    Dixon sounds giddy compared to how Lawrenson used to. Went on like he was doing us a favour even watching it. 

    Oh god I'd managed to forget that somehow. Watching a match with Lolro on was something you'd need a stiff drink at the start of each half to get through.

    Yeah totally, just surprised Howe said it in public as he normally doesn't really 

     

    It's definitely a departure from Howe just focusing on on-the-field matters, I think there's an element of what @Nepharite said above :

    Could Howe not have been told by the board to say something like this, in a coordinated effort to highlight how Newcastle have to sell their better players to progress? I think this is a holistic approach from the club to show FFP for what it truly is. starting with Ashworth's interview. Then Eale's the other week. Now Eddie with this emotive admission. All ramping up the media hype to look at the constraints that us and the likes of Villa, Brighton et al are under.

    It doesn't matter if they’re gay. One in 10 are.

     

    Seems quite high. 

     

    Half of all people are women, didn't see many tits in the showers though. 

  4. One of the most important signings for out club in the past 20 years, probably in my lifetime to be honest.

     

    The nature of FFP is that football's been turned into an investment business. You've just got to sell when you can, and keep replacing with players with potential to hopefully generate a profit. It really is just a cutthroat business nowadays.

     

    I didn't see him leaving us, I thought he would retire here. Having a player of Livramento's quality waiting in the wings definitely makes this deal more palatable but I'd be sad to see him go. Trippier's been poor the last few games but overall the quality he's brought to our team through both off and on the pitch has been nothing short of world class.

     

    If you are off Tripps, thank you for giving us some of your best years. You're a class act.
