I think that’s a fair assessment and fairly level headed. I agree with that.

I just think it serves no purpose other than getting the fans even more pissed off. Offering Rafa the same terms with minimal investment + not signing the likes of Rondon.. If Rafa leaves people will be mega pissed off. Vs Offering Rafa the same terms with minimal investment + not signing the likes of Rondon because the club is in the process of being "taken over".. Ashley is going to claim his hands were tied. As far as Rafa is concerned if he accepts the contract and we dont get taken over, he is going to be feeling a little foolish and the club will have wasted yet most of another window. A lot of fans heads are in the clouds, so are not really worrying about signing Rondon and some are even dreaming of Mourinho if we get taken over. It’s Ashley’s fault either way

I just think it serves no purpose other than getting the fans even more pissed off.

That’s not to mention all the promo shots with the players are done. Any potential new owner will have enough to be doing than bothering with what strip we are wearing for a season

You are just on the wind up. You just make these random statements. Away ye go looney

Who’s attention? What are you talking about? You really are thick ? Maybe but I’m making more sense than you. No one’s attention has gone from Rafa. Conversing with you is making me thicker. Not one thing you have said makes logical sense ya mad man

Another company struck off companies house. That’s the fifth now. Club say just a corporate tidy up. Chronicle with a pointless article on it https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/more-newcastle-united-activity-companies-16401967.amp?__twitter_impression=true

Who’s attention? What are you talking about?

I agree but they’ve started a uk holding company and I’m sure the PL said they had received the head of terms. Seems a lot of work to put in just to be bullshitters

Thinking about it logically and not like a mental case. Rafa met with Ashley. He’s been given an offer and Rafa is waiting it out to see what happens with takeover. If by the last week of June there’s no positive news on the takeover Rafa will give his decision wether he’s staying or going. By all accounts he’s still doing work behind the scenes and doesn’t have to decide till end of June. A conspiracy ffs

Don’t be stupid. That makes no sense. Are you thick ? Why not just say no one has bid? And appoint who he wanta when rafas contract runs out. He knows he'll face barely any reaction regardless. What you're saying makes no sense. He doesn't need to go through that trouble as it doesn't help him in any way. Honestly wonder how daft people need to be to think it’s all a set up just to get rid of Rafa. It’s fuckin mental

Don’t be stupid. That makes no sense. Are you thick ? The fans will be upset and pissed off if Rafa leaves yes? So what your suggesting is Ashley concocts a plan to get the fan base even more rilled up and pissed off (when takeover fails) and then let Rafa’s contract run out. If you believe that your either seriously dense or a total fruitcake

But he does if the conn is indeed the intention here ... it buys him all of June and most of July to get in a replacement who is happy to spend 'all of the money the club generates' plus a loanee or two to keep the fans onside. In short it is just possible and I stress the JUST that another 90mill quid in the back pocket that bought Debenhams last year is his goal and who knows that is surely ... worth putting 5 mill in a Sheiks back pocket to play along to his merry tune All conjecture but getting into the mind of a psychopath driven purely by profit is interesting stuff And you honestly think that and that a multi-billion pound company with headed by royalty would play alongg with that, really? :idiot2: It really is ridiculous

Don’t be stupid. That makes no sense.

I think it’ll happen eventually. I just wish we could have some clarity of what stage we are at. Chronicle over last couple days saying PL test not started and mirror saying they havnt even presented proof of funds. Also they are consistent in saying there are other bidders. Just wish they’d come out and tell us where we are at

Think the Rafa situation makes people nervous and the shit newspapers not having a clue doesn’t help

How likely is that? I'd say it's 50/50. At least for fun88, they probably have another sponsor lined up. Hopefully they can get a better deal with another shirt brand so it will be worth buying puma out. Puma deal is up after this season and they won’t change this seasons kits now

How likely is that?

This bit tho. Ffs so so bored of this now

Yes to be fair tho it’s pretty much just something that was in the papers

The Mag is fucking abysmal now. The fact that people just submit articles online rather than having to post them in and having a limit on articles per month has opened it up to every idiots immediate reaction. They make it so much worse by writing headlines which gives the impression that they are facts they are sharing and not options. Obviously this is done in order to get the click bait reactions. It’s just horrific though, just what was a light hearted fan magazine that turned into an advertisement revenue generator for the owners of the Mag. That’s not the mag

Sad news RIP

The away shirt looks like a finger print
