Fuck me :lol: FUCK! If these guys are taking over it would be class!

Only this club could have such a small gap between the odds on us being promoted and on us being relegated. On paddy power we're favourites at 9/2 to finish top and 12/1 to get relegated. West Brom are 11/2 to finish top and 40/1 to get relegated.

Thing is, all the papers are using the same spelling and they've obviously all got that spelling from somewhere so it's been used before. Even if it wasn't the most common spelling, you should be able to find an instance of it on English language sites considering business deals with rich middle-easterners get into the financial press. You'd think alternative spellings would be close enough for a "did you mean" suggestion if there's results for something like Sirrus Marjoob

Ranger's a muckle lad and not much seems to phase him, reckon he could cope with playing against cloggers better than some prem strikers.

I know him. Dum dum dah... He is friends with the Maktooum family and certain big time property boys in Dubai and Hong Kong. Between them they have 5 yachts. I can't say whether he will buy the club, but he exists, sky have probably spelt the name Englishstylee... Well, you can only spell it Englishstylee really, when you're translating a name from a language which uses a different alphabet all you can do is spell it phonetically. That's why there's so many inconsistencies in western spellings of Arab names and things like Taliban/Taleban. Is there a more common spelling of it we could search for though? Or do you know how to spell it in Farsi or whatever?

Apparently he now has his own fruit and veg business in his native Belguim. Could get him and Bernard to do the catering, if nothing else.

Roll the dice with Shearer every time. Preferably a Shearer-Rob Lee dream team if we're going for untested idols.

Am scared to ask how you know ;D Rule 34 of the internet - if it exists, there's porn of it. Google "dolphin fuck it does exist" if you want to double check EDIT: Reading this in reply mode without the smilies changes the meaning a bit "The internet, where you can find photos of people f***ing dolphins" "Am scared to ask how you know :kasper :"

Right so this is all there is on the net about this supposed billionaire. The internet, where you can find photos of people fucking dolphins, and there's no reference at all to a supposed high-flying rich Dubai businessman? I don't fucking think so. Third result is someone asking who the fuck he is! http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/5286/captureo.png Surely if you were writing an article in a paper you'd at least look up this guy to check he existed? What's wrong with these incompetents?

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have him still playing for us in the championship if he wasn't going to be on a crippling wage and was going to get stuck in for the cause rather than moping round the pitch wondering when he's going to be allowed to leave, but as that's not going to happen I'd rather have someone upfront who's glad to have the opportunity to play for Newcastle even at Championship level.

Odds that at least one of these "serious bidders" Ashley thinks he's got is some doil from Ready to Go who's sent them an email?

220 pages of this morbidly depressing abomination. Can we please float this thread off into the North Sea and sink it so it becomes a coral reef or something?

End of the transfer window? I can't see how this is going to be resolved before the end of time.

.com's take

Where are our nutters? I don't mean the fuckwits who shout at Sky cameras, I mean our proper unhinged organised criminal nutters. Surely there must be some mental gangsters or old-style hoolies who are NUFC fans, why haven't they arranged for a horses head in Ashley's bed or something? Well nothing that extreme, a pony's head maybe. Come on lads, sort it out. We buy your pikey DVDs and foreign fags, give something back to the community.

For fuck's sake. ...Unless this is because we're about to accept a different bid.

Wow, what an accolade, ranks alongside being the best paraplegic juggler. Martins got the reputation of being able to score the odd wonder goal while squandering simple chances because that's what he's been doing this most of this season. Simples.

Stuart79 on nufcblog http://www.nufcblog.com/2009/07/27/what-does-asking-price-of-100m-for-newcastle-mean/ it was actually "Billy Bunter" who left that comment, Stuart79 only quoted him. Is Billy Bunter's "Our Donna" more or less reliable than Stuart79 do we think?

Starting with kinnear in charge is going into the season effectively managerless.

Cliche ridden. And where exactly did that cliche come from? Because as was pointed out even by managers who played him, he was a scorer of great goals and not a great goal scorer. He has a brilliant highlight reel but regularly failed to slot away the bread and butter chances that a striker needs to.

Oh no, I'd hate for the club to end up on he brink, I much prefer where we are now.

The one good thing about signing up to the three year sentence is that it was much easier to just let it tick over and not think about it than it would have been to actually fill in a form and put in my payment method.

There saying the same thing on F365. Link? Fuck it, I'm going to believe this one just because it's better than this perpetual state of nothingness. Plus any accouncement is just as likely to be "Can't sell the club, here's Joe Kinnear." so I'm not even really getting my hopes up.

"Sorry for the delay in your paycheques this month, they're on the table inside this lockable meeting room along with the forms you need to fill out to claim your belated Christmas bonus of a speedboat. Derek, go start the engine."
