Thought he was on the Shetlands now, personally.

Wylam or Tyne Bank beer being installed on draught would be quality.

That deal man, phwaa. Any flavour n'al. Ashley was good to us, like.

Personally think it's great that Bompeter/Penn is putting this cutting edge financial analysis on here before sticking it in the Telegraph. Great stuff.

Alreet Penn/IMTTS/Baldwards?

Madri. Most overrated beer going but still lightyears ahead of Carling.

He's served his purpose. He's not good enough for us for where we want to be. If he's anywhere near a PL starting XI then the window has been a bit of failure.

"EXCLUSIVE: I'm bald"

Bundesliga tax. The man who was going to relegate us in Weghorst the same. Probably a few more.

Hope it doesn't happen.

Uni housemate of mine was a Chelsea fan and he fucking hates Werner. Given the fact he watches far more Chelsea than me, it's a definite no from me.

From January onwards we were 4th in the league with our current attack like so I think that's a bit negative. Wolves were dreadful going forward in the game at SJP, Brighton still have goalscoring issues and they were two of the sides that finished above us in 10th and 9th respectively after we had given the league a 14 game head start. One quality attacker transforms us imo, it's that imperative. A back up for Wilson's inevitable injury is really important too but if the wide player we bring in can chip in with 5-10 goals then it may not be the end of the world if we don't bring that back up in.

Agree with a lot of what was said there. As it stands currently, our absolute maximum ceiling is 8th or 9th. Signing the two attackers we need (or maybe just one quality wide player) pushes that up to 7th and a challenge for ECL football. Perhaps even 6th depending on how bad Man Utd are but that's pushing it a bit imo.

Gonna need details here, like.

As it currently stands, we've only signed 1 outfield player who wasn't here last season who is a defender (a very good one admittedly). Despite that our most pressing issue is the attack and are yet to make any kind of concrete offer for any kind of attacker.

Good read, that. Always thought he would've been one of those in the squad who hated Bruce, given how poor he was under him. Hopefully this season he can be much better than the last 3 and play his best football.

"I'm from Wallsend, he's from Wallsend"

Lost all credibility and likability (if he had any in the first place) when he defended Bruce to the hilt solely on the basis that he was his mate, not on the fact that he was a fucking shit manager doing a dreadful job. Tried every excuse in the book for him and has since just dug his heels in; was a part in the Bruce gaslighting attempt of the fans and has maintained the same condescending, cuntish tone when putting news out almost 12 months after he's gone. "They're not spending that much, there's a budget, wake up, they are interested in Jack Harrison, it's a fact, £50m budget, this is how it is, they're skint, FFP," etc. Like fuck off you odious cunt. You have as much knowledge about what's going as you do hair on your head.

I'll edit this at the end of the transfer window. Premier League Winners: Man City Runners Up: Liverpool 3rd-6th: Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea, Man Utd Relegation: Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest, Southampton Overachievers: Fulham Underperformers: Leicester Top Goal Scorer: Haaland Manager of the Year: Guardiola First manager to quit/be sacked: Rodgers Championship Winners: Sheff Utd Runners Up: Norwich Play-Offs: Watford, Burnley, Blackburn, QPR Relegation: Birmingham, Rotherham, Huddersfield Newcastle United Where will we finish?: 7th Top Goalscorer?: Isak Season to forget: Dummett Who will be the first player to be sent off for us?: Burn FA Cup: Man City League Cup: Arsenal EFL Trophy: Barnsley Europe La Liga winner: Real Madrid Serie A winner: Milan Bundesliga winner: Bayern Champions League winner: Man City Europa League winner: Roma Conference League Winner: West Ham

It's a mistake (an enormous one, imo) if we don't sign a striker or at least another attacker of some description. We have known even during that great run in the second half of last season that we needed a striker in this window. To not sign one and to be relying on Wilson's fitness, which is self harm, makes it a bit of a failure iyam. I have faith we'll eventually get one though, before anyone tells me to remember Ashley.

Wonder if there's similar mackem outcry at Manchester City shirts at pride given the UAE imprison LGBTs. But nah, in fact they celebrated their title win in 2012. Its just because its us.

If you find a gem which is never guaranteed from abroad, yeah. But £25m gets you Chris Wood or Harry Winks these days, the wide equivalent is no different. Its an insufficient amount to do business in the PL, assuming that's the market we're looking at for whatever reason given the lack of real value. Am aware this is mainly regarding a wide player but also if we really are gambling on Wilson staying fit then that's proper shite. Needless.
