Morning all....

Just one post today. the link to a news article sums up what Im thinking - https://archive.ph/5zrAs

Unless something changes in the last 4 weeks of this transfer window, I really do think the writing is on the wall and fans will turn against PIF. It's going to be very bumpy and as I said weeks ago, I can only see one outcome. PIF put NUFC up for sale and buy out Clearlake to own Chelsea.
 
Genuine question, would we have lost out on all these targets if Amanda and Mehrdad were still here? Not saying we’d have got all of them or anything but no chance it would’ve got to this level of rejection in my opinion. They knew how to sell the dream.

Ironically, the combination of Staveley, Mehrdad and Ashworth did just that.
 
How many clubs have won trophies since psr came in? In the case of Leicester what followed?

Liverpool already had sufficient revenues, so while they did things right it wouldn't have been so straight fwd otherwise. Newcastles owners have done exceptionally well imo.

Big 6 fans simply want to believe their success is special and not like a boxing match with fighters only allowed to use one arm.

Theres definitely players out there and if you're Newcastle even if you find them it's harder to keep them.

I don’t know. Apparently came in 13/14 so I guess Leicester won a couple, spurs, Newcastle, West Ham Palace. Did Swansea & Wigan win the cup since then?

How many clubs have won in the 10 years before that? I don’t suspect it’s hugely different.

2 clubs have won the title in last 8 years.

point being arsenal spurs united aren’t offering players any more sustained success at this moment in time than Newcastle - that has nothing to do with the PSR.

Players still see the liklehood
 
Isak will be staying now.

Maybe we've had a plan all along to force the hands of other clubs to ward them off someone we wanted to sign all along..........

Amanda could sell the club and the vision we currently don't have that apart from Eddie who should be focussed on preseason
