So glad we got Eddie and didn’t get Gerard ? I get the Saudi comments. It’s controversial and all that. I am not bringing that up for discussion, but what keeps amaze (no pun!) me is that they forget to mention the other teams that has controversial ownership. But I guess they are OK… Anyways «why aren’t we Newcastle?» Well, let’s not forget we have also bought really smart Edited October 9, 2022 by maze Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 When we finish in the top four the narrative among other fans will be that we’ve bought our way to success, which is the same narrative for pretty much every single team that finishes top four, it won’t be about the fact we have an outstanding manager, have bought well, have improved every part of infrastructure in the club etc, and I honestly couldn’t give a fuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotic Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Best thing about the takeover is not at all about us being "minted" - it's about how we're clearly using the money in a way that the improvement to the club is foundational and generational - appointing young, progressive senior management, sorting out the facilities, building up the youth and women's teams. That's not so much down to the PIF. That's down to some serious fans who are serious about building up this club for long term success and being a beacon to the city and community. Amanda, Merhdad and Jamie Reuben are driving this hard and driving it well. If you think we're enjoying the ride now, imagine how much we (and our kids) will be enjoying the entire football scene 6 to 10 years down the road. We're splashing the cash, but in the best way possible, IMHO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likelylad Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 I always thought it stemmed from us rightly taking umbrage with that sob on the Tyne stuff etc. Which they’ve doubled down on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Some fans still don’t seem to appreciate how this takeover has changed the landscape. Simply the best thing about this takeover is that nobody will sign our players unless we choose to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikon Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 We won’t sell him, I’m not worried, and he wouldn’t want to leave in a while at least. Hypothetically any team wanting to sign him would have to pay around 150m I would guess for us to even consider it. Even then we probably wouldn’t.

Optimistic Nut Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 If we finish in the Euro places this season and look to push top 4 next season I think he'd stay. Even if he does leave at some point though I'm relaxed that we'll replace him with quality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 Man City don't tend to buy players from other top PL clubs, don't see them splashing £100m on Bruno. It's more Real Madrid or Barcelona that we might eventually have to fend off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegans Export Posted October 9, 2022 Share Posted October 9, 2022 I think that even if we were perennial CL qualifiers we'd still be vulnerable to the likes of Real and Barca. Difference is that now I'd back us to take whatever astronomical fee we get and buy three more quality players rather than see the owners use the money to buy H&M.
