It will be no where near 30million. unless big players are sold

Also Sam not going to blow huge amount of money on flops he only buys hard working players at the right price. He also said no big names
 
old fireman sam has got off to a good start getting rid of 5 players already.

don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out shamble hahaha
 
Big sam will go out and get a load of solid jourmey men and mold them into an aggressive overly physical long ball team, then when ever anyone questions this he will point to one of his ageing pro's and say how could you call so and so a proponent of long ball football while pretending this excuses the rest of the thugs.

If your really lucky you'll have a midfield pairing of Butt and Nolan next season and be blinded by the footballing feast as they hoof the ball at the head of kevin Davies and Michael Owen who will obviously be wearing his new stilts!

Shame on Allerdyce for not rolling over and letting the big 4 steam roller his team every week.

I despair sometimes.
 
Looks like where stream rolling and stealing Bolten backroom staff. 1 on a free and 1 where going to have to pay for
 
One Season to make me proudMay 27 2007

By Neil Farrington, The Sunday Sun

Sam Allardyce will have just one season to prove he is the man to realise Mike Ashley's £400 million dream of turning Newcastle into a world footballing superpower.

That is the figure that Ashley has earmarked for his United revolution as he expects to convince chairman Freddy Shepherd to sell his stake in the club when they meet this week.

In anticipation of pushing through a takeover worth £133 million, Ashley - through his PR advisors - has assured the newly-appointed Allardyce that his job is safe.

But other sources close to the publicity-shy billionaire (right) last night revealed that he is yet to be convinced that Allardyce can establish Newcastle as one of the biggest clubs on the planet.

The Sunday Sun has been told of the big-money, five-year path to greatness which Ashley has mapped out for the Magpies.


The sports retail tycoon has budgeted an incredible £270 MILLION for winning the Premiership within three years and challenging for the Champions League within five years.


And although Allardyce will be given £45 million to spend this summer, he will be expected to push for Champions League qualification next season . . .


Or Ashley is prepared to follow Roman Abramovich's lead by parting company with Allardyce - as Chelsea's sugar-daddy did with Claudio Ranieri - after one season.


"Mike has huge respect for what Sam Allardyce achieved with limited resources at Bolton, but I can't stress enough just how big he hopes - and expects - Newcastle to become," a source told the Sunday Sun.


"Is Allardyce capable of taking the club not just up to the next level but into a whole different ballpark? That's yet to be seen.


"Of course, Allardyce will have the chance to prove himself. But he won't be allowed to hang around doing it. Mike wants big progress, fast."


Meanwhile, Shepherd - still in hospital yesterday recovering from pneumonia and a collapsed lung - is widely thought to be ready to accept the offer of 100p per share which persuaded the Halls to sell Ashley their 41.6 per cent share of United.


But the Sunday Sun has learned just how easily the Newcastle chairman could launch a rival bid for the club.


With his current 29.8 per cent stake, Shepherd is already within touching distance of the 30 per cent threshold which would oblige him to make an offer to buy all other shares.


And I understand he can count on being able to purchase low-key ally Len Hatton's 3.88 per cent stake at any time.


If Shepherd then approached United's institutional investors - who own around 22 per cent of the club - with an offer in excess of 100p per share, he would almost boost his holding to well over 50 per cent and leave Ashley himself with little choice but to sell up.


However, the timing of Ashley's purchase of the Hall family's 41.6 per cent stake - coinciding with a health scare serious enough to have left those around Shepherd badly shaken - has left the chairman seemingly poorly equipped to resist the newcomer's assault.

One year to prove himself?

With a load of substandard , underperforming wastes of space still tied to long term lucrative contracts it will be hard to make much progress in a year.

Stability is what the club badly needs and sending out a message like this is going to help nobody , including himself.


I cant see where Shepherd will get the money from for a buyout , if he could get it why hasnt he done it earlier?
He has already mortgaged the club to the hilt to fund his poorly appointed managers.

His days are numbered.
 
They have probably exagerated it a bit.

TBH, European football should be our realistic target for next season, basically a top 7 finish.

Depending on his budget of course! :)

realistic - no? in theory perhaps but when you think there is spurs, everton, bolton, pompey, villa, blackburn in that mix those clubs are all in better shape. they have structure and HUNGER.


newcastle have always had ability but sometimes they get to good players, which feel they are above the club. i think newcastle would do well to buy the young hungry team players, especially trying out the one or two good players from the championship - nugent? barnes? baines from wigan also (prem i know)....

why treat n'zogbia like they have when he could be the future of the club.

A man walked into a very high-tech bar. As he sat down on a stool he noticed that the bartender was a robot. The robot clicked to attention and asked, "Sir, what will you have?"

The man thought a moment then replied? "A martini please."

The robot clicked a couple of times and mixed the best martini the man had ever had.

The robot then asked, "Sir, what is your IQ?" The man answered "Oh, about 164."

The robot then proceeded to discuss the 'theory of relativity', inter-stellar space travel', the latest medical breakthroughs, etc...

The man was most impressed. He left the bar but thought he would try a different tact. He returned and took a seat. Again the robot clicked and asked what he would have? "A martini please."

Again it was superb.? The robot again asked "What is your IQ sir?"

This time the man answered , "Oh about 100". So the robot started discussing Top Gear, the latest football scores, and the current issue of nuts magazine.

The guy had to try it one more time. So he left, returned and took a stool.... Again a martini, and the question, "What is your IQ?" This time the man drawled out " Uh..... bout 50".

The robot clicked then leaned close and very slowly asked, "A-r-e...
y-o-u-r...
p-e-o-p-l-e...
h-a-p-p-y...
w-i-t-h...
F-a-t...
S-a-m ...
A-l-l-a-r-d-y-c-e??
