All in all it's prob classic speculation, public negotiation, ways to get this guy's name in the press and out there etc. but rumors are good - let's keep them coming and hopefully something sticks.

will buy

Gaffa cakes god i love this place

raffa cakes holy s*** the man the man who owns' McVities digestive biscuits will always be OK to me. 60m in January seems decent enough.

go on... After the transfer window closed he argued that we had a perfectly fine squad and Rafa shouldn't have any complaints. Which now, of course, means that in his mind we are performing about average given our squad (i.e. a replacement manager would be doing the same). Not sure any manager in the league be able to do what Rafa has done for us and especially what we’re doing right now. I don’t see the managers who run the top 5 having the patience and character to persist with the high level of coaching, preparation, and planning to get these players ready every single week.

You also put time constraints on the deal to force hands of people, drive pricing competitively, etc. also no idea how your taxable gains are in UK.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we countered with him and he had the ball in the corner, lost the ball, they countered and then ended up getting the penalty? no?

Or you just have your respective tax attorneys review the documents in diligence, and understand the risk and the liabilities - given it was done on prior ownership's watch, any Buyer would look to indemnify themselves from any action or penalty; assuming it was financial and NOT club suspension of points, transfer bans etc. that would be the potential penalty for the tax probe. Again, assuming it's monetary or criminal to those who were part of this then any buyer with proper attorneys overlooking this can get comfortable with it. Amanda Staveley's case against Barclay's could have nothing to do with her acquisition of Newcastle, the capital behind the Barclay's case is likely not the same (Man City owner, right?) as the group she'd be involved with buying the club and litigation attorneys are probably not doing M&A work.

Get Mitro into the squad man. Wish we sold Gayle while we had the chance.

What the hell has happened to Gayle?

Lejeune basically made 1 mistake that all centre backs make. He’s pretty much played the rest of it spot on. Jamaal, Ciaran and Chancel all aren’t perfect either. Happy with 1 pt. Annoyed we didn’t walk away with 2 more pts. But all good. Keep fighting.

Fuck nearly redeemed himself the daft cunt

Stupid mistake by Lej. Misjudged everything about Long.

Fuckkkkkkk

Lej had time

Yep

Finally Ayoze!

We have a brilliant way of making teams feel like they are in more control than reality.

Not surprised at all by the changes for some reason merino deal converts Friday on the bench Sunday.

If you're buying a premier league club in today's world you're going to be paying for much of the upside and future potential - there's no way any seller will price the club like you would real estate or any business.

Agreed

I haven’t been there since the dark days of Pardew when I would contastly get into arguments with the supporters club there for not supporting the team and criticizing a manager who got us to 5th. so true, but I try not to take anything really seriously when I see matches at Legends and just enjoy (try to...) the match. I saw us beat Spurs 2-1 when we played them during the home opener the season after we finished 5th; the Hull away match where we on and Pardew headbutted Meyler, and a few seasons back when we went down to Swansea and got murdered and the general mood was "we're fucking shit"

Defintiely got a higher ceiling than Cabaye imo Agreed 100%

I've got one of my closest friends now supporting us and he's going to hit up legends now that he moved to NYC to hang with the NYC group.

Saw this one guy downtown with a Newcastle badge tattoo on his arm or leg (can't remember) and there is a guy at my gym who works out in the 11/12 third kit (black, northern rock) who I think i need to confirm if he's a legit supporter or not and reboot the Orlando Mags group back to at least 2. lonely af
