I still don't see the reasoning behind giving Pardew any more control over transfers. Except Ashley's capacity to make catastrophic mistakes.
IMHO Ashely is a bit thick, and pardew has managed to bullshit him that our woes lie
in the fact he's not getting "his" players and he's convinced him if he's allowed to do this he'll keep us up on the cheap. A guess obvs
I think that's exactly it. One of Pardew's biggest talents (possible his only talent) is to manipulate people into thinking he is doing a good job. Since Lambezze and Kinnear have gone he will have been bending Ashley's ear that everything that has gone wrong has been Lambezze/Kinnear/the players fault and that for him to fix things, he will need more of a say in who we sign.

It's quite ironic that him getting his way with transfers could finally lead to him being sacked. If we sign all the cloggers he wants, who will be left bail him out like Remy and Cabaye did this past season?
When we are bottom of the table come October with a team full of utter dross, Ashley will have no choice but to bin the f***ing c***.
Problem is that the new manager will inherit all that s*** though.
but at least Pardew will be gone...

so according to that article we spent £17M in January 2013... haven't club sources since claimed it to have been £35M?

Hopefully we'll forget to colback his agent.
had to be done...

good read that
Mainz really are a great example of how a football club with limited resources should be ran.

just seen that the Guardian have a feature on each Premier League club's transfer plans for the summer
NewcastlePlan for the summer: Major reconstruction. With a raft of players leaving – Hatem Ben Arfa, the loanee Loïc Remy and Shola Ameobi among them – Alan Pardew must rebuild a side looking desperately short of strikers, creativity and pace. Pardew is keen to introduce more British players into his largely Francophone dressing room.
Transfer kitty: £40m
Most mouth watering rumour so far: Andros Townsend

its not often that I find myself agreeing with that prick Scudamore http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27340856
I'm glad he has spoken out against it though, he does have a lot of influence at the top end of the game.

i mean yeah it does seem to become harder and harder for smaller club to compete with the super clubs. but Dortmund are a good example of how it can be done. they've lost arguably their best player for each of the last three seasons but that's not stopped them from competing competing nationally and in Europe.
-
You think they shouldn't?
They only have no debts because they aren't actually competitive Football clubs.

Got a point tbf though. How is anyone going to ever break the established clubs up long term? Take away clubs like Man City & PSG and it's the same establishment every f***ing year.

but there are other ways of being successful...i.e. Dortmund, Atletico

These f***ers had a far more exciting season than we did.
even they managed to win at Old Trafford (twice!) thereby beating our biggest achievement this season
We lost 2-1 at Old Trafford in the cup tbf
true. sorry my mistake. but I guess you can still count it as a "win" of sorts...

some qualilty defending today from the "best defender in the league"
-
Good think about our run-in is that man city and everton will very likely have nothing to play for by the time we face them.

My mate who works in the nike shopping outlet near York says Jonas was in there yesterday. Though it was bollocks but my mate got a pic with him.
Strange place to go shopping really if you have the metro cenrte on your doorstep.

just got back from the match, still buzzing. all in all it was a top class performance, achieved without some key players. i stii find it staggering how well we've done this season.
-
I was at the Leeds match today. Was sat in the home end and all I heard was c*** this c*** that. Plus some racist remark aimed at Giles Barnes. Despicable city, descicable club & despicable fans.
Glad that Clark wont be going there.
Why go then?
hindsight is a great thing. was my first time in the home End at Elland Road so I had no idea it was going to be that bad.
Agh, fair enough.
Hate the place, should burn it to the ground with their thugs in it.
couldn't agree more. glad we hardly ever play them these days

once again the powers that be are taking a massive gamble by not singing a centre half.
We knew in december that steven taylor would be out for the rest of the season. We then saw what happens if we have to rely on perch and danny simpson at centre back.
And despite all we do is make a half-arsed attempt to sign someone.
With the singing of Cisse and the fact we've not lost any of our stars, this transfer window has been better than I ever expected but the failure to bring in a centre-half has still really pissed me off.
-
It's a disgusting idea. Again it would be just anothr way of benefiting a select few clubs whilst pissing all over the majority of footbal clubs in this country.
There are many problems that this would bring and one which I dont think has been mentioned yet is attendances. B-teams would probably only get a few 100 fans whilst the away support would be zero. What does that do to the crediblity of the league?
Thankfully I can never see it happening. Whilst the tossers at the FA might be in favour, the Fotball League has nothing to gain from this and would surelý veto it. And how would it be handled? Would the FL say to say Blackpool Watford and Barnsley, sorry you are relegated, Man U, Arsenal and Liverpool are taking your place.

cheers, let me know. it was often our meet up place when on the way back from games down south. the maltings now on the rare occasions we get away.
ask, from a while back mind. about 20yrs. (this is the windmill basically between micklegate and the cinema ?)
bloody hell that brings a memory or two back. i don't suppose the mad miserable french woman is still the landlady ?Anyone know of any pubs in york that will be likely to show the match tomorrow?
the terrace and the windmill both usually have the newastle game on.
I watch footy in there quite a bit but I've never come across a mad miserable French Lady
Might keep an eye out for her next time i'm in
yeah that's the one, still there and still called the windmill. i wil have to make some inquiries next time I'm in. Some of the locals in there look they've been going there for 30 years plus so they will know her
will do, I'm intrigued now. yeah maltings is a quality pub, convenient for the station too.
