  1. Should be play off celebrations today but instead.... Just go Mowbray !
  2. We are under a transfer embargo unless we sell him before June to get us off the hook at the 11th hour. We need to rebuild the squad which doesn't compute under an embargo. Problem is the other clubs all know and the wolves will be circling with their cut down offers and then 40% to Newcastle.
  3. Just watched the highlights. Nyambe for their goal.... comical at best. Incompetent to be more precise. Like watching an 8yo.
  4. https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2021/may/team-news-rotherham-united-a/
  5. Sell Nyambe £2 million and fit a new stich pitch with eco undersoil heating £2 million. Don't see the problem Swag. We will get promoted if the boys can play on a nice pitch and then what a ROI.
  6. You can take the "lad" out of Darren... But you can't take the Darren out the "lad" incidentally... Wayne Wild tried this WAR approach but after 10 mins at KGH it became obvious it was all about WW. Funny thing was he was never heard of again and the only 2 things of significance which arose. 1. Walk out with Birdy. 2. EWMC "group" Me rhymns with We so can easily understand the faux pas.
  7. Last few pages of histrionics did nothing to make me consider buying a season ticket. Still NO. Still FOV.
  8. And when it transpires part of the deal includes Ewood being renamed the Macron Stadium so Swag can buy some paint. OK the stitch pitch is off the agenda but this tribute to Tony Parkes is really going to be worth the wait.
  9. There was never ever going to be a stitch pitch. Hopefully not one single person ever believed it. Sharpe needs to ask about it and publish their excuses. I'm going for "on hold" until we understand the covid rules and the ST sales forecast. (guilt trip fans routine). No new pitch. Transfer Embargo. Mowbray staying. Boohoo.com new kits. Regressive journey. FOV
  10. This does not mean back to normal life after June. It means that everything should be open (stadiums, theatres, clubs, etc) WITH covid mitigation measures in place to allow them to open. This is what the present trials are all about. To formulate policy on what the measures will be. Covid passports are discrimatory so it is likely to be testing before each match. Customer has to pay for test (as per foreign travel). From the club's point of view this will all need to be managed around ticket sales and safe entry to their site. I don't see away games being an option straight away unless travel, ticket & testing are managed by the official club travel. Then I don't see how packed coaches are going to be a good plan. So I think away matches and home walk ons will be out and entry will be ST only. 4000 limit.
  11. Wont get as much as we think for Arma imo. 40% to Newcastle. sell on clause. Or won't he go for free next summer. And how many clubs will have too much cash to splash after 1.5 seasons behind closed doors. It seems we are looking for £12 million to cover FFP but not sure it is realistic to sell for £30 million. If we don't unload him before June the submitted "projections" were wrong and we are full tilt transfer embargo. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-adam-armstrong-clause-19795691
  12. Arma played really well. First time in months, probably this year. Brereton played really well. Great work rate. Both lively today like early in the season... although the opposition was really really poor. That Harwood Bellis lad is going to have a good career. He is far better than Tosin. Class player. Evans quietly and effectively ran midfield today. Good display.
  13. After today it looks pretty certain the bottom 3 are down.
  14. Tip of the day. Don't listen to Tony's post match interview...it is likely to be an unfathomable alternate reality.
  15. Well these are the worst side in the league. Keeper looks like hes been trained by Ben Benson.
  16. Town are really really shite. Good work from Arma there. The none greedy version. Gally hits target shocker
  17. quick thinking and movement there from Ben.
  18. Gally pulled out of the last 3 tackles. Big soft useless lump.
