That, I suppose, is what 'they' might say, but all of the Newcastle Postcode areas have Newcastle ("NE") postcodes. I would imagine they probably know this, but cannot bring themselves to admit it.

 

 

If they say this, how would they justify/describe the meaning of the "SR" postcode

Do we play any of the teams in Europe directly after a European game?

Chelsea (A) 26/10 if they qualify for UConf League group matches - matchday 2 is 24/10 

Opening: Liverpool (A)

Boxing Day: Man Utd (A)

Final day: Everton (A)

Not the first time we've started and finished with an away game 

For match day, he's made an assumption of a 3.3% increase on previous FY - that was a rough estimate of ST % increase, would think even though we had the same number of games the revenue from those extra CL games would be higher - we also introduced more corporate areas at significant increased prices so I'd expect the figure hes quoted to be low in comparison to the actual figure.

Also FFP/PSR allowables (whatever the hell they are now - infrastructure, woman's team etc etc) are not listed so again, the figure we "need to sell to be complient" could be much lower

John Carver too, would like to see that appointment - Just show the owner his "best coach in the Premier League" interview and jobs a good 'un for him

The Premier league should be looking into that mind fair market value would be what we were getting. They're bottom of the table dross. 

Dont think its an APT, even under the new vague & wide ranging rules introduced in feb, so FMV doesn't apply

Sad, in fact - Maybe time to rename/rebrand themselves to something more fitting:  SMB AFC perhaps

Isn’t ours 30 + sales?

This guy quoted said it was £30m base + sales (he estimates £10m worth).  Nee idea if he's ITK or not, never heard of him until today. Most other reports seem to say its nearer £40m/yr base.

He was playing in that infamous FA Cup game when Tranmere brought on a sub for a player who had been sent off

 

Peter Reid was raging

Lol, forgot about this, hilarious

Associated Party Transaction restrictions were brought in after the date period of their charges i think. This case could probably bankrupt the PL though

Article states Premier League legal bill has quadrupled from £5m/yr to £20m and their "legal team" have been exclusively focused on a response to this charge rather than working on the 115 charges

Could possibly explain why some of the more obvious sponsorship opportunities for us havent been taken yet.

Indeed - club's being playing the long game here 

Quote

"The claim says the rules were imposed at the instigation of certain rival clubs reacting to the Saudi takeover of Newcastle, with the aim to “safeguard their own commercial advantages”. They say rivals were seeking to limit deals from companies in the Gulf region, citing a quote from a senior executive from another club."

There we have it, what we've known all along - sod competition unless you one of the mostly red cartel

Exhibition was actually a pretty decent drink. Everything else that came from S&N though was absolute piss.

 

The best thing to come out of the Scottish & Newcastle brewery was this advert for McEwan's Lager. Absolutely epic & simply wouldn't be made today.

 

 

Canny ad, Always liked this one for Exhibition 

Wondering if any player would be reluctant to make the move to Man City this summer, with the 115 charges hearings due and the potential of possible relegation?  Bookies have them at 25/1 so they're covering their arses, so I'd expect players moving there to do the same.  Bruno needs to get a buy-back clause to us inserted if he does go 

Meaningless game but feel sorry for those who paid to go and those who chucked £4.99 to watch online 

I know it was a low key friendly today, but had another good game.  Having a proper pre-season with Howe will hopefully work wonders for him - Looking forward to see how this lad progresses next season.

Christ my first impressions of him were completely wrong, what an absolute and utterly fantastic human being he is. If you can't love such a great lad you'll never love anything. 

 

 

 

Same!  Knew the kid had ability but thought his attitude, albeit seen from afar, looked very suspect. How wrong I was an will happily admit it.  Top Top player and great person.  Quite a deep thinker as too as the recent overlap episode showed.  Potential future NUFC captain imho.

There will be plenty when the prices are jumping 30% for people who were on the 10 year deal

Be more than 30%: £467 -> £764 (assuming another 5% average price hike next season) so that'll be near on a 64% increase for a seat in the gallowgate for those coming off the "10 year" deal
