Maybe I missed Amanda's husband's official involvement in the whole project. I knew he had been very active, supportive and championing it on social media. I was quite surprised if not taken a bit back when started speaking in the video of them arriving at SJP..and then continued speaking. Seems like they are the going to both be the public faces. They both come across smart, knowledgeable, passionate and likeable so far. It's very PR power couple, William and Kate or more Steph and HHH ? The authority is here. B+ players be gone, YES YES YES.

I was working putting giant shutters up at the end of the day at a seaside cafe, listening on the radio with earphones. Got back home just in time for. "Albeaaar.......OOOOOOOOOH" Will never forget this soundtrack from the Sky wrap up package highlights of the game to end coverage.

When Kevin Nolan defied all laws of physics, then chicken danced his way around St. James Park.
-
His whole story is pretty inspirational, obviously he is poster boy over here but speaks very well, is always the soul of the party at Bayern and in the Canada Camp and universally liked and praised. Zero ego and unbelievable head on his shoulders given his talent, age and what has been put on his shoulders. Full on bias from watching him play since his debut at 15 for the Whitecaps but he is a generational talent no doubt.
-
Yeah, thats a pipe dream. He will leave Bayern in a 2-3 years either way imo. Whether we can grow the club and project to a point that he see's that as attractive who knows. He is the type of player and personality I would like to see the club grown around though. He would absolutely LOVE Newcastle.

Airport TLC match. Sadly Ashley wasn't RAW GM at the time.
-
Alphonso Davies and ASM down the left. He would be a massive addition on and off the pitch for the club.
-
Considering the other potential choices Martinez would feel a bit disappointing but better than the likes of Gerrard, Lampard, Howe or Southgate imo. Not one to rule out considering Jones being here already.
-
There can be only one. it is time.
-
I want Alphonso Davies. Make it so Amanda.
-
Definitely gone by Monday Will be Jones in charge of training next week and the Spurs game - fans chanting his name. New manager in the stands - fans also chanting his name
-
Sod that. Bring us Alphonso Davies, Buchanan and Jonathan David instead Eustaquio just for fun.
-
Taking one for the team, bringing Conte home
-
Just wait until the spurs game. Could be packed inside and outside! Going to be mental.
-
Remember this coming out in 2020. Soak this mother in...
-
I watched most Lille games last season for Jonathan David and they were anti football and zero squad cohesion. Still don't know how they won the league. While it was likely more the personalities in the squad it was horrific to watch. We need someone classy and charismatic to unite the fanbase but also someone that plays attacking football that suits the club/fanbase.
-
Seems mad to almost nonchalantly throw out names like Conte and while I haven't look I am sure there are lots of other fans mocking us for suggesting. However.. It didn't stop us getting Rafa under horrific ownership with scant resources and ambition. I think people are naive to think some big names wouldn't want this challenge and more so that the new ownership would want anything else but the best available. Who knows who will succeed Bruce but Gerrard, Lampert...Howe? I'd be shocked if they didn't aim for higher.

Had to zoom in. Didn't remember seeing that statue of Christ before!
-
Getting emotional at work over football and looking like a twat. I am a twat but the emotion is real. Just can't believe it. Can't process it. amazing.
-
If even this cunt has relented and given in... I will start to believe.
-
Announcement delayed until tomorrow afternoon so people turn up to work tomorrow fit and able? Might as well call a public holiday tomorrow if they announce today!
-
If it really has been close for weeks like reported or looking like happening for a while, you would think/hope so. Depends whether they want to hire an exec, DoF and do a whole review of the club first. In a normal situation I would think they would do that and keep Bruce on until that is done. We are always nothing like normal though and Bruce's position is untenable, they wont want that stink and bad taste in the fans mouth's. A big name stop gap caretaker for the season maybe? Really why wait though.
-
There is no need for a transitional manager, they will be tapping someone up for the long term. While we would be happy with practically anyone other than Bruce at this point, I think the owners would be looking beyond the likes of Howe. Imagine if they just bought Rafa out lol. I would expect them to make an impactful statement appointment for Manager. It's more about who really wants a project that is available right now.
-
Don't believe a word of it...but despite saying to myself I would just ignore it, I still ended up logging in and post lol I....want... to.... believe....
-
He is ultimately as unambitious, allergic to change, unable to handle criticism, gutless and two faced as the club under Ashley. It is exactly why we are sat in a cunt off with one refusing to sack the other and the other refusing to walk until he gets sacked. Bruce is likely to go on stress/health leave before walking so he gets paid off.
