Expanding the Gallowgate isn’t likely to result in significant increases in income - and the problem we’re going to have is always going to be match day revenues. Even with 60k in the ground, we’d be taking a fraction that which Arsenal, Spurs etc do. 8k extra seats in the Gallowgate will only bring in c.£3-4m per season (barring cup games). The relatively small population size combined with low average incomes stops the club from earning what others do. Higher corporate seating revenues is where the money could be made from international money - corporate boxes etc. Spending large sums on the executive areas once we’re reestablished at the top end of the table is where those match day revenues will come into play.

No, his reaction was as outlined by KI. But that doesn’t mean that it was the right reaction, nor the one which would work in 2023.

He was still picking Beresford after that Villa game. He’d have been hard pushed to do that and ignore him at the same time. Different times, of course.

Lee Clark kicked a bucket and John Beresford called the manager a cunt (lip read easily by the viewing public) when Keegan subbed them. Players reacting badly to being subbed tactically is almost as old as tactical substitutions. Gordon overreacted but the readings into his character - or Howe’s thinking - are stretching it.

But that relates to the three years to 21-22. 21-22 was a £70m loss - so by 23-24 we’d only be able to make a £17m loss in each of the seasons 22-23 and 23-24.

That’s quite a leap, ‘The Leap’

100%. It is in the same category as people who get paid to write in national newspapers whining about being a victim of 'cancel culture'.

'BTEC Almiron'? FFS. The lad has barely been here four months - remind me again of Almiron's contribution for the first four seasons of his NUFC career?

Sorry, isn't it even more snowflake-y to worry about perceived slights to 'fans expectations'? Nowt screams privilege more than getting upset because a footballer was mildly irritated about being subbed. Even if the person has been to war.

Yep. He's clearly a student of the game, rather than a clubbable type whose contacts within football and the media have lofted him into a position where he's paid millions to tell other millionaires to 'get stuck in' and make up increasingly nonsensical excuses for his and his team's failures. 'PFM' is not a synonym for English / British manager

I reckon that dogshit pass which cost them knocked £5m off the asking price

They could all retire if it wasn’t for the family dog repeatedly making shit investment decisions

Yeah, it’s still as tight as a ducks arse down there. But Leicester look like they’re in free fall atm.

They’re a yo-yo club returning to the mean. Only Birmingham City have been relegated from the top flight more times - and Leicester will go level if they go down this year. The five years from 2016 were an aberration

Agreed, it’s difficult not to have handball given - though the picture is from the FA’s guidance on Law 12. There is an angle that shows Wilson’s arm does move slightly towards the ball. I feel less aggrieved about the disallowed goal than the pen

Fucking WOOOOOF

Geeet up big Jow

Utterly shite VAR decision, but NUFC have put in their worst shift in yonks. Joelinton and Murphy as wingers is always likely to be toothless, Longstaff at his most dawdling on the ball, Bruno not in the rhythm, Burn’s constant movement out of position is causing massive headaches at the back. Massive kick up the arse required from Howe I think.

Top gadgie ?

‘Clear and obvious’. Referee looking straight at it. Usual stuff - VAR referee spends five minutes, clearly doesn’t understand how football works, calls ref over, coward in the middle won’t overrule VAR. Just abolish this fucking shite, please.

Utter shite VAR again

Genuinely the first time I've seen it - I'm genuinely not trying to go overboard. It isn't personal against Stilfer. If 'mong' is ok, how about 'spacker' or 'spaz'? It is easy not to use it.

There’s no context that can be added to justify the use of ‘mong’ at any point tbf - there’s enough good old fashioned insults available that could be substituted

Was about to write the same but saw this when I updated. Ho’way Stifler you can’t be using this shite.
