Newcastle United, ZERO signings...

[Nobby_Barnes]

...and people moan on about our transfer activity. They are the only Premier League side yet to make a signing.

A difficult season awaits....

Why will it be difficult?

They have a top striker who is better than most of the bottom 10 clubs.
They have a good manager.

A good manager and a proven goal scorer means you're more than half way to safety before the season has began.

 

[Lemmy_kilmister]

Very difficult hopefully. I'd love to see them Boycoutt banners again.

Joe Linton top striker????

( tongue firmly in cheek)

 

[Nosmo-King]

They have a far better team than us, in a far better position financially, have a support level virtually double of ours and look fairly comfortable IMO. I am sure they don’t cast many envious eyes in our direction…..

Willock will be a great signing for them, if they get him, but got a feeling he'll end up somewhere like West Ham, Brighton or Palace.

Bruce great manager!!!! Really

He is in his 3rd season now, that is when he normally takes a side backwards (from memory)

Who said he's a great manager?

 

[jonny_greenings_sock]

As per really. They'll be just good enough to finish either 17th or 18th and will have a bunch of failed takeovers, standard Ashley season.

But they are never happy!

 

[Smoggyonthesolent]

you stand still in the Prem, you go backwards. It will be a tough season for them without question. But i'd expect some loan signing will come soon.

Very true! Would love to take Gayle off their hands on loan - cost too much in wages though.

I guess he was referring to Wilson who is quality....they struggled while he was injured.....Joe Linton is awful

I agree, I think Bruce is a good manager

Sorry good not great .. still disagree with you

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

He is, but their fans are incredibly disrespectful towards him.

 

[Middlesbrough123]

We might of had Gayle and longstaff had they made any signings

 

[Erimus74]

100% agree with that, same as their chariman, its not as if they've had a recent history of winning trophies, qualifying for europe, cup finals, etc with top managers & chairmen, trhey had a couple of excellent seasons under Keegan then nothing

They are, Bruce has done just as well at Rafa...
