With the ammount of players we would have leaving the club and the shite we'd be left with, I wouldn't be so sure! Very few of our rivals would have a pot to piss in so we'd at least have a chance

I suspect that our crack recruitment team could easily find lower league strikers at least as good as Ameobi and Carroll but with far more potential but Ashley won't pay the money hence the new contracts. Adds more credibility to the theory that he's penny pinching for as long as it takes to sell the club

Hopefully it can't be any worse than at best mid-table mediocrity in the premier league

I'm the complete opposite, virtually nerve-free. Even if we survive we'll only be making up the numbers for some time along with the rest of the league who just can't compete with the mega spenders. RIP football, unrecogniseable from the game it used to be

It doesnt surprise me at all and I fully understand those that dont want to go anymore. Personally I'd turn up to watch any old shite in a Newcastle shirt but I draw the line at paying for the privilege of having the piss taken out of me by the clueless, lying arseholes in charge

I'm actually quite looking forward to playing in the championship. We might have a chance of winning more games in a league not decided by how much money you spend

Harper Beye---- Coloccini---- Bassong---- Enrique Barton---- Nolan---- Gutierrez ----------Owen---------- Viduka---------Martins

He should stick to subjects he knows about such as hitting women and dogging

Doesn't matter, it will probably change every few months anyway Actually that will manage to make things even worse "it's a basement..... no it's a boat....... I want an elephant now..... but now I fancy a chocolate fire-guard". It'll start off as the Arsenal penthouse and end up as the Hartlepool wendyhouse

The Keegan pay-off is of their own making and the Jonas fee should have been looked into at the time, though £4m could still prove to be a good bit of business. I think he just cynically predicts they'll be the excuses for not spending more come the summer. Correct and as if by magic, Derek today tells us 'We are hoping to reach two important settlements in the next week or so which potentially could cost the club a lot of money,' Llambias said. 'One of those is the settlement with Kevin Keegan and the other is the fee for Jonas Gutierrez. We are talking about millions of pounds here and, if we have to pay out a vast sum of money, that will hit our revenue elsewhere.' lol we have to settle for a player we apparently obtained by legal and valid means eh? and how many of us predicted the "we would have had £xm to spend, but we had to pay keegan.." Fans fault keegans fault etc I can't understand why they are stumping up for something that their 'It is a fact' statement claims they're not responsible for

Keegan's 4m pay-off and Jonas' 4m transfer fee still to be paid out of the mystery transfer budget? Llambias - "We were all set to spend big on players but those two costs have hit us hard so now we cant"

We'll be scraping by as best we can with Ashley putting in as little as possible until he sells the club

Fingers crossed that's the case Not a fucking chance. They think we're dumb enough to believe that Mike Ashley personally bankrolls transfer activity. He'll be contributing zero towards it. Unfortunately you're probably right. To be fair though he did lose two billion recently

Fingers crossed that's the case

I admit he's got me baffled for the exact reasons you state

Didn't he say we'd be going back for the players we tried for on deadline day, Ebondo, Mbia, Johnson, Richardson, etc? Somethings not adding up here

He's letting the fans know exactly what to expect well in advance http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/t...ted/7910919.stm Kinnear in charge and 5-10 million for transfers, the Arsenal/Aston Villa model

'Stick with us, you've seen worse'

To allow them to run the club according to their plan
