Gordon, Ashby and Maddison this window, that'd be 'some' window! How much would it impact FFP though? Or are they banking on a top 4-6 finish?

 

What makes anyone think Maddison is coming this window?

Based on absolutley nothing, I think if he is to come to us it has to be this window. Reckon he will go to London or Manchester if it waits for the summer.

 

Why?

 

Footballers are starting to realise that you move to London or Manchester if you can't get to Newcastle.

So we will get him in Summer then.

So yeh that’s what my argument was saying, we have to be an elite club first to attract him first in my view. We’d also only be a newly elite club, our name doesn’t yet have the same goodwill in the average player’s head as longer-term CL teams / clubs that have won and competed recently. We’d probably have to pay a premium to get round that (probably to the player).

My instinctive British negativity. There was patter in the press previously he preferred to wait for the summer and fancied a move to one of those two destinations and those other clubs would be in for him next summer.

 

It will change if we are in the CL. To be fair it will change if we bid for him again now and get close enough to what Leicester want. It's clear he was open to the move in September so I guess he would only be more into it now with our league position?

Sometimes its having the foresight to anticipate the wave. We are a fucking tsunami in the making. If they cant see that, its their loss. I believe he'll see that. Also I believe without any facts whatsoever that Tripps, Calumn and Popey will have sold this club to him during the world cup. One home game visit with Worflags and our crowd and that too will have made an impact :indi:
