Think this tweet of Caulkin's is an even better response tbh. I know Delaney has had his views on SA long before this takeover kicked off but fucking hell, fans can't even have a drink to celebrate Ashley finally going?

This Chris is an outside the box kinda thinker. Get him on the board.

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. Utter tosh. It should be done by now.

Same. Also annoyed at

Look at me, look at me, its my Birthday. You're pathetic. Something about the addition of 'you're' to this joke makes it feel so much more cutting. HB tho mofo[/member]

10/20. Awful.

Man. This would've been a cracking excuse for a birthday bender if it wasn't a Monday.

31/35. So annoyed at the ones I missed.

I feel like reminding people it's been 13 years isn't going to calm the worriers down. I imagine the fact we've spent those 13 years being programmed to wait for takeovers to fail is precisely why they can't take the waiting.

Would love it if pricks like Redknapp were made to squirm and asked if they'd be happy to have Bruce take over their beloved clubs.

Fuck sake. Caulkin even manages to make me tolerate this cans nonsense. He's too good.

If we've got the spending power to go out and get Bale, I'd rather we didn't. I can't shake the fear that it'd be a pricier Owen.

Poch doesn't but I love when it pans to Jenas's grin.

That'd be fine and dandy if it wasn't done with all the vim and vigour of a sex pest who I wouldn't be surprised to discover needs to remain 30 feet away from Rafa by law.

The 6pm announcement to announce that it has been called off has been moved to Friday at 3pm? Do they people tweeting this stuff seriously expect people to believe it, or is it an attempt at satire? I don't think they care as long as they get the attention they crave. Unfortunately there's enough dense fuckers out there that happily oblige.

I like the fact that proviso has even had to be discussed. He's definitely in talks. I'm certainly reading too much in to it.

This reminds me; am I right in thinking there was a time he congratulated himself on a piece of transfer business? Found it. On the Cabella signing:

Maybe they are going to get Poch to announce it. This would be the most beautiful thing in the world if it's also how Bruce found out. Get him in on the Zoom chat just to see his reaction.

As someone who has Rafa top of his list, I'd still be over the moon with Poch and find it crazy how his achievements are starting to be talked down so much just because it didn't end with silverware. He's still relatively early in his managerial career, with only five years being at a club expected to win anything (and hasn't that club only managed two trophies in about 30 years themselves?). If we get him and he becomes a winner, cracking. If not, were we even expecting a trophy immediately? He can still be a great starting off point for us until we need someone to take us that extra step, if indeed that ends up being needed.

Pantomime villains.

Fucking hell how did I forget about Carver offering our fans out.
