Well there's a couple of clubs under investigation too so we can see how that plays out but we have had our opportunity and blown it.
Newcastle Utd (and Viz)

Who else is under investigation and has been referred to an independent commission?
There’s us and Man City from the best of my knowledge. And City are more than likely going to get away with it and even if they don’t, it won’t be settled till years after our issue is dealt with.
It's not just about transfer fees .
Our wages to turnover ratio has been the highest in the premier league for years now.

If we'd used our money successfully we wouldn't be worrying about others.

Yep, we have been at 95% which has now reduced a bit. Yet Newcastle are at 95% as well.

It’s literally the Newcastle thread. If you don’t want to see discussion around other teams, don’t come into their threads.

Irrelevant statement there's clearly lots of things to discuss regarding Newcastle like them having a great win today, something we could have done if we weren't so stupid financially.

You could have posted about their win then.
Instead you came on to bitch about other posters who do want to discuss their finances. Which is completely fine to do, in their thread.

You just sound really bitter that they've spent well and got a manager doing well that our fans didn't want. Let's see where they are next season though we finished 5th once before it all fell apart.

I’m not bitter at all. I live up in Newcastle and after Everton, they are the team I watch most and discuss pretty much daily with my family/friends/colleagues. I also think Howe has done an excellent job and while I didn’t want him back in 2019 as don’t think he was ready then but I said he would become a top manager. And unfortunately for us. When we sacked Benitez, he was then unavailable.
We spent badly and have royally screwed it up. That doesn’t mean we can’t discuss other clubs finances.
But under the Ashley years they never posted losses and even posted small profits.
They have a 3 year window now which will be helped by Champions League football which will increase commercial revenue.
They will engineer inflated commercial deals on the back of this.
Sounds like you and mooms will have your mags banners out for the win

I really can't stand Spurs to be honest. Newcastle remind me of Martinez's first season with us, we know how that turned out and I have a feeling similar will happen to them.

Been posting losses since 2019/20 prior to Ashley leaving. And that year was a near £70m swing from a profit to loss.
I don’t think they get a 3 year refresh. They have to still work off their rolling 3 year cycle which included big losses this year. They also have to get their wages down as it is stricter when playing in Europe except their new players are coming in on much higher wages than previously.
I fully expect inflated sponsorship deals, but there will have to be an element of them proving it is fair market value and the history of sponsorship deals would show that having one good season doesn’t jump up the cash to the levels of the scab 6. See us, see Leicester etc.
I think champs league is a tipping point and they will kick on now, horrible to see but its a golden ticket with their backing.
The criticisms of their ownership and the corruption on a UK government level that allowed them in are absolutely legitimate in my opinion. As much as I can't stand the team the few newcastle fans who still speak out against the owners are heroes in my eyes. Football fans, including us are a sychopantic bunch if you put a potential trophy in front of us.
