Mike Ashley is the tightest owner in the league, do you think he's going to pay anyone £100k a week? Nevermind the transfer fee. He's that tight, they had a wage bill of almost £80M in the Championship ! Ashley isn't liked by the Geordies because he won't fund a yearly deficit in the Premier League - and he's quite right. We don't expect Dean Hoyle to fund the club whilst we're in the Premier League - most of us expected him to take back some of the £50M he's already invested. So why should Newcastle fans expect any different from Mike ashley. Absolutely right. If what Ashley’s saying is correct that Rafa has access to any profit they make then Newcastle fans are in dreamland. Certainly not helped either by the likes of Shearer condemning him publicly. Their wage bill is way higher than ours and around the mid table level of the Premier League so not such a miracle they finished there last season. in reality it’s the wage bill that counts. Not the transfer fees.

Not the transfer fees. Yes, it is widely out there that there wage bill for 16/17 promotion was £112Million. Seeing as the premier give £100million at the beginning of the season, that is why they have to sell before they buy. As others have said above its all about the wages rather than the transfer fees.

Not the transfer fees. Same with West Ham. There fans expect to much. Blaming the new stadium and owners for ripping the heart out the club. You wouldn’t of heard a peep from them if they were competing for a European place in a Burnley position all season. They’ve brought in a proven manager and spent a lot pre season so they’ve shut up but if they are down near the bottom again the protests will be out in full flow.

Makes a change from him normally trousering the cash... Sad state of affairs for retail in the UK just now though, remember going into Woolworths all them yrs ago as they collapsed & it was bloody awful for the staff, folk like vultures in there - similar thing happened with BHS as well. HoF used to be quite a respectable brand but it's now in and amongst a High St industry that's pretty much knackered. I expect there'll be a gradual decline until we're faced with the supposedly better companies surviving and once they know their competition is largely gone, they'll make us poor buggers pay for it...

Not only is Mike Ashley stumping up some cash for HoF, but to get this thread back onto its main topic, it would appear that Limbombe may also be costing him a pretty penny as well as reports are pointing towards him going to Newcastle.

If he goes to Newcastle sounds like we might get their unwanted players ?

Sent from my SM-G920F using proboards We must be bringing in a couple of overseas players or I see no point at all letting Quaner & Heff leave. Both decent squad members. The fact they are not in Austria would strongly suggest they are not in the plans. We're up to the 17 limit with them. I would not be at all surprised to see Limbombe signing.

We were linked with Thiago Mendes from Lille but that has gone quiet. I wonder if there has been any confusion between the players with the journos.

Town being interested in both forwards Adama Traore and Adama Diakhaby is probably another example.

Genuine question as I have no idea how this works. Who picks up the agents fees? Clubs have agreed, but player and agent not happy. So who pays for the time spent negotiating this deal if it falls through as football works in a wonderess way. Anybody? you all seem to know every detail about everything, but when a genuine question is asked, ZERO! ZILTCH! in the knows my arse!

Anybody? you all seem to know every detail about everything, but when a genuine question is asked, ZERO! ZILTCH! in the knows my arse! It depends I think. Some clubs pay the agent a fee via an increased signing on bonus for the player. Some pay the agent for brokering the player’s side of the deal. Some clubs retain an agent to sell players. These agents offer them around to get them off the selling club’s books. The selling club will pay them for that.

I wonder if he's waiting for the inevitable transfer deadline day auction?
No way we'll get involved in an auction for him surely?

Surely that's the risk that agents take - if they can't conclude the deal and it's down to their doing why should either of them be paid? It's no different to any transaction falling through and unless there are clauses for recovery of costs/timing against the party who trashes the deal it's a tough shit scenario.. If anything they should be charged by both clubs for time wasting...

I wonder if we are waiting to ship out Heff or Big Coll before signing him? If we sign him then we can't register one of Heff or Big Coll which will devalue you them, just seems strange we've been linked with him since March

Maybe an announcement today to celebrate Yorkshire day...👀

I read on Twitter, so take it for what it is, Limbombé was after 120k/w 😲 outrageous if true. Reminds me of the article that otium posted a few days back about agents, specifically the bit about the young player who was advised badly by an agent who demanded unrealistic wages.

He's been linked with Newcastle long enough now for the usual rumour sites to say he's failed to agree terms with them.
