We could generalize with West Ham but this embodies everyone else in the transfer window followed by our attempts. http://cdn.smosh.com/wp-content/uploads/ftpuploads/bloguploads/0713/funny-prank-gif-tape-face.gif Except its Ashley that put up the tape.

www.skysports.com/amp/football/news/11095/11442395/west-ham-newcastle-interested-in-mexican-diego-reyes West Ham linked again. It's like palace when Pardew was there.

Cats? Probably a study somewhere? Was looking for the headline black cats turn on each other.

Muto: Mainz’s sporting director Rouven Schroder told Bild that no club has made an official bid yet: “There are inquiries, but so far no concrete offer!” Sounds like us. We are now safely back in prime monitoring mode after scaring ourselves shitless making an inquiry.

He walks out he'll get sued by the club for breach of contract. He's doing the right thing running it down. He should walk out and then take them for constructive dismissal like Keegan did Has far more public grounds and evidence of promises not kept. As highlighted in the Ashley thread a decent article from the chronicle for once https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/contradictions-heart-mike-ashleys-newcastle-14928479

Among so many other ownership and club hierachy faults, I feel like there is just basic lack of communication and ergo respect being shown to Rafa. Complete conjecture but I don't think he is getting kept in the loop with what is going on behind the scenes for transfers. Thats what I took from his last quotes. Either way it is astonshing he is still with us. I know he is hoping Ashley caves and sells the club, ironically he likely will at half the current asking price once rafa is gone and the club return to the championship.

In years so long past I would wake up in the morning excited for ye old Newsnow refresh. Every bloody day is getting worse this year. Perfect tactics so far to make us accept Rondon. Considering the filth we are starting to get linked to now middle of the road signings seem like a pipedream.

It's just bonkers. He stands to lose far more by not backing Rafa while the flipside he will only gain. Just by losing Rafa the club's value plummets not least with the turmoil and hell the fans will rain down on the club.

Don't really know how VAR has been working for this one. -

Good for him. Similar to a few he scored last season. -

All the defender said was "I prefer Andros too". -

Their right back has had him in his pocket the whole time so far. Fernandez, Yarney and Longstaff look just fine. -
Don't really get the math if the rags are still saying we have 40-50m to start with plus sales. We have an extra 10 from Merino and have offloaded Gamez and Haidara so far with Colback, Mitro and Mbemba all close too. Either we don't have the 40-50m budget they keep saying we have or Rafa is playing a few mind games. Blatantly both.

Various: Mike Ashley in talks with Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed Al Nehayan

Absolute toss weasel. It never rains it just pours shite with this cockwomble shitgibbon. -
https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/latest-news/barrow-2-newcastle-united-u23s-3 Finished 2-3. Not surprised it was close if we only played with 10 men like the match report says.

They will come out with some bollocks about being a season behind in premiership tv money and having to play catch up. Then someone will mention Brighton, huddersfield and Fulham and they will change the subject. All the loans are really so we can bid 30m for loftus-cheek. That will be 1m under their asking price and he will go to palace who pay it. We will get Alan Judge. On loan.
-
To be fair. Mike Ashley wants a team that just survives relegation every year. That is what rafa is giving him. Can't see us getting anywhere near top half at the minute. Certainly time to rectify that but only if the money is made available and charnley and co push deals through rather than gambling for every last penny they can save. In previous form I have no idea how we can complete the amount of deals we need to before the end or the window.
-
Morecambe are more likely to shell 18m out than us. Get wise before it's too late.
-
It's fucking brainless. He won't sell up at a reasonable price, he won't put reasonable money in. He is syponing all the money back that he ever put in, with interest. He is a complete gambler and surely soon if not already he will be turning profit off our own backs so if his gamble of not backing rafa and hoping he keeps us up backfires, selling at a loss when we are back in the championship or lower means nothing to his pocket.
-
Think of that 3 figure sum we are getting just from him being there...

And that's all she wrote.

I don't understand why there isn't another ref looking at the VAR why does he have to go look himself. It's like some old school British wrestling shenanigans building up the tension and working the crowd. It's needless theatrics. I thought there was supposed to be a fourth ref in charge to do that.
-
Harsh but his hand comes down to the ball instinctively there surely. Hands were in the same position but his left shot down in comparison to his right. Maybe just basic balance but tough call either way.
-
Could go either way that.
