Forest Green Rovers have appointed *a woman* as caretaker manager after sacking Duncan Ferguson – and the ‘PR stunt’ rankles with one Newcastle reporter...
It takes a lot to drag Luke Edwards away from the tireless pastime of thanking his Saudi overlords as he wipes away the latest crumbs of news they spoon-feed him about Newcastle .
‘They have spent around £250 million on new players in the three transfer windows combined, but are planning to sign at least four elite players to boost manager Eddie Howe’s squad ahead of their return to European football. It will not be cheap and although sources have been careful not to give an exact figure for their budget, Telegraph Sport can disclose how they intend to navigate their way through FFP rules,’ he wrote on April 18.
Four “elite players”. FFP won’t be a problem. Biggest window under Saudi Arabian ownership yet. Please, Yasir Al-Rumayyan sir, can I have some more? By the literal next day, Edwards was exclusively reporting that the Magpies were ‘in advanced talks’ over Tino Livramento, presumably having paused and reflected for an hour or so.
