Newcastle United miss out on massive opportunity - A year too early in the project

Newcastle United miss out on massive opportunity – A year too early in the projectJuts twenty days to go when the new owners will have their first anniversary, after Mike Ashley handed the keys over.

It was a project Mike Ashley had been working on for some time, annual dalliances with possible relegation, set to become the real thing once again, an impressive third relegation in thirteen Premier League seasons under Ashley. Along with others, I saw this season as a real opportunity. For other clubs and especially Newcastle United.

Sadly, for Newcastle United, I think we are set to miss out on a massive opportunity, it has come along a year too early in the project.I know I am stating the obvious but under Mike Ashley the squad had seriously stagnated, summed up by the fact that only Joe Willock was signed in the entire final year and two transfer windows under the former owner, whilst a ridiculous series of new contracts were handed out to existing players who should instead have been moved out and replaced.
