SEMTEX Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 At work yesterday afternoon I was actually laughing so hard I snorted tbh. I'm really not a snorter. It's so ridiculous and far fetched that it's funny imo. He's clearly a massive clueless dicktwat, but you've gotta laugh. I mean, come on, the amount of times I can forcibly say 'The Sports Direct Dot Com At Saint Jameses Park Stadium' in a sentence is just fantastic.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 popping up to SD.com@SJPS in a minute to get tickets for my housemate and I for the game on Saturday. I must admit, if pork pie is taking this seriously, I'll be a little upset if the reverse of the ticket isn't labelled "sportsdirect.com@St. James' Park Stadium Seating Plan". tut tut. You need to keep on top of the game Michael... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJ7 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Just got an email from my MP thanking me for bring the issue to his attention and he has signed the EDM against the renaming of St James'. So anyone in North Northumberland, Alan Beith has signed it. haha Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ7 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 By the way, for the shortfall, which I doubt is £50million. Just another easy round number for Llamblier to say, like the £20mil Ashley puts in, the £100mil Ashley wanted, or the million or so we will pay for players. Anyway, how much have we got back in the last year anyway. We made a transfer profit in January, how much? A massive transfer profit in the Summer, how much? A massive drop in wages during the summer. How much? We can't be that far away. And I doubt our turnover halved anyway. We had a new home top out as well.

Money received for transfers isn't included in turnover regardless of whether its paid up front or in instalments, in the same way money paid out for players isn't included in annual costs. Its a bean counter thing..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quayside Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 On the flipside of that should we go up thats £40m for PL fees, new sponsorship, new shirt deal, Butt/Geremi leaving(almost £7m of the wages) all without doing anything. Ensuring that would eclipse the losses they brought onto us through relegation instead of bleating at how hard its been for them. I'm actually quite positive about our finances if we go up. Wage bill will be around 35M which is respectable. Yes but the squad costing us around £35 million is nowhere near good enough for the Premiership. Nobody is arguing that. Its a lot better base than £70m wagebill for players who arent good enough though isnt it? It is. But, starting from where we will be next summer, whether a squad that can compete in the Premiership can be assembled by the current regime for a wage bill of £35 million has to be questionable. There is an absence of real quality in the squad and real quality costs money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A new stadium is different, but it gives the club who has that an advantage when it comes to getting money in. I can see more and more clubs doing this and was only a matter of time tbh.

Guest sicko2ndbest Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 There is a world of difference between a supportive owner who has thoroughly backed his team and stayed in the background to a lying cheating cheap skate who thinks we owe him one!
