Park Life

The news is not a 'tv show'.

Broadly agree. Irritating as it is, with KK in place, we have to stick it out. The real frustration for a lot of us is that we are only 2/3 good first team players short of having decent season.

The wage bill is one thing I'm totally happy with his approach on. I bet he's delighted Good.

No need for that, just cast the eye over the first eleven. Easily a top half first eleven. Top half? How depressing. Fucking hell, what were you expecting? I'm happy to be patient for a season or two. I'm happy for you.

Have you ever seen Totti play for Roma in Serie A? Obviously I know you're going to respond about it being a shite league etc He's like Ibramovich. I mean they must be class players but I never seem to see them have a good game. Doesn't score much for Sweden.

Will someone please give us a fucking tonking while there is still time to buy players.

makes me smile too ......... Has anyone done the sums on his estimated balance sheet since arriving? EDIT: Using a mixture of ball park estimates and the averages from NUFC-Finances.org.uk I reckon.... Outgoings Buy price 130M Debt 30M Wages 60M Players in 30M Other expenses (match related) 15M Total 265M Incomings TV 20M Players Out 16M Commercial 20M Gates 30M Total 86M Which has him 179M down. Sitting pretty on a lovely little investment though. Happy to bow to wiser heads and add/remove/change amounts though The club is valued at £240m that's all you need to know. Unless our performance on the park changes drastically he won't find anyone to pay substantially over that price.

I wouldn't have expected him to put in anything like 100m Alex, just to recognise the club has a manager capable of lifting it up to the top and allowing him to get one or two more players he wants. To date we haven't seen this. Now that the club isn't paying back the installments on the stadium, and we have an increase in sky money, can anyone tell us where this money has gone if it isn't - or hasn't so far - been spent on players BTW ? Is immediately lowering the wage bill so important for a club with the 14th biggest turnover in football / 3rd biggest crowd in the country ? Looking at him he'll be dead in 20 years, might as well enjoy the money.

He hasn't 'put in' anything. He purchased a commodity. Looks like he purchased it without looking at it. When I buy yet another shit watch I don't wander around informing people I've invested in a watch.

No need for that, just cast the eye over the first eleven.

We haven't a hope in hell of getting into Europe as things stand. We really need 2/3 to go straight in the first team to even start thinking about it.

Love the way he keeps saying 'he's invested' £250m....

They need to get Kat out. But she's hiding very convincingly behind this irritating, fat, asian - airhead disguise.

Exactly. He will Good.

Is it significant the Cox leaving or not?

Exactly.

so you agree then ? Yes. With KK this is a special window of opportunity. I sense everyone was ready for a big push.

"but Newcastle United are big enough to rebuild without being hindered and strapped while they do it." LM2008 I've always believed that.

maybe they are haggling over the taxi fare from the airport He's refused to pay for his suit.

What it doesn't show is how many games we were getting dominated in while he was running around prettying up his figures. And as Stevie says.

I know, but you also know - what I know.....

Class player we shall miss him.
