colinmk Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 We've been been here before - some of us older supporters (such as me, Merlin and Wally McFool, etc) Better players have been sold off - all because it was good business and the club lacked ambition. Supermac, Waddle, Beardsley, Gascoigne, Ferdinand, Given and now Cabaye have all been peddled, whilst the club keeps on going nowhere as is as far from realizing it's undoubted potential as ever. Ashley will be loving it - Cayabe goes, de Jong comes in (on loan) and for some, all is now well with the world! Is this what many new fans are about - all balance sheet supporters? Makes me sick. Aye, I might be long in the tooth and some will call me for banging on the same drum all the time. I'd rather that than be a soppy set of c***s though. The next generation of fans will accept mediocrity as the norm. Sad state of affairs. Don't think I'm as old as you dinosaurs but I agree with yous. It's fucking dire.

If you're consistently told you're not able to compete, from all areas of the club, you''ll eventually accept it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players leaving is a fact of life if no ambition is shown at the club. It is important how the club react to this now and try and improve with that money. It's easier said than done to improve after selling your best player but can the squad as a whole be improved with that £20 million rather than a direct replacement with same quality. We would benefit from being a more well rounded team with a good Left or Right winger, Striker and Attacking Midfielder / Central Mid with attacking capabilities.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What the hell is a balance sheet supporter? Everyone cares more about the team, but you're just being willfully ignorant if you ignore the context we're operating in. Beggars belief that that could somehow make you a better fan.

nufc4eva Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What would we have thought if we hadn't been part of the Keegan generation? Pissed off as many were when Andy Cole was sold, we then went on to improve significantly and buy Shearer. It's always gutting to sell your best players and important how we spend that money (If we do). If we can improve somehow as a squad then the decision may have been correct one. The thing is Joe won't get anything over the line Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone cares more about the team, but you're just being willfully ignorant if you ignore the context we're operating in. Beggars belief that that could somehow make you a better fan. I agree with this, I want us to be the greatest club in the world, however I also don't want us to be destroyed similar to Portsmouth. There is a balanced way of selling for profit and reinvesting that into young talents that may get us around top 7 every season and hope we can improve on that. The strategy of buying players looks correct (Although I wish we bought some british) I just wish we would be more ruthless in getting our targets and really pushing on rather than being happy to miss out on them and leave it for 6 months.

Everyone cares more about the team, but you're just being willfully ignorant if you ignore the context we're operating in. Beggars belief that that could somehow make you a better fan. A balance sheet supporter are those who believe the club line, that the club is on it's arse, but is living within it's means, because it's terrified of doing a 'Leeds or Portsmouth'. These are the same fans that will get a hard on when the club accounts are released in March, because it's back in profit - barely, after Ashley has taken his cut. Expectations have been so hammered down over the last 5 years, that it's untrue to the point that even to 'dream of better' is to be called a mentalist, because we are little old Newcastle and can't compete with the likes of Hull, Everton, Southampton and Swansea. We are a Premier League club ran with a League Two mentality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
