Newcastle is 12th, and, honestly, I think they're a fair bet to be relegated within a decade.

The ladder has been pulled up behind the financial dopers. There's no way to pull a Chelsea or City any more. The point of FFP/PSR isn't to level the playing field, its to keep anyone from crashing the club.

Happy to have new owners, but hope its not an oil state.
Did you ignore the part where I said it'd be easier becaise of our revenue? Newcastle are capped with PSR, we have miles of room.

Newcastle aren't getting relegated in the next decade regardless.
 
If they are so worried about their careers they can do something about it and win a few games.

They really won't find it easy to get out of the club, barely anyone has money to spend on transfers, we won't just let people go on cut price deals.

And our wage budget will still be under the required percentage with the first year's parachute payments.

There just won't be any firesale.

You are clearly missing the point and the only real point

We will not be able to afford to keep them . The parachute payment is peanuts to what we will lose in revenue . There’s dozens of videos explaining the reasoning . Wage bills in the EFL are tiny in comparison to ours to comply with ruling & smaller revenue . Agents will advise players to hand in transfer requests . I’m not a betting man & I still think we will avoid the drop but if it were to happen to squad would be decimated



Category
Amount
Lost PL TV money£130m- 160m
Lost sponsorship value£30m- 50m
Matchday drop£30m- 40m
Total lost£190m-250m
Parachute payment£40m- 45m
Net loss (Year 1)£160m- 200m

With wages ,amortization, stadium debt , money we own on players we already have etc we would have an annual loss of around £100m . The Championship allows £15m

Why not an oil state?

The thing is, clubs like Newcastle, and others like Villa, Forest, Everton are itching to spend money but are being prevented from doing so by PSR restrictions.

We on the other hand could spend hundreds of millions without such restrictions, and have far, far greater revenues and a bigger global fan base than all of those above, but choose not to.

Using Newcastle as a comparison is rather silly, really. If the Saudi owners had brought us instead we'd almost certainly be challenging for the title right now. Possibly even winning it.

Honestly, I think relegation would be a blessing in disguise just to move that lot on

Anyone that thinks we'll be better off relegated is in for a fucking treat.
