The worst Newcastle player you've seen in a match
Shays Given Tim Flowers replied to gjohnson's topic in Football
There was a period of time where playing Nicky Butt just meant we would lose. Can’t really remember a single player being so damaging to our prospects for such a consistent spell. -
Financial Fair Play / Profit & Sustainability
Shays Given Tim Flowers replied to Mattoon's topic in Football
All I’d say is there a reason for this. To speculate I suspect it has a lot to do with the tribunal not being bound by its own decisions (citation needed). Secondly, the rules being brought in specifically to assuage fears of the top six about NUFC specifically. Finally the fact we don’t really have anything much to sell. -
If Howe understandably wants to keep hold of his best players (this transfer window is evidence of that) then it is better for us to spend less on incomings. Having Gordon, Isak, Bruno etc worth far more than we paid for them is meaningless unless they are sold. It does not change the fact that from an accounting point of view those players have been bought at a cost that needs to be balanced. If a buying club knows you need to sell in order to balance your deals then that will undermine the value of the player. Describing our recruitment process as not fit for purpose seems like a fair cop to me when over the summer window we have not added to the first team and when we’ve been after a right wing for how many windows now?

Vidukas disallowed v Fulham would have been nice.

Colo hit the post/bar from outside of the box with a header? Or am I imagining that. Was at the martins Liverpool game in with the Liverpool fans and had been silent all game, fully lost it at that though. Fortunately we were 3 down at the time so nobody too bothered.

Died in a German sanatorium in 1931. Wonder what his political leanings were...

Sub-editor of the Daily express Herbert Toutel does. Probably a nonce, that's why they didn't have kids.

Shirt sales alone.

I’d imagine it’s got something to do with fair market value and wanting to get something locked in after an over performing season than an under performing one. That’s said why not both? Also what the fuck do I know?

Harvey you never miss when youre playing for the toon

Yeah imagine if he scored the chip in the first half. Hes playing the lone striker role for a team struggling for possession/ footholds in the game. It’s a hard job for any striker but for a guy of his talent it must be irritating.

When you consider the relative quality of the squad’s that’s damn impressive.
