    Can you confirm if this is true? And with your contacts are there any transfer targets?

    It's actually very simple when it comes to the fans! If you report something they like the sound of ita great article, but if you report something they don't like the sound of the n you're winding them up and don't know anything.

    I wouldn't call it politics because it's more about emotional decision making and reaction.

    It is politics when you answer a question with an answer to a question not asked

    Can we actually spend much more though? I thought we were at FFP limit? And I can't see in that 'arricle' where the new (FFP revenue) money will come from.
    Is it just a clickbait headline, or actually something in it?

    I would expect they will just ignore the rules and then present a case on other clubs conspiring againts them when challenged on it.

    There's going to come a point where the Saudis say right ok have it your way take us to court.

    Once they don't punish City or Everton severely its all systems go.

    Maybe. What has happened to the 100s of breaches they found against Man City? That all seems to have gone quiet.

    The thing is the clubs have legal teams too.

    Yeah, but it was all filed against City in about February? Not heard any updates recently.

    If City and Everton get no punishment, then what's to stop us from overspending?
    It sets a precedent. Either the rules are there to be followed by all, or they are a complete waste if time.

    Legal teams are very good at delaying.

    Just vote to ban Newcastle from operating as a football club like everyone else

    The toon still sniffing around Raphina ... big improvement on Murphy.

    Came here to say this. He's certainly got the profile of an Eddie Howe player. Works hard and has quality.
