Newcastle United transfer rumours in the press


Recommended Posts

I remember that moment when we found out that we had won the league, the moment where everyone went wild and the players were jumping all over the place and we celebrated like never before, and the happiness didn't last that long because of the uncertainty regarding Rafa staying or leaving. When he decided to stay we (i) thought thad we'd compete to a decent level at least, even if only for a season, despite the history of our owner. We had one thing once again and that was hope. The longer the time has gone the more it feels like :( We really aren't allowed to be happy for a longer period of time are we? I just can't be as excited as I should be a about the new season...

We're also clearly not trying to be creative and getting any sort of financing facilities to jump into the transfer market with either, which is also frustrating. There seems to be no plan to finance or hedge the TV money coming in, or portion of it, to give the team a solid foundation to get deals done.

 

That sits squarely on Charnley and that fella from SD and Mike Ashley.

 

yeah well if lee charnley is in charge this is what you're gonna get i suppose :(

I assume the financial analyst who works for me would have come up with that idea if I said to him "we have 100m coming in over the next 8 months. We need 50m right now to get these deals done. We don't have enough now to get those done. What do you suggest we do" him: "borrow it, and pay it back as we get the funds in"

Clearly, Ashley is banking on the nous of Rafa to keep us up with what we have. I don't see it ending well - as ever, it's a distinct lack of ambition from the owner. I believe Rafa is still only in place, because he doesn't want to let the supporters and the city down.

 

Will say again - NUFC will never amount to anything as long as Ashley owns us.

As time goes on the true meaning of this quote is becoming clearer and it's pretty grim.

 

“I’ve confirmed to Rafa and Lee that they can have every last penny that the club generates through promotion, player sales and other means in order to build for next season.”

Last week im masturbating over Correa, now we are talking about Joselu. A guy who spent most of the season behind John Walters.

 

f*** off and sign some talent.

 

Season starts a week on Sunday for us. And nobody else will be in by then given our track record. f***ing sack Charnley he's an utter slug.

Joselu surely is/was intended to be a replacement for Murphy, surely. I posted last night I'd love Correa here; someone who I'm going to be excited about going to watch as I've only heard about him recently and what I've heard is really good, plus he can play a striker, which we're desperate for.

 

I can't see us being ambitious enough and trying to get him. Ashley doesn't want the club anymore and so won't put any of his 3.5bn fortune or whatever the f*** it is into something he doesn't want.

 

And the press know f*** all regarding incomings. Merino was out of the blue, as was Manquillo, and the Correa talk from 2 days ago from Ryder and the Chronicle has just evaporated it seems.

 

I know we are a newly promoted side, but for gods sake! Whats happened to the market, if its that tough to sign players we should turn back to ligue 1. Because if Haidara on 22k a week is considered high wages, we could sign pretty much anyone outside PSG and a few of the top tier sides.

Everton picked up Ramirez for nowt. They are blowing their lukaku money to death, you are right though the fat tit has decided he's done. Its like me putting piles of cash into my house im selling for some other fucker to enjoy.

I would respect Rafa even more if he can do something with what we have. Id be content to finish 17th. I know Benitez will already be targeting much higher and believe he would have had everything he needed by now. Unfortunate we have a director who is useless.

If you think that we have received 9.5 from thuvin, 6 from the sissoko 2 million from Murphy we have spent virtually sweet fuck all up to now. That squad imho will struggle to stay up big time but the fat fuck continues his roll the dice policy.
