Exactly. Such a short term view to think we wouldn't sell someone who won't play just because he's academy trained. Someone offers £10m plus, he's gone. Like I mentioned before, I remember Howe's comments from a few weeks back and it didn't sound like he thought Longstaff would be staying.

So if we sell Longstaff we'd basically have to register 1 less player for the champions league?

Not the way Eddie was speaking a few weeks ago. Sounded like he was going. We're not going to hold on to someone basically forever just because he's home grown.

How else would you celebrate lifting the champions league trophy other than rioting?

Proper mental cases them lot. They'll never change!

What a loveable bloke.

Once again, different journalists stating different sums of money to spend, each contradicting each other. None of them know what we have to spend, we won't let on what we have to spend unless we're undercooking it.

Good point.

I started to take it with a pinch of salt as soon as I read this at the very start... Martin Hardy assesses what might happen this summer I thought, aye he's guessing here before I even started reading.

Good point. This is a very similar transfer to the Wayne Rooney to Man Utd one I have to say.

What about Gillespie?

Oh well, I didn't want him anyway...

I look forward to posting in this thread all the way until September again.

Think it's been obvious from the start Howe and Mitchell can't work with each other. Pleased they've basically sorted it 2 days after the season ended so we're not in the same situation as last season. Howe in control of transfers then. He's earned that right in my opinion.

"We were then clapped out" Wey fuck off man!

They've ruined our season. Apparently Well, I for one, am absolutely seething with our achievements this season.

Howay the lads today. One last push from everyone, fans and players! Plenty of booze and plenty of noise from the off today.

Excited for this now. Will be nerves by tomorrow morning. 11am on the pints it is then.

Good shout. They'll be shouting for "Keano" at some point.

By October, the mackems will hate all their players, will hate the manager and want him out, they'll hate the owner and they'll hate each other and be offering each other out on RTG! If things go really really wrong, change October to September.

Where's this from??

Lovely people

I suppose it's people wanting to go into Newcastle for the game. It won't be shown anywhere in Newcastle if its not on sky or tnt.
