I really want Targett to be announced 1st. 100% want him to stay as a proven left back for us. Rather him than an unproven player from overseas at this point of our journey...
I'd love to know who in the Premier League they are referring to? As in the big 6? or some other non existent department? It matters not 1 jot - best part of £120m for league and tv money, £30m at least in tickets, £5m from Castore before shirt sales, £5m from Fun88 plus all the additional merchandise that was shipped out this year since fatty left. That's before new shirt sponsor, training ground sponsor and sleeve sponsor are announced and that's before the cheat code gets entered into the system
..........and fighting out of the black and white corner, the reigning, undefeated, undisputed, heavy weight champion of sports law Nick De Marco.
Utter balls. The PL would have to specifically say they're watching ALL clubs spending. The legal challenge for being singled out would be immense. Besides which, I'd like to know when Everton are going to face appropriate sanctions for flagrantly abusing FFP rules? Or do they not count, only Newcastle do?
As long as Wood's sold to a promoted, relegated or any other club, I'm fine. I think it's been proven he's got no place at all in NUFC 2.0 plans. Christ, even Bruce didn't want him.
We're about to find out whether nufc is going to follow in the footsteps of Everton and sign more woods or if whoever picked Bruno is allowed to continue.
It's gonna be disappointing if we fill the squad with cloggers. We've already got cloggers. Slightly improving them won't help. I don't think so, mind. You saw and heard post-Arsenal the goal. Front foot football, press, comfort on the ball, speed of thought. I think that's why Wood's not near the team now, his role was to battle us safe. Once fully safe, and with the return of Wilson, he was immediately jettisoned from the starting line up and then from the squad. Tarkowski on a free seems ok to me, but I wouldn't want many more like that. Time will tell, I suppose.
