why is there an "if" at the start of your sentence? Because there is one a the start of the thread title

If we stay up Nicky Butt and a consortium buy the club, Butt then makes himself player manager with a 20 year contract and renames the Milburn Stand the Nicky Butt Stand.

David James is such a mong, really does fancy himself.

It is just awful and to think it will/could get a shit load worse over the next 2 months. I can see if being bad for years. I really cant think how long it might take us to recover from this mis-management. Ashley is never going to be able to sell us so I can see us being under his "guidance" for a few years yet We would probably end up in league one. He will draw up a plan for the Championship which will fail as he is guaranteed to underestimate the league. He will prob keep Kinnear or heir some other has been who will probably do shit but Ashley will see him as the next England manager.

I cant believe this club is risking its survival in top flight football, for Joe Kinnear. This has to be the quickest deterioration of a club in football history surely? Has a club ever gone from fans on cloud 9, top 6 ambitions etc to this in the space of a season?

It is just awful and to think it will/could get a shit load worse over the next 2 months.

Just found out that if we did go into administration, our points deduction would infact be next season. Would be a fucking disaster if Ashley did it as we would just be fighting the drop next season again, but I still dont believe he will.

Im not so sure. Our debts arnt as big a problem now, its mismanagement from Ashley that has us in this situation as he spent too much time on the books and not enough on the squad, so relegation will more than likely happen and cripple him. Kind of ironic really.

I think Big Sam knew that he was going to get sacked. Once Ashley took over there were cries he wanted his own manager. Seemed Sam had given up come December aswell. If he was enthusiastic about his future here i.e. knew if he did well he would be here at least 5 years. Then I genuinely believe his time here would have been completely different.

That would be a dream

Why would Ashley put us into admin anyway? Incase we are forced into administration in the summer, so just doing it now so we lose points this season rather than next? Lets face it, we dont pick up points in the next 3 games we are down anyway.

I actually want him to be our manager, I want to embrace my nightmare. Cant beat em join em and all that.

Would it surprise you if he did?

Nah he isnt slow and old enough.

I love Lovenkrands up front. He goes after rebounds and occupies empty space, rather than pulling an Owen and Ameobi and just becoming empty space. They need to let their balls drop and go 4-3-3. I'd have Carroll up front before Owen. He's not staying, and he's not up for the fight. For all the shit Zog got, at least you could fucking find him while watching the match. The reaction from not starting Owen in the last game will now mean he is a guaranteed starter for the rest of the season, probably if injured aswell.

Played his last game for NUFC btw?

We still have Jonas, Geremi and Lovenkrands that can go out wide.

And while they are at it, explain the other 67,833,465 mind boggling decisions they have made.

Agreed

Cant fight for shit though

I have a link to the documentary, am I allowed to post it seeing as it was aired 13 years ago?

Laying into Ashley or telling the truth? No manager worth his salt would touch Newcastle.

Why wouldnt he? Liverpool to Real Madrid to a club that since he has been here has been a complete farce. I seriously doubt Big Sam and Kinnear's training is doing him the world of good either.

Not happening. I fully expect Ashley and co to sit down and create a plan in the Championship, it will of course fail as they will misjudge/underestimate the league as they have done in the Premiership. Lets just hope we arnt fighting relegation again next year as we will have next to nothing to work with after we get rid of players. I just hope in the mayhem of selling we do actually do abit of buying instead of waiting until the selling is done, as we just wont have time. (if we go down)

Urgh its gonna be heart breaking in the summer. What is worse, losing all our best players or having to watch cheap as chips Ashley and Joe fucking Kinnear rebuild the team?
