Even admitting to needing to take the test would imply he's a controlling interest though, and that PIF are closer to the Saudi state than they want to admit. I think that's the main reason it's a non-starter.

It’s all on ASM I wouldn't be that surprised if he never plays for us again.

I don't have any league position expectation or ambition at all. I just don't want my club to be terminally pointless and my team utter garbage.

Happens in the highest echelons of life - politics, sport, the arts. That mask has slipped royally (let’s throw them in n all) in recent years more starkly. Chumocracy is it? I think the PFM thing is nearly over TBH, we’re just unlucky we have a clueless owner. Unless you count people like Lampard as a new generation I guess. That remains to be seen.

He’s a published author you cheeky bastard.

TBF we did know it would be difficult, Steve Bruce is our manager.

He’s already fluked more than one game, give him some credit.

Oh sure.

TBF he is right on those.

I think a point a game will see you well clear, no longer confident we’ll get that many though.

At the moment, look again in a month or so.

Yeah, he’s a substitute for tactics.

Crazy decision really. I guess before covid he would at least have had 50k fans to play for.

He wasn’t even swiping the ball, he was fighting Sharp off.

If Carroll hadn’t played 110 mins I was thinking he might have started.

He’s starting to look annoyed now. No idea what we told him to get him to sign.

Not sure Shearer counts as a good appointment, as much as I like the man.

Yeah, after the next 2-3 is when it gets dicey. Even then we’ll be around a point a game, which is survival pace still.

He’s from Wallsend , I’m from Wallsend That’s nice.

Depends if you’re asking Mike Ashley.

Shame he’s not getting more playing time.

If he was a Newcastle fan he wouldn’t have taken the job.

We'll fluke a few. Do you still think this? I though we would, but seems like even Wilson has been Bruced. We have a head start, but the whiff of a relegation team is definitely starting to be smelled.

Weirdly reminiscent of Big Sam playing for a draw against Derby. Sheffield are much better I guess.

Yeah, I thought we’d eventually fluke our way to 35-38 points, not so sure now. Even Wilson looks done for.
