Whilst Newcastle may have spent £40m+ this summer they have also sold £60m+ as they are rebuilding. We spent £25m without even getting rid of anyone so all this Newcastle are trying to buy the league is rubbish, of course they are but we also tried the same and failed. 1st point yes agreed shouldn't jump to conclusions. 2nd point i disagree, newcastle in my opinion would still have soent what they have, they only seem to have sold players that effectively wanted out.... townsend the fella thats gone 2 pool etc... if they were genuinely looking to offload players to bring others in the likes of mitrovic shelvey mbemba would have been put up for auction.... this is my personal opinion however and i respect yours and everyones elses opinion of course..... just personally feel they would still have splashed all this dough regardless, just as villa are doing without selling anyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to compete, but it's not unfair, spend what you earn, which is more than we've done for years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't Burnley coming down with a squad of players far too good for the Championship, they have top players and needed to replace and I expect they will see more players leave over the next few days which is why they are still bringing new faces in. You say they would have splashed the cash regardless but we'll never know that, they have spent money because they needed to spend money, they are signing decent players because they need decent players to go back up. Newcastle are a big big club, they won't want to settle for Championship football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point does stand however. If we're trying to position ourselves to potential recruits as premier league in waiting, then how big a draw are we likely to be? Including NP?

The American owners covered losses of £8 million a year and Morris has already spent £25 million on players out of his own pocket, so the reality is that for several years we have spent far more than we have earned. There has to come a point when Morris won't keep paying over the odds for players (which is exactly what we did in respect 90% of the new signings last season) and we must be close to the Fair Play limits. If we had the benefit of parachute payments, and players to sell for very significant fees, we would be doing exactly the same as Newcastle and Villa and don't lets kid ourselves that we wouldn't. The fact is that we blew our chance last season when Morris was throwing large amounts of money about, we bought badly and now we are paying the price. We will buy before the deadline but we might have to sell and we won't be paying inflated prices. Its time for a reality check folks, we are just another club who had the benefit of a very large amount of money and threw much of it down the drain.
