Newcastle will be entering the chase for Jones once Bruno to Arsenal is done. Let’s hope we can get 40mil at least.
03 Aug 2026 18:56:56
Anything above 15mil is a bonus.

I complained about the lowball offers for Jones previously, but given the way things are, I'd accept 40 Jaffa Cakes just to get the ball rolling.
03 Aug 2026 19:13:30
@Chewy,
I believe there are twelve Jaffa Cakes in a pack, so I'm afraid it's likely to be only 36 on offer. :-D

On another note, I saw Arne Slot in Amnesia-Ibiza and he has no idea he's even been sacked.
03 Aug 2026 19:29:42
Good one, LFC8. Made me chuckle.
03 Aug 2026 19:30:02
For £40 million I'll drive him up to Newcastle myself.
03 Aug 2026 19:35:56
I'll take the other 4 in addons, Clay.
03 Aug 2026 19:36:01
LFC8, last time I went to Amnesia I saw a lad talking to himself in a mirror. It took him a good 15 mins until he realised. Haha.

Unfortunately the source for this is a chicken frying chap from Leicester, so don't get too excited. For the record I'd accept 24 cans of Paulaner, a decent lamb madras and a bag of Fredos for Jones. And even that feels overpriced.
03 Aug 2026 20:05:25
I'll top up the toll tag Irish. ?

I frequented Ku, back in the 80s, which later became Privilege.

We should just take the £30 million interest they have offered. He's in the last year of his contract.
03 Aug 2026 20:58:10
He's not worth Jaffa Cakes, I'll give 20 dodgy Richmonds and a Titan Bar.
03 Aug 2026 21:53:45
What's with the consensus change in Jones? He's a quality player, not far removed from the likes of Anderson and Rogers that have just gone for 100m each. Personally, think we'll be getting robbed at anything less than 50.
03 Aug 2026 22:09:47
Fatwallet, that is a superb low-ball offer. Even Katie Price would struggle to turn that down!
And Viktor, Freddos are worth their weight in gold. Cannot believe you have massively overvalued Jones' worth.
03 Aug 2026 22:14:18
What chase for Jones. Geriatric egg and spoon race.
03 Aug 2026 22:56:51
He's really not a quality player in that league. I think £30-35m overseas (where he isn't HG) or £40m to Newcastle (got to throw them a bone!) is reasonable.
Voldemort did OK in Newcastle, so there is a precedent!
