Well, if we swap Gayle for Rondon, sign Muto for the reported £10M and sell Mitrovic - I wonder who we are signing for the remaining monies - pretty sure Rafa would leave the pennies pot dry if he could!

Would be a loss of money - still going to (foolishly) hold out for that one start signing!

I can’t see it under Ashley. If it’s Gayle out, Rondon in, Mitro out, Muto in that will be it for us. We will hold back in case of relegation, or the threat thereof - it’s how Mike works.

We would literally need to ship out Joselu before another arrives. At a push we might be able to replace Arma, but I doubt it. We didn’t last season.

You’re forgetting we don’t ask for all sale monies immediately and, therefore, there will only be about £5M available.

Then you have to take into account for anyone coming in their wages for their contract and their Agent’s fee.

So should be Jos’s older brother then.

At the very, very best we might loan Ings or Welbeck. We will absolutely not buy anyone. Any fan expecting NUFC to spend £20m on a striker - like over half the league have done recently - is out of their mind. Here’s the thing - if someone had bought Mitrovic from Fulham, regardless of instalments, they would spend the same on a player. Here’s the real rub for me - if Fulham can buy Mitro in instalments, why the **** cant Newcastle also buy a ****ing striker on instalments? One rule for us, different rule for everyone else. Our rule is “if it works for Mike, it works for the club”.

We might find the £6m for Bryan. But that’ll be absolutely it.

Sadly we are supposed to be quibbling over the fee and not prepared to pay £6M.

For some reason we can’t negotiate 3 instalments of £2m. We only pay cash. Convenient for Mike, as we can’t spend what isn’t there no matter how guaranteed it is. I’ve said it before, most clubs know they are getting £100m from Sky so factor it in. We just go to a cash machine and type our pin in. If it ain’t there, we can’t do anything. It’s so ****ing stupid and broken, yet the dumb **** at the top won’t change. I don’t even think he knows WHY he doesn’t change anymore, such is his obstinacy.
