As previously stated, IMO they have not spent like Man C, Man U nor Chelsea, even though that was the expectation. Based on when I made the original which was before they broke their transfer record, my point at that time was correct. Some investment was required and none of the fees were...

I could see Potter being a good fit for Liverpool. I think the fans would give him a bit of time and his methods would work with them IMO. They were willing to give Klopp a bit of time to get things right.

My original post was that they haven’t spent the big bucks and that is correct and I EXPLICITLY referenced the Manc clubs as an example. Man C (another oil club) spent more on 2 fullbacks than we spent on our stadium. So I stick to my point, Newcastle have not done that. Jeez, Burn was £13m...

10th biggest in the league. So mid table then. Thanks for agreeing with me 👍😂

I read a couple of the WH boards and a lot of posters who commented about us/Potter were complimentary. Yes, there was a log of moans about their squad/Moyes and the odd couple of posters with expectations of being better than us (due to history etc.), but mainly they acknowledged how well the...

Personally would prefer a Liverpool win. I don’t dislike Liverpool - probably comes from years of cheering them on in European games in the ‘70’s. That’s when supporting English teams in Europe was more popular then now - maybe because they weren’t perceived to be shafting other clubs like...

I’ll keep it simple for you. My point was that they’ve not spent big like the Manc clubs, Chelsea etc. Yes, they’ve added players but not to the extent that was predicted when they were bought by the Saudis. People were saying that they would be throwing hundreds of millions and buying big...

Your usual garbage. Newcastle fans think £13m Burn was a good buy - so it’s subjective. £25m for a proven PL striker is nothing - so the fee for Wood is not extortionate. Strikers cost more. Trippier - £12m - wow. How do you know what his wages are? Guesswork and probably wrong. Pope - £10m...

So, after 3 games. how are we all feeling now? Having sold 2 big players for us, there was come concern from some people that we'd be a weaker team this season. Obviously, it's still early days, but the new additions to the squad look very exciting and you could make a case that we're actually...

They haven’t spent mega-bucks though have they. They’ve not done what both Manc clubs have done and, from what they’d said, they don’t intend to. Now that may change, but IMO a lot of the improvements is from Howe and sensible recruitment.

C’mon the Toon.

I like Lamptey, but, IMO, March is the better option. I don’t think Lamptey is as composed nor as skilful as March - also, the link-up play between him and Gross is very good. I think Lamptey will need to improve his overall game as he’s lost the surprise element and teams are working out how...

Our record against them in the PL is not great as it is :(

Palace had a 2nd ruled out - shame.

Fulham 2-0 Brentford.

Jeez, some people are so dumb it's painful. I bet you know nothing about the science behind the climate scare. What about ENSO? AMO? PDO? There are 5 climate temperature datasets and they don't agree. 3 are LOTI and 2 are satellite. More energy is stored in the oceans than in the atmosphere...

Considering it was based on the claims that it was global warming causing the death of the reef, what do you suggest has been done to mitigate that FFS? Yep, nothing. Jeez.

OK, I don't listen to the biased BBC nor go onto their 'scientific' climate stuff. The important facts are the climate scare stories are gradually falling apart. Failed climate predictions: 'Some' Climate Forecast Headline Predictions 1967 Salt Lake Tribune: Dire Famine Forecast by 1975...

Fact vs opinion. The fact is it's at 40 (FORTY) year highs. The opinion (scare stories) were that it was dying (due to the bleaching which happened). Same as the arctic would be ice-free by 2012 - never happened. Also, notice that there's been no news about Greenland recently. No reports...

That's illogical. We're higher up in the food chain now so retaining players will be easier. It's only the exceptional ones which we will lose. When we were in the championship, more clubs (like Norwich) were picking up our players.
