    £10 million?

    Every window someone pipes up with "asset stripping" and every close of window we're still pretty whole, if not slightly bigger. Which is not to say he won't, but there's still no indicator he will.

    Alan Pardew

    Still disgusted and angry at the regime that instated him at the way his predecessor was treated? Pardew might get results but he'll be forever tainted with the association to MA+DL.

    Alan Pardew

    I'd hope the quote from the "What are they looking for" thread still applies

    Represents value for money, a core principle at Newcastle United sponsored by Sports Direct FC.

    I'd hope a 2nd relegation would force the twat to sell at a reduced price rather than fuck around funding it any more.
  7. It's like that scene from As Good as It Gets "How do you write Ashley so well?" "I think of a man. And I take away reason and accountability"
  8. The (once) billionaire owner finally gets around to assembling a team of (poorly paid) mercenaries.
  9. What can success even mean in a world with Man Utd and Arsenal still steamrolling, Chelsea and Man City able to outspend anyone else, Spurs, Everton and Liverpool with well built squads performing to their level ... even with solid investment it will take time to build us back up to where we could compete with the lower end of that lot, on a shoestring, 10th would have to be considered success.
  10. What's the next level beyond poison chalice? Kevorkian housecall? Jesus shitting christ, this cannot end well and no one would could move us up the table on a shoestring (Wenger mk II ? ) would ever come in and work for that fat twunt.

    I will give someone a box of chocolates if they kill me
  12. Anyone want to put together a slow mo montage of Hughton clips with a backing track of I Dreamed A Dream from Les Mes? It keeps running through my mind.
  13. Just threw up a little. Godspeed, Chris.

    Shola Ameobi

    Needs put down Ol Yeller style imo.
  15. The problem isn't Ameobi's potential, which has always been high. The problem is that when you name AMeobi to the starting XI he'll nab a goal and be a handful for defenders or he'll control and dribble like frankenstein with a charlie horse, lose possession and sap your will to live. Loven and Ranger, despite not having a better upside to their game, seem at least more consistent in what you get. A better known quantity to work with. I agree that you can argue both ways. Clearly the fact that we're having this conversation proves that "picking Ameobi" isn't a surefire indicator that Hughton is a terrible manager? I'm not one of the opinion he's a terrible manager. I'm of the opinion picking shola is a terrible choice because he's shite more often than good and let's face it, is never going to be consistently good. I think Chris took a gamble starting him today and it didn't pay off.

  18. Could have sworn the commentator just said "nice predatory instincts from rubbishkrands." :lol:
  19. When Roberto di Matteo smirks he looks like a child molester as the verdict is read being found not guilty on a technicality.
  20. There's still time to get sent off Alan. I believe in you. You can do it.
