My Point of Toon

#NUFC Appreciation Post 🖤🤍

Arguably Rafa’s most important signing ✍️🏻

Points, survivals, and cup runs depended on #Dúbravka between the posts 🧤

Maybe not a club legend, but deserves as much praise as any other player from the past decade.

Best wishes, Martin. Howay the Lads 🙌🏻

I’ve got 2️⃣ schools of thought 🤔 on the drawn-out #Šeško saga:

☝🏻 He’s overlooked the best move for his development — manager, squad, and #UCL football ⚽️

✌🏻 Or he knows his mind and hasn’t let more money 💰 elsewhere sway him.

There’s something to be said for the latter.

Benjamin Sesko U-turns over Man Utd transfer after Newcastle talks | Football | Metro News RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko has opted to join Newcastle United instead of Manchester United

Maybe — just maybe — our luck is about to take an unexpected turn 🤞🏻

Makes you wonder 🤔 if a certain ex-manager 🇩🇪 from a certain Merseyside club has been pulling a few strings 🧵 behind the scenes ⁉️

Alexander Isak — It’s Not Personal, It’s The Business of Football At the time of writing, while the bright lights dim down in the Swiss city of Basel following the joy and celebrations had by England’s Lionesses, the rest of the football world holds its bre…

After the drama 🎭 of the past week, the time felt right to return with my two cents' worth ✍️

With emotions 😰 running high on all sides, click below 🔗 to read my take on Alexander Isak, his future, and Newcastle United's reality.

Alexander Isak tells Newcastle he wants to explore a transfer away CRAIG HOPE: Alexander Isak has told Newcastle he wants to explore a move away from the club, Mail Sport can exclusively reveal.

▪️ Felt inevitable since the agent first blew their trumpet 🎺
▫️ How #NUFC handles this is vital
▪️ Optics 👀 can influence other players
▫️ Need ducks 🦆 in a row to identify a replacement
▪️ Would love to see the club go all in for Šeško 🎯

#NUFCFans #Newcastle

Absolutely right 💯
▪️ The club may not be top priority 🔝 #PIF
▫️ But delays in filling vacancies & sign-offs 🤝🏻 are setting us back
▪️ All well and good doing a No.1 ☝🏻 lap around Wembley 🏟
▫️ Actions speak louder 🗣 than words.
▪️ Lack of progress not lost on the dressing room.

#NUFC #NUFCFans #Newcastle

My takeaways from yesterday:
▪️No issue leaving #Isak at home 🏡
▫️No-win situation for the gaffer ⚖️
▪️Haggling over transfers fees 🏷 and extracting value
▫️Tough when fishing 🎣 with clubs that have bigger rods & bait
▪️4-0 defeat should be a wake-up call ⏰️
▫️That includes you too, PIF 🫵🏻

Agree 💯 with @editkev.football here, though I won’t begin speculating on wage demands, ceilings 🚫

Regardless of how the #Ekitike saga ends, #NUFC should be applauded 👏🏻 for their ambition to reinforce or maintain star power ⭐️ up top.

IMO, the situation stays fluid until end of August ⚖️

#NUFCFans

In the words of Romano, here you go:
medium.com/@mypointofto...

Considering the number of local lads that make the first team, what a brilliant career and service 🎖 #Longstaff has given #NUFC

#LUFC is getting a dependable, hard-working player, and I hope he thrives in his new surroundings at Elland Road 🏟

All the best, Longy, and thanks for the memories 👏🏻

Good point, it touches on something I wrote ✍️🏻 back in January about PSR.

#Isak has reached star status ⭐️ which comes with higher wages. Without more revenue, you can’t keep breaking the wage structure for a player.

Whether he leaves 🧳 this summer or stays another season remains a fluid situation.

IMO absolutely 💯 his name is Lewis Miley. He needs more opportunities next season

Transfer Insiders, for what their worth!

Scalvini, Trafford, Ekitike & Gallagher are the names doing the rounds on the rumour mill 🗣

But who would YOU 🫵🏻 #NUFCFans like to see come through the revolving door at St James’ 🏟?

Drop your thoughts 💭 in the comments 👇🏻

#NUFC #Newcastle

I’m struggling to believe the legitimacy of this one 📰

A few schools of thought 🤔:

▪️ Unlike 2022, #Ekitike isn’t an unproven commodity
▫️ Big money 💰 for a backup
▪️ Therefore whose place in front 3️⃣ is he taking❓️
▫️ A smokescreen for other deals 🤝🏻 in the background❓️

#NUFC #NUFCFans #Newcastle

It’s only been hours since the announcement 📢, but that big grin 😁 is already infectious. #Elanga

Few things beat a pacey, direct winger in black & white ⚫️⚪️

That front 3️⃣, when fit and firing 🔥, is going to be so much fun to watch 👀 next season.

