Robster

So many people laughed at the thought of him going to Celtic For me, it makes sense that Ashley is using the sale of the club as one last act of vengance against the fans by hanging out to dry, the manager we all want to stay.

An internet full of porn and you want to see THAT ?

I think the CL winners will take up space for the next few days. After that, we'll be perfect filler for them so we could hear all sorts of things.

There is an 'ignore' function. Use it folks, if you feel the need.

Lovely photo.

Are we being bought by Westlife ?

I'm of the opinion that something very real is going on. However, I'm still expecting another drunk phone call to David Craig at the 11th hour, calling it all off.

Ashley isn't pissed enough tonight, clearly.

Aye, $11 Million is a bit shit

I don't think he wanted proof of payment but wanted a huge down payment/deposit before anyone could get close.

Ashley didn't do due diligence when he bought us. He can't be arsed to do things properly. He's just a chancer.

Be wary of this hope. As has been said many times previously, I wouldn't put it past MA to insist they stay up as part of the deal.

It’s an entirely fair assessment. We should all get drunk silly celebrating Ashley’s departure, but probably not realistic to expect a PSG-like windfall on top of that. Which is fine. I don’t care about winning the league or even making the CL. A club that tries will suffice. 100% agree with this.

It's down to Rafa and Rafa alone that we have any connection to the community at all. Ashley has done nothing but damage the relationship between the club and the local area since he's been here.

This fucking weekend

Turning into such a bizarre day.

at that 'lawyer' tweet. FFS.

The latter. How can a respected Dubai based journo with links to the royal family and 400k Twitter followers not be deemed credible? Richard Keys has 259K followers

Could also conceivably mean that it's all fallen through and it's dead in the water. howay robster lad posted a tweet one before that saying welcome to newcastle I can only ever be cynical where Mike Ashley is involved.

TV Sports Presenter. Like Richard Keys

It feels like he draws in genuine interest, knowing full well that at the 11th hour, he'll find a way to make the deal fall through.

Mike Ashley is involved. He can put a new obstacle up at any point.

Goodbye Rafa. Best of luck in the future.

Completely agree. It's comical how they suddenly all know what is happening.
