@deanharding740 he didn't just buy in to Castore, he actively contrived to make sure he would , surreptitiously, rule the roost over our, very, lucrative kit sales . You can tell what the brothers who's business it had been think because they now say they were horrified about the stranglehold Trashley wangled over the new owners ! He's a limpet, once in he just won't let go, let's hope he hasn't wrecked Carstore's business because they were taking it slowly & doing OK till he swamped them !
Interesting action by Man City who say that associated sponsoring rules by Premier league are illegal And City are surfing the Premier league. If they win this means that Saudi can sponsor NUFC for whatever they want. Could make a massive difference to NUFC in way of receiving sponsor money from PIF.
Welcome back Adidas!! The shirts will sell well - with more money coming in for our club. As for how much Toon tops are these days - same for all premier league fans (and non of the money will find its way into fcb’s sweaty mits).
Money makes the world go round. Though it is apparently daily, now and then a representative example crops up. It is the quintessential game behind the game as it were. I am optimistic that the owners are invested in the club itself in addition to growth and profit projections. They are certainly painting a long term picture that they don't intend to divest from. Some degree of security from that honestly. I will make no presumptions about our roster until ink is on paper and we are getting our pre-season starting lineups. It is shaping up to be an exciting summer.
The Ashley court case is still running. He failed to get a temporary injunction to prevent the exclusivity deal, but the court of appeal has instructed a speedy trial will be held to settle the matter. Hopefully the slug will lose that and a load of cash.
Definitely not sure about Kelly and his availability but he is on a free! As for Marmardashvili if he comes he will want and expect to be No1, which will make Pope an unhappy camper! If it comes off it will be interesting to see who leaves or put up for sale!
It has been at least 10yrs since as you say "go down the road and save yourself a tenner" unless it's an end of season sale the shirts are the same price in every shop and have been for a long time.
I am unsure regarding Kelly as his record for injury is really quite bad, its not been spoken about but hes missed a lot of football over the last 4 seasons but I am sure they know what they are doing but I am a bit surprised but if hes a free maybe it makes sense but I have my doubts.
I hope this shirt issue is costing Ashley meany a sleepless night not about the money with the fat man it’s about getting one over the football club am so happy we are starting to see a little bit of pay back JD getting the selling rights over his dirt sports will be killing him big up Amanda and adidas 👏👏👏
Seriously though, why would ANY Newcastle United fan want to buy a shirt from 'that shop' ? Giving that man's shop money is the last thing we would want surely ..
Unpopular opinion but I think JD are an aweful company and I certainly won't be buying my toon top from JD I'll go to the club store I don't get why anyone gets a a shirt away from the club shop now we know the money is going back into the club and not into cashleys pockets
