Quite interesting.

 

Puts into context the fact that Newcastle have still made a profit in the latest set of figures, albeit quite small and mostly thanks to the fact that our debt is interest free "thanks" to Mike Ashley.

 

If/ when we are promoted at the end of this season our position will be very strong while Sunderland have some incredibly serious issues to deal with should they be finally relegated.

 

Shame - snigger!

I'm  not sure our position will be as strong as you think given we've possibly made a large loss this season and next season will need huge reinvestment.

Isn't part of our overall poor financial position down to paying for players up front and then selling in installments? Charnley mentioned that we wouldn't see some of the profits from players sold for years, we create a problem by the way we pay for incoming transfers.

Paying all up-front gives us bargaining room to reduce prices...

 

... and allowing teams to pay in instalments over years enables us to demand higher total fees...

 

... is my simplistic FM understanding.

Nothing wrong with 'aiming' for 17th when you're a newly promoted team, the problem arises when thats the aim every year

 

totally agree  O0

 

it's starting again, the ambition was lost years ago, the man at the helm is still there so if we go up we need to get used to hanging on and scraping the odd wins, don't know if some of our fans can handle it  :lol:

 

at times i don't wanna go up  :lol:

 

 

somebody on total sport last week said we need to invest 200m in playing staff  :lol: :lol:

 

 

Probably right to be fair but that wont ever happen.we will sign 3-4 at best 10-15 m journey men or off casts and Rafa will be told on you go son, interesting to see how that goes.

It doesn't help the cash flow.

I think someone explained the rationale was down to reducing the tax bill, which makes perfect sense. At some point though with all these installments coming in you are going to have an extremely healthy positive cash flow, 5 million here, 5 million there, when all said and done before we even sell anyone we could be 20 million up.

 

I think it's a sound long term strategy to make money, whether it works will depend on if we can stay in the PL. It's really not a way in the short term at least to build a successful football team though.

Amid lots of vitriol and bigotry re a perfectly reasonable Rafa article (and a few sensible posts) lies this. Not remarkable in terms of jaw dropping stupidity, but there is something quite impressive about this line of reasoning, hats off to Adam 26 on managing to type a standout RTG post; there is tough competition:

"If the mags celebrate our relegation in any form it just sums them up. The planes banners etc.. have been when we have been in the same league or based on games against them. Added to that we actually relegated them last season. They have had no bearing on our downfall this year, bar the guaranteed 4/6 points off them which at the minute still wouldn't keep us up."

Why do they continue with the 'we relegated them' line. Bizarre little deprived men.

We relegated them this season so it's all good.  Ex-Newcastle player James Milner scored the 2nd and decisive goal in Liverpool's 2-0 win over the mackems back in November

All the derby defeats were a ploy to keep them up, knowing they'd still get weaker year after year. We deliberately took ourselves down to finally see them off for a long while.

Jordan "rabbit in the headlights" Pickford rules himself out of a move to NUFC.

 

Hey Jordan...Try keeping a clean sheet in more than one attempt in 10 and try not to sh*t yourself so much against the big boys.  Then you might get a call.
