I suppose it depends what happened in the other two years of the three that are covered by FFP?

SJP and the Arena Site are both in the City Centre. My response was just to clarify that fact, as someone (not sure who) referred to NUFC "staying in the City", to which I said . . NO, not just in "the City", they need to stay in the CITY CENTRE !!! They are two very different places. I live in the City, but I am over five miles from the City Centre. That's all !

The Club don't just want to stay in the City, they (quite rightly) want to stay in the City Centre.

More like a Shanty Town !!

One thing is for sure SJP is certainly not a brutalist building. Interestingly, the 1973 newly-built East Stand does have a 'hint' of brutalism in its use of materials for its construction.

I agree and have said the same previously, we have probably already got the best out of Ashworth. He is a systems and organiser person. So . . . thanks and goodbye (and thanks for the £20M) !!!!!!

Interesting on Total Sport (on Radio Newcastle) last night. A bloke called "Marco Gabbiadini" on there always strongly defends Sunderland Football Club. He always has and always exaggerates their "strengths" as a club and appears to live on his own planet. Yesterday it became apparent that he has finally accepted the realities of where Sunderland football club actually sits. He talked a fair bit about Sunderland, saying "where we are and how we need to buy young players to always sell on to big clubs - that is what we do". Seems like the penny has dropped - with one of their loudest mouths, at least !!!

Since the club took them over they were immediately promoted as champions last season from the 4th 'tier' to the 3rd tier, where they are now. They will be promoted as champions again this season, to the "2nd tier" which (like the mens 2nd Division) is called "The Championship". Next season I am certain their intention will be promoted again immediately, this time to the top tier which is called "The Woman's Super League" / WSL.

There will be very many top quality DoFs around Europe and the world who will be after our DoF post. Just because Ashworth suddenly decides he doesn't want it and refuses to finish off what he has started, doesn't mean that ANYONE else will agree with him!

"backtracks and ends on the dole" more like. I cannot imagine any of our owners would touch him with a bargpole now !!!

I like that scene !!! I like it V E R Y much !!!!!!!

Seemingly, we need to "grow up" - https://strettynews.com/2024/02/21/sir-jim-ratcliffe-urges-newcastle-to-grow-up-following-absurd-sporting-director-demands/

Logically, any income we get from his move to Manchester will be "income" to the club and will increase our turnover figure for FFP. It doesn't matter that it might get called "compensation" I do not see how it can be recorded as anything other than income, in the accounts.

Money the club receives when players are sold is exactly the same when another staff member leaves, though the latter amount is rarely very large (though it will be large on this occasion). So yes, it is revenue, and will therefore will count as such for FFP

Pretty much everything, certainly all of the hotels on the south side of the Tyne, as well as the newly planned Conference Centre and Arena, describe themselves as "NewcastleGateshead" . . . https://www.hok.com/news/2020-11/new-arena-exhibition-center-and-hotel-approved-for-newcastlegateshead-quays/

There are some University buildings amongst all of the buildings, but Helix is by no means a 'campus' !!

This?

Knowledge.

The Newcastle Arena site is no longer available. Our current City Centre location is the BEST one we could ever have. Just 'watch this space' for the very first real evidence of our hugely wealthy owners spending M A S S I V E amounts on our club as SJP is extended and transformed. Just remember who we now are and sit back and enjoy the ride.

What about when it is -3 in January on the Thames? It is like that there more often than it is here.

The long-standing "Quayside West" housing proposed for this location always made it an unlikely option, even when enlarged after the Newcastle Arena moves out . . .

The basic plan is that there will eventually be NO bigger club than Newcastle United. It seems inevitable to me that this will happen, but we face many (often deliberate and specific) obstacles put in our way, so it will take a long time. We will get there.

Yes, the equivalent of the "EFL Trophy" in the mens game, that Sunderland played in.
