Newcastle United 4-0 Tottenham Hotspur (13/04/24) | Reaction: pg 36

They could have made more about the haptic shirts we've pioneered and all the good work on them too, if it'd been one of the red team they'd have been spunking over it. -

The sooner FFP gets removed in favour of a luxury tax the better, the whole FFP system is a shambolic embarrassment as it stands. Regardless of the implications towards us, regular messing about with deductions, chopping and changing the table, it's just cocking up where teams are placed too much, nobody knows whether they're coming or going and there's always that possible specter over your shoulder and that where you 'think' the teams are in the table, might not actually be the case, so nobody knows what to aim for. Just a mess from start to finish - it's becoming a balance sheet championship for most teams, more than actual football being played. -

Is this a direct result of teams like Notts Forest, etc actually questioning the competition legalities of FFP/PSR and consulting legal teams? NDM knows. -

Would UEFA want to hamstring the interest in their leagues/competitions by blocking big spending teams from leagues that have wised up to the FFP/PSR nonsense? -

Isak and Bruno must get pissed off with all their efforts going to waste. It's tonight's sort of fuck-up that could sew the seeds of possible summer moves to teams that might actually win things (or at least grind out results!). -

2 easy points lost there, shit result against a shit team. Won't be sad to see them relegated this year. -

Should have been put to bed ages ago, our lot dicking around too much. Still, the ref's been way too soft and been letting the scouse wanks get away with no end. Hate Everton, hate Dyche, they deserve fuck all from this match, diving fucks. -

"Ashley Young, he eats bird shit" That's all I hear when I see him or hear his name. -

Seems like a pretty energetic team to be fair, will be interesting to see how the younger lads approach this. -
I mean, I'd hope not, I just don't trust any of them.

I don't doubt any of that or disagree with it. My take would be more on how anyone can prove or disprove he's already working on the sly for the Mancs, be it via an intermediary or otherwise. Whether something is against a law or not doesn't stop people breaking said law, what's the worse that would happen to him? A fine? I'm sure Man Utd would be able to cover whatever pittance it'd be if it came to it. Is a fine going to be more than suggested compensation? Besides, as I said, I don't see any way of catching them out, unless the intermediary used blabbed.
