You’d think the Department for Trade were more involved anyway. Don’t forget FIFA rules about government interference in national associations. They can’t be seen to do anything

Good news. Former players on twitter have never been wrong about a takeover before. Especially Ollie In memory of Paul Walton

Jose Enrique centre back

I’d assumed he had an appearance fee clause and Bruce has spent most of the appearance fee budget (which may have been revised down after safety secured)

He isn’t. He’s a mighty pirate How appropriate, you fight like a cow. I’m shaking, I’m shaking

He isn’t. He’s a mighty pirate

Thinking ahead a bit but there is no way Qatar will let this go even if the takeover happens (just as it makes Saudis more determined). Can see the following happening: 1. Trying to buy another PL club 2. Putting in higher bids for our transfer targets 3. Loaning players to our rivals 4. Infiltrating our club with spies who leak stories to the press 5. Bribing referees 6. Interfering with Staveley and Reuben business interests 7. Encouraging journalists to provide a negative spin

Is Pardew choosing their managers now? Pearson did such a good job to have them 17th after what he took over. They looked DOA

I doubt that really came out in about 2 years of part time crossover during a period when Owen was still under 21.

Ashley and his mate Rio could be going to jail if anything can be proven https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8532349/amp/Phone-company-boss-recorded-claiming-call-records-used-Rio-Ferdinands-drugs-test-case-paid-for.html

One magpie has landed in my garden. Don’t think I’ve seen that happen since 2004. Normally it is two.

If running the players into the ground meant 8 points from first 4 games back effectively securing our league status and hopefully secure takeover by removing any rumoured relegation clauses then he did the right thing to be honest.

Was Helder our first African born player? I can’t remember any before

PL engaging with Qatar / BEIN in advance of any official decision and then them telling Keys is not as far fetched as probably 95% of ITK claims

A good week to bury bad news? Or a need to take existing workloads off the table?

52 followers, pretty sure PIF would have known about anything like this from the start and it's not been reported by anyone else and specifically nobody in the football or business media It sounds a logical reason however if sponsorship deals are indeed in place. There have been so many issues easy for others to slip notice.

Pearson clearly the ether manager. Outstanding turnaround this season by Watford

Can we make this the MOREPOINTSTHANRAFAOMETER

RIP Jack. One of my first memories of football is him managing Ireland at USA 94

Going down probably Vienna

What am I missing here? Is this specific to NUFC? Don't think anyone knows. I know

Look at his next post he’s just announcing the return of his podcast

Agreed, that's a woeful point like Also Willems was fantastic in the games he played for us, but he's had a serious injury and there's surely questions if he'll even be the same player I'm sure he's out until 2021 anyway, don't see why you'd look to sign him until his recovery is complete How? What’s woeful about the idea of signing players who have chemistry? Whether that’s bringing in former team mates or players of the same nationality. Happens all the time. Seems like there is infinite distance between your point of views

Looks like it’s going to Lyon

He was a doubt before the game so presumably only good enough for the bench
