    Mate Newcastle are not a big club... I was referring to the likes of Liverpool, Man United etc... I mean there's no way you'll ever see Eddie howe managing a big club..

    He's managed Bournemouth and Newcastle and will most likely be sacked here aswel.

    He's not done much and Newcastle want to be a big club...

    Well let’s hope he learns to manage a big club. Because we will be one.

    My thought process here is he has to learn and fast or he won’t be our manager. Because there is no way on gods earth that PIF will keep pumping money to us if we languish mid table.

    Hopefully and hopefully he doesn't bring in any more plodders. If Newcastle get the spending wrong they'll very quickly become the next Everton not the next Manchester City.

    The club cannot just accept failure or it will end up just the next pretender on the scrap heap.

    We were trying to get Phillips!! That should be all the information we need.

    I have a feeling, there's a couple of hundred million available for the summer.

    250m budget plus players sales also.

    Sell Longstaff to Forrest for £40m and that gives us a massive pot of money.

    Can't see him being sold till we bring a few more through the academy.

    I wanted him at Newcastle long before the takeover, but he was limited at Bournemouth too.

    Managers have limitations, except for a small elite.

    When he came in I never expected Howe to take us all the way and win pots, it looks extremely unlikely that will ever happen.

    My biggest fear is that they won't pull the trigger when needed

    Don't think they've ever had much of a problem pulling the trigger, even when seemingly unnecessary!

    I do think we will have a war chest next season. It’s just my own hunch mate if I am honest.

    Does the Adidas money and (I think Sela) come into the equation as of next season?

    That Deschain character on there is the worst....an absolute drama queen, and flip-flops all the time, depending on how a game pans out.

    A comment I’ve just read on there. Give me a few giggles that. “That Deschain character” :emoticon-0102-bigsm
