NEEJ Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 They haven't given him any support what so ever for a second summer in a row. He's right to talk up other teams because we've been disgraceful & that's not his fault. He doesn't commission the signings or lack of. The players will be feeling it too - nobody wants to break their back for such an ambition less, pathetic regime. They'll be jealous of Norwich & Southampton & West Ham etc etc What a load of rubbish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 A lot of people are overlooking the 20+ million spent in January and how it's been utilised on the pitch. A lot of people are forgetting the 20m quid spent last January should have spent last summer. I'm not forgetting that at all. Personally speaking I'm satisfied if we spend circa 20 million per season (not including money generated from player sales) IIRC we only gained 1 extra point in the second half of the season despite the 20 million pound spent and the level of football quickly plummeted back to it's previous level.

Guest chopey Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Since Ashley took over he is £18 million in profit that will be over £30 million when Cabaye goes .......................Ashley has spent nothing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest H09 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 20+ million in January? I must have missed that. More like £17m tops, then take off several million for the sale of Demba Ba. Oooh, hey big spenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong I was just isolating last years transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Ha ha! “I have to say, for 45 minutes until Steven got sent off, I thought we did pretty well" “But we’ll still have 50,000 in there on Saturday afternoon against a West Ham side who will make it difficult for us to play and don’t let you play any kind of attractive football if they can help it" http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport...castle-5780383 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Bit harsh to bring up polls from a period where we were fighting for fourth and on a quality winning streak. Ofcourse no one was going to slag him off then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Merson again came out with the "Newcastle wouldn't have got relegated if Big Sam wasn't sacked" We didn't go down that season the thick cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Annoys me everytime too Bimpy. We may have gone down that season if it hadn't been for Keegan and we definitely wouldn't have gone down the following season if Keegan had stayed on. Not surprising though because Merson is a complete wanker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
