It’s not all the doom and gloom that the gutter press (and Sky) try to make out. Four players in who look good, plus Gosling and Ben Arfa back from injury… well, Ben Arfa when he gets over the lastest. Of the six that left I don’t think Cambell and Kuqi or Routledge will be missed at all. Barton had one good season in 4 (albeit a very good season), but couldn’t even hold down a place in his preferred position – Cabaye looks good, which is probably another reason Barton has engineered the free transfer the way he has – I have no great like for the owner of the club (actually I despise him!), but lets not pretend Barton is looking out for anyone but himself or believe the badge kissing/wonderful fans platitudes. No, the Carroll money hasn’t been reinvested, and yes, the squad is still woefully thin, but it’s still a better squad that finished mid table last season. The main worry for me is the affect on team morale and if anyone else (apart from Barton and Enrique) leaves, as I really don’t expect any more to come in.

Newcastle are heading for the lower leagues.

The so-called “Experts” are always writing NUFC off. When we were relegated they said we’d “do a Leeds” but no, we strolled back to the Premiership. Then they said we’d struggle and no, we comfortably finished mid table. Now we’re supposed to be in trouble. Yeah – right!
There is a lot of pessimism around the club due to the players that have left but I don’t think we can be written off just yet. The least that experts and fans alike should do is wait until the transfer window closes and judge our squad then. I do expect us to sign at least a major striker and replacements for Enrique and Barton if they move on.
The players that we’ve brought in may be unknown to the myopic tabloid journalists who are writing us off, but ask any French fan and they’ll tell you we’ve signed great players. Not only that, but there are signs that our stated policy of signing young players and bringing them through is beginning to pay off. We have Ferguson, Tavernier, Vuckic, Sammy Ameobi all ready to add to the first team squad. We may have an unproven squad, but it’s brimming with your, skill and excitement.
There were hoots of derision this time last year when I predicted a mid table finish. Well this year I’m hoping for a Europa League spot. Scoff all you like but remember my words next May!

Typical unintelligent, London obsessed southern comment.

What a load of utter tosh (being polite) another southern journo not knowing the facts. We do need a striker as for the ones who have left/leaving, Nolan was past his best, Carroll £35m to much to turn down (& he’s trouble), Routledge not PL class, Barton 1 good season out of three & he’s BIG trouble, Enrique has wanted to leave since before Xmas last year head turned by money. We have brought in 3 good players & a couple of very decent youngsters not including home grown ones like Vuckic, Travenair, Ferguson & Sammy Ameobi, plus Gosling & Ben Arfa back from injury. All we need to do is buy 1 good striker and a good left back & I think we will be fine. Howay The Lads

Agree with all the comments below except the one about Europa league – a squad as thin as ours does not want to make it into that competition. As much as people go on about European football, the Europa league has become such a mickey mouse competition that it doesn’t really attract players any more. I’d rather consolidate mid-table again, continue to build the team with cheap, hungry talent, and then see if we can push on for the season after next.

I’m not saying that it’s good for us to be in the Europa (it has its advantages and disadvantages so you may well have a valid point about us being better off consolidating first). I’m talking about our potential league position and I honestly believe with a little bit of luck, a new striker and a fit Ben Arfa that we can finish above mid table, but that we aren’t (yet) good enough to challenge the top 5 or so. That sort of league position just happens to come with a Europa spot, whether we like it or not…

I don’t get it! What did he say that was sop wrong? The money has not been reinvested! You’ve lost quite a few of your better players and have picked up players that cost near nothing and  will be playing their first year in the P.L. That will be subsidised with unproven kids.

Don’t think Newcastle will be relegated but I do think they’ll do really well to finish where they finished last year.
