r0cafella Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 These cunts should check themselves as well.they don’t want us taking action for a restraint of trade. Can you imagine a business being told what price to set for assets? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 If anything this merely reiterates how Newcastle and our ownership are never going to be accepted by the rest of the league. We need to remember this at all times and do them no favours in return. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rompe Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Right, so I see the case is about the pricing of the player, and not the principle of transfers between two clubs with the same owner. Don't really see why they would come at the club from that angle though, how much would the price have to be to be unnaturally high when you see the other transfers to Saudi Arabia?

BonesJones Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Siege mentality still for me. Fuck the lot of em! Deal could've been £5m and they would still moan. I think the main clubs involved in any form of complaint would be Spurs and Man U, the two that haven't made anything from Saudi I believe?

Matt1892 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Premier League regulations dictate that all transactions above the cost of £1million — whether or not they involve associated parties — are now checked to make sure they do not exceed “market value”.

Hanshithispantz Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Is the whole restriction of trade thing relevant? I doubt they can stop us buying or selling anyone, they can just punish us for doing so while we compete in their competition? Personally I don't want us to take the piss, 30-35m is about right and unless we're sneaking some daft stuff into the contract somewhere I cannot see how the PL could possibly justify singling it out. It is fair enough if clubs (outside of the usual cunts anyway) want reassurances that we're not going to cheat like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 I’d be surprised if anything ever stood up when it comes to fair value for players. Not sure why they’re bothering to kick up a fuss about it when they have a 14 year head start and weren’t interested in the integrity of the league when they were guaranteed top 4 every year.

midds Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 The fee is completely proportional to the other Saudi transfers. I can understand why they're querying it to an extent but it's not a huge amount of money. If we wanted to takw the piss the there's plenty of shit left in the squad we could have sold for big money but we've stuck to the rules and played it by the book since day 1. And they're still fucking crying, they're scared shitless of things that haven't even happened. Yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
