mrmojorisin75 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 He's one of their best players and they don't even know it. Funny but I thought he was bang average in the Euros. Ran around like fuck and finished that long ball really well in one of the group games but overall his general play came to nothing for the most part. Commentators seemed to be falling over themselves to say how good he was though but it seemed like mostly running about to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Everyone should have big money next year. They've been severely mismanaged at the top if they don't after 10 years in the top flight almost, biggish crowds and the new TV money. Their biggish crowds are negated by the fact they charge next to nowt for the fans to get in and flood the place with free tickets. For example their gate receipts are far smaller than the likes of Southamptons are as shown in the last set of accounts. Regarding the free tickets thing, a mate of mine works at Newcastle Uni and found out recently that the uni gets a load of discounted tickets for home games that uni staff can apply for. Never knew we did things like that, otherwise I'd have taken advantage of it whilst I was working there. I'd imagine every top football club in the country does things like this, just not on the scale the mackems do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 They just can't and never have been able to attract anything other than cast offs and second rate players which is why despite 10 years in the premiership and 40 ofd thousand crowds they can't get out of the relegation battle.

AY Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 It is if they're still making a loss year after year. They surely cannot be making loss anymore after the deal? Wages have also gone up though so maybe.. They maybe as badly run as we are (pre-Rafa) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never knew we did things like that, otherwise I'd have taken advantage of it whilst I was working there. They won't get "a load" which is the reason you were unaware of this but they will get some, which will be the case at clubs up and down the country. The mackems flood there university, all their local schools and many workplaces in the area with free and heavily discounted tickets which is why their gate receipts are tiny in comparison with other clubs in the league getting similar crowds and less than clubs averaging 15k less than them. Their last set of accounts showed a drop of 26% in their gate receipts despite an increase in attendances so it's clear they're having to give away more tickets than ever to get a crowd in. If it wasn't for the TV money and Ellis Short bailing them out they would be in administration because their fanbase certainly don't pull their weight.

Wages have also gone up though so maybe.. They maybe as badly run as we are (pre-Rafa) Financially far worse. There isn't much in it from a sporting perspective as well (even though they have tried their best and we have been crippled by our transfer and commercial policy) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Have they got any money? Moyes would be mental to go in there if not. Maybe he's running out of premier league options. Sunderland might not be glamorous but they are a shit version of Everton in many ways. Overshadowed by another local team close by, but still a big fan base for a manager who can get it right.

Sunderland might not be glamorous but they are a s*** version of Everton in many ways. Overshadowed by another local team close by, but still a big fan base for a manager who can get it right. and again managed by Rafa. I agree that Moyes is running out of options. He has turned down one or two jobs because he will not get the control he wants but it is hard to see where he can realistically go. The top half are basically all foreign managers so are unlikely to go for him if they have a vacancy.. Which clubs could sack their managers quite early? West Brom, Hull ? He probably thinks he is better than that. Watford? Change their managers too often. Swansea? He doesn't fit their blueprint. Boro? Possibly - a good chairman and he will get time but does he think he is better than that? Palace? That love affair will probably last a while longer yet. That leaves Sunderland - if they are interested - otherwise he will have to look at the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hithere Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Who was the German international with over 100 caps that they bought and said he wasn't good enough for the first team? Helmer The story is apparently Bobby Saxton had them doing shuttles or something and he picked the ball up and said something along the lines of 'In Germany we play with this' Reid then ostracised him.
