thought he gave a good honest interview he says
if Newcastle fans think that we have 150 million to spend they are wrong

benitez has to sign players with money that the club generate

the club is Newcastle united and doesn't have these massive sponsor deals on stadiums etc

he says people say I'm wealthy maybe I am a billionaire but in reality my money is all in shares at sports direct

he doesn't have that cash in the bank so he doesn't have that the ability to write massive cheques

I don't have it its not there I would have to sell the shares at sports direct to fund that

he wants to make it clear he is nowhere near wealthy enough in football terms to pay that sort of money for players

he cannot and he will not spend that type of money,
full interview on sunday

Can see Rafa leaving this season :lol:
 
We didn't think we had or would spend £150 million.

Its nothing to do with fans ffs, its him and Benitez obviously at loggerheads with the budget, either Benitez is too thick to grasp what Ashley told him or Ashleys smoke and mirrors comment had us all up the garden path.

I suspected his comments when asked about the budget at the end of our promotion season was a bit fuzzy and its turned out that way.

I repeat, get f***ing on with the job Benitez , Ashley will be Ashley and gives in to no fucker.
 
Didn't he say exactly the same when they won promotion in May.

It was the papers that blew it up to be £150m on the back of money they have yet to earn from promotion.
