I don’t think anyone was saying he was good in his time here, the consensus is that he didn’t click at NUFC But he was decent for his previous clubs, is doing well for his current club and barely dented the balance sheet in his short time here Sometimes signings just don’t work out, it doesn’t mean he’s a dogshit player who was ready for the knackers yard which is what a lot of Newcastle fans were claiming

Bournemouth beat Arsenal last week so if Arsenal beat Liverpool tomorrow then Bournemouth are better than Liverpool but Bournemouth drew with Villa today and Villa beat Bayern two weeks ago so would Bournemouth win the Bundesliga if they relocated to Dortmund and called themselves Borussiamouth ?

Wonder if Chelsea fans say the same about Mo Salah It didn’t work out for Chris Wood here, shit happens NB. I’m not suggesting Chris Wood is as good as Mo Salah, before anyone kicks off and tells me I’m on glue

There’s a difference between talking sensibly about somebody not playing well versus ripping someone to shreds and calling them worse than shite and a dogshit signing because they’re not playing well

Because we’re a fickle fanbase and a large percentage of our fans love slagging off our own players, either on here or at the match Wood never clicked for us and as a result he got slagged off when playing here and has been used an example of an awful signing who we wasted money on and we should have known better than to bring him in When in reality he’s a decent player who still knows how to score goals, it just didn’t work out for him here. Which will happen sometimes

I did and I wasn’t sad to see him go, but just because someone fails to perform playing for NUFC and their stats aren’t worthy of a wank doesn’t mean the player is fundamentally dogshit

Stat nonces and transfer experts on here reckoned he was dogshit, we’d overpaid for him, getting our money back on him was the sale of the century and he would never score a top flight goal ever again Just shows that they knaa nowt

Not sure, but if someone told me that Richard Masters had been caught balls deep in De Marco’s lass whilst wearing a Tottenham football strip and De Marco was now on a vendetta to destroy Masters and the PL cartel, then I’d 100% believe them

Nick De Marco KC writes this in his overview of the Football Regulator proposals: the existing financial rules are justified on sustainability and not competition grounds, and in many respect can be seen as anti-competitive, where they discourage investment and re-enforce the status quo in terms of bigger established clubs against others.

I've sort of fused Flashdance with MC Hammer shit

I know that, I was just using it as an example of emotion and kudos overruling balance sheet when it comes to sponsorship decisions It wasn’t a full analysis of how the FMV process works But just for the record, if I do win the lottery I am sponsoring the shirt with “BobbyDazzla (Fastest Dancer in Newcastle)” for £100m. You can quote me on that

Nielsen are a global business who asses media and ad spend all over the world Personally I think FMV for football sponsorship is fundamentally flawed, as sponsorship in sports can sometimes be based more on emotion and kudos than return on investment If I win the lottery and want to pay £100m to put "BobbyDazzla (Fastest Dancer in Newcastle)" on the front of NUFC shirts because it'll make me an absolute legend then it's clearly not FMV, but why should I be stopped from doing it But when it comes to assessing the value of sponsorship from purely a financial viewpoint, Nielsen are experts

I'm all for calling out the cartel at every available opportunity but you're barking up the wrong tree with this one LFC, one of the most famous and successful clubs in the world with the 5th highest global shirt sales are getting £60m from Adidas whereas NUFC, who haven't won jack shit since The Beatles released Abbey Road and aren't even in the top 20 of global shirt sales are getting £40m from Adidas I don't think NUFC are getting diddled in this instance

You're not talking your way out of this one You do the crime, you do the time

If you're buying food on the concourse at SJP then you get what you deserve There's a cornucopia of eating establishments all within spitting distance of the ground and even the worst one will be better than the concourse scran Why remortgage the house for a shite NUFC / Sodexo pie, when there's a Greggs about 100 yards away Just buy an affordable, delicious, pastry based item on your way up. If you save it till half time it'll also double as a hand warmer on cold days

Got more chance of negotiating world peace

That result was a negative and right now I need two positives. You know, one to cancel out the negative and another one just so I can have a positive

Pewley for the fewm

Aye, totally. I said at the time that from a personal point of view the Chelsea move was ideal for him but from a footballing perspective it was a poor choice. But Downie’s article that’s mentioned above claims it was the release clause that put Chelsea ahead of us

in the 7 league games so far: 1 x 30 mins 1 x 90 mins 1 x 1 mins And it’s claimed we were after him as our priority target and only have 1 x fit CB Even Cautious Eddie would have given him more starts than Chelsea have

As predicted, he’s hardly playing at Chelsea. And the only reason he chose them over us is because we wouldn’t give him the release clause he wanted ? Happy to swerve signing players who think like that
