If you havenβt been in Newcastle
City centre in the last decade you may get a surprise, and not a good one!

Wouldnβt say itβs vastly superior. Itβs a pretty city centre but not overly big and outside the βtourist stuffβ in Edinburgh not a lot, in fact think itβs pretty boring (but each to their own). But think weβre heading off on a tangent away from footie here! Ha! π
18.08.2025 19:28 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Mate Liverpool city centre these days is a million miles better than Newcastle and Manchester can offer much more if city living is what youβre after. If youβre after a tired city centre have a wander around Newcastle these days. Footballers probably not arsed but their families have to live there 2
18.08.2025 19:08 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0They leaked shite to the media about a potential bid that unsettled him and his agent saw Β£ signs. So aye can be furious. Plus youβve all been so entitled the last few weeks on these NUFC feeds, shame cos I always liked Liverpools fans (well the scouse ones anyway) you were great after the cup final
18.08.2025 19:06 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Although I hate PSR it not just the cartel voting it in. You need 14 votes to pass a law in the PL. those clubs at the bottom of the pecking order in terms of cash to invest also wanted it introduced, they do not want another 3 or 4 teams like NUFC, Villa etc. joining the already rich 6 clubs.
18.08.2025 18:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Sorry that was a bit overly negative. We played well Saturday but I couldnβt see a goal coming at all and that is a real concern
18.08.2025 18:55 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I am not convinced weβll get any in. Reckon itβll be Gordon/ Osula till January and weβll make a sharp exit out of the CL, just hope we donβt embarrass ourselves and if we really are shit we can kiss a 5th spot from PL on the CL next season
18.08.2025 18:54 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Apart from LFC leaking to its shills that they have offered Β£120m for Isak mid July, start of the month Isak was happily training with the squad in Austria next thing he has downs tools. So aye we can and should be antagonistic towards LFC. Canβt wait for the match and Joelinton and Trippier into it
18.08.2025 18:51 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Iβm not holding my breathβ¦..
18.08.2025 18:47 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Hmmm, not sure about Newcastle on a par with Manchester and Liverpool in terms of attractiveness as a city. Both are much bigger and can offer rich people a lot more than up here. You had a wander around the town recently? Liverpool also is such a legacy team too it sells itself.
18.08.2025 18:41 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Am just sick of reading about it and there being Liverpool fans from South Carolina or Slovakia all over our feed.
18.08.2025 18:38 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0well anyone really, I just want rid of him. I am veering towards if we get Wissa (and I am not sure we will!) then I say make do, sell Isak, and look around and bring someone in January
18.08.2025 17:28 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Think that would involve us keeping him for a season and I donβt think that is tenable.

18.08.2025 17:26 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Wish NUFC would hurry up and get in 2x strikers in and flog Isak to LFC, I am sick of LFC fans bleating on about him with shite like βFree Isakβ and it appearing in the NUFC feed. Isakβs agent has been quiet over the wkend tho and is way over due in sending something new to Ornstein or Romano #NUFC
18.08.2025 13:34 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 3 π 0I am not convinced the club is doing much at all in terms of a new ground π¬
18.08.2025 11:38 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Totally that. Anyone now we deal with will know weβre desperate and add on many millions. We had no outlet for a goal Saturday even though we played well and Villa only had 10 men.
18.08.2025 11:37 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Weβre gonna get a Saudi tax added on and a βtheyβre desperateβ tax on top. Hence the Β£60m quoted for Wissa, he is max Β£40m (and I think that is highly), Β£10m Saudi tax and Β£10m desperate tax
18.08.2025 11:36 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Bring in who? There is like 2 weeks left in the window and no other rumours of Wissa to replace Wilson and βpie in the skyβ rumours for Isak. If we get no striker in at all weβre fucked, we played so well Saturday and had zero natural outlet for a goal. Or we keep Isak who is toxic now

17.08.2025 15:49 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0No but your owners was gagging for Β£700m off them in 2022!
17.08.2025 15:49 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0No I think your a leftie virtue signaller on social media, which is totally fine, but take it elsewhere, maybe some politics feed or something similar the whole βsports washingβ shite is boring and there ainβt any Saudi money to spend cos we arenβt allowed to spend it.
17.08.2025 15:48 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Beside where is the Saudi money? Wish we bloody had some! We arenβt allowed to spend any of it!
17.08.2025 15:46 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Or did you forget MUFC/ Glazer family offered PIF a 30% share in MUFC in 2022 for a staggering Β£700m? People who live in glass houses and all thatβ¦.. I think people on here come on to talk about matches/ players/ results not about geopolitics. Not one PL club owner is whiter than white, not one.
17.08.2025 15:45 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 3 π 0You having a laugh? So you remember MUFC partnership with General Sports Authority of Saudi Arabia back in 2017? Where you benefited from 10βs millions of Β£, or MUFC partnership with Saudi Telecom in 2008 when again your club was broadcasted through Saudi Telecom, again you raking in millions of Β£
17.08.2025 15:45 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Hope he does get his move as I say and I hope Elitike is amazing and he has to sit on the bench most the season or his troublesome groin injury reappears. That more a dig at him rather than LFC, I think heβs an absolute arse hole.
17.08.2025 14:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Hope we get a replacement in and we ca. get rid of him. Best of luck with him and his dodgy agent if he does end up as Anfield. As it is I donβt think weβll get a replacement in (Wissa apart who is Wilson replacement) and then I think itβs a 50/50 whether he has to stay at NUFC or get his move.
17.08.2025 14:27 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Bore off with the virtue signalling and sports washing crap , put it on the PIF website and not football feeds.
