According to various sources it appears Newcastle have some kind of wage cap.
I don't know if it's true or not but regardless of that, what I'd like to know is, if it's reported to be £70,000 a week, would you be in favour of it or would you expect it to be broken in order to get a player signed?

The reason I'm asking this is, it seems that Watford baulked at Kieran Gibbs' demands for £80,000 a week and we appeared to baulk at something similar with Lucas Perez and Gibbs.

Obviously I don't know how much truth is in it all but would it be in our interests to break a wage cap
for any player, let alone the two mentioned, assuming we do have one in place?

My personal opinion would be to stick to a wage cap if we do have one, because it at least gives us a fighting chance of keeping mercenaries at bay but the flip side to that is in keeping higher quality away.

If we had a Sheikh as owner I wouldn't care less to be fair, but seeing as we are being run in house then it appears to be extremely logical to cap the wages.

What does anyone think?
