Just heard on radio 5 about newcastles wage bill 74 million pounds a year! Sky income last term 43m Likely TV income next term 11.2m parachute, 3m TV..so 14m 29 million pounds shortfall assuming other turnover gives them break even. There's probably gonna be a fire sale so it will be a test of saint shearers metal to stay. I hope he does missen because I dont think he's got a clue and without a huge backroom staff he'd be shagged.
