In other shocking news, grass is green.
They can slow us down but it won’t stop the inevitable.

This new vote is absolutely an attempt by the premier league big boys (arguably excluding City) to reduce the toon and diminish our performances this season
Eddie you’re not meant to go full mask off my guy
Scumbag club
Such a dramatic headline for a failry milquetoast response. The Guardian with their usual clickbait.
Although Howe was reluctant to be drawn on the specifics of Newcastle’s resistance plan, he said when asked whether the club would fight such changes: “You can make that assumption.”

They got the headline from this…
But why read the article when the headline lets me get outraged?
Well it’s not word for word the same but he still says they will try to resist a pretty sensible rule, presumably so they can abuse it
He literally doesn’t say that though. He says the journalists can make all the assumptions they like but it’s not his place as a coach to comment. You can watch the press conference on youtube instead of spreading disinformation.
Not surprising Howe wouldn’t have had Neves in his plans since before he left Wolves. He’s one of only a few clear choice to fill the Tonali void. Of course he’s not for the ban
Fuck Newcastle
As someone who’s always held a relatively positive opinion of Newcastle as both a football club and as a city, it’s sad to see the club act like this. I don’t blame Newcastle fans for being delighted that Mike Ashley is gone but the attitude coming out from the club, the staff and certain parts of the fanbase really rubs you the wrong way at times and it’s very disappointing
That video that was making the rounds on social media a while back of some Newcastle fans being very disrespectful towards the older fan voicing his opinions on the takeover wasn’t nice to watch at all
Fair enough. I’d probably feel the same way if it was West Ham that was taken over. I will say though that I can vouch for at least some of the fanbase - and I’d wager it’s a mostly silent majority - being uncomfortable with the Saudi aspect. We just want to enjoy supporting our club without defending/deflecting with the horrible shit the Saudi state does.
“Manager of football club indicates they will take every advantage they can possibly get for said football club”

Funniest bit is he didn’t even say it!
A compromise solution would be to allow it but settle on a fair price formula and then apply a penalty to FFP with a multiplier. For example if the donor club bought the player for 40m, then take that value divide by the years to amortize it (say 4 years at 40m, 10m per year) and require the recipient club to incur an FFP penalty equal to that times a factor for the financial year of the loan. If the factor in the above example is x2 then it’s minus 20 million towards FFP for the year (10m x2).
Hell, you can make the factor even scale based on the last rank of the club so the more successful a club becomes the more associated loans cost towards FFP.
While I appreciate the effort in trying to put a penalty on it you’d need to consistently apply it across Europe if you’re talking FFP. So say Ineos get their partial takeover of Man Utd, OGC Nice would become a linked club, as would Lausanne.
Previously, both clubs could take Sancho on loan to try and resurrect his career, but now it’d cost them a huge amount in FFP, but Monaco could do it for “free”. Difficult one to police.
How about the Geordie Oil Barons go fuck themselves, huh?
Eddie Howe is a sports washing cunt with no morals.
Well well well
