  1. To me asking for £200k a week is an attempt tp put us off and its working. If he sgns for Villa it will be for far less!!!

    Joe Willock

    It was plain to see in the close season that his loan spell was a purple patch that could never be sustained long term, yet Bruce insisted on blowing the entire transfer budget on him and it seemed to me an act of desperation by Bruce putting all his eggs in one basket!
  3. Sounds like John McNamee lol

    Lucas Digne

    If he wants to play for France in the WC in the summer he aint going to get selected if he isnt playing and if Chelsea do sign him it wont be as first choice more likely as cover for the current LB incumbent!

    Lucas Digne

    Let him go to Chelsea. Once Chilwell is fit again Digne will be on the bench!
  6. Surely a midfield that protects the defence is what is required. Even the best defenders will concede goals if they have no cover from the midfield!
  7. Thats simply because they dont want to sell him. Its no different to us slapping a £70m fee on ASM because we dont want to sell our best player!
  8. They are busy deciding where to draw the line!
  9. Ffs its 12.20am have we not signed anyone yet! Come on Amanda get yer finger out!!!
  10. The trouble with this is there will be no understanding between 2 new central defenders ans as such may appear no better than what we already have!
  11. Let Liverpool enjoy their moment of glory because they have to realise that we are coming to take their place as one of the best teams in the EPL. It may take a few years, but regardless of relegation, we are still going to be an unstoppable machine given the financial clout at our disposal!
  12. Its a bit worrying that regardless of how poor the squad is, Howe hasnt given us the new manager boost which even the most crap teams usually produce !
  13. Limiting sponsorship to the likes of everton villa leeds etc is just wrong. Their crowd averages are 10k to 12k fewer than NUFC. We average 50k and liverpool 53k man city 52k so by my reckoning we should be classed in that group! This is just the big 6 trying to restrict our ability to grow the club. The other 12 clubs see us as perennial relegation fodder which safeguards one place for them in the EPL. The Monopolies commission needs to look into this!
  14. Yes but look what Man City are worth now compared to what it cost to buy them!
  15. Seems to me the big 6 are trying to force PIF out. The whole purpose of buying NUFC was to make a profit as they are an investment group. If we are prohibited from making eye watering sponsorship deals we will never be worth more than what they paid for us and PIF might decide to cut their losses and sell their share in us!
  16. We need our next 3 games postponed due to covid so we can play them after we have made january signings. We may still lose them but new signings might give us a chance to compete and maybe get a result or two. One win and 2 draws would be a great result !
  17. Be good for us if the Leicester game is postponed and played in or after January when we have brought in some new players! Lets go for all the other December games being postponed as well!!
  18. The EPL have only accepted that PIF is separate from the KSA state because yhey received written assurance of such. All they need to do is undermine that written assurance by casting reasonable doubt upon its veracity and therr are your grounds to disqualify PIF!
  19. Im still concerned that if we get relegated the other EPL clubs will collectively collude to amend the O&D test in our absece to ensure PIF are excluded from being a director once we are promoted back to the EPL. Its therefore essential that we ensure the EPL are not given the opportunity to effectively cut the clubs supply of financial support from PIF.
  20. So its rumoured that we have not experienced any reluctance from other EPL clubs to sell to us in January. My very real concern is that clubs will string us along and then pull out of the deals at the last minute meaning we will have to move to our second choice only for the same thing to happen again and so on until we miss out on any of our targets with EPL experience.
  21. As someone said on the radio this morning its not like we are losing all our games. If we can add goals in January we could easily stay up.
  22. Not going to happen but Earling Haarland and Coutinho plus Trippier and Tarkovski would make me very confident of staying up!
  23. Surely if he is doing nothing right he is doing everything wrong lol.
