There's also the question of the Israeli players security, have your own opinions on the Israel Palestine situation, but their footballers aren't complicit, and there'd be every chance of another attack like the German Olympics in 1972 (I think).

Oh absolutely chap. They're at risk even moreso nowadays I would say.

We are "struggling to attract Tonali"?

Surprised he's not been back showing a video of himself wanking over another c*nt who's sold his soul for blood money.

I see it too, but sometimes some sites don't show automatically for me either. Copying the link from a quoted post and pasting it in the browser works for me.

Eddie Howe, Alan Shearer and all the rest of these so called "Local Heroes" could not care less about anything other than their bank balance.

Shearer was on Twitter yesterday saying this "It was good fun narrating this, and listening to some very interesting stories from behind the scenes!" (It's to do with some Amazon Prime video, "We are Newcastle United" . . . . . . . this is the same Alan Shearer who said this in October 2021 ""I want my club to represent my city and my region and not some distant, authoritarian regime."

They are scum, all of them, sold their souls for blood money.

Alan Saint Maximin gone to Saudi team Al-Ahli for £30million, he joins Roberto Firmino, Édouard Mendy and Riyad Mahrez.

I shouldn't give a toss because I washed my hands of them a year and a half ago but it's still like a kick in the fucking guts.

I'm close to washing my hands of our club for even dealing with the Saudis. It's made me realise these clubs aren't ours anymore.

The one thing that Newcastle have not bargained for is expectations.
We have fans who assume that we will battle with City every years because we have in the past, the better you do the more people expect of you.
I think many fans assume Newcastle are a Champions League club now. They qualified narrowly because Liverpool, Chelsea and Spurs were poor last year Next year all 3 of thise will be better and Brighton and Villa will be sniffing around as well. Newcastle have not improved to the degree they can establish themselves as a top 4 team and break the grip of the top 6 clubs, especially as they have CL football to deal with as well.
It will be interesting to see how their value as a club is if they finish 7th next year, if they don't make progress I suspect they will struggle to justify some of their marketing value. City managed early on to break in and they used money they did not have to do so. Let's see what Newcastle do to move to where they want (and expect) to be without doing what City did (cheat) to get there.
