OTF

In relation to FFP and "crimes" that were committed prior to him being a Newcastle player, surely that would allow us to effectively remove a portion of his transfer fee and wages from our FFP balance sheet? E.g. He's signed a five year contract so we've amortised his transfer fee and wages across that. Let's assume wages are 100k/week and his transfer fee was £55m. Across five years that's £16.2m (£5.2 + £11m) for each year of his contract. If he's suspended from playing for the rest of the season that equates to about 80% of the games that he could have been otherwise available for that he's missing. Therefore, having committed no crime themselves Newcastle should have "freed up" £12.9m pounds for this season. Next season assuming he's able to play again the amortisation resumes at the original rate. If you consider that we should be continually increasing our revenue substantially for a few years as our new commercial deals come into play it should mean that we can sign a player of similar value a year earlier than we otherwise would have.

This will work in our favour in terms of the punishment Tonali gets in Italy IMO. Meanwhile in the Premier League 9 clubs have betting companies as shirt sponsors... 🤔

A little too well

He's a legend, the kind of player you love to have for their passion and leadership.

Allegedly the media have the wrong end of the stick here; Zaniolo and Tonali have been sent home in disgrace for not being involved in match fixing.

He's submitted this as proof of funds: Nevermind that Rich Energy is the only product there that noone has touched - that's assuming that it wasn't planted for the photograph.

Also was his release cause triggered when he left following our relegation? He put in for us but was a bit of a ball hog and shot happy which is how he scored quite a few worldies across his career. Good hair transplant too.

Such a great run and then ball from Trippier

What a beauty. West Ham watching.

Isak baby

Home town call against Isak.

That said Rayvin, it's probably not fair to lump in their whole supporter base with a handpicked quote from someone with a clearly poor grasp on reality.* * - Just kidding and giving you more ammunition to not apologise.

Can't believe I missed watching this live, useless Americans not showing it anywhere.

FFS only showing Lazio vs Celtic at the only place showing live sport currently open.

This is on at the very reasonable hour of 9AM in the Aloha State so there is a chance I will find somewhere to watch this one. 🌈

It's a cracker.

I need to go overseas more often, can't keep up with all the onfield results and now the forum drama. I was going to recount a story of the amazing community spirit on here, but it seems I'm too late, plus I found out it was just a lie when this forum almost disappeared and not one cunt bothered to try to let me know.

i'm finding getting around California like this is not as successful as I anticipated in terms of meeting new people, law enforcement aside.

I'm going to need an additional source of income to facilitate that.

I go overseas and can't watch the games and we go ahead and go on an unbeaten run of clean sheets, including away at AC Milan, a record victory away from home and a cup win over Man City. You're welcome.
