More points but, much more importantly, playing well and having a go at the opposition rather than the drab and dire football being served up for about a year. The last 3 results merely papered over the cracks imo. 2

I was pointing out the position Newcastle were in when he took them over and that he got them within 3 points of ourselves. That's not negative, that's a matter of fact, he did a good job. We at the end, flattered to deceive in comparison imo. Always handy to get that £150 million boost

Think you'll find it was between 90-100m which as you rightly suggest is considerable. Players still have to slot in and settle. Nevertheless, Trippier only started 5 of the 7 games he played and was injured for 12. Wood was a flop. Byrne and Guimaraes did very well. Howe's contribution however was considerable imo to turn that seemingly sinking ship round. 3

The players are not that bad, just had a shocking manager at the time. Benitez got them performing at a similar level with a lesser squad. They will fly this season mind. 1

I think this why you'll see more foreign purchases now as their salary demands are a little lower. as i understand it, they are offering packages whereby salaries increase year on year to average out over a five year period. there are plenty of ways around a circle

I think they said they play games all over the country (and maybe beyond), often with just local players wherever they play. I can't remember the name of it now. Could have been Download FC, but I've just tried searching that and came up with nothing. Memory's a bit hazy , but I thought it was a decent idea, anyway. Now I think Download FC might be something else. Definitely heard of them not too long ago. I remember thinking about how awful the name is. Even if you like it, searching it brings up f all. 2
