  1. To be honest I'm that disappointed after the way that quote started it didn't finish with..."not today"
  2. Don't worry saivet will keep him out of the team. Lazaar fills the need to buy another left back.
  3. Yeah, it'll be a kick in Sputniks if he's incompetent but quite nice. Tbf worst case is they somehow appoint someone competent that does well.
  4. Someone found a magic mirror showing Odin photoshopping whatsapp now all hell is breaking loose.
  5. No one has the mental and emotional interest and capability to start the who's next thread...yet.
  6. Yeah but can you get your arms around this seany baby..
  7. I doubt the club will ever even acknowledge the takeover attempts. BZG will fade away and cover their asses with a few statements of being disappointed, tried hard etc.
  8. I used to think about one day having kids that would watch games with me. I have kids now, I don't think I want to put them through this shit. Absolutely gutting thought. Sure I'm not alone. This cunt has drained the soul and is killing traditions. I thanked Rafa on here at the end of the season as I thought it was the end then. Sadly predictable it's drawn out this long. Sadly predictable the protest tonight had dozens not hundreds. Hopefully they organized more and more people turn up tmrw.
  9. Been shot down by Craig Hope. Bit extreme by Hope. "Desperate times.." I guess.
  10. that's the thing though, it simply doesn't at all Well it does. He has proven time and time again he and his cronies have no clue on hires. They won't find someone that is capable enough to keep us up like rafa was and they won't spunk the same amount they did with schteevie. There won't be a better time to cash in under his ownership than now. Yes there is going to be the same portion of people that will turn up whatever but more and more people not related to the club are speaking up in the media against Ashley and more and more general fans are starting to understand what's going on. Whilst the "public pressure" is going to continue to build up it will never be the sole factor for selling. There are better business ventures out there for him without the growing hassle. He simply can't realise the financial potential here (which ironically would make him much richer) because he simply won't do the things neccesary to do it. The club will become an albatross around his neck especially when we go down. I still think he will asset strip us and fuck off. Likely we arent that lucky.
  11. Classic cycles of hope and denial. We have all known the truth we have just been happy to believe any of the lies that might lead to hope because the reality is so devoid of it. Something has to give at somepoint. The general public is starting to see what we have for the past decade. I do think he will sell sooner rather than later as he won't get a better chance to make money on the club. It's freefall from now on. He will absolutely poison the well on the way out though. He already has. Anyways, we should reserve this space for rafa love now. Best manager we have had since sir bobby and best person since hughton. He brought class and respectability back the club. As fans we had a connection back to the players and the club through rafa. It doesn't matter who comes in now they will always be in Rafa's shadow for most people.
  12. I don't really see why Ashley would be interested in keeping rafa if the club was being sold. That's up to the new owners. Likely it isn't being sold though and it's yet another insult to the history of the club and its fans. Garry monk sounds absolutely expected though. Someone cheap that had a good run with a team at somepoint in the irrelevant past. Ĺ
  13. I feel for you poor sods back home. I've invested in the new Canadian league here. It's league one at very best but exciting to be part of a start up of a league and chance to grow the sport here. Premiership rights got bought by DAZN so it's not even on tv next year. It's easy enough to remove myself from Newcastle even if a part of me will always hurt to do so.
  14. Do I Giggs with throwing a jaffacake out there? Whether it's a biscuit is more debatable than progress at this club.
  15. "Attempt" = will you take the same wage in different text font on the contract? Rondon gone, Perez off and now almiron to real Madrid? Sounds about right. No takeover, Redfearn first team coach and 150m for Denis wise to return to spend as d.o.f. It's grim but it was always going to get worse before it gets better. Just a case or how much worse and how much longer. Tip of iceberg most likely given our recent history.
  16. It's inevitable, the whole situation. It's also the usual that it can't just be simple for us fans. Couldnt just be gone. False hope, expectations raised..then finally after everything looked like it might work, the sucker punch.
  17. Why is Bielsa hanging out the back of our stadium This spying malarky is getting a bit much.
  18. Pretty sure at least Alan Smith was the fat mans signing, Ashley not fat sam that is. There was a bunch of media around Smith being one of Ashleys favourite players. I actually remember that summer at the time thinking it was our best window ever. Against most others it still wasn't bad tbf, don't remember us signing so many players that looked potentially good like that before or since.

  19. They can't cope with having to report on the overwhelming information flowing from the club and the takeover situation.
  20. That joke is as old as, well, the flintstones. Prehysterical?
  21. Well we have to make sure we have something to be negative about just in case something positive happens. There must be balance.
