You should see the reaction of Celtic fans to that, they genuinely think they could win the English PL now.

Now; you see where you're going wrong, don't you?

No sympathy from me, these are the rules that these clubs voted for all them years ago.
Aston villa, Fulham I can sympathise with, they voted against ffp.
Newcastle can do one

Isak has been left out of the Newcastle squad for the club’s pre-season tour of Asia.

According to the club, it’s due to a minor thigh injury:

Alexander Isak: Newcastle striker wants to explore move away

Alexander Isak wants to explore his options for a move away from Newcastle this summer as he misses the pre-season tour of Asia.

I'm calling bullshit.

The scousers have told him to go on strike.

I actually have a soft spot for Newcastle, their fans always struck me as pretty down to earth and humble guys. They had a long trophy drought (something City fans can relate to), and I recall people who went to the 76 League Cup final telling that, in an era marked by hooliganism, the crowd was very good natured that day.

Yeah that final was a great friendly trip all round.

PSG in for Isak with a Kolo Muani plus cash proposition.

 

[Merlin's Magic]

They've been properly done over by FFP/PSR.

They had been standing in support of these rules! They deserve every bit of this.

Shame about the FA Cup game at theirs in January 77...

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Good on 'em.

 

[bennyboy]

Is that racist **** true geordie blaming City yet.
One of the worst for slagging us so fuck them.

If the barcodes want to move uptontye next level and be serious challengers for the PL and in Europe. They have to stand up to the arrogance of "European royalty". Both on and off the pitch.

I hope PIF don't repeat our mistakes and don't give the scousers any respect.

 

[doobyedoobye]

Great position for Newcastle. 120+ million please

 

[Vienna_70]

Good on 'em.

My sentiments exactly.

To be fair to those in charge in the early days after the takeover, they were resolute in their determination to keep hold of our best players.

We had the best years of guys like Sergio, Vinnie, Merlin, Zaba, Yaya, etc, whom I’m sure were all coveted by the likes of Brokelona, FC Franco, Littlewoods and the rags (when they were good).

I hope Newcastle's hierarchy is just as determined to keep hold of their best players.

It just proves how hard it is to rebuild from scratch. It’s not just about money. City played a blinder from 2011 onwards. Lots of solid signings like Gareth Barry, Milner, Clichy, as well as the stars.

2009-11 - Barry, Tevez, Milner, Yaya, Silva, Kolarov, Lescott, Hart (return), Clichy, Balotelli, Dzeko, Johnson.

Those are some finds/lures during that two year period.

I would put Gareth Barry as pne of out most important sigbings.
YaYa,David and Gareth
3 starters every week.
You must have it to be undropable next to that pair.

Barry was crucial for us. A peak Barry would get in our current team. Imagine him alongside Rodri.
