I often think you are wrong on many things but I think you could be correct in what you are saying. I am off to sleep now as agreeing with you is wrong . I am worried I will start agreeing with....................next!! You should agree with me more, you'd be right more often! Nah seriously I can't remember ever arguing with you or really remember if I generally agree with you or not to be honest

Perhaps by the end Keegan didn't believe he was fully in charge of transfers anymore, but if he didn't he certainly did believe that good things were coming from the decisions being made. Like when he said that we should wait to see what came from selling Milner, he'd been told the money was being used for something big. He could role with the punches when he knew that something good would come out of it for Newcastle United. But when he found out even that was bollocks he said enough is enough, that's my guess anyway..

Sorry removed that post since you already answered before I posted

Sadly, I'd say it would have been almost guaranteed to have happened. The protests were not violent in the slightest. I honestly don't think the massive majority of supporters would stand for that kind of thing.

He was given a chance to find a manager for the system months ago, and he brought Keegan in.. Nobody had any problem with him getting a second chance, had he simply communicated his thoughts to the fans in the first place. He let the animosity grow by being his usual ignorant self. Also why shouldn't Keegan be bigger then Ashley?, not that its even an issue of one being bigger then the other in the first place like..

Not suggesting he should bring his kids obviously, or that he even should have come along himself. Just saying there's no way he was going to be assaulted.

I think it really all came from a lack of information coming from Ashley. With everything happening he never said a word, all he needed to do was tell it like it is. Release a statement saying there's been a bit of a bust up and he's going to try to sort something out, the silence made everything 10 times worse.

Can't believe he thought him and his family would be assaulted, there's no way that would have happened.

Who wants him back?.. is nobody the answer? quite a few people writing in to SSN and a couple on interviews as well. aye it may not be many people, but its the people on sky sports who have forced ashley to sell up. i'm getting worried, i hope to god SSN have been specifically looking for people who wanted shepheard back. Oh I thought he meant on here, and yeah of course they'll have been looking for looney's as usual

I don't know.. I bet the players we've brought in are on a fraction of the amount the players we've sold were on.

I'd bet our wages have dropped a decent amount after the last transfer window. But certainly last time these kind of stats were released we had the 5th highest wages in the Premiership. However it should also be remembered that in the same season we also had the 6th highest revenue in the league!..

Who wants him back?.. is nobody the answer?

I found it strange that a few months back Ashley stated that he paid off the debts so that "today Newcastle United doesn't owe a penny to anyone". Yet today he says we're still in major debt..

He does very little for free apparently. Well he's done less then very little as ambassador so that must have been for free then

My opinion on Shepherd hasn't changed at all, has anyone elses changed really? The only reason I wouldn't go mental is the fact that he'd be an employee this time, not an owner. Too many stupid decisions and he'd be gone whether he liked it or not.

So why do they want freddie then? Because they obviously can't run the club by themselves with no footballing experience. Although he's a fucking clueless idiot, Shepherd has experience of running a football club. To be honest a sackable Shepherd wouldn't be bad, he's got the connections and experience in the game, this time around too many mistakes and he's sacked, that could make all the difference.

Really? Anil Ambani has a personal wealth of £22 billion...

Hmm, not sure anyone's going to pay that, doubling your money with the club in the state its currently in seems just a little bit too ambitious to me.

Well he paid £134 million for the club and paid off £70 million deb so that's £204 million. But having spent nothing on players so far he'll have recouped over half of that £70 million from club revenue. So I'd say £250 would give him a nice little £70-80 million profit. Not an amazing profit for the money, but if he just wants out with a profit now surely it would do. If he wants out and has instructed his people to sell the club but expects a profit close to £300 million then he's a fucking idiot!

Wise's signings?, the blokes got no idea where to find players. Vetere will have found all of them.. How could Keegan have stayed and signed a fullback and attacking midfielder when he left after the transfer window closed?

Some of the worst idea's I've ever seen.

Hows that? We had 8 first teamers missing (yes we all hate Smith but I'd play him ahead of Ameobi), that's something almost no squad in the league could cope with. Its the same amount of missing players that's fucked up Manures start to the season.. So yeah I agree our squad isn't good enough to cope with losing 8 first team players but that doesn't make it not good enough full stop IMO.

this is gonna be an avoid going down season at best mate, "doing something" is on the bus to another city along with his friend "enjoyment" slog time i'm afraid Nonesense, lets not get stupid ok, we had massive injury problems, ones no club could cope with. Yes we still should have beaten Hull, but lets face it our luck was also injured yesterday... Martins, Gutierrez, Beye, Viduka, Enrique, Barton, Duff, Smith Get most of those players back and we've got a good team and a good squad, one that will not be troubled even by the thought of relegation.

Of course, he's the best person for the job, the candidates we're looking at to replace him or quite frankly pathetic. Most people here seem to be using the reasoning that he walked out so if he came back he'd just do it again. If the likes of Wise stay at this club any good manager with any integrity at all will end up walking out within a year anyway.. once they're sick to the back teeth of being undermined.

Of course it does.. The value of the club when Ashley bought it was lower partially because of the debt, paying off that debt raises the value of the club.
