[Football] Where do you think Newcastle will finish this season?

[Icy Gull]

Seems that having signed Isak, they are possibly going after Maddison of Leicester and who knows probably other players

Potentially 120 million spent in a week is the sort of business I was expecting them to do from the off in truth

Anyway if Smug can keep all these star players happy I reckon a top four finish is pretty likely?

Ideally it will all go pear shaped but I doubt it, Smug is a good manager but it will be interesting to me to see if he can keep team spirit up if he has some disgruntled superstars not playing.

What think you?

5th or 6th

A Southampton/Albion season a la Gus Poyet in League One days?

Nice idea

Don't care.

Wherever they technically finish, they have already lost (their soul)

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Since being promoted alongside us back in 2016/17 we seem to have kept pace with one another, rarely finishing more than a couple of places or so apart from each other in the table.

I don't see that changing too much this time round to be honest. somewhere between 6th and 9th perhaps?

I certainly don't see them challenging for a Champions League place quite yet.

No Pole Icy ?

I don't dare post polls on football any more

Poles are greasy on here

6th - 9th realistically but lower hopefully. Disgusting club nowadays.

 

[Shirty]

6th or 7th-ish I would think. They seem to have recruited pretty sensibly (at least, more so than I expected), but not sure they have the strength in depth to make a serious push for top 4. Of course if they get to Christmas near the top I'm sure they'll throw some more money at it to keep the push going.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

They'll cock it up, as is their way.
Maybe 8th or 9th...but really don't care too much about them

That’s me sorted. Saves me thinking what to write

5th or 6th

This.

They'll spend big in January too.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Could not give a shit. I'm just waiting for [MENTION=240]larus[/MENTION] to come along and tell us how it's all great coaching when they've had over a 100 mill net spend since the Saudis came in and their first signing was Kieran Trippier

 

[Lever]

Don't care.

Absolutely this.

Although I don't blame their supporters for dreaming of glory, for me it is a pyrrhic victory.....

 

[Poyningsgull]

8th, behind us in 6th
