If we splashed 12m on an unknown and inexperienced player (in terms of the Premiership) I'd question why we never went in for Bullard at half the price but double the Prem experience.
According to the Journal we wanted him but wouldnt pay his wages.
And yet we handed both Ameobi and Nicky Butt new deals...
It does read there are a lack of savvy business people at Newcastle.
Yes, but to be fair it was rumoured that Bullard wanted 60k a week would you pay that?