#NUFC #NUFCFans #Newcastle

#NUFC Appreciation Post 🖤🤍

Given the history of local lads leaving too soon, Sean deserves all our applause 👏🏻

Endured dark days 🌨 under the previous manager and fought through it all.

Has been pivotal, with many standout performances.

We’ll always remember that night 👇🏻

#NUFC Appreciation Post 🖤🤍

With the club strongly linked 🔗 again this week to a pacy 🌪 right-sided attacker, here’s another from our past.

One of my personal favourites 🦊—rarely talked 🗣 about enough from the Entertainers era in the mid-90s.

#NUFCFans #Newcastle

Howe & Tindall will coach that out of him 💯 He hasn't had the managers or stability to really develop yet.

Champions League 16/02/2022 / Goal Elanga against Atletico Madrid

Let’s assume a deal gets done 🤝🏻 ...

▪️ Excited to see impact 🧙‍♂️ in a front-footed team
▫️ Pace on the break in #UCL 🇪🇺 will be fun to watch 🍿
▪️ Murphy will raise his game.
▫️ Partnership with Isak 🇸🇪 can blossom 🌸
▪️ He’s already had big-stage moments 👇🏻

Relax Kev. On the verge doesn't mean it has been accepted. Positive nonetheless though👍🏻

In fairness to the lads & lasses in creative marketing at #Adidas, they’ve definitely earned their coin 🪙 with these promos 🎬

Every launch 🚀 since they came back on board last year — nailed it 🎯

#NUFC #NUFCFans #Newcastle

▪️ Second-youngest GK 🧤 signed in #EPL era after Shay Given.
▫️ More first-team experience 🥅 by age 2️⃣2️⃣
▪️ Brings a new dimension 💫 to United's build-up play.
▫️ Not the finished article yet.
▪️ Howe's interest 👀 hasn’t faded for a reason.

Gets my thumbs up 👍🏻 if it happens
#Newcastle #NUFC #NUFCFans

This move would be significant for many reasons:

▪️Not 1️⃣, but 2️⃣ attackers with positional freedom
▫️Nightmare 🌪 for opposing defenders
▪️Provides another dimension in Europe 🇪🇺
▫️Possible succession plan for the near-future❗️

No written pieces from me until the paper has been signed ✍️🏻 #NUFC

After being demoted to Lique deux by the DNGC, what does the future hold for Olympique Lyonnais, and are they a near certainty to bounce straight back up? @radiodotun.bsky.social

Rather than worry 😓 over the lack of #NUFC incomings, let’s look ahead to our #UCL campaign 🇪🇺

Based on teams already confirmed, here’s my current wishlist of league phase opponents:

Pot 1: Real Madrid 🇪🇸 PSG 🇫🇷
Pot 2: Atalanta 🇮🇹 Frankfurt 🇩🇪
Pot 3: Ajax 🇳🇱 Sporting 🇵🇹
Pot 4: Galatasaray 🇹🇷 Union SG 🇧🇪

Taking time out of my summer ⛱️ to drop my view 🪙 on the latest #Isak rumours...

▪️ Volume of noise 📰 suggests his agent's been busy 🗣
▫️ 3️⃣ years left on the contract & no release clause keeps #NUFC in control
▪️ Astronomical price tag 💰 this summer
▫️ Club's stance may soften depending on negotiations

▪️This highlights why PM was brought in.

▫️Unearthing gems at home & abroad 🛩 at fair prices 🏷

▪️Is the club too focused on ready-made 🥧 players❓️

▫️It’s NOT a ‘Saudi’ 🇸🇦 tax—it’s an #EPL tax 💰

▪️This summer’s business will say a lot about the current mindset 🧠

▫️A DOF is essential long-term.

#NUFC

What an absolutely brilliant evening at King’s Hall 🎭 in Ilkley—getting to meet and thank 🤝🏻 one of, if not the true hero of my youth.

Still as charismatic, engaging 🗣, and entertaining as during those glorious years in my adolescence.

There is, and always will be, only one Kevin Keegan 🤴🏼

⚫️ Contrasting tones 🗣 from The Athletic and Daily Mail 📰

⚪️ Eales seen as central to last summer’s fallout 🤨

⚫️ Guilty of poor due diligence and nepotism.

⚪️ Despite some good work, PM was sledging uphill ⛰️ from day 1️⃣

⚫️ Have the board learned lessons ⁉️

⚪️ Howe has shown he deserves backing 💰
