  1. You, sir, just shot up massively in my estimation. THEY’RE HAVING IT OFF
  2. On what basis - firm, concrete basis - should it be done by now? Unless the rules have been made far stricter, I don’t get how Man City could be bought on an iou ?, money splashed out on Robinho and a statement of intent released before they’d even started the owners and directors test. With Newcastle, it always has to be fucking played out in the media and it almost always ends up with us looking like a bunch of twats when it ultimately ends badly. What you’re saying is you think this deal should be done quicker because the Manchester City one was completed quicker and the buyer went public earlier. You’ve got to realise this deal is a different deal so the comparative factor you’re using is useless. To me it looks like you’re just vocalising your nerves, but going and typing a message in public makes you feel like you’re doing something about (and can therefore control) your nerves. We’re all nervous and none of us have an iota of control or influence over this. I’m sorry to use you as an example but this is an archetypal example of how lies and misinformation are spread. Just repeating something else one hears elsewhere, or vocalising one’s fears in a way which comes across as a statement of fact, isn’t ultimately of any benefit to anybody. I really wish that more people could apply a bit of a thinking filter when they read or hear any information. The vast majority of information available to you is not objective fact, and it’s been that way your whole life. Being an adult involves acknowledging that and taking action accordingly, in my view.
  3. Some guy is commenting under that article saying his mates uncle works at the PL and the deal is already done :lol: Edwin Preston A bit of quick Facebook research would suggest only one likely candidate residing from North London. You could always ask him for us? "Facebook research"
  4. As a lawyer, I can tell you with confidence that it's 99% smoke and mirrors bollocks to justify exorbitant fees... This was always my suspicion In essence, we charge people multiple thousands of pounds to save them doing reading which they can't be arsed to do. BUT WE DON'T MURDER PEOPLE LIKE THE SAUDIS DO THEY'RE SO MUCH WORSE YOU HYPOCRITE WWWAAAHHHHHHH cans Thats rather unfair. If i instruct a lawyer to attain money owed from somoeone, its the fear that makes them open out Oh yeh, we do offer some value here and there. But largely, we're a bunch of horrible, horrible arseholes.
  5. Also it's not mad, it's cold hard logic. These are broadcasters selling services / ad space to racists, of which there are many millions in the UK. Even mild xenophobia is guaranteed profit in the UK. Ignore it, because it can be nothing other than manufactured guff, closet racism or the inner machinations of a quarterwit.
  6. Mad isn’t it ? Why don't you let him have a go at your beloved Liverpool?

  8. By the very nature of the exercise, carrying out the fit and proper persons test involves "considering blocking newcastle takeover". It's not news, man. It's really alarming how unprepared / unwilling / unable people are to scrutinise and think for themselves.
  9. Also, "LFEE's conversation thing" - also known as "chatting with your mates".
  10. In this version, LFEE plays a gift horse and Neesy an enthusiastic young horse dentist.
  11. As a lawyer, I can tell you with confidence that it's 99% smoke and mirrors bollocks to justify exorbitant fees. Following this logic, the amount of smoke and mirrors and bollocks involved to justify the fees of the boatload of professional services providers involved in this deal is, much like the seller's waistline, ego and repressed self-loathing, excessive.
  12. Wife says I've been drinking too much so weekday beers are off the cards. My firm has a cheap divorce lawyer, like
  13. Ah right, I'm sure they'll hurry along now the gasman has decreed it so.
  14. You're probably right. In the same way that I’m probably ginger
  15. Oh come on. I mean yes, I'd accept it. I'd accept being kicked in the balls to get rid of Ashley too, but it'd be fucking horrific watching Bruce being given an army of superstars and grinding out a 9th place finish whilst the media crow over how he's turned the club around. Just fuck no. Get rid of him on day 1. End of season at the very latest if they want to just get over the line and get someone new in the summer, but he should be sacked as soon as humanly possible and someone less resembling a human cabbage placed in charge instead, because anything else will be utterly galling. Why buy a Ferrari just to put a three-legged post-roadkill stoat at the wheel?
  16. And without whom Ashley never would have made so much money, given that Keegan set the groundwork to make us a PL stalwart and therefore stabilise TV money and advertising space abroad.
  17. The fact the club is still paying Henri Saivet a salary yet we're told that Mike is a great businessman.
  18. Showing naked contempt for the North East and its inhabitants at every step of the way.
  19. Ryan Taylor starting ahead of Ben Arfa
