"Yet the reality is that there really is a tight budget. Part of that is down to the fact the club wants to remain nimble in future windows, so they can invest in more talent when needed. The other reason is the flood of sponsorship deals from companies linked to Saudi Arabia simply has not materialised."

"A new shirt sponsor will be unveiled at the start of the 2023-24 season but for now the only extra income is a £7.5 million-a-year shirt sleeve sponsorship deal with Middle East online shopping website Noon. In other words, income levels remain pretty much the same as they were under former owner Mike Ashley and there is only so much new owners - who have already injected more than £10 0million to fund January signings and operating costs - can do."

teeheehee :lol::lol::lol:



As well as appointing a new management team in the boardroom, Newcastle have also invested in modernising the training ground. These costs are separate from FFP rules, although Telegraph Sport understands there was a strict budget in place for this work, too.


Looks like money was even tight for that new conservatory and paint job they did at the training ground. Can't blame FFP for that one!

This meltdown is going to be the biggest one yet!
I was hoodwinked into going to a christening at that training ground, didn't realise it was their training ground until i seen some youngsters running past the window in their barcodes, i thought it was an allotment. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I would be disappointed in Stewart only scores a goal every 4 games.

He's a 32 year old who's always relied on pace.

Yeah I have him as we have no cover but he isn't a great signing unless he has retained his pace and his scoring percentage goes up massively.
Think he’ll still contribute more goals in the championship would have had him as backup but would imagine Stoke will pay him more than we would

He was 1 in 4 in the prem.

He was always good for 1 in 2 at least in the championship

He scored about 1 goal every 8 games in the Premier League for you. Admittedly many of those games were coming on as sub.

He hasn't played in the Championship for about 3 seasons.

Jury is out whether he still has goals in him at 32, 33 in October.
 
I have to admit I’m a little surprised they’ve not gone crazy with their spend. I saw that Diaby was available for 65m euros which Newcastle declined to pay - I was under the impression they’ve got loads of play room under FFP and basically unlimited money, so why not pay it?

Because its all about slow and steady build up and the project and the new owners don't believe in being ripped off because everyone knows they have all this cash.

Or more accurately.... because its not the takeover the mags were expecting and now they're realising it

As the mags are starting to realise having the richest owners in the world doesn’t make you the richest club in the world especially when they have other priorities.
