Enjoy talking about the 'most important of the least important' things in life.

We’re delighted to announce the appointment of Matthias Jaissle as Newcastle United head coach. Widely recognised as one of Europe’s leading young coaches, the 38-year-old German arrives on Tyneside following remarkable success with both Red Bull Salzburg and Al-Ahli. Welcome, Matthias! 🖤🤍

I get all the cynicism about 2030. We ain't going to be winning titles. Equally, we ain't going to be winning titles with Gordon, Bruno, Tonali in 2030. The whole squad needs to lift up two notches. Bamba, Steur etc could be World Class in 4 years. Let's see how it plays out! #nufc

While we're all mourning Bruno let's remember he demanded a RC in his contract previously and was devastated when City didn't use it. He's always had one eye on the exit door. We move on #nufc

Given the time it takes Bruno to get up to speed at the start of seasons, especially after a break this close to the season. I'm justified in saying he's 29 as he will be by the time he's playing 😂 #nufc

Interesting update! The media said he was arriving late yesterday. This plane got into Sardinia around 10ish. Could Bruno be in meetings with the hierarchy like Isak was? Or was he this morning. Who knows but the Chairman is certainly nearby!#nufc

If we don’t see and photos of Bruno in La Manga, I’m still not convinced he’s there. My guess is he’s in Olbia. JCC FA8X was chartered Rio de Janeiro to Olbia yesterday, while on Friday GLF6 M-IIII used by our chairman, flew Nice to Olbia and has been there ever since… #NUFC

So folks. We haven't blown any budget. Sadly we're tightly governed by Football Earnings Rule (FER). The Gordon and Tonali money has meant we are still compliant and have spent 135m (and more with agent fees etc). We need another sale to allow us to get 2-4 new players #nufc

RW looks like a great operator, but if we’ve blown the budget without signing at least one fullback that’s pure neglect. The club knew for months that Trippier and Krafth were done.

FWIW I think given we have a new manager the time is right to sell Bruno. There is big risk attached BUT without this money the summer grinds to a holt as I think we've maxed out our available budget ( FER). So selling Bruno and releasing 60+m profit (80m deal) would release 150m spending #nufc

Now we know why they wanted to delay the announcement of the manager. Let this nonsense play out, people will be tired of it by mid afternoon then a teatime lift off. Control the narrative! #nufc

With the usual caveats about author and copium at a plenty. I can't help but get enthused about things folk. RW is coming across as the real deal. As mentioned the Women have had a brilliant summer. Club seems aligned. Let's crack on. #nufc www.teamtalk.com/newcastle-un...

⚫️⚪️ This is what Newcastle owners PIF REALLY think of Eddie Howe's successor, Matthias Jaissle #NUFC

Eddie Howe is out. So is Newcastle United's first post-takeover era Big sales dominate but buying shift is stark. £110m on under-21s already. Only two English clubs have ever spent more in one season on that group Numbers, reasons here: @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/748...

Newcastle’s transfer strategy has shifted: What does it say about PIF and where does it leave the club? (Gift Article)

A range of internal and external factors have caused the club's owners to turn off the spending taps on Tyneside

This is an absolutely huge fee for a soon to be 29 year old. Club learning lessons. If players want to go then get big fees. Apparently Arsenal started around 50m. I'd expect a decent splurge now as this money isn't actually needed to balance the books #nufc

Any Newcastle fan looking for positivity? Take a look at the Lasses' signings, nearly a whole new starting XI. Plenty of WSL and WSL2 experience. They're not taking this lightly. Also, before anyone starts moaning, they wear our badge and shirt. Howay the Lasses and Lads #nuwfc #nufc
