It takes a lot for Shearer to say anything negative about the club. But when asked when his team will be back challenging at the top, he said: “It takes an incredible amount of money to get there.You’ve seen what Spurs have spent,they got it back with Gareth Bale money and Newcastle haven’t got anything like that. You have seen what Chelsea, City, Manchester United have spent, and Newcastle can’t compete with them... anymore, unfortunately.The aim now is to try to win a trophy, be it the FA Cup or the League Cup, and to stay in the Premier League. It might be a while before you see Newcastle challenging again for a top four place, which is a shame because the fans here deserve it.. I kept on listening to Alan Pardew saying he wanted some players and the club were confident of bringing some in. Reading between the lines, I expected a player or two to come in. I haven’t got a clue why they didn’t.” -the Journal
