Generic small time football blather thread 2015/16
The Fish replied to The Fish's topic in Newcastle Forum
I know Colin Murray jacked in talkSport because he didn't want to be in anyway associated with the Sun via Newscorp, but I don't think Stan has the moral compass for that sort of thing. -

I thought he was a big hitter? -

Collymore did worse and was on radio for years until... well I'm not sure why he's not on talkSport anymore. -
Oh aye, but this isn't him giving a legitimate excuse, he's just deflecting. Knowing our luck we'll get sponsored by some far-east gambling consortium for a nice fat fee, then 6 months later the FA will ban gambling sponsors.
-
Also trying to deflect by saying the FA are sponsored by Ladbrokes or something. Man Utd were sponsored by Chevrolet, doesn't mean Rooney could run some over in a Corvette and get away with it.

Fined £5m weren't they? Also, didn't they have to pay Sheffield Utd something?

Same age as Charnley.

If it's Mondial sports we've done loads of deals with them involved; Yohan Cabaye, Moussa Sissoko, Mathieu Debuchy, Thauvin Florian, Alexsandr Mitrovic, Remy Cabella, Hatem Ben Arfa, Emmanuel Riviere, Henri Saivet,

Had a discussion with one of them about Anichebe. He was adamant 'Big Vic' is a better striker than Mitrovic. DIgnoring, y'know, just looking at them Mitro scored more in his debut Premier League season than Anichebe has managed in any of his. In fact, in 2 seasons of English football, Mitrovic has 40% of Anichebe's goal haul across 13 seasons.

Well, except for when we meet them next season. So I'd prefer the shittest team to come up with us.
-
Forest are away to QPR and home to Ipswich, neither of those are actually any good or have anything to play for. 3 points clear of Blackburn and 7 clear of Wigan, both of whom I could see failing to pick up another point. Nobody seems to be talking about Reading or Shef Wed coming up via the play offs. All the talk seems to be about Fulham and Huddersfield. I'm sure Brentford would love to derail Fulham's season on Saturday and Leeds could easily beat Norwich... I think the Play Offs are wide open.

Bed sheets not even out of their packets and people are already pissing on them

Who could/should we sell for sufficient sums to raise capital to limit the commitment from Ashley? Sels Anita (gone for nowt anyway isn't he?) Hanley Haidara Lazaar Colback Gouffran (end of contract?) Aarons Saivet de Jong Mitrovic (just not in Rafa's thoughts, is he?) Murphy

I think Safety is a reasonable and realistic aim for next season. Sound investment of a decent budget will deliver that under Rafa. £100m is a huge amount of money for us, surely too much given the lack of tv income 16/17? That said, if we've £30m from Sissoko et al + another £30m from new player sales (de Jong, Saivet, championship players), + a £30m commitment from Ashley... maybe it's not too optimistic?
-
Absolutely, but I think it's too much too soon to expect it this coming season. Doesn't it make sense to buy a bunch of players that can deliver you safety (12-15th)for £60m, then in the summer that follows buy a few more players that will deliver 8th-10th another £60m? Spreading £120m over two seasons, instead of gambling that £100m will deliver top half immediately? I think that's part of the reason we've looked a little disjointed, too many new players all coming in at once. Might be wrong.
