  1. Is anything being directed at Newcastle, isn't it just Amnesty protesting (which it has done before) and Bein sports

    Sunderland

    Just started the first episode and the Donald "Edit" Charlie Methven is so much like David Brent. It is hilarious watching him talk about him self being a good leader and how the team will look up to him.
  3. Was there any type of questioning when they were trying for Manu?
  4. What does your whatsapp account say?
  5. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/competitions/premier-league/11916394/bruce-delighted-with-lazaro-signing?fbclid=IwAR1Bf_8lSXs842Bv6vVUGBVjA592J4a5-ruaHHGbV2s13Uh8QJNbC5g3uZA "Bruce delighted with Lazaro signing" Havent' seen anything from nufc.co.uk....
  6. Pardew led Newcastle to their best league finish in over 10 years. Pardew wasn't sacked so how is that comparable??
  7. Never sure if post like this is some sort of a humor or people are actually watching planes and helicopter traffic..

    Fabian Schär

    He is important, but the stats don't tell everything. The games he missed were: Spurs h - loss Cardiff a - draw Man City a - loss Arsenal h - loss Crystal Palace a - draw Leicester h - loss ManU a - loss Brighton h - loss Southampton a - draw Wolves h - loss Liverpool a - loss Chelsea a - loss Bournemouth a - draw Arsenal a - loss We could have changed a few losses to draw and draws to wins.
  9. Was that a left foot, right foot and a header hat trick? Not sure but think his first was with his right foot (second definitely was)
  10. That would be something to do that again. Saw a list on Chronicle about what clubs are spending in wages. According to that list, Newcastle was ranked 17th in the Premier league. So we are punching above our weight in terms of wage/league position ration. Add to that the Deloitte money league where Newcastle are ranked 19th in the world and 8th in the Premier league which shows that we should have plenty of room to invest. Hopefully the swiss-ramble blog will do an analysis of our accounts once they are release. Last years accounts were a bit sketchy including some accounting tricks.

    Rolando Aarons

    Seems to have started off well at Sheffield Wednesday. Hopefully he can stay fit and playing. He needs playing time to progress.
  12. I'm not English speaking by birth so this is a serious question, not a dig. But is "fret" actually a word? Always thought it was Pardews weird way of speaking the word threat.
  13. According to Deloitte Money league report, Newcastles revenue for 2017/2018 season is 178m pounds which is 19th highest in the world and 8th highest in the PL. The 91m is most likely from the Championship season.
  14. Aron Gunnarsson is important to the Cardiff team. Without him they have 2 points from 9 games. With him they have 23 points from 17 games. If he stays fit they have a change to survive.
  15. I don't think Ashley is valuing what Rafa has actually brought to the club. Fans started to believe in the club again, match attendance was increadable in the Championship. If Rafa leaves Newcastle will loose attendance, league position and might well get relegated again. It's to much of a risk to gamble with in my opinion. The only thing that I can think of stopping Ashley from investing in players is that he wants to sell badly (I'm hoping). But that is also a big gamble to pull the plug before you sell. See what happend to Villa and Sunderland, who both had owners wanting out and used the same tactic.
  16. Iceland with more dangerous opportunities in the first half... HUH!!! Croatia with not much to play for most likely with their thought on Denmark game.
  17. Considering his age, the position he plays in, his international record and his actual decent strike rate already in the PL. I think 20 million in today's market is undervaluing him. IMO we will struggle to find a player as valuable to our team up front as Fulham have if they buy him for that price. It's a crying shame Rafa doesn't rate him and the two just don't work together because this lad is going to come back and bite us in the bum. Yeah, think he would be extra motivated to score against us having not gotten enough opportunities. I made my peace with this situation, he does not fit into Rafa's system and the choice between Rafa and Mitro is easy.
  18. As I said, Fulham would not be in the Premier League without him. 20m is a fair price in today's market. Was looking at Villatalk today and they seem to think that Grealish is worth 50m, so we have lot to learn about being unrelistic.
  19. I'm going to take the unpopular opinion, Ramos did nothing wrong there, it's part of football and was a accident. https://www.facebook.com/allualhaaan/videos/605104756522787/?hc_location=ufi
  20. Fulham would not be joining the Premier league without the contribution of Mitrovic.
  21. Player sales do not come into Turnover and are therefore not a part of the operating loss of 90,9m. Included in the Operating loss is wages, other expenses, player amortisation and depreciation. Player sales however do come into Loss after Tax along with Taxation credit and interests.
  22. On one hand I'm glad he's not going. 1) Facing England will be easier 2) He will be rested for Newcastle On the other hand, it is a problem that playing for Newcastle somehow excludes you from contention for playing for England. Who was the last Newcastle player who played for England?
