    Choices between the devil and the deep blue sea.

    Lots of reports today that Mohammed bin Salman is taking over Newcastle United with Amanda Staveley as a partner who will probably do the day to day running of the club.

    Newcastle could become a serious force once again in English football with the backing of all that Suadi money.

      They will never attract the top players, they want to live in London or Manchester.

        For most people outside the UK, it’s London and rest of the UK so I doubt they’ll be at a significant disadvantage compared to Manchester.

        I would live on the moon for £200k a week

          No sign of civilised life in Newcastle either.

            The moon has little green men, Newcastle has large orange women.

        Yeah that could be problem alright when trying to attract talent.

        Personalty i would rather live in or near Newcastle than London if i had to make a choice.

          I can't stand London. It's one of the last places in England that I'd choose to live. But people from outside the UK see it as the glamorous capital. And at least they will have heard of it.

            I do like some things about London and have spent a few stints working over there but just found it way too over populated and a bit overwhelming for a small town boy like myself.

              This is it. London itself is fine. I don't mind visiting but I'd never want to live there. Far too busy a place for me. I'm from Brum and even that's a bit too hectic for my liking.

      The persona of the lady leading the bid makes me not want to trust her as far as I could throw her.

      1. ᶠᶦˡᵗʰʸLucre $$$

        She used to willingly sleep with Prince Andrew, are you suggesting she's a bad judge of character?

          What? Did she? My word. She must be younger than she looks.

            She was his girlfriend for two years but turned down his marriage proposal.

        I don't know a whole pile about her but if i was to hazard a guess i think she is probably a very able operator.

        She is well in with the horsey crowd and has a good business background in her family.

      Yeah. People say we're delusional but I think realistically we could line up like this next season.

      Dubravka
      TAA VVD Ramos Robertson
      Pogba KDB
      Messi Almiron Mbappe
      Joelinton

      Subs; Ronaldo, Haaland, De Light, De jong, Longstaff, Phil Jones.

      The Saudi family is worth 280 billion. I reckon we could assemble that squad within 3 billion. Pocket change for them.

      But what about FFP you ask? We're not in Europe next season anyway so it doesn't matter

        Think you need a bit more competition for Joelinton in that squad, really keep him on his toes

    Scraping the barrel with article ideas now. Football really is over. 😀

      It must be tough for them EF as they don't really have any marital to work with.

      I suppose they have try to bang out something to justify taking a wage from the company.

      I'm thinking about righting some FPL community articles to fill the void. 🙂

    Disappointing that every name in the phone book got a shoutout on the scoutcast except me. It's clearly personal now. The quality of my questions don't matter. 🙁

    A lot of people have been asking about my reaction to the latest scoutcast. Andy is right - players will be "gagging" to play football, but he is wrong to say "I'm not worried about rotation". Yes, the big names will play to get match fit, but they won't play every 3 days for 3 to 4 weeks solid. Especially since they are coming back from a long rest. Their return to action will be staggered, much like it is in preseason.

      I'm sorry to see this Virg, you don't get the respect you deserve on here

      One expects too much.

    What is everyone else doing with their teams during this period?

    I have 2/3 players who were brought in to help gear me towards BGW, who I'd now rather shift. Only 0.1 itb.

    Giving serious thought to getting shot of KDB to give me easy funds to splash around for when it kicks back in.
