:lol: I think you're in for a surprise. Because you have so many players on terrible, terrible contracts who are unmoveable or who you'll take massive losses on, you won't be holding teams to ransom for any of your players. Again if you look at Hull with Long, who I think they bought for a similar amount as you paid for Mitrovic, I think they got around 11 or 12 million for him. You might get a bit more thanks to Mitrovic's age, but don't be surprised at all if he goes for under £15 million.

More than 11-12m for Mitrovic?? He's demonstrated he's not up to much all season, if they get offered half that I'd be surprised.

That's not what some of your colleagues insist.

So, the thing is, if there is an exodus there will come an influx of cash. We'll be one of the biggest teams down there and we'll be amongst the favourites to get automatic promotion. Because of these factors we'll be a big draw for a lot of players who operate at the top of that level. We'll be able to attract a good standard of loan players from the top Premier League clubs as well. So if we do see wholesale changes, we'll still be in a good position to bounce straight back.



Having been down there recently I can promise you, that league is not all Sky make it out to be. Every year it's competitive, every year the promoted sides are favourites for the drop the subsequent May. Your man Allardyce cruised the Championship with West Ham, Chris Hughton cruised the Championship with us. Our biggest challenge could be Aston Villa. If these new Chinese investors get it right they could match us stride for stride.

Alternatively you could get relegated again :)
 
Callum‏ @__CK96 on Twitter is so bitter and twisted and looking for comfort. Saying how at least their club didn't play a paedophile. How low can you sink?

I'm deluded in thinking that the spine of the team is good enough to do well in the Championship? Can you expand on that? Which players make up the spine of this Newcastle side?

1. The accounts you think you understand are pre-£80m spend.

2. Even if I'm wrong, it doesn't really matter, since Ashley (the person who you need on-side to buy any players) says you've spent it all already.

I'm surprised you know more about my club than i do, I mean my appetite for it is quite voracious, and I'd have thought you'd concentrate more on your own? But safe to say, we're financially very sound (in better health than most Premier League clubs to be honest) and even with the reduced tv income we'll have more than enough to get by in the Championship.

Mike Ashley has twice lost court cases which confirm his duplicitous nature, but you believe him over facts. Ok.

We could, and Burnley could win the Premier League. I think we both know neither is likely if we're honest with ourselves and consider what is likely rather than what we want to happen.

Because you are shit, name the decent spine that you are spouting about

Watford and Bournemouth came from the Championship. Bournemouth beat you once this season and Watford beat you 3 times. Sheffield Wednesday beat you too.

They only reason you bounced back is that you had a good lower league manager, and a few strong characters. You have no strong characters, and your manager will be picked by Mike Ashley on the cheap.

You are absolutely fucked.

You're deluded if you think you have a spine to your team, you've not had one for the last 2 seasons.

You do appreciate the accounts don't reflect the current position don't you? What facts are you referring to?

We were shit the last time we went down, we cruised the Championship that time.

No I think I'd like you to because, while I'm not gifted with premonition, I predict which ever players I were to mention you'd dismiss. So how about you name the spine you think is so poor Newcastle will be in trouble next season?

We also beat Liverpool and Spurs, so we should walk it.. right? Unless of course games out of context aren't accurate markers of a team's ability? If that were the case, Villa would be guaranteed to be in League One come the 17/18 season, right?

We actually do have a few strong characters, the manager thing is a worry, but bear in mind Hughton wasn't a good lower league manager then, he was an assistant manager.

We'll be grand.
