Haha I thought you did good there mate, some good points, very good. Those two hosts are numpties tbh " You sound American!". Err, no he doesnt.

Is anyone else getting serious brain pain after reading all this bluster about take overs and what not? I think a labotomy is the order of the day for me. Anyone else?

The mental bloke Peter Lee off the radio.

We have got more tickets for West Ham away (2245) than we have for Everton away (1,819). WTF is up with that?, for years now we have been taking a paltry allocation at Everton. Anyone know why?

That name just sounds dodgy as fuck. Right up our street and doomed to failure.

Not sure this has been posted yet but wow, what an attack: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/football/premier_league/newcastle/article4761813.ece

He was class on saturday. Really looked like he cared. If he goes, we WONT get anyone better than him its as simple as that, thats why we should pull out all the stops to keep him.

To be fair the article did state that they were eventually let in by some big chief security guy and not simply told to fuck off home.

I have mixed feelings about this after reading the statement. If only he released this statement weeks ago all this could have been avoided. Newcastle fans NEED to know what is going on at their club and the vision for it. Ashley's total silence on all things Newcastle in recent weeks and months was the biggest contributing factor in this shambolic episode I feel. I think he is a decent man, with good intentions so seeing him go if and when he does will be tinged with a little bit of sadness for me because of what might have been.

I can see a thrashing on the cards for us here tbh.

Cant be arsed to trawl through this entire thread so dont know if it has been mentioned but WTF were hull thinking believing they could come here and wear an all GREY strip when we play in black and white??? They should have been in their home strip ffs. Someone should be sacked tbh.

Yes, but the banner just keeps what the board would like to sweep under the carpet right in everybodies attention. Believe me, If we didnt protest, they'd think it is acceptable to treat us like this and continue to do so. Thats what protests achieve. Wouldn't it have been as effective if done before/after the game? You know the SSN cameras will be there, you know there'll be chanting outside the stadium, you know the papers are going to write about it tomorrow. It would have been in everybody's attention with or without the banner but the crowd contributed to our slow start to the second half because their attention was on something else, which is why I thought it was unnecessary. Yeah but these are testing times and these things happen. I agree that the parading of the banner took the focus off the game for 5 minutes but they obviously did it to get maximum exposure which is understandable and god help us if the players are shattered by a banner not even directed at them.

I agree, the support was as good as can be expected today, if not better. It was certainly no disgrace. I applauded the banner. Too fucking right.

Just seen the highlights of this. Did anyone else hear Shearer shout "I'll take you for a drink on Thursday" when Craig David was being interveiwed?

Apparently England is the only country in the world where highlights of the national teams games are not available on terrestrial TV or for free. How true that is I do not know. One thing I do know though, is that it is a disgrace of a situation.

Listen, forget all the bluster, there ARE loads of mega rich people out there looking to buy clubs and we will be top or near as damn it on most of their lists. The current crisis can do nothing but stir them up to make their move. Lets see what the next 6 months bring eh?

The only way back that I can see for Ashley now is if somehow we go on a good run between now and January and he manages to hang on to the club untill then and then invests heavily with two or three £8 million+ signings in the transfer window. What has happened at Man City has had a huge factor on how we fans (me included) have viewed this whole situation imo.

Chanting against the board during the match should be considered.

Get the cunt oot.

Really I am not that arsed about Keegan being re-instated, I just wasnt Ashley out of the club and a mega rich owner in charge who is going to make us challenge for stuff. Plus, people are forgetting ONE HUGE FACTOR HERE>>>>>>>>>>>>. If Ambani takes over the Balti pies at the match will be exceptional, plus he might even bring in Madras/Vindaloo ones aswell.

It is up to the fans to demonstrate and protest so much at the Hull game and others after it if need be to leave no doubt in Ashley's mind that he HAS to sell up. We as fans have a huge part to play in this if we really want it.

Lets be honest. The Newcastle United way is to continually fuck everything up and if we dont get some people in who are ready to seriously invest in the team then we are going to be posting on this forum in 10 or 15 years time and we will still have won fuck all and probably be languishing in mid table mediocrity or worse. At least this guy will give us a fighting chance of being the best.

Yeah, but Hull have sold their allocation of 3,000 and are planning to buy thousands of tickets in the home areas. Thay could probably bring 6-7,000 for this one I reckon.
