  1. Not exactly the Tories of the football world though are they. Have basically no money yet continue to produce year after year. Pard's reference no?
  2. Maybe we should have appointed a proper manager at the start of the season. Or January last year. Or even a few years back. Consolation goal!
  3. I still want us to win, don't understand that mentality, why would you want more embarrassment ? I want total embarrassment for tossers like Shelvey, Taylor, Janmaat, Sissoko and to a lesser extent Wijnaldum. The only thing Shelvey has done since signing for us is about 3 decent passes. He just sits back and is happy to be a passenger the whole game. The QE2 could turn quicker than Taylor. Janmaat has the worst attitude I've seen at the club since Keyring.. Sissoko sometimes puts a shift in but he thinks he's a CL standard player? Is he f***.. and Wijnaldum just doesn't quite know what to make of any of it.. playing with a bunch of total cowards has to be a new thing for him. The sum of their parts is why each and every one of us suffers through 90 mins each week... they should be made to endure all the abuse, scathing analysis and tarnished reputations. And Steve McLaren certainly played his part here too. Rafa is left holding the baby at the end of the season. It all comes back to Mike Ashley inevitably, so he'll be damned either way. But let's face it.. the club spent big this year. Does he deserve the full brunt of the anger? Or should it be directed at all these "parts" that have us doomed? 100% Ashley for 9 years of failure
  4. Love how we're making our own luck Mike. Enjoy the Championship!
  5. Saylor didn't even track the runner who just walsed passed him after giving it away. Begond shit.
  6. Absolutely this, said it all along. That makes no sense either. His primary aim is premier league exposure - he'd just keep us if successful, he just can't be arsed to do the necessary legwork. I agree he wouldn't sell it quickly as he's a stubborn arsehole but if we're down there long term is that attitude going to persist? I don't know how you can be so sure either way. So much of the motivation relies on being in the big time. Put it this way, if he wants £400m* then Mike Ashley is the kind of person that will still want £400m after a couple of years in the Championship (in fact, he will probably want more as we will get less income down there). He won't flog us on the cheap, he just won't - otherwise he would have done that by now. *for the sake of argument, not saying that he does. Im sorry but I totally disagree.The reason Mike Ashley hasn't "flogged" us is because we are extremely beneifical to Sports Direct as we are still in the Premier League, pretty much the most watched weekly sporting event in the world. The only reason Mike Ashley is here is to benefit Sports Direct, remember. As long as Sports Direct profit from their relationship with Newcastle, he will stay. Now take Premier League football away from Newcastle and you take away Sports Direct's biggest benefit of the relationship. Will he take a hit for a year or two to try and get us back, of course he will, especially with the parachute payments we will receive. However when it gets to the point we no longer benefit Sports Direct he will be gone. As far as would he sell the club for less than £250m or whatever? He certainly will. Do you think Ashley would give a s*** about 100m (this is not even considering how much he as already made from the club, so he has probably still made a profit)? He's lost nearly 1 billion pounds off the Sports Direct shares in the last year and he couldnt give a s***. £100-200m is nothing to Ashley if he deems it not worth the hassle. Also, as magpie1892 has pointed out, Ashley's long game now may well be to regain total control over SD with the share price being low and dropping (deliberately?). For that, he would need loads of cash, and from that perspective selling an asset that is losing value (presuming we go down and stay down) and is causing him massive headaches may well be an interesting prospect. The big question is, will there be interested parties this time around?
  7. F1 qualification it is. See you in the Championship. Love this making our own luck bed
