Who knows, for some it just be a job. They won’t be getting the bonuses, if they’re not playing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you’re fully up to speed on the new PSR rules, especially the ones that apply to competing in Uefa competitions. It’s not the 105m allowable losses that is the problem, it’s our wages to turnover ratio. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

healthyaddiction Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Yeah, that 80m loss will be the total lost including all current ongoing expenses including wages and the amortisation of previous purchases. I think we rack up around that much of losses without spending a penny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc4eva Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 At some point this nonsense must drive down wages and fees if foreign clubs /others can't rely on Premier league cash if price too high. I would love us to just find a different way with bringing talent through and getting them early and let the big clubs crack on with spunking 50 million up the wall for utter shite players. Maybe even spend a decent amount on top talents occasionally to really take us to next level but building a talent pipeline would be better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 It's a shame we can't use all our money to just accelerate it all but then I think would feel a bit souless if just mop up all top players, Man City and Chelsea just plastic clubs at this point.

Yes it’s nicely to feel like we’re building a side gradually and it’s changing organically. I never expected us to be able to do a City/Chelsea but these current rules are absurd the way they’ve hamstrung us. Looking at our squad the positive and exciting slant is we’re a few key signings from going to the next level again next season. A R CB with pace, a RW who can score goals and win games, a back up striker (the RW may cover this role too) and possibly another attacking midfielder who can open up defences. I just hope we get champions league again and are able to keep the big guns whatever happens because it feels like we’re back on track and the players must feel it too.

Stifler Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I’d just fund someone local, give them a load of money, call them a local businessman, then get them to sponsor the club. The Saudi ambassador to the U.K. is married to a Geordie, get one of her family members to do it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. The club made a £71m operating loss last season with over £84m in player sale profits, making a £7m profit. it’s at the top of this page. We are up against it unless we sell.

Toon1892 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 If we’re allowed losses of around £84M this season and we have an operating loss of £70m before we consider Osula, Greek gk, new player contracts, agent fees etc. No champions league revenue, we really don’t have a lot of cash (if any) for new players. I don’t think we’ll do any business this month. We will wait to summer and hope to get champions league. If we don’t get champions league we will likely have to sell a star player.
