Are the games being shown live on TV etc, has the Newcastle fan base grown over there, shirt sales etc etc. If theres any posters on here who are based in the middle east that could give us some insight that would be great. Everyone got a letter last year telling them that we are their favourite club. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being in the CL will basically be a way of saying to the PL that all our Saudi sponsorship deals are above board and them not being able to prove otherwise. Yeah I get that, but I don't think we can say that an equal deal is 'fair market value'. It'll be a huge increase, no doubt, but it won't be the same as Spurs' deals.

Howay 12496 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 But that’s the issue with the whole rule, I don’t think it matters that people could point to Spurs current standing you have to look at the life of the deal & potential growth, as ewerk says you’d take Spurs amount - a CL team - and if we got into the CL and signed a new 5 year deal the argument of “fair market value” would be based on the potential future growth given the direction we’re heading - that’s what we would lean on not the recent history. For me it’s a harder argument for someone to say a 5 year deal should have us at a lower rate than Spurs than it is to say that’s the bracket our club will be in and that’s what the assessment really is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 I’ll add on we also have extra factors driving up our price, we are the club of SA which means there is an argument that SA sponsors would pay a premium therefore they’d have to exceed the bid of anyone else for the contracts. I personally think it’s just an exercise in BS, you also add in the age of the Spurs deals and growth in the PL during those years meaning their deal is worth less now than when they signed it which all factors in as well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inflationary pressures have definitely driven up fair market value 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acrossthepond 979 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I'm amazed it hasn't happened sooner. Better let the Aurors know the Dark Lord's going to be at it again after this, flinging curses around with as much accuracy as his Hollywood balls. Also that article twice states he's on loan from us, which thankfully isn't true, we're permanently shot of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 22883 Posted April 28, 2023 Author Share Posted April 28, 2023 What really makes the hairs stand up on the back of my neck and makes me emotional, is the lads & coaching stuff at the end of away games going to the away supporters. The connection now between fans and the club is special. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
