I think he is right in principle that other clubs do try and squeeze extra money out of us. People have said that on here since man united tried to rip our eyes out over a loan deal, villa bought the CB on a cheaper deal then we bid, no way would we get elanga for the 15 mill forest paid. So maybe the players we did buy would have went elsewhere for less then the fees we paid. We just don't know because we paid the extra money to get the deal across the line

Shearer hitting the post in the FA cup Final v Arsenal. Can't share a clip as I've never watched the game back after being there on the day. Probably nowhere near but God it would be great to see us score in bloody final once in my life time

Well y'na.... He is the new Joe Kinnier

I'm not sure I agree to that extent. I believe from their other activities PIF would have invested the maximum amount that was allowed. If there were no restrictions we would have seen a vastly different squad to what we have now and I dare say some of the players that have ended up in the Saudi League.

Maybe so it was on live tv rather then the Southampton highlights?

International break 'injury'...

Maybe his confidence is shot from everyone in the press, online and the fan base telling him that he is shit and is going to be replaced. However... Despite his faults he will get some important assists and is the only winger we have who actively looks to feed Isak. We can't fix the problem until the next window so we need to get behind him.

We need to feed him as quick as we can. Isolate him one or one or even one of two at pace.

Glad to see spending money still doesn't fix Man U's problems

He looks solid in a similar way Habib Beye did for me... Maybe a consistent 7/10 player who looks a seasoned pro

The year we qualified for Europe this result and an unbeaten run would have been celebrated, no matter what the performance. I'm not sure if it's confidence but if they can hear the ginger guy in the leazers east corner screaming abuse for 90 minutes no wonder they are a bag of nerves! The guy has the whole corner on edge lol

Man U would not have sold him to us for 15 million And the fees have exploded this summer for players outside the top level. League one Birmingham have just spent 15 million on a forward.. we have sold two players for 35 million each who have limited experience.

I think we must have planned some sales in the calculations... Which never happened

Longstaff....

Sold two kids Kept our best players We have had worse windows... Clutching at straws

When the deals were agreed in the first year nobody expected the premier league rules to block us at every turn. From PSR to in house commercial deals that others have benefitted from I think it would be hard to blame our board members for the handcuffs we are now working in.

If we sell a young talented midfielder tomorrow and buy a South American called Nacho, we have went full circle to 2008 and will then lose Howe to be replaced by the ghost of Mad Joe. You would laugh but we are Newcastle... And these things happen.

Might as well start doing a Wimbledon seeded draw based on last year's league positions

Saying that the next round should be stacked with all those 'easy' draws

It's also easy to ride the wave on the way up.. everything was new, exciting and all in it together.

Big Joe needed Longstaff after his bad week

Has he done enough on the right to replace miggy?

Imagine if our giant of a centre half could head the ball

Playing Counter attacking football will lead to less possession. Maybe need to mix it up and slow the game down in the middle of the pitt

Anderson to score his first (own goal) for Newcastle....
