An "economic lever" 

 

They're just fucking cheating man, amazing how some clubs 'exploit financial loopholes' or 'benefitting from intra-group transfers' or shit like that but when it's us it's cheating and financial doping etc. The double standards in play are absurd man

It will catch up with them, they’ve sold off so many revenue streams in a few years they’ll be penniless.

 

The mad bit is they waste everything they earn. All their talent is from the academy. Imagine selling the family silver to get Aubameyang etc

If we sell Isak and bring in Calvert-Lewin I might just give up. It's a totally Newcastle thing to do and I'll be fkn raging. I mean, apo fkn plectic.

Personally I’m more worried about being fingered in the ass by ET.

I was going to go with waking up next to Dua Lipa, but this is more poetic.

You can't have supported Newcastle for long if you think it's not a possibility. It screams us all day long.

[Mahoneys Tache]

Elanga continues to be shit I see.

Only just turned 22 this year too, but you know these type of wingers always get disparaged. Until they really hit the heights numbers wise, as was the case with Mbeumo.

 

But hey ... at least our club didn't sell him for £15 million only to then replace him with a £90 million Antony

What about this current ownership tells you they're building towards selling our best player for big money and replacing him with someone comparitively cheap and much worse? 

 

They've hoyed every spare pound they can at the squad. A bit of pessimism is fine but not when it makes zero sense. 

[Chris_R]

Yes, if we sold Isak (IF - I don't think we want to or intend to, or that he is pushing to go) then we'd bring in someone fantastic. Probably a couple of players.

Why, obviously Calvert-Lewin and Scott Mctominay of course (although Mcdominate is putting in a decent shift at Napoli I see).

DCL could easily be Wilson’s replacement if he’s up for being second choice. He’s like Wilson but without the goals…

I actually think he might do quite well here as a number 2

Has anything like that happened under the current ownership? I don't know if you realised but Ashley left 3 years ago

 

God some of our fanbase really could do with therapy

Bore off man

[The College Dropout]

The previous levers were legit sales though. Don't know about this one. But the others are legit and as you say - largely wasted.

 

Barca forced Pique into retirement pretty much to save his wages. This wasn't to keep La Masia open, it was so they could go out and buy Gundogan and Lewandowski.

That’s the way I see it - they’re just plate spinning but eventually they will fall.

DCL isn't good enough cover for Isak.  Would rather Osula was given a chance, younger and hungrier. 

[Geordie_once_removed]

It's a firm no to DCL in any capacity for me. He's toilet. 

[Big River]

I think the only real possibility of seeing DCL here is in the form of a PSR scam, with someone the likes of Longstaff or Trippier going the other way.

 

hope not, because he's not good enough, and those PSR deals are nearly as pathetic as the rules they're working around
