  1. So much more enjoyable on mute, he'll be giving us stats on Tindells left bollock by the end of the game.
  2. If they think he’s a level above what we can currently recruit and also falls into the category of a position we would ideally improve next summer I think they’ll pull the trigger now while we can get him and use budget from summer 2023. With FFP there is quite a lot flexibility. The ‘budget’ may well be for the positions they’ve identified for this season. Paqueta might be a too good to pass and paid for outside of the arbitrary budget for this summer. pure guesswork like
  3. A mate got 500th and an error message when it ticked to his turn. He re-queued and when he eventually got on it was like Wack-a-mole with seats popping up as available for a split second but being taken by someone else logged in. Not sure if he gave up or they sold out but he didn’t manage to get one.
  4. Build a golf course and the Saudis can pay a small fortune to the club to host LIV events there
  5. Can Broja play on the right in the above formation?
  6. Getting offended by something trivial or over exaggerating your offence; particularly in a debate or conversation in order to derail it.
  7. We conceded 20 goals from Jan 1st and managed to score 25. Our defence was already top half during that period, we need goals badly. If the budget was 90mil I can’t see them spending £70m of it on a GK, LB & CB.
  8. Bottom line is we need to be spending more then the teams we are hoping to overtake. Assuming a broadly equal success rate in the market.
  9. Wishful thinking but I do hope they’ll spend to this so called limit on the essential upgrades and then perhaps use it as a bargaining position to get 1 or 2 more in. ‘Luxury’ players if they can get them at the right price; Paqueta for example. ‘We’re happy with our window but we’ll take him at £X’
  10. Fucking hell I would have thought a Newcastle forum would be one of the places where the term daft cunt would be taken as a benign jibe. Some pearl clutching going on here.
  11. Yeah xG is a metric which shows a players ability to get into goal scoring positions & his team’s ability to get him the ball in those positions. Comparing xG with actual goals scored should give an idea on the players finishing ability.
  12. Well that makes more sense, what a doyle
  13. 37 quid for priority on 1 game, seems kinda bad to me. Most people would be buying memberships solely for that; puts the cost of the ticket for the game above £70 and then you’ve got a useless membership for the rest of the season. I kind of get the idea, should be ~5 games.
  14. This isn’t a NUST issue as I believe the 1 person per seat is a national rule for safety
  15. He’s said the tout came round while they were still in the ground and collected the card
  16. Managed to get one in the Milburn between 3 of us (shared). We only had 1 eligible supporter number due to always booking together through the same account. Blind luck, we all tried and one got a number in the 600s
  17. This would be really solid and fits with the evolution mantra. Maybe they’ll splurge on paqueta late on if we can’t get Eriksen.
  18. If signings are amortised over the length of contracts (for FFP) and we plan to make big improvements to our commercial deals next year then I don't see it as such a major hurdle to splash out this summer should the right players become available. We'd only really be stretching the budget for the initial year of purchase & if these signings help us push for europe earlier they pay for themselves.
  19. BoSelecta

    Nick Pope

    Completely agree with this observation of Dubravka, hopefully one of the key areas Pope can improve us in.
  20. I believe you can transfer a ticket by providing a death certificate, a mate did it a few months back.
