Villan4Life Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Newcastle want Thomas Tuchel but he is only interested for next summer! http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2892557/Newcastle-sound-Thomas-Tuchel-told-German-coach-does-not-want-return-employment-summer.html#comments Newcastle United have sounded out German coach Thomas Tuchel over their managerial vacancy but been told he does not wish to return to employment until next summer. Tuchel, 41, built a reputation as one of Europe’s brightest young coaches by guiding Mainz to sustained high placings in the Bundesliga before stepping down, much to their dismay, in May. He has been approached by Schalke, Hamburg, and Bayer Leverkusen in the past but is said to be determined to enjoy his break from the game to wait for the right opportunity.

Villan4Life Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Check the comments section on link with Newcastle fans giving their verdict on WHY they are a bigger club than us http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-united-against-aston-villa-8737839 But then Newcastle have at least managed to appear in the Champions League a couple of times and hosted the likes of Barcelona and Inter Milan. Yes! And Newcastle have a bigger stadium that regularly manages to sell out. Take that Villa! However, the reality is neither club has much to shout about. The truth is – on paper – both clubs are big. Newcastle are arguably bigger in that if an oil-rich owner came in and injected mega funds they could be bigger globally and already have a bigger stadium. Newcastle could compete in the top four if the right amount of money was injected. Villa thought they’d found their sugar daddy when Randy Lerner came in a few years ago, but he soon tightened the purse strings. We now hear he’d be willing to flog Villa for £150million – which is a decent price considering the TV prize money available in the next few years. However, if Villa were relegated it would be one of the biggest cases of football neglect since . . . well Newcastle, really. The two tales aren’t too dissimilar. If Villa go down this season it would be a story book from the same shelf as Newcastle going down in 2009. Mike Ashley’s enthusiasm was curbed when fans reacted angrily to Keegan leaving the club because he didn’t have control on transfers. It meant he was forced to appoint Joe Kinnear and the Londoner then laid the foundations for relegation. This season Villa have found themselves in trouble, changed manager and must find more wins in 12 games than they have managed all season. So the season could end with Villa in the Championship and Newcastle as a mid-table team. That’s some distance away from Villa lifting the League Cup and United finishing third in the Premier League table under Keegan. Both are fallen giants. The only difference is that St James’ Park will be close to a full house on Saturday and empty seats are always on the menu at Villa. Mat Kendrick Our friends in the north have set us this poser ahead of the proceedings at St James’ Park: Are Newcastle United a bigger club than Aston Villa? The obvious answer to that Toon teaser is that not everything in football is so black and white. Sometimes it’s claret and blue. When it comes to living off past glories then, yes, Aston Villa are a bigger club than Newcastle, because they actually have a longer list of past glories to refer back to. Apologies to Birmingham City and West Bromwich Albion fans for banging this drum again, Aston Villa have actually lifted the European Cup. And while they have not yet matched the Magpies’ achievement of playing in the modern version of the competition – that night on May 26, 1982 surely eclipses the handful of Champions League nights that St James’ Park has witnessed. It’s 7-4 to the Brummies in terms of First Division titles when it was neither black or white or claret and blue, but more of a sepia-tint (ask your grandad and your grandad’s grandad). Seven FA Cup triumphs and the faint glimmer of an eighth offering the only silver lining to another cloudy campaign, edges Villa ahead in the cup triumphs category too. Like Newcastle, Villa have had to wait far too long to win anything, but that wait only goes back to the 1994 and 1996 League Cup wins - the fourth and fifth time they have won that particular pot - not 1969 when you won the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup. Your couple of top flight runner up seasons two decades or so ago? Check, Villa boast those too. An Intertoto cup win in the Noughties? Yep, got one of those too! For Alan Shearer, we’ll raise you Peter Withe, and throw in Gary Shaw too if you like. Villa have provided more England internationals that any other club as well... But all of this is getting away from the question, which was ‘are’ not ‘were’. Edited March 1, 2015 by Villan4Life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimzk5 Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Newcastle are a 1 club city, that's why they get a bigger a crowd Yes a majority of our trophys were won before the war but weve still lifted more in the last 30 years than they have in there history Or does the texaco cup matter more than the European cup? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 one club city, not many teams near them and i might also add hardly any immigrants where brum and the west mids is full of immigrants who will follow utd,liverpool,arsenal or chelsea if they follow anyone. also football is a way of life up that way where as its not so fanatical down this way. we are the bigger club overall.

rodders0223 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Newcastle United have announced a record annual profit of £18.7m for 2013-14, the fourth consecutive financial year they have made money. The Premier League club's debt remains at £129m, which they say is an interest-free loan from owner Mike Ashley. "The club benefits from a supportive owner and is financially stable," said managing director Lee Charnley. "This gives us a strong platform from which to grow, on and off the pitch." He added: "A result of which means, as we move forward, we are able to net spend on the playing squad and invest in other areas of the business."
