Sorry !!

Oh Behave !!! We have a Sunderland Thread - correct. This is not a Crapchester Thread !!! That is all and this is a NEWCASTLE United Forum.

Do we have to keep mentioning Crapchester United so frequently, this is a Newcastle United forum.

Actually we were 5th . . .

YES - we led the whole thing. This change is the very first proposed policy change by the Premier League since our Takeover, that has NOT come "directly out of" the we must STOP-NEWCASTLE-UNITED Premier League Committee Room !!!

Darren Eales is a very clever bloke, working for very clever owners (PIF/Reubens/Staveley) and it was - if you follow the recent events backwards - his clear comments that even we (the perceived "richest club in the world") would have to sell players because of the FFP/PSR restrictions that have led us to where we are today. That statement, which was also gleefully misinterpreted by the media to mean us having to sell our "big" players, sent literal SHOCK waves around the football world and started the snowball of "FFP is not fit for purpose" discussions we have been having ever since, along with the Forest and Everton penalties of course. WE are very G O O D (I know that) and this is just the next step that our very, very, clever owners are taking. There will be more!

The only relevant accounts are for the y/e 30th June 2024. These will be very different to 2023. Wait and see if you don't believe me, and if you would still rather believe the crap media !!!

Someone who actually believes the Media? Simply, N E V E R believe the generalised cr*p in he Media !!

Not bamboozled (great word !!) just disappointed at what your choices of words and phrases tells me about your thought processes and categorisations of people. That's all - nipper !

"Rumours" seemed a very inappropriate word to use. Also "not many people are alive" is another strange phrase to use! Yes, obviously new people are born every day and there have been a lot of 'days' since 1969, but your choice of words betrays your odd thinking. While it is obvious that very quickly the number of new-born can become a larger percentage of the whole population than those born a while ago, It still is not correct to say that the smaller percentage are now to be described as "not many people are alive". That is just weird!

Not sure how winning the Fairs Cup could be a "rumour". We don't set up threads to discuss rumours over on Skyscraper City . . . https://www.skyscrapercity.com/threads/fairs-cup-newcastle-united-the-1969-fairs-cup-win-and-the-50th-anniversary-in-2019-etc.2177948/post-159296132

Why is it that 'people of a certain age' always think they are in some kind of automatic majority? The most obvious way of saying it (in fact the only real way) is simply to say "for some of us".

WRONG . . . SEE - https://www.skyscrapercity.com/threads/fairs-cup-newcastle-united-the-1969-fairs-cup-win-and-the-50th-anniversary-in-2019-etc.2177948/post-159296132

I agree, it is pretty shite. Why do the Yanks even call it "Football"??? Football is the main spectator sport in most of the major countries around the civilised world, yet the Yanks adopt a Rugby Game, and choose to call it "Football". Their Rugby game is . . . (1) Played to Rugby-style rules (scoring 'tries/touchdowns' etc) (2) Played with a Rugby shaped Ball. (3) Played with Rugby style 'goals' on a Rugby style pitch. (4) Played 95% with their HANDS ! Yet, they call it "FOOT"BALL !!!!!!!!
