“This would be quite an interesting turn of events for Newcastle, because you buy a player for 60-odd million, and then the money that's been quoted potentially over 100 million, that will show a really decent return for Newcastle, wouldn't it...
Would be savvy revisiting Marseille again for someone who hasn't quite lived up to it. Some of our lot would still argue the toss about Rowe, though, failing to see the irony!
Think he might regret not signing that contract from a football point of view, but I guess he will get a big signing on fee & decent wages depending on where he ends up.
Hope he gets a good club & enjoys it.
I thought that ended up pretty cost neutral didn’t it? Thought they pretty much paid what we had (Notwithstanding inflation & the dreaded amortisation etc)
