  1. I do yeah, because we didn't meet the selling club's valuations. Every other club isn't in on this conspiracy.
  2. ...that was rejected ...that was rejected ...that was far, far too late ...that took forever and no one else wanted to sign, but fair play it got done.
  3. Too right. Cut your cloth accordingly
  4. Been a football fan long? TL;DR - Every fanbase is like this when it's hurting and long may it continue.
  5. Just a reminder that if we sold him to Liverpool, they also signed our fucking replacement. I've said that comparisons with Ashley are ridiculous previously, which they are, but my opinion of their football acumen will absolutely plummet if we sell to not just a rival, but a rival that bought our replacement. I doubt it would ever recover tbh.
  6. It's the same "wake up everyone" thing that I doubt anyone needs, but each to their own.

    None. Selling him to Liverpool is absolutely unacceptable in any scenario.
  8. All the more reason to defer selling him imo. We have nobody in place to use the funds properly.
  9. D) Isak, Osula, Neave E) Wissa, Osula, Neave F) Osula, Neave, Parkinson Think these are by far the most likely

    They immediately stumped up when there was the threat that our pursuit of Wissa might scupper their Mbeumo deal.

    Most clubs don't keep failing at it and putting themselves in more and more perilous positions as a direct result I would imagine.

    The whole not meeting other club's valuations thing is getting seriously fucking tiresome. We're in Goofy I'll fuckin doin it again territory now.
  13. Think people will maybe project how they're feeling or what they want to see onto what they see in him a bit. I didn't notice anything different about him tbh, nothing like his interviews after Mitchell was appointed last summer.
  14. Tbf to Spurs, a crucial part of their growth is that Berbatov aside they always sold abroad and those sales arguably catapulted them into the big 6.
  15. Hire choices (Howe and some others aside) and staff resource
  16. Him telling us that it's up to the club means I'm not calm at all. The people running things appear to be absolutely clueless when it comes to situations like this.
  17. Wonder who 'the club' involved in the discussions with Isak are that Eddie refers to. Doubt it's Yasir, we have no CEO, and the lads who've been put in charge of our football transfers have a humiliation fetish. I can't believe anyone in our position would sell him to Liverpool or another PL club, but they've shown themselves to be such utter pushovers this summer that I think they'll manage it and rubberstamp easily the worst Newcastle transfer window of my lifetime.
  18. Van Persie to Man United probably. He almost single-handedly won Man United the league and Arsenal entered their banter era.
  19. It's really stupid. If you want to ramp up the fee so another team can't get them you do it so it's out of grasp, not £10m above their reported offer and if you want to do it so they'll meet a valuation you don't bid £20m below Newcastle's valuation. If these fuckers sell him to Liverpool it's all over like. I can see it as well.
  20. It really is staggering how small time it is considering the amount of resources that could have been put in place long ago.
  21. Which drove up the price for Mbeumo. Can see where this is going because I support Newcastle, but I really hope this is something that redefines who we are and we don't capitulate for literally no reason
