Newcastle game on ESPN

[Horsham Gull]

If we beat Wrexham we will be on ESPN Saturday 28th Jan 5:15 Kick Off. Clubs receive £123,500 payment.

Great news - and yet another reason to put out a strong side and make sure we beat our friends from North Wales!

But are you SURE ?? It seems far TOO organised to know already !

It will surely be seen as rather innapropriate by Bloom/Perry and co if Gus doesn't take this fixture at Wrexham seriously now.

We aren't struggling for money now but losing out on £120,000 + gate receipts + press exposure by putting out a weak team would be very poor.

 

[Pinkie Brown]

Please Gus, put out a strong side against Wrexham. There's some serious dosh to be made for the club in order to help stock our transfer piggy bank.

If we don't play Dunk, CMS, Noone, Bridcutt etc then I don't believe Gus has no money to spend.

Or maybe S4C will try to muscle in and change the date etc. if Wrexham win!

eh?

If we don't play any of them then I do believe Gus has no money to spend.

A couple of hundred grand wouldn't replace any of those players if they got injured.

 

[Turkey]

I imagine that Newcastle game could be worth about half a million quid to us wouldn't it? Tony should tell Gus he has 500k to spend if we beat Wrexham.

Eh? It is the £125K PLUS £67,500 prize money.

£200k will easily pay for two prem quality loans for the rest of season.

Maybe we should tell Wrexham they can have the £123,500 payment if they let us win the replay.

Plus 67k prize money. It will be worth over 200k just to get through.

God i hate ESPN.

Especially when there parent club help towards wages.

So is this going to be on ITV4 on the Sunday at 12pm?

 

[The Large One]

5.15pm kick-off?

Not going to help any hometown Newcastle fans get home.

I see another bumper weekend trade for the hotels...

I can also see them drinking our stadium dry.

No one ever said we couldn't pay for loans.

Only thing that worries me ( as much i want the newcastle game to happen) will be how tired we will be for the palace game after, they dont have a match saturday aswell. We cant lose both games to them this season? The amount of games we had in the short space of time before the last palace game was too much.
