Shut up, ours are clear and obvious rugby tackles, yours was a debatable tickle. Nah, debatable. I mean if I don't see it as a pen, then clearly it's debatable. Yeah, but you do, you're just being a dick. Doing an Adrian Durham?

Did Brian Rix invent VAR?

what's this now? https://www.themag.co.uk/2018/06/rafa-benitez-now-told-summer-transfer-budget-report-newcastle-united/

Aye that's true. It would soften the blow if the manager got the same transfer budget as those other bog standard middle of the table clubs though. £35 million is a fucking insult to all concerned.

An article in The Mag has the old and new prices- https://www.themag.co.uk/2018/06/newcastle-united-season-ticket-prices-reality-means-family/ Looks like the biggest increase is only £50 but this is complicated by some people getting 10% for having a ticket 2years or more. I'm going to wait until the end of the transfer window which means i'll have to pay the whole lot up front if i renew.

Nah fuck that. -
I've never watched my team in the 3rd Division so i've no idea how bad the 3rd Division is. I don't watch 3rd Division games far that reason. The 3rd Division is also new to them as their team hasn't been in the 3rd Division either...... oh hang on........

Probably not a lot as I imagine the event organisers are behind the catering and of course ticketing so perhaps he gets a nominal fee for usage of the stadium? Speaking of SJP as it’s a leasehold, do the council get money from concerts? The City itself will have had a canny little boost, hotels, pubs, restaurants and retail. The big winner is obviously Ed Sheehan and his agent/promotors and the supporting acts getting exposure etc. LOL they'll be getting a lot more than a nominal fee dude. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Ashley is renting it to himself for a nominal fee then renting to the promoter for the going rate. Let's not forget the man is a twat.

Me neither, must have drank an awful lot before games that season!!

Should have bought the Mikey way.

Prefer to have an experienced Premier League centre half as a replacement for Lascelles.

How does he find the time to run a business? -
Nah. I think they'll get around 6 if that for Khazri and thats it. No ones going to pay decent money to a club in league one. Getting these wasters off the wage bill is surely more important than what they get in. They really need to cut their outgoings but anything clubs are daft enpugh to pay for these players would be a welcome bonus for them. The longer these fuckers fester in the third division the better really. hard to imagine a scenario where they let them go for nominal fees like, most of them are decent enough to do a job just below the top level and some have performed well at PL level from time to time (kone) over £10m for the lot easily imo, but then they'll get a fraction of that in and probably have to use most if not all of it to cover costs anyway Aye good point, i had'nt factored in the installment system everyone on the planet bar us use.

With our generous credit terms when we sell players Rafa would be lucky to get £8million of that. Might as well keep Joselu!

I havent hectored anyone , not once . My opinion is that its pretty much neither here nor there who the manager is . Its Ashleys club and he doesnt own us in order for us to become successful . Hes happy with the past ten years and isnt about to move on whilst 50 000 people turn up and give him their hard earned cash . Thats their choice . What i find odd is the cognitive dissonance people like yourself and the 50 000 continually display . At this point giving north of £600 every season for what you knowfor a fact is prem survival at best is the equivalent of paying some one to beat you up . That people take pride in this Charge of the Light Brigade only makes it worse . I hope one day the 50 000 wake up to reality and you too I see you missed out the 'morons' bit this time after 50000.

Completely different IMO. Keegan, Shearer and Rafa are well known in football pre-Ashley so don't need to rely on trying to keep Mike Ashley happy in order to make a good living. Neither do Beardsley or Moncur, off their names alone they can get plenty of work paying them ridiculous money outside of sucking up to Ashley, so fuck them. As a bloke who's barely more than a club secretary and has had an opportunity to go fuck knows how many more times than the salary he was on and provide a good life for his family I don't think it's fair to slate him anywhere near the level of Ashley or even Beardsley/Moncur. Hes complicit as are the 50 000 morons who turn up to fill Ashleys pockets ...They are enablers and as such can all get to fuck It's only because of the supporters that we have one of the world's best mangers here you daft prick. My point stands ...you muppet For once i don't think Wallsendmag's the muppet here!

He's going to fit in nicely.

Surely this transfer stuff works both ways. We've sold £155 million of players since the 13/14 season so assuming equel installments over say 5 year contracts that's £31.1 million income from previous transfers. Is that figure in there somewhere? -
Betvictor aren't even talking bets on Ranieri!

Lack of volunteers. Lack of people prepared to participate. Tbf it was never going to work in the Leazes End. They're not the most enthusiastic of folk in there and that's putting it mildly. God you're a complete dickhead. -

Set the tone for the game itself and helped put everyone in such a great mood to provide a cracking atmosphere. It's not lost on me that it could be the last display depending on what happens to Rafa. Excellent effort by everyone involved and it's greatly appreciated. -

I think you're correct but we will soon find out. At least i can hold off renewing my ticket until after the transfer deadline this year. -
