    How is it wrong? My opinion is on this summers transfer window, this is the summer transfer window thread. If you want to start bleating on about the success since the takeover start a thread or, better yet, argue with the wall.

    I asked you 3 questions at least and you avoided them. You're ignoring the progress and getting all ****ty arse about missing out on a few ambitious signing attempts.

    For what it's worth I think Mitchell was right about recruitment, but the owners have done brilliantly so far.

    Roland we won a ****ing trophy <laugh>

    The fact people on here would have the actual face to say the current owners are the issue is absolutely laughable. Roy is spot on.

    Short memories from entitled morons tbh.

    One year before the Saudi takeover we were discussing openly the idea Joey Barton could come in to save us from relegation. We were statistically the worst team in the Premier League by a lot.

    Now we are one of the best and have been in the Chanpions League twice with a trophy and some ****ing clowns seriously believe PIF have had little hand in it.

    You think we would have managed all this with Hayden and Lascelles playing every week? Bruno, Tonali, Botman, Gordon, Isak all just came out of thin air did they? <laugh>

    Newcastle "fans" pft.

    So Howe is Messiah and shouldn't be questioned or PIF are amazing and shouldn't be questioned. The outcome of that is no questions are ever asked.

    Both have been great to date but over the past 12 months, things have gone very wrong. No COE, No SD, transfer window where no-one signs for us and PIF/Howe/fans are being openly mocked. PIF and Saudis are increasing spend indirectly into other PL clubs whilst they dont seem to want to commit to any effort to increase revenues at an accelerated rate at NUFC.

    Last 3 years have been amazing but there are questions to be answered. If we dont ask then are we just meant to turn up and cheer and spend our money on the new samba trainers?

    Do you just read people’s posts and the. Say the complete opposite of them?

    So you’re happy to go from Isak to Jackson?

    Currently there is no one in our reach that could replace Isak.
    Jackson, however, is PL ready and under EH has the potential to get to a similar level.

    No but I'm happy to go with Jackson, Wissa and Samu for Isak. Gives us 3 strikers for the price of one.

    Isak wont play for NUFC again. Ideally I would tell Liverpool to **** off but if we get them 3 in then I would bite the bullet and sell Isak for £140-150M

    Isak to Jackson is an obvious step down. Isak to anyone we can bring in is likely going to be an obvious step down. However, we witnessed an unmotivated Isak at the end of last season and from that mediocrity, Jackson etc would probably be upwards steps. Anyway, Isak to Jackson + £100m is the truth of it. So that could be Isak to Jackson + Paqueta + Thiaw + matey from Ajax. Leaving our existing budget intact to sign yet more quality players such as Wissa + Scalvini + Brahmin Diaz.

    I would take Wissa short term and look for the longer term. Jackson isn’t a good player he is bang average.

    Different opinions and strategies. I would of course support him if we did get him.

    I just would prefer Wissa.

    I don’t rate Jackson at all. I would prefer Wissa but I appreciate he is older. And I also accept Jackson could improve.

    Wissa is Wilson's replacement
    Jackson would be replacing Isak

    It’s happened almost since the game began. Money has always been key hence Bank of England club Sunderland winning the league six times

    Apparently Luke Edwards has said we’ve blocked Isaks move.

    It just gets worse.

    It'll be a failure. People will get bored of watching it.

    I have been critical of both Howe and the owners but there is a limit to the lunacy.

    There's "they could have done that better" and then there's "****ing shambles they should sell cos we are just not a priority we are just going nowhere they just don't want to sell cos it loses face"

    All because we missed out on like 3 players

    People on here have the mental fortitude and emotional maturity of toddlers.
