To think Ryder wrote an article yesterday pre match claiming we have got the old Andy Carroll back... Hasn’t scored a goal for the club in nearly a decade and not even came close to doing so since.

Went from a manager with a plan every week, might not have been pretty but we were never out of a game to this complete fucking dosser. Told myself I don’t care anymore, but my blood boils every time I see the Dinner lady prick on the tele giving his sob story whilst his media pals lick his arse.

Could go on until next Sunday and we won’t score.

Bruce has the easiest job in football. No pressure from the top and no fans in the ground to give him shit. Fucking joker.

This is standard until Bruce fucks off. Sadly I get the impression he’s here for years.

So much for “the Premier League were about to pass it but Ashley started playing games...” Would love to see PCP and co own the club one day but sadly think it’s dead in the water. Hopefully Masters and Keys’ mate resign on the back of this mess at the least. Scumbags.

No point having decent players when we have the fat Doubtfire stinking the gaff out on the touch line.

If this is the end of it all then what an anti climax, what was the point of whipping the fans into a frenzy?

Mackemesque bitterness.

Wraith gets right on my tits, like. Don’t understand why people hang off anything he says.

The folk of Twitter are now spamming the sponsors of the PL with their messages about corruption etc, TAG Heuer are even hiding some of the replied.

Yeah, I think the PL have got themselves into a real shitshow and wish the whole thing just didn't exist. They've obviously got themselves a cartel of powerful opponents to the takeover (the chosen few PL clubs, Qatar via BeIN Sports, others with an axe to grind) who they really don't want to put offside - if these interests weren't applying extraordinary pressure on the PL then the takeover would likely have been approved within the aforementioned 4-5 weeks. I doubt if they are worried about getting sued by those who want to stop the takeover, but they obviously risk commercial arrangements (with the likes of BeIN) and risk a potential revolt from those leading PL clubs (who they may fear leaving the PL to form a new European super league). But, whilst the PL may wish to bow to those powerful interests (forcing the takeover to not happen) they don't have a clear (or even token) set of criteria against which they can justify stopping the takeover, meaning if they do they know they will get sued into oblivion. They can't afford to define a specific reason for rejecting the takeover because that will give Ashley and the buying consortium a tangible thing to sue the PL over (because it will very obviously be a justification that won't stand up in court). This leaves the PL under the impression they are in an impossible position - but, the problem they have not reconciled themselves to is that, laws (in this case mostly commercial law, but likely some regulatory laws too) trump other commercial risks. If/when the PL are forced to say "rejected" and forced to give a reason then they risk a substantial lawsuit from Mike Ashley, the buying consortium, and potentially other interests who stand to lose from the takeover not happening (e.g. Newcastle City Council, Reubens, others). Even if the PL decides that the potential lawsuit is going to cost them less than the cost of pissing off BeIN Sport (Qatar) or the preferred clubs, the lawsuit could still cause the PL to go bankrupt because the amounts of money are so huge. The PL have only got themselves to blame for this - it is through their negligence and incompetence that they did not anticipate the consequences of the ODT (as it is written) and did not properly manage the process from the beginning. They also failed to hold other clubs, those that were purchased prior to the current ODT, to the same standard - and courts take a dim view of hypocrisy. They stuck their heads in the sand, probably assuming that fat-Mike would screw up the deal and they wouldn't have to worry about it, and know they're royally fecked! In reality what they need to do is accept their medicine, approve the takeover, and then pucker up to kiss the arses of BeIN and the lead PL clubs for the next decade by way of apology. That is the only way they save this - otherwise they may cause the whole Premier League to collapse. They've screwed this up so bad they may cause the league itself to cease to exist (due to lawsuits, loss of lead clubs, loss of sponsors, loss of broadcasting revenues). This post excites me. If we can’t have our takeover then I hope the PL suffer big time.

I hope that this pressure we are applying as a fan base doesn’t blow over when Bruce starts signing players and talks about moving on. Personally I won’t watch another match, literally couldn’t stomach it. NUFC or not.

Don’t understand why Stavely’s fella is tweeting that randomly...

I wonder how many of them are slaughtering us for valid reasons..... Couldn’t give a fuck either way really.

Nearly 80k have signed that petition now, class that.

Undercover Mackem!

Why are my hopes up again man? Don’t want to feel as low as I did last Thursday, easily the lowest I’ve ever felt as an NUFC fan (too young for 96).

These lot sit on their arses and do nowt to get rid of their owners yet this will be their 3rd takeover since Ashley bought us.

I know it’s been said but fucking crazy how every party involved in this takeover wants it to go through, but the PL won’t allow it. Ashley, PCP, Reubens, PIF and the fans/city all want it.

That bloke outside the Premier League HQ is some boy. Would love it if there was a good few hundred causing havoc, shame it’s so far away.

Aye - check your spam folder.

How great would it be if someone high profile like Shearer came out and criticised the PL? Sadly seems like all our ex players and managers etc don’t have the balls.

Two things guaranteed in a Bruce interview. 1. “Dust ourselves down” 2. Always interrupts the interview, basically every question. Prick.
