And there is the crux of the whole problem. "A daft punt for a few places" means nothing to the money men and probably nowt to the selling price. Ashley has lots of case studies of clubs spending big amounts over the last few years with nothing to show for it be that Villa or Sunderland etc. He will also be watching what happens at Spurs following their loss of CL revenue. There are several levels within the premiership and they are... Relegation scrap Comfortable survival European place Champions league The best chairmen with a solid manager would think twice about taking a "daft punt" to move from 12th to 8th never mind Ashley and Pardew. This is why steady progress makes sense this summer allowing a few things to happen hopefully next season. A performance that can be viewed as having "moved on" by all. Pardew making the grade The club making profit This will give everyone connected with NUFC a lot more confidence that "the plan" they are working too is working allowing bolder plans / decisions to be taken. Alternatively it could all turn to shit.

Hmmmm, I think the apprentice starting saved the night.

Geordieboy80, I see you lurking, I hope you realise this is all good fun. You'll be doing it to us soon enough......We'll soon get our come uppance / deliverance

You dont know our admins

that would be your knitting patterns then, as you got nowt better to do than accuse people of being someone they aint The only way to apease him would be to post a photo of yourself doing something we'd ask you to do. ..... Any chance of a picture with a sign saying 'I'm not Paul Wyn'? That's why I was saying post a pic saying "LOOK AM NOT FUCKIN PAUL WYN", but conveniently he's one of 2% of 31 year old men who don't have a mobile phone. there you go Well played that man.... but... PHOTOSHOP!!!!!! :icon_lol: :icon_lol: How long before that piece of paper and that sad face says all sorts. You would probably have been better off just being mistaken for Paul Wynn.

Just out of interest, what happens if you post from a mobile? Is that the same IP as your home pc or is it fixed or changes depending whether your using McDonalds wifi etc.

Not cooking but currently eating a delicious salad. Take one large mixing bowl and chuck in..... Sliced beetroot, cherry toms, cucumber, baby leafs, cubed mature cheese, a few slices of ham, cubed chicken breast, sliced mushrooms, sliced yellow pepper. Add geet big squirt of Hellmans mayo and a few swooshed of extra virgin olive oil. Mix furiously, serve and enjoy.

The Europa League that nobody wants to be in? Our squad would implode under the stress of having to play Raylor for 30 or so games a season. There's a reason nobody wants to qualify for it. (not implying that you think we should be aiming for it). While I agree its a drain and doesn't offer much financial reward, I and I guess a vast majority of fans would love to be in it. I have probably argued for and against this in my time but I think it would be fun, exciting and help with recruitment overseas.

He's ambitious then Knew I'd win you round

I agree its not easy but that doesnt mean we cant do it. And tbf (not that I take a great deal of interest in other clubs), but I haven't seen much evidence of any strong pushes to really improve next year from any other teams outside the top 6. Out of the pack that you think would be pushing Liverpool and Spurs, such as ..... Everton, Fulham, Villa, Sunderland I think we have as good a, if not better, chance than any of them. Look at Villa's form after they signed Bent. They were in the relegation places in January and finished above us. Spending £24m on one player is a push. We were 7th in January, having been 5th 12 games in. Selling your only quality striker isn't a push though. We went the opposite way. True, but they've just got McCleish in, they have a few walking away on frees and their best players are set to leave. We are very much addressing our weaknesses.

Paul 5.3 / 10 A few good laughs.

it's an extract from a book written by 2 people who have studied football and business, and the effect on business in football. You should read a bit more and educate yourself It's for those who insist that football clubs that go into debt go bust, because they do not in by far the vast majority of cases. I'm not "presenting an argument" by the way, I'm been saying "for all these years" that football is all about winning on the pitch [without dispute] and in the case of a club like NUFC a team that is winning on the pitch the sky is the limit.If others disagree, some of whom have only been going to games or watching NUFC for a few minutes, that is their problem. I know what it says like, but it's a terrible arguing point all the same, backed up by some equally terrible illustrations. Football has gone from being an unnaturally stable business (due to illegal, protectionist employment practices) to an unstable one (due to the advent of normal employment practices converging with insane amounts of money) in it's very recent history. Quite what the fuck the great depression and the second world war have to teach us about today's football finances is beyond my powers of deduction. You can 'educate' me if you want to explain though. For me it actually defeats the point that it's trying to make. As to the point about winning on the pitch, well obviously I agree with that, but some of us are trying to take a more forensic approach to how that's managed. Why can't you participate in that discussion? It's more valid than dealing in cliches and rehearsing old debates. Seriously. Well said sir. Will fall on deaf ears but well said anyway.
