Sorry, yes net spend. Try not to take it let my comment get under your skin too much, it was just a throwaway remark more about Bruce’s commentary on our transfers.

I get that you were joking, but those really are really different. It would probably be fairer to say that we've bought at least 3 starters while they have bought 1.

I've been noticing a lot of very good Championship players turning out to be Newcastle academy rejects. Maybe Shearer was wrong and they do have good Jawdies coming through, but nobody is willing to give them a chance lest they threaten that sweet sweet PL survival. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HanoiVillan Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I was kind of hoping they won, so there would be no pressure on them next week. They only ever seem to turn up when the pressure is on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As poor as Newcastle are, he's a right good player. A bit like Watford and Sarr. Edited August 15, 2021 by pas5898 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 I could easily see them going without a win until they play Watford in their 6th game, which could be starting to look like a 6 pointer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
