Think they would have been top 8 this year. Probably top 4 if he goes
