For the umpteenth time, it doesn't matter how rich your owners are. It's all about how much revenue you generate as a club.

Didn't realise he had 3 years left, still you would have thought with Newcastle getting CL next season he would have stayed , still i'm all for our rivals getting weaker so hope he goes ASAP.
But yeah you are right, I thought when they got the take over they would be spending loads, I get FFP etc but that deosn't really stop clubs, still they have made the CL now for the 2nd time so they are improving I guess?
"They are not up against PSR".
It is true and important and correct to note that revenue generation is everything and Newcastle will always be limited in that regard, so their ceiling is below the top teams in the league and very much below ours.
But they aren't spending up to the ceiling, and seem content where they are. That's very strange!

Because it’s all a load of bollox.
Everyone is turning them down this Summer, they can't get players over the line because they're not rated like that.
Not for Chelsea it isn’t
There’s nothing stopping Newcastle doing the same type ofof shit to generate fake income if they wanted to
Doesn't matter how much money they throw at it, they'll always struggle to attract and maintain the best players because of their location.
A remote Northern provincial outpost at the arse end of Scotland.
It's why I was surprised they chose them as their gateway in to the Premier league in the first place.
Us, on the other hand.....
Hey, Saudi boys
Ah, the 'No true Scotsman' argument. It's a famous logical fallacy, which you'd know if you read.
Ah well, since you've opened that door, allow me to retort. *cough*
Do you have a hard-on for Fulham or what?! No true Spurs fan would be paying that much attention to another London club. You must be a chavscum wannabe like the rest of those cottagers, if our own players aren't enough for you. I bet you own a drawer full of half and half scarves, you sick fuck. That's a white-on-white crime, you goddam pervert! The fuck is wrong with you?!? Oh god. You've got a picture of Bowen in your wallet, haven't you? You have. Admit it. ADMIT IT!
BTW, Including boring (but what I presume you'd consider 'detailed stats') about his history in the PL doesn't make you sound more knowlegeable, it makes you sound like a pompous twat who wants to double-down on his mistakes rather than admit he needs to work on himself.
Just a quickie, would you mind reading these before posting again? https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/
It will save us all some time and make you a better person.
Not fussed about this personally but chalk another one off.

It told you fuck all. Maybe you would throw a hissy fit, if you were in a similar situation, but thankfully professional footballers generally act as such: professionally.
Easy filler for journos to get clicks imo
I agree. ha ha!!! What a load of nonsense. Of course he wouldn't pocket the rest
How preposterous
He'd use it to help fund his latest Hotel / Residential tower block initiative
Isn't rocket science. Run through the last few pages and see what clubs people are simping over because of their transfers.
Absolutely.
It all is. They cook up these fantastical stories every summer to keep the clicks rolling in.
May as well assume the entire MGW story was fabricated bollox. There’s been zero confirmation of either a bid from us, nor this fake legal challenge from Forest.
The only thing that’s true is MGW is continuing like normal with his club.
But like, the whole point of the Saudi project was to GET them rated like that.
Didn’t tell you anything either but you still assume that he’s wrong and this mythical deal is still on, even if there’s nothing solid to suggest it ever was
Still has nothing to do with how rich your owners are. It's more about how many shenanigans you can get away with.
