FLUMPO235

That looks like when football games haven’t got the license to use real names or kits.

The government can fuck off. I don’t want seb fucking coe, rishi sunak or sir starmer anywhere near us or our ground. if ratty wants the tax payers to fund his shortfall he can get it of the ‘king of the north’ burnham and greater Manchester can pay for it from their coffers.

I wouldn’t mind so much, but when they talk about ‘the north’ we all know full well they only mean Manchester. It would be much better if they just used the term north west instead. They can argue with the scouses if that includes Liverpool or not.

If you say that in cobham you will get a limp wrist southern slap. Cobham is not London, it’s the heart of Surrey.

No. It’s nice to have something different and a chance to have something mental. Otherwise we are back to b&w slightly different collar or stripe width each season. that yellow samba kit some guy did a few pages back good example of something different. also I think having something very different each year will encourage more sales and more ffp bollocks.

It’s bullshit anyway, I can’t justify paying full prices so always bought stuff from the regular club shop castore sales. I always checked to see how much the oaf was selling them for and he has never been cheaper than the castore website when I’ve checked. so I don’t understand who is buying shirts from him anyway and at higher prices. The bastard is probably selling them all to peoples nans who haven’t got a clue and just buying gifts. current prices

They seem to be bringing in some decent people. I can see them improving long term. the problem they have is they probably can’t compete with city financially. The other major problem, is ratty seems to be one of those arrogant self made dickheads who also loves the limelight. His mouth will keep making them look stupid I’m sure. Seems the sort to throw public tantrums and nothing will ever be his fault type too. that IT email leak will be tip of the iceberg.

I think black and white stripes is always a bit tricky doing something revolutionary. Unless you go bat shit crazy, you basically do stripe widths or a new collar. I wouldn’t mind seeing something just totally fucking mental for a one off change. But I think it would be a gamble and upset some people. one season just go nuts and do something like the notts forest away shirt but swap the blue for black, and maybe a tyne bridge or sky line at in the top white bit. Or just something a bit different, I don’t like this juventus top, but you get the idea. to be honest I’m more looking forward to the training kits as I like exercising/gardening and just lazing about in.

No probably the opposite. He will be wanting to sort out the mess and be the hero. this hopefully helps us though, ratcliffe will be fuming after this and want to get things changed. Might focus his mind on paying the compo and getting Dan in place asap.

Heard Gary Neville saying when he signed to manage Valencia, Dan told him he was in consideration for next England manager. Dan told him go and have a good 8 games in Spain and things are looking very good. Or words to that effect. Hopefully he’s dans top choice to replace ten hag.

fabrizio Romano has just posted this: dan ashworth new Lego, here we go!

fits with the visit Rwanda sponsor I guess.

I’ve found castore sizing not to be consistent on the same items. I got a load of training tops in last years sale. 2 identical tops in M, one is slightly tight and one is slightly baggy. ?

Due to ffp restrictions, we can now only amortise one times toon, not toon, toon.

Ah might be. Can’t say I fully get all of this.

That’s great news, I’m only going off what’s on our official page, where is the better list?

Only listened to the first 10 mins, but the main points seemed to be: - not as good as previously thought for us - 70 or whatever cap will run alongside, new stuff doesn’t superseded - if we have pulled our finger out out new turnover will be 300m so 70% or whatever will be about 210m a year in transfers. That’s apparently better than it sounds (sounded pretty good to me anyway) as it is that amortisation, so you could buy 10 x 20m a year players im happy to say I’m no expert at all so that may not be quite right. Also only based off first 10 mins

We just need to really start pumping the sponsors to up our turnover. But other than sela and noon We seem to have been a bit slow on that front. so maybe it’s a route the club have deemed too obvious a piss take. compare manure list of partners: https://www.manutd.com/en/partners/global to ours: https://www.newcastleunited.com/club/partners/current-partners/ im not really sure why our training gear doesn’t have any sponsor at all. I bet manure are getting something meaningful for their kit sponsor - it’s not the same as their shirt sponsor. surely there are half a dozen off this list who could make us up an extra £50m minimum. Maybe we do think it’s too risky a strategy. https://www.pif.gov.sa/en/our-investments/our-portfolio/

The only thing I’m going to miss about castore, are their regular sales every couple of months. I can’t see adidas doing the same. Although a lot of older adidas kits/training like juventus and others pop up at reduced rates on mandm sports.

Ffs.

Fuck off Harry Maguire

You can’t really blame Blair, it was Alastair Campbell who will have told him what to say.

He knows him as that fat drunk bloke who’s always in aspers.

His whole involvement in manure is going to end in delicious tears. The current team needs massive investment to seriously challenge top 4 never mind higher. That’s not just the players are not good enough, but the team seems rotten and full Of bad characters. I know they are a massive club, but to turn it around will require massive changes that I don’t think he can introduce when he’s a minority shareholder. There already seemed to be a slightly passive aggressive dig at the fans over wanting instant results in that interview. I bet in 5 years times they won’t be back to really competing regularly for the prem or advancing in the CL. The fans will moan and I can see him and his ego/thin skinned response is to walk out blaming the fans.

Neither do I. but there are those who think we should have MI5 surveillance levels on future and current players to avoid another tonali. You want to borrow my tin foil?! ?
