Newcastle United Thread - 2021/22

[Groke]

Aren’t the EFL financial rules far stricter than the PL rules?

I think that they are genuinely more well-intentioned, rather than a means to prevent teams competing with Liverpool, Arsenal and Trafford twats.

I wonder if Mike Reilly has got an appointment at the Saudi embassy?

Never had any affection for Newcastle, seem to forget the crowds they got a few years ago, absolute shite.

Much prefer Sunderland, cant understand why anyone would not buy them.

If Toon go down, they will be outside the clutches of the Premier League, they can then spend what they want safe in the knowledge the EFL won‘t be able to touch them if they stay in the Premier League. UEFA also won’t be able to touch them until they qualify for Europe and then the clock starts, a bit like the bin dippers when they breached FFP but got away with it, as per usual.

Yeah. But they will be in the championship.

Looks like they're going with Unai Emery.

Going down, then ....

I think they're going regardless of who they get in.

Them and Norwich are by far the 2 worst teams, probably Watford going with them.

Took Emery a long time to show signs of improvement at Arsenal, if that was him adjusting to managing in the Prem they'll be OK and he'll hit the ground running if however, it was him taking forever to develop a system for the players he had available they're indeed fucked.

Spanish Robbie Fowler would stabilise them with the added bonus of taking points off the rags.

Must be depressing if you're a Villareal (or La Liga) fan. You're EL winning coach is leaving your now CL team to join an English relegation threatened side.

We know why the move is happening, but still..
