Takes too long to control the ball and decide what to do, can't break the press, can't take the ball into his stride when he runs forward, slow, turning circle of a tanker, anonymous until he fucks up.

Oh, fuck off.

Who's?

Gets a bye because he's local but Longstaff's shite. Need to upgrade central midfield.

Can confirm there are no pie and mash shops on the Old Kent Road. I live 10 minutes away more Algerian cafes and Nigerian restaurants ?

Can actually keep the ball under pressure and decent dribbler.

We cant pass, no movement to receive the ball, no style of play, no gameplan.

:lol: Yeah we're lacking some of that black power.

Through ball for Fraser to run on to where he tried to chip Pope?

Don't think he is, gets fouled a lot compared to other players.

Solid performance, if he offers consistency in midfield we'll improves as a team. Dont think the likes of Shelvey and the Longstaffs offer that.

Looked plenty fast when he ran with ball

Put in a good cross as well that Wilson headed wide.

If that's true that's a shit selection.

Making fun of Kochs name, how childish. ?

To be honest what more can NUST do, if they attack the league they wont get an audience with them. By engaging they can keep shining a light on the issue and hope the politicians investigate the PLs actions during the takeover saga. I think NUST' actions to date is more to keep the story in the media so others I.e politicians run with it rather than they to land a knockout punch. Sorry, I was actually talking about the Wor Fund announcement that they're going to assert an appeal against the PL in the Competition Appeal Tribunal. I should have quoted it: Ah, misunderstood.

Finally got a response from my local MP Harriet Harman bit of meh response: Dear *****, Thank you for contacting me about the proposed takeover of Newcastle United Football Club. I appreciate the concerns you raise. As you may know, the CEO of the Premier League, Richard Masters, has written to my colleague Chi Onwurah, MP for Newcastle Central, setting out the Premier League’s response to questions asked about its approach to the planned takeover. Mr Masters said the Premier League had not been able to assess the suitability of the potential owners of the club because the consortium had not provided the required information. He said this was because the consortium disagreed with the Premier League’s determination of who the actual owners of the club would be after the takeover. Mr Masters further stated that the Premier League would be reviewing the owners’ and directors’ test in the coming months to ensure it remains robust and fair to everyone involved. I appreciate that many Newcastle United fans will feel disappointed at the withdrawal of the consortium’s bid for the club. I can assure you that I will continue to monitor any further developments on this issue. Last year the Government promised to set up a fan-led review of football governance, which will include the owners’ and directors’ test. I believe the Government needs to get started on this review as soon as possible, so we can deliver a governance structure for football that is modern, accountable and above all, puts fans at the heart of their clubs. As part of this review, I believe it will be important to consider who should be able to own a football club, as well as what information needs to be in the public domain regarding ownership, finance and structure. Above all, I believe the review must be genuinely driven by what fans want and need. It is therefore vital that the Government makes clear what “fan-led” will mean in practice and, crucially, when we can expect change. It is almost ten years since the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee published recommendations on football governance – including for “a strong fit and proper persons test consistently applied” – and these issues are becoming urgent. Thank you once again for contacting me. Best wishes Harriet Harman

This Singapore lot are bullshitters what's the more important question is Stavely got us to rattle the PL's cage so what now? Do they intend to revive the bid after applying this public pressure or did she get us to waste our time?

Guys a plank. Pretended to sell a car used in a hit and run and got questioned by police. Just your reliable type.

gjohnson[/member] Cheesy Beans[/member] Let's hope he's right and it's still on and more importantly it happens.

True. I'm an optimist but I wouldn't rely on Caulkin as we saw he isn't as informed as some think he is. He was tweeting all that cans nonsense at the outset and then as it dragged on then went silent with the odd "it takes as long as it takes".

Just wrote to my local MP the Right Honorable Harriet Harman member for Camberwell and Peckham. Not sure if she'll get involved in a non London matter but every bit helps I guess.
