Wallace Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Fits nicely into our partnership portfolio made up of the UK's shittiest and most toxic brands. It just gets better. Frustrating how we are continually being dragged downmarket. No wonder Pardew thinks we are all stupid as the club's perception of its supporter base is obviously that we are thick and poor. This is another downside of being run by people with no connection and little interest in engaging with the area is that they seem to be intent on maintaining a stereotypical image of the North East which is damaging to the club.

EthiGeordie Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 A new manager wastes money. Stars of recent World Cups and European Championships are often overvalued. Certain nationalities are overvalued. Older players are overvalued. Buy players with personal problems at a discount then help them deal with their problems. Employ relocation advisers to help new players settle in to the area. Use wisdom of the crowds. The best time to buy a player is when he is in his early twenties. Sell any player if a club offers more than he is worth. Replace your best players before you even sell them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tooj Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Listening to Andy Brassell do some transfer talk on Talksport (aye I know) and some moron from our lot is saying that Mike Ashley now gets it and is going to become a cult hero at Newcastle.

Tisd09 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Some fans are idiots though. Some think that spending the bare minimum to have a squad shows that Mike Ashley now "gets it" that person needs to get a grip. I am pleased so far with our spending however, we still have Pardew to ruin them and still look short of a few players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Sanctioning the buying of players with money the club has generated in it's own right does not warrant praise, it should be a given. Replacing players we sell does not warrant praise, it should be a given. The fact so many are willing to drop to their knees and start piping the horrible wankers off for simply, briefly, acting like a (semi) normal football club is ridiculous. We should be looking to invest, we should be spending the money we have, we should be replacing the players who leave - that's just the normal way to do things. It's satisfactory, bang average, alright, reasonable. It certainly doesn't warrant the rimming they're getting from some of the fuckwits out there.
