He specifically mentions his cynacism that fair market sponsorship deals will be seen (it's anti-competitive anyway but that's another argument). Maybe a certain club entering the arena with massive sponsorship opportunities on the horizon may add to the cynicism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Don't know why the media try to guess transfer budgets tbh. Remember when it was suggested we wouldn't be looking to spend much in January? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Spaceman Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Said it for years, and it's what pissed me off so much about Pardew - never reveal your hand. Pards would be inviting offers post-match for our best players ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 We are already spending 15M on Targett, so we will only spend 35M improving on what we already have? I somehow doubt that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 To be fair to Luke Edwards, I wouldn't be shocked at all if he has sources at the club giving him those vibes. It's far better for bargaining if the press are reporting that you're not look to over-spend in the Summer, rather than having a bunch of 'NEWCASTLE TO HAVE UNLIMITED TRANSFER BUDGET' type stories. The truth will likely be somewhere in between, as it was in Jan. They will have a list of targets, enter into negotiations and see if they can get a price they're happy with.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 He's now whinging about people not reading the article and calling him names. There's no need to be confrontational. The fact is that we might not even be considering Striker A right now and he might not even be for sale. However July comes around and he decides he wants out. His club won't stand in the way and he's available for £40m. He'll drastically improve our team and would be a good fit. Does Edwards seriously think we'd stick to a firm budget?

JonBez comesock Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 It will probably be closer to 100 million Point 1 You don’t openly tell people your (correct) budget Point 2 He was way off in January Point 3 Amanda Staveley in a recent interview has said PIF want to accelerate the project and want top players now Point 4 Most teams will strengthen/ spend close to 40/50 million so if we want to push up the league further we will need to spend more than them (and more wisely) Point 5 We haven’t any idea on new sponsorships or on who we will be selling (to add to the transfer pot) Point 6 We need to secure safety first Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Jinx Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 If we were just going to get top level players, for goalkeeper position would look no further than Edouard Mendy, you never know, they might be in a position where their top players want out as soon as the window opens?
