Or is it because of everything going through the fair market value crap with the premier league. Likely this tbh! Still such a load of bollocks that we have to ask permission.

And that slowness is one of the reasons why we can’t buy our way out of our current injury issues. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We even have a hair transplant sponsorship I know it isn’t quick enough for some people, but we don’t know what is happening behind the scenes and we need to make sure we are always going to get the right deal. Think we have done a great job with Sela and Adidas so far. Sometimes a little patience is needed for the best results. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 For me Darren Eales comments recently, that some have interpreted as, we suddenly need to sell players right now, I feel this has helped open a minefield for the press and local idiots. It wasn't made clear at all that we needed to sell now, it wasn't made clear we needed to sell the most valuable assets, all that was clear was, at some point you have to sell players, (not a particular player) to create headroom. I'm not Eales biggest fan, he seems to be a bit of a joker, when I see him, I feel he comes across like he might think he's more important than he actually is, the Mackem in Milan comment, the singing with the fans at the cup final, and the shite interview misleading everyone by talking about transfers and headroom, has created a lot of unnecessary attention lately. Wouldn't mind seeing the back of him tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re growing and evolving. Destination big league regulars. It will take time. They told us this from the off. Agreed, patience is key. Big wheel keeps on turning. Enjoy the show.

They are usually good at what they do though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Five o Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Jesus fucking christ. At times i feel our fanbase don't deserve any success. 2 years into the project and we need to point fingers. Now we start with Eales. Last week Ashworth. Who’s next? By fanbase it’s mainly online, when in Newcastle or elsewhere talking with fans, common sense seems to prevail.

Being judgmental, I'm going to assume from his minor playing days he still thinks he's one of the lads. Just seems he has too much to say for himself, and Eddie keeps things low key.

80 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 He seems fine to me. Would rather have someone willing to say things in public and be judged on his words than a faceless bureaucrat skulking around in the shadows quietly screwing us over. Much harder to monitor.

I might get Lynched by saying this but Eales is viewed as Elite in the Corporate world in which he operates. We are in fact quite lucky to have him.

et tu brute Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) She's already mentioned that there was a possibility her shares could be diluted.

If she’s diluted to 1% it won’t be likely that she’s losing anything (though 10% holding in stock normally does have lots of additional benefits, rules and regs, I can’t imagine that that would have any sway at NUFC. She has a management contract with PIF) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is one of those things where clubs which have a historically named ground work out that the balance between money it brings in, versus the lack of stickability in the media, and the grief they get for it from the fans, just make it not worth it.

Barca Stadium As for the Camp Nou’s new moniker, naming rights deals and the like for European soccer stadiums are rare compared to competitions such as Major League Soccer (MLS), not to mention other North American sports leagues. According to US-based consultancy firm Duff & Phelps, English soccer champions Manchester City rake in UK£21.9 million (US$28.8 million) a year from their stadium sponsor agreement with airline Etihad.
