@EnglandExtra Are they still paying off debt? Surely the concerts are making them a fortune?

The irony is that Wembley is an expensive headache for the FA. They own it and barely break even despite having FA Cup semi finals and loads of concerts there. It makes commercial sense for the FA to sell Wembley (at the right price), but when they’ve tried there’s been uproar

Who else thinks the FA Cup semi-finals shouldn't be at Wembley? They should be played at neutral grounds like Old Trafford, Anfield, Villa Park, or St James' Park, leaving the final as a Wembley exclusive!

@EnglandExtra Except it’s not. Most recent account from 2022/2024 show Wembley making an operating profit of around £30m. It’s a major revenue generator for the English FA.

@Magpie24_7 Who owns Knox? They’re linked to a couple of lads who are part of PFL / URC which are in turn sponsored by PIF. Obviously coincidence…

"More to come." 🗣️ ​The KNOX Hydration deal is just the start. David Hopkinson is officially ramping up the commercial engine at Newcastle United. Here’s the state of play: ​1️⃣ Training Ground: A £6m/year deal for Benton Is now signed, sealed and delivered. Strategic move to bridge the gap before the Woolsington move. 2️⃣ Sela Status: Shirt sponsorship expires this summer. At £25m/year, we’re currently trailing the 'Big Six' (Man City £67m, Man Utd £60m). Expect a massive uplift or a new global partner soon. 3️⃣ Stadium Rights: The door is WIDE open. With Barca (£18m) and Bayern (£12m) setting the benchmark, naming rights at SJP are now a serious possibility under the new leadership. 🇸🇦 ​Non-PIF linked deals are the goal. The commercial 'sleeper' has finally woken up. #NUFC #Magpie247 #Newcastle

Dezenas de pescadores acabam perdendo partes do corpo por causa do peixe-lobo. Isso porque muita gente não imagina que, mesmo depois de "morto" e sem corpo, ele ainda é capaz de fazer isso.

🚨🗣️ 𝗡𝗘𝗪: Donald Trump wants the NFL to CHANGE its name so that 'soccer' is the only sport named 'football': "When you look at what is happening to football in the US, soccer in the US, we seem to never call it like that (football) because we have a little bit of a conflict with another thing that's called football." "But when you think about it, shouldn't it really be called 'football'? I mean, this is FOOTBALL! There's no question about it." "We have to COME UP with another name for the NFL. It really doesn't make sense when you think about it... This is really football."

@1962KINUFC @Magpie24_7 Hmmm not quite. Stamford Bridge is owned by a community supporters trust. It took Chelsea decades to get the ground back off housing developers and the trust means it can never happen again. Didn’t stop current owners selling the hotels but they can’t flog the family silver.

🏟️ Newcastle sell St James' Park... to themselves! The 72-year lease on St James’ Park has been sold to a subsidiary company (PZ Holdings Ltd) under the control of the club’s owners - PIF and the Reuben brothers - for £172.1m and leased back to the club for what appears to be 50 years. The transaction has generated a profit of £129m and was valued at fair market rate by the Premier League. Was this an accountancy ploy to beat PSR and avoid a points deduction? Simon Capper, Chief Financial Officer: "The motivation was very much to reorganise our property assets and get them into the correct legal boxes to allow us to go forward with our potential development, either at St James' Park or for a new stadium, and to facilitate that with financing and other similar items. There may be more similar transactions to come in the future, depending on what we end up doing. But the profit calculation that had to be done is then a consequence of the detail of the accounting rules that the Premier League require us to follow in doing any transaction with a company that is associated with us. So it does create a very significant accounting profit because of that." Does this give us a transfer war-chest.I hear you ask! "Because of the consequence of the profit calculated on the sale, it gives us a significant amount of PSR headroom. The ability to deploy that PSR headroom is very limited because we have to comply with UEFA rules and because the PSR regime is coming to an end, so that profit does not roll forward into squad cost. In a very narrow window, yes (it gives us more scope to spend on players), but we are very constrained in how we can use that." This is an accounting trick previously used by the likes of Chelsea. It has generated huge PSR headroom for the club, so why don't they use it? The problem is that PSR is changing to SCR, while UEFA's rules disallow such transactions, so going forward this does not really impact on the transfer/wages outlay. Why have they done it, then? The club say it is common practice to set up such a company to act as a means of holding funds for infrastructural work, such as a St James' renovation or new stadium. What they will not comment on either way is whether it helped them comply with PSR this year. When the club really should have sold St James' to themselves was in 2023/24, the season after which they were forced to sell Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh to get by PSR. So while this news may excite some, it does not release vast sums for summer investment and not doing it sooner cost us two brilliant young players! #NUFC #NUFCFans #Newcastle

@gw850 Pedro was Chelsea’s oldest signing last window - all of 23. They sign young players on competitive wages on long term deals to make a future transfer profit. Tonali doesn’t fit the business plan.

@SR4OnTour Agreed - reading the article he wasn’t formally invited and never visited the stadium despite being in Sunderland.
