Where is there a direct quote or video evidence? You've shown **** all. Not a court in the land or even Virginia would accept that.
For hotter weather maybe..there are many beautiful places in the north east especially Northumberland.
You have no evidence for your claim that is the key point. I make my decisions using the best evidence available and you are making a claim without any evidence whatsoever. Are you deeply religious by any chance?
Mate what we think is irrelevant the initial point made is that Newcastle isn't a desirable place to live and that it counts when trying to sign players ahead of clubs that are reputation wise and factually more desirable. Anyone arguing against that is wrong.
Let’s be honest.. everywhere in Britain has ****hole areas. Birmingham is a **** hole yet Villa are getting Carlos etc. Manchester is rough as **** in a lot of areas yet attract the likes of Haaland over Chelsea who are based in the beloved London. Money talks. Players will have a mansion somewhere anywhere and I can’t see them going out in Bijoux knocking back 10 tequilas so the place is no issue. Not having Europe is the biggest factor in my opinion. Hopefully that changes in the next few years.
Nah, not religious. However, I'll use my 20 years of starting, growing, investing and selling businesses in various business sectors in my knowledge that I would never ever ever tell a supplier what my true ****ing budget is before negotiations have ever begun whilst you can use journalistic pieces targeted to a hungry audience desperate for any information for yours.
Did you use that expert knowledge when you laughed at me and told me I was wrong that the sponsor was fun88? This is the thing mate you and the rest of this rabble you've assembled have not liked what I've said and are desperate to disprove it, but all I've had so far is people's thoughts and now their curriculum vitae. All I said this morning is that it's not easy for Newcastle to sign big name players because they have financial constraints, the clubs facilities aren't as good as the clubs they're now competing for players with and the City has a reputation as being a poor place to live. I said I was happy with signing young players. It was said in response to super scout Roland complaining about trying to sign Ekitike and not overnight. I stand on my square
I feel people are not understanding what's going on and what my point actually is, but it certainly isn't which is the nicest place in England.
Oh no don’t get me wrong mate, there’s some areas which are a dive in Newcastle. All I’m saying is you get that everywhere, Liverpool attract Van Dijk etc & Liverpool is a worse place to live than Newcastle. I used to live in Leicester and that’s an absolute ****hole. Very depressing place. Foreign players won’t have a clue anyway, they just go where they’re offered more digits more often than not.
Bottom line is it's the clubs job to sell the vision, get the commercial revenues, scout the right players. All this talk of budgets, area, standing, is utterly pointless and irrelevant until 1st September. Ny only commentary on it thus far based on press and January spend is that there is hopefully money available, and hopefully we're after more Bruno's and less Wood's. My only additional point is the club has frequently attracted decent players even during some dark times. In short, there's no excuse to not have a decent transfer window and set us up for a comfortable top10 finish with a decent cup run. And that the likes of Wood, Longstaff, Almiron, Fraser, etc., should be rarely seen.
I absolutely agree mate I like the area I just know for a fact it has a reputation across Europe to be a bad place to live and that presents a problem on top of all the others when trying to sign players. Players do prefer London for example and they would go to Liverpool over Newcastle just because its Liverpool. It'll all change but not yet.
