  1. TBH it's better for the PL to announce soon to avoid any more 'pressure' from outside sources such as Amnesty. Once they are in then they can plead innocence or ignorance or whatever. I could see their pressure backfiring and pushing it through quicker.
  2. So which former poster are you?
  3. Classic whataboutery in sure... https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/06/amnesty-international-has-toxic-working-culture-report-finds Staff reported multiple accounts of discrimination on the basis of race and gender and which women, staff of colour and LGBTQI employees were targeted or treated unfairly. SA or AI? But Stones and glass houses etc...someone took their own life due to it as well.
  4. Me too, mine was class mind. Was it about pardew?
  5. It's all getting a bit tetchy.
  6. Well according to reports (Caulkin) Charnley is going to be needed at first before they fuck him off so cant see that being true. Sure Ashley said he'd be keeping Freddie on for a bit then was turfed out by the end of the week.

    Naa, i can buy that. He's basically showing any famous moments on the pitch will be tarnished going forward (as it would if thy'd been in charge at that time) That is fine by me.
  8. Asm and joelinton are the only 2 that are perm and would get in the current team.
  9. Naa, not quick enough. I need to know breaking news within 30 seconds of it happening or it just won’t feel the same

    It’s actually doing the opposite of what it’s supposed to do and make me think fuck them all, I’m all in. Us vs the world. This is exactly what people have been arguing against, being told what to do, what to think and laying the guilt at the fans feet. It’s not even subtle like the other sports journos on Twitter.

    Nothing to do with that and with once again it being laid at the fans door. Implying you have to walk away from the club if you any morals and value life above it. It’s unfair. I’ve not decided how I feel, but sick of outsiders telling us how we should.
  12. It’s not like it’s even going back for rafa, it’s still his team, there’s even a chance this season doesn’t exist. If you were happy with Rafa last season you’ll be even more happy with him next season.

  14. The least you can do is when they nationalise the bus or rail services is to protest against the passengers who use it.
  15. How? He's had half a season with Real Madrid after being purchased for £60m. Any particular reason why they'd part ways with him that soon? He’s trouble and they’ve had enough of him already.
  16. f***ing Greg beat me to it. 'last edit by Greg' nice. Damn right. I'm not the idiot off Masterchef nor I am a seller of vegan sausage rolls. So 3rd best Greg(g) variant in our lives? Still not bad, like.
  17. Saudi pl tv deal: has to be prosecuted to count against and they couldn’t find anyone who was willing in SA to do so. I do think there will be a change for subs and then putting money in towards the tv deal now. I think it was more of a duck you towards the Qatar who’s feeds they were leeching rather than the pl.

    If you're not going to tap in to the biggest resource nufc has to offer then why buy the club? Home support (in numbers and potential numbers) at times is all we've got to offer, it would be daft not to exploit that to help support the club financially.
  19. You just know hell put on his poshest of posh geordie voices trying to impress. Bet he's home now using the thesaurus on word to expand his vocabulary.
  20. I thought it was 200 million including infrastructure improvements. £200m is the figure they gave to the Premier League, as part of the "fit and proper test" to get their purchase of the club approved. Lets put it this way . . . "they are very, very, unlikely to be planning to restrict themselves to that arbitrary figure". It was just given because they needed to give a figure, it is meaningless !!! Premier league will be hoping this takeover stimulates the player market. It couldn't have come at a better time and why they won't reject it. It was approved the minute it landed on their doorstep but are going through the motions to seem like it's something worthwhile.
  21. If villa go down we've got to take a closer look at Grealish. Seems our kind of player. I'd also hope we'd join the chase for Bellingham. But above all else we need a striker. I'd be happy going back for Rondon under Rafa with Joelinton playing a sub role and concentrate on other areas of the squad. Willems perm and possibly another rose loan to top it off. Need to sell all our right backs and buy one which is decent. So much work to be done. You could spend £500-600m and still have room to improve. Baby steps in the right direction, that's all we need for now.
  22. Looks like FFP is going to be relaxed when football starts back up in hope it stimulates the market. Good time to buy a club and pump £££s in to it.
