Mike Ashley wants a puppet who will take the flack for Newcastle being, in Premier League terms, a selling Club. Ashley really isn't bothered how successful Newcastle are as long as they don't go down. And he isn't prepared to dip into his pocket to take the Club to the next level.
So, is that how RD sees the Club and why our two previous managers couldn't work with him?
So what happens if say Derby or Ipswich come knocking for say Gudmundsson in January? How convinced are we that RD wouldn't sell and BP wouldn't just accept it? And what percentage of that money would be spent on reinforcements? And by reinforcements I don't mean players who have struggled to hold down a regular place in the Turkish third division or so injury prone lasting the warm up is a big ask.

So many questions for AP and SP. Will KM or RD answer any of these? Or will MA just open a new SD at QPR?
That seems to balance both the Force and the Dark side satisfactorily :-)
we could be blackpool though so that would make BP is to RD as LC is to KO ...admittedly LC is a less constant factor but i dont have the maths to express that though
This transfer window will demonstrate just how much influence BP has on his squad.
