Unbelievable Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) 22 hours ago, The College Dropout said: Detailed strategy is doing heavy lifting. There are only so many things that can be done to lift a clubs revenue. Maximise existing channels or do something innovative/use levers Barcelona style. Or the rules change. A point people in the know made after the takeover was that PIF would often set ambitious targets but not have a realistic plan to achieve those targets. With that in mind - pressure on commercial team and hesitancy to leverage APT agreements doesn’t fill me with hope. 22 hours ago, TheBrownBottle said: Commercial revenue = club merchandise, secondary uses of the stadium and sponsorships. There is no ‘super secret strategy’. You flog more gear, hoy on other stuff at your ground and get more commercial partners onboard, and that’s that. To do it, you need a larger fanbase, a bigger and better stadium, and success on the pitch to persuade multiple bidders to become your official dildo suppliers. Tale as old as time Hang on This started with TCD complaining that he didn't "understand the plan as to how we close the revenue gap" and that the assertion that "‘More pressure on commercial team’ isn’t a plan." to which Venkman questioned if he wanted a detailed plan in the press, to which TCD replied yes referring to how publicly listed companies often share quite detailed plans in the press. So TCD want a detailed plan, despite NUFC not being publicly listed and it being foolish to divulge any such information to the public, but now that's been pointed out you deride the notion that any such plan could even be viable as "there are only so many things that can be done to lift a club's revenue"? Trust the owners to (continue to) grow the club man. They're doing a pretty decent job of it so far, despite the continued insistence by some that they won't be able to.

Really hope she's OK. Amanda should be an honorary Geordie legend for all she has done to revive the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle Fan Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Yasir during the celebrations was holding the cup and said to the Camera something in the line of "this won't be the only one" , he's fully committed to this and lets hope for a strong end to the season as this will encourage a strong summer window that will hopefully take us to an even better level.

east stander Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Monday afternoon and we are filling time walking through Kensington Gardens/Hyde Park before getting the train home. Near the barracks, I’m overjoyed to bump into Amanda and Mehrdad walking their dog. I started telling them thank you for saving our club and how nice it was of Jamie to invite them. Then the emotions hit me again, tears flowed and Amanda gives me a big hug as does Mehrdad. They hadn’t seen Eddie but Bruno had messaged Mehrdad on Saturday. Newcastle will always be their club. A perfect ending to a fabulous weekend. I can now die happy knowing I’ve seen my club win a trophy at Wembley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
