Making record revenue is mighty impressive given the lack of champions league football. It's good to see at a financial level things moving In the right direction  

 

In hopinksons interview he mentioned it needing to be a record every year and he's at least spot on regarding that.

Newcastle: Oh the rules don't allow us to compete. 

 

Also Newcastle: Let's take them on at their own game. We've tried being nice.

Fixed it.

In a shock development, the club have also sold the St James' Park lease for £172.1m to a subsidiary company controlled by the ownership

 

 

 

 

The twitter sleuths seems to think this was done to avoid a points deduction with PSR this season

Long overdue. Short of the likes of Chelsea being properly punished and the entire league being given reparations for this sort of shit, this is the only just alternative for clubs to resort to. It's ridiculous.

Yeah as mentioned this doesn't look like it will do anything for us going forward and is actually quite concerning that we were that much in the shit which showed with the lack of signings for a number of windows before the summer just gone. 

 

Happy that the owners found a way around it and shows there commitment but looks like we will be doing more player trading going forward to navigate the rules to prevent us from getting this much in the shit again.

About time as well Froggy.

 

I'd say it was always in the plans, just waiting for the right moment to do it so you can splurge.

We must have been very much in the shit PSR wise to have to use the stadium loophole, especially when we didn't make notable signings for a while. Looks like a few big names will be off this summer and we will have to not get attached to players moving forward as this will end up being the norm for a while

Kieran Maguire said you were in a healthy position PSR wise in January and that you could spend £200m this summer and be fine, and that was before the stadium sale.

 

You're in an incredible position now PSR wise and I'd say this move is so you can offer your top players better contracts while still strengthening the squad.

 

It's a signal of intent for me. Not sure how it can be spun as a negative.

It's a case of taking a fact (that the stadium sale was to cover losses rather than to create revenue) and running with it I think.

The stadium sale was June 2025.

PSR is over it's squad cost now which is really bad for us as our revenue still pales compared to cartel clubs.
