Just thinking about some of the comments from pundits I have read along the lines of "it will take 4 or 5 years of investment for Newcastle to challenge at the top end of the league".
You know I am not sure about that. As it stands we haven't got anyone who can score goals in ruthless fashion and a manager who, in my humble opinion, is tactically inept. That said we are 13 points off 4th place having lost 12 games and drawn 8. Surely if we just had a decent striker we would have won 4 or 5 of the drawn games and drawn 2 or 3 of the lost games?
I remember when we got stuffed by Leicester (fucking Leicester!). We made them look like Barcelona but I remember thinking if we had Vardy and a decent manager we would be just as good.
Me I reckon 2 or 3 world class players and a top manager (please not Rafa) and we should be challenging around the top 4 next season. 2 or 3 more players and..............dare to dream.
Of course the takeover could still go tits up. Lets hope not.
