Wouldn't wish Ashley on any club. Apart from Sunderland. And Spurs actually. And Liverpool. Goes without saying obviously.

He's a brilliant businessman, everyone says so. He's also the saviour of the high street, just ask any Debenham's (ex) employee. He's great.

Exactly, he's an utter shithouse. There's only 1 reason he came out with that bollocks and that's purely for the benefit of other chairmen who are thinking of sacking their current boss. He's disassociating himself from the horrendous job he's currently nearly close to finishing up here with the sole intention of picking up another gig somewhere else in the next couple of months. Seeing footage of him struggling with a big cardboard box full of his personal shit and hastily forcing it in the back of his motor before driving off into the complete abyss would be the ultimate.

New owners will want nothing negative from the crowd on their big day, they know Bruce is about as unpopular as it's possible to get and he'll be fucked off in the next 24-48 hours imo. Mentioned it earlier I think it'll be Jones for the time being until they get the bloke they want, not bothered how long it takes them either. Appointing the right man in the dugout is probably their biggest decision they'll have to make in the first 18 months of their tenure. Absolutely vital they take their time and get it right. Jones will do for now purely because he's not Steve Bruce.

Not sure when his sacking will take place but it'll be meticulous, let me tell you.

He's a handful of dogshit. Needs dealing with immediately, like today. Not even sure why he's still here tbh.

Exactly. Nailed it

I'd absolutely love to contact Chelsea and ask the about the availability of Havertz or Pulisic. Not even with the intention of signing them (as they'd never sell them) but just to rattle their cages and let them know we're after good young players and we're looking at their players. Same for Greenwood at Man U, Bellingham at Dortmund or Foden at City. Just ask the question and let them know that if the haggling can be done then the player will be bought. If it comes to nothing then fair enough. Just want Newcastle to get it's elbows out and start making it's new found presence felt . Yeah, we're here now and we're looking at your best players, deal with the cunt. We want your best players and can offer them more than you're paying them, what are you going to do about it?

At this precise moment in time it's not about who it is, it's about who it isn't. Binning Bruce and replacing him with a packet of Frazzles would lift the fans and players for the Spurs game. Get the cunt out asap and ride the wave for a month until you decide who actually wants it and take it from there.

Levy and Spurs are clearly terrified. Honestly think they thought they had the PL in their back pocket and could simply pick up the phone and dictate policy and influence decisions. They were sitting there smugly just waiting for the official rejection of the takeover and thought they could shake off the ESL disgrace they were completely complicit in and simply rejoin the elite as they've recently become accustomed to. Then the lawyers had their say in court last week and the situation changed irrecoverably imo (don't know for sure). Firmly believe the PL have conducted a 100% climbdown as a result of what had been heard and told PIF to settle the piracy and it would be waved through immediately which is exactly what happened. The imagined power and influence of the so called Big 6 is essentially null and void when compared to the potential exposure of some of the PL dealing. Passing the takeover was the lesser of 2 evils. Noses firmly out of joint in North London and elsewhere. The other clubs aren't pissed off it's been passed, they're fucking apoplectic they never had another chance to throw another stick in the wheel as has been mentioned by others. The tables have been turned and it's absolutely fucking glorious. The bile and hatred from others is fuelling me, bring the cunt on.

Hippercritikkle marra.

Expect this lot to get even worse over the next few hours as the beers start flowing tonight. Peak RTG approaching

Must admit that the whole joy/relief/positivity in feeling is split between 70‰ Ashley going and 30‰ Saudis coming in. It's not all about what's about to happen in the future, it's what we're leaving behind, the complete lack of ambition, the neglect of the foundations of the club, the refusal to invest in the training facilities, the refusal to engage with the fans, the refusal to clean the stadium, the refusal to even consider the views and opinions the fans at they did as they fucking pleased. Getting shot of Ashley is miles better than gaining the new owners, they could have been any fuckers tbh. Ashley was the millstone around the neck of this club. Cutting that free was the success

No sympathy, no second chances, his entire managerial record is utterly abysmal, his cv is littered with failure. Pay him off and move on, it's a solid investment. Whatever it takes, it'll be the best use of their cash they could possibly make.

Amazing to think of how many new accounts are going to disappear in the blink of an eye over the next few months/years

New manager immediately. It's the most important and most urgent appointment they need to make. Other things can wait a few weeks or months. Change in the dugout is the only decision that matters right now.

He's got a massive inferiority complex fuelled by the knowledge he actually knows he's not anywhere close to being good enough. He knows he's past it, he knows his methods of working are ancient and inadequate and he also knows he's too ignorant to change how he does things. He's also painfully aware that this is his last big job and he's staring down the twin barrels of redundancy and retirement now he, and his record, are actually being held to account. He's playing any and every card he's still got left in order to preserve his tattered reputation in the game, just willing to say and do anything for another job, somewhere, anywhere... Boot this tired, old, pernicious, slimey cunt out tomorrow please, it'll be the best money you ever spend on this club.

No redeeming qualities whatsoever. An absolute piece of shit, horrific at his job for over 20 years and now plays the sympathy card as he now has owners who will actually hold him to account and sack him immediately due to his incompetence. Hope I never see or hear from the rancid fucking shithouse ever again.

Feels like the end of Return of the Jedi right now. Been so negative about pretty much everything about the club for so long that I'm finding it difficult to flick that switch back on again if I'm being honest. Sure I'll manage though

You fucking dancers. Hard to take in right now, don't even know where to start

As long as they bin the tedious, inadequate, gormless two-faced cunt currently in charge I couldn't give too much of a fuck tbh. What's the worst that could happen? We lose every week? Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Absolutely love the fact Wulbert is researching the past 2 years of Andorran yellow cards on the night we're about to become one of the most wealthy clubs on the planet

Needs to be done within the first minute of getting the keys. Don't bother getting a cuppa or logging on, don't even bother sitting down at the desk and putting your lunch in the fridge. Just walk directly into his office and sack the hideous cunt immediately. Security to frog-march the ugly wanker off the premises and fumigate his (old) office.

Spot on I'll need to remind myself in the next few months that even if we play poorly or lose at least there is a purpose again, at least there is a determination to push the club forward even if there are rubbish results every other weekend. It'll be nice just to care again, to actually give a fuck about the match again. Fuck I've missed that Sounds daft but I genuinely don't know how I'll react if we start being good and finishing higher and higher, my eyes naturally sink to the bottom of the table these days, it'll be nice to be able to look at the top half again.

I don't even want to see this cunt again. Just slobber off to Portugal quietly and never come back, take the cash and disappear into obscurity
