He reckons that regardless of how much money we have backing us up we'll struggle to even break into the top six. So Leicester can come from nowhere to win the league, which granted is never likely to happen again, but they are now currently on course to finish top four for the second time, but that is supposedly close to impossible for Newcastle. Look it's going to take a fair few seasons to build ourselves up again, but if the right people in terms of football director, commercial executives, board members, manager etc are put in place there's no reason we can't continually grow. Maybe we can't spend like Man City did and Chelsea did when Abramovic first came in, but depending on how loose they are going to be with FFP rules post Covid, it might not take us that long to bring in the right type of players. Enough money and the right manager with a good rep behind him to attract players is half the battle. In any case I'd like to see us built up with up and coming players like the Dortmund and or Leipzig model. Maybe I am being a bit naive, but then again maybe Carragher just doesn't want more competition for Liverpool. The same bloke was complaining when we played defensively against Man City. Presumably we’re supposed to have a limited squad but still play expansive football and get twatted against the top sides and still be happy. Not to mention the fact that when Liverpool dominated European and English football in the late 70s and 80s they did so by buying all the best players and outspending everyone else whilst being bankrolled by the Moores family Edited April 16, 2020 by Alex 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2124 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Having a chat with some twat on football365 who reckons that any Newcastle fan who continues to support the club if it's sold to the Saudi's, is at least partially culpable in their human rights abuses. I've pointed out to him that unless you are deaf, dumb, blind, and a hermit in the wilderness you are taking advantage of and enjoying media, infastructure etc that has been funded by Chinese, Middle Eastern, Russian etc money. If we fail the morality test then so does he and the vast majority of planet earth. Edited April 16, 2020 by Polarboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26192 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I normally don’t mind Carragher but... Quote “I think the big thing for Newcastle is that the supporters had a manager they adored in Rafa Benitez and Mike Ashley lost him. “They brought in Steve Bruce who I think has done a brilliant job, but he’s still not universally loved up there for whatever reason. I think the interesting thing is will that be one of the first decisions? “We talk about buying and selling players, the most important person at a football club is the manager. I would love Steve Bruce to get the opportunity to show what he can do in terms of the transfer market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2124 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Clearly he does want us to fail. What kind of numpty would think Bruce should be in charge of attracting high quality players to a club. I don't think even Carragher is that dense.

Ayatollah Hermione 12737 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 The Mail is saying that Bruce will stay on in the interim as it would be "wrong" to sack him immediately. But, I'm assuming the real reason is that Rafa is going to cost £20 million to buy out of his contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12450 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 The interim being the time between now and whenever the deal is closed/season is officially ended, anything past that and I can’t see Steve Bruce being manager. Why on Earth would the state of Saudi Arabia buy a football club, with a likely aim of increasing a brand to show themselves in a positive light/grow in influence in other areas, to keep a manager on that shouldn’t have a job in the Premier League in the first place and has probably the most turgid brand of football in the PL (statistically the worst or close to worst side in most attacking metrics). You have to love the mail and other media outlets, literally calling these people human rights abusers who shouldn’t be involved in football and then genuinely thinking they would think twice about sacking Steve Bruce because he wouldn’t be “getting a fair go”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 38597 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 It’s funny how they’re all suddenly desperately concerned about how our club is run. Cunts, the whole lot of ‘em. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
