Super Cooper 0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Edit: BTW, you only make serious money from the CL ... and even that is "peanuts" compared to what Newcastle gets from their Sky deals et al ... right now. But Newcastles cost base will be 100 times that of ours probably. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Newcastle undoubtedly. And you know it mate!! We are miles, years, off European football. Two years mate, Rangers are already planning for what they will do instead of touring the States in the summer of 2016 when we have to start in July in the ELQ1 Keep the faith! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Straight after ... Man City, ManU, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, probably even Everton, Swansea, Tottenham and Southampton! Plus a little help from UEFA re an utterly warped setup. Edit: BTW, you only make serious money from the CL ... and even that is "peanuts" compared to what Newcastle gets from their Sky deals et al ... right now. Man U ? This season ? Newcastle could finish above them with the formation LVG is deploying. Southampton ? That squad has lost it's core, its best players - they will be on the slide. Tottenham ? Likewise, they may have got a decent manager but the squad isn't that great. Newcastle may not get into Europe - but with the current plight of both teams I would say Newcastle before us any day of the week. Remember, we aren't strong enough to defeat Dundee Utd, ICT, Motherwell or Celtic right now - and that is just for starters..... If you think we are closer to achieving Euro football than Newcastle then I applaud your optimism - I just don't happen to share it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see the uppers are working BH. Are you in the "we have the squad capable of getting into Europe" camp ? Or have you suddenly won the Euro Lottery and are funding the tens of millions of quid we need invested in our squad to be even remotely close to being a contender for a European spot ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, we heard about the return to The Promised Land earlier on today. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a difference that would make to everyone's mood for a few minutes eh! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
neutralscot 0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Though currently I don't think you'd make the group stages of any euro competition. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
