  1. The results he's talking about getting are L L L D L, "which is good". He's fucking shameless.
  2. Bit of exaggerating, no? A shithouse of a professional, yes. But as a human being? I haven't heard anything... I've never liked him tbh. I think he's a devious and selfish cunt, he refuses to accept responsibility and would throw anyone under the bus to save himself. He's banging on about showing loyalty (Longstaff) but he's shown no loyalty throughout his managerial career, he's walked out when it's suited him (fair enough in some cases but to call others out when he's done it for 20 years takes the piss). No problem with people who fall for the canny old bloke persona he attempts to put across but it's not for me. He's an absolute arsehole imo All of that is shit professionalism, it doesn't mean that on a personal basis, he'd be like that. And to some people I'm sure he's a 'canny bloke' (Amazing that Shearer is able to spot a cunt in someone like Owen but not in Bruce, eh?). And for the record, I don't think he's a 'canny bloke' or a 'shithouse of a human being'. I see it differently but fair enough

  4. He's a big fan of Fray Bentos too. Loves a tinned pie. ................................................... The Tempest
  5. A shithouse of a manager and a shithouse of a human being. Can't see any redeeming qualities to him, just bin the sackless cunt ffs
  6. They should stay pending, just stay in contact with them as much as possible, record and log every contact as well. Print the live chats, do everything you can to keep any evidence, just in case you need it. When you get your new passport, if they refuse to pay out then, the next move would usually be to http://www.ibas-uk.com/ Imo you don't have too much to worry about, just get your passport and everything should be OK. Thing is, I don't really want to delay the passport of someone who really needs it just to jump through hoops for these dicks. When i go to apply it says Book a holiday with the winnings
  7. No idea what mood the Liverpool players will be in. Could be a fairly tight game if they're still hungover/not that arsed about it. If they want to go out with a bang then they'll go mental and get about 7 if they fancy it.

    Transfer rumours

    Factor in the few million quid transfer fee and signing on fee too. He's the exact signing we shouldn't be making.
  9. St Etienne pulling out a genuine reducer. Scenes that everyone no-one wants to see.

    Sunderland

    Can’t afford to be tew chewsy though
  11. Yep that's pretty much what I was thinking
  12. Fuck it, let's knock this one on the head. Despair and depression lay here: https://www.newcastle-online.org/forum/index.php?topic=104288.0
  13. And on it rumbles... Previous thread: https://www.newcastle-online.org/forum/index.php?topic=104153.0 --------------------------------------- 1st July NUFC Statement Discussion from pg 961 https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/latest-news/club-statement-010721/ The Club continues to receive requests for updates on its current arbitration claim against the Premier League (‘EPL’) considering the lawfulness of the EPL’s decisions regarding the proposed takeover of the Club involving the PIF. Unfortunately, the Club is unable to make any comment about the arbitration. The EPL Rules provide the entire arbitration process is confidential. However, both parties can agree for it to be in public. The Club believes it should be. The issues at stake, including the lawfulness of the EPL’s decision making process and the widely publicised alleged influence of the EPL’s commercial partners on the EPL’s decisions, are of far wider interest to other football clubs, fans and the public in general. The recent attempted breakaway by some EPL clubs - and the reaction of the government and public to it - has again highlighted the need for transparency and fairness in football governance. Gone are the days when important decisions that affect clubs and their fans should be made secretly, behind closed doors and away from the public eye. The Club has nothing to hide with respect to the arbitration and invites the EPL to agree that it should no longer be held behind closed doors. If the EPL has acted lawfully and properly, it should have no reason to be afraid of the public spotlight. To date the EPL has strongly resisted any public scrutiny of its decision-making process. It tried, and failed, to prevent the High Court’s judgment about elements of the arbitration being published last February. It is currently attempting to prevent the competition courts considering a claim by the Club’s sellers from taking place in public, arguing that too should be held in confidential arbitration. So the Club has invited the EPL to agree - as the claim raises such important issues of sports governance, transparency and openness - that it should be held in public. The Club is prepared for every stage of the process to be in public: the public should be able to see the parties’ evidence and arguments as well as the full decision of the Tribunal when it is made. The government quite rightly threatened to intervene in reaction to the proposed breakaway from the EPL earlier this year, and the reaction of football fans and the wider public was instrumental in stopping the emergence of the European Super League (ESL). If the EPL continues to insist that the Club’s claim must be determined behind closed doors, the Club asks that MPs, the government, the media and the general public call on the EPL to finally accept public scrutiny of its decision-making process. --------------------------------------- 4th July Staveley writes to Tracey Crouch Discussion from pg 975 --------------------------------------- 5th July Tracey Crouch responds to Staveley's letter Discussion from pg 980 https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-takeover-staveley-tracey-crouch-20972873.amp --------------------------------------- 5th July Following submissions of evidence by both the Premier League and St James' Holdings in CAT jurisdiction case, the PL is given a further seven days to 'file and serve evidence'. https://www.catribunal.org.uk/cases/14025721-st-james-holdings-limited --------------------------------------- 5th July Staveley speaks with SSN Discussion from pg 986 https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12349465/newcastle-takeover-amanda-staveley-wants-uk-government-and-premier-league-to-make-arbitration-transparent?s=09 --------------------------------------- 6th July Government responds to Staveley's letter to Dowden Discussion from pg 991 --------------------------------------- July 7th Staveley speaks to ITV Discussion from pg 994 https://www.itv.com/news/tyne-tees/2021-07-07/amanda-staveley-tells-itv-tyne-tees-shes-committed-to-nufc-takeover-deal
  14. I'm struggling to see how he improves the first XI mind. Who do they drop to fit him in? He's another decent player to add to the squad obviously but he's not that good like.
  15. Watch them sack Mullins tonight
  16. I've taken a few steps back from it all, I'm not sure who to believe. I just keep on asking myself the same questions - "why haven't they said 'no' yet? It's been over 3 months and they've still not rejected it" Usually followed by "what the fuck more to SA need to do to get them to say 'yes'?" I'm just a bystander at this point, whatever happens will happen, I can't influence it either way so I'm not going to worry about it. It'll happen or it won't. I hope it does but if it doesn't then my interest in NUFC will dwindle away to virtually 0. Another season of Ashley and Bruce doesn't bare thinking about, so I'm not going to
  17. "absolutely World Class CH" btw too. Not just useful or emergency CH. World class CH. Sort of makes you wonder why no other manager has ever even considered playing him there. I mean, if he could have been World class in any position I'd have thought he'd have been given a go there at some point. Maybe every single other person is wrong and Bruce is right?
  18. Ppppffffftttttttt Dogshit keeping
  19. :lol: Didn't realise they'd already given it to Mullins. Seems a crazy move but you never know what's happened behind the scenes.
  20. Wouldn't surprise me if they just let Deeney take over for the last week with maybe an experienced coach alongside him. Seems like he's the main man down there.
