Because I have no reason not to. If a bunch of angry mongs circlejerking on a message board, repeating their conspiracy theories and posting a bunch of bullshit is enough to sway you then so be it. But the facts and situation is hardly as black and white as some on this board would have you believe. Not basing my opinion on internet bullshit. The single worst factor for me was him not personally coming back to sort out this whole mess. Just sent totally the wrong message out to me What's your views on Keegan's use of lawyers and the LMA to sort out this whole mess? Keegan is bound to need some support in this whole mess so I have no issue with it. All the clubs statements will have been pub;ished after consultations with their lawyers. Unless I missed something, he has only said brief statements about why he left. But this isnt about Keegan. its about what Ashley has done to make people trust and believe inhim So one person's use of intermediaries is fine, but another's isn't? Not quite sure your going with this mate but at least we heard from Kevin's intermediaries when it broke. You dont think it required Mike Ashley's presence when it all kicked off ?

Still waiting for the sneerers to list their reasons for trusting and believing him...

Still waiting for answers.. I believe and trust him because ........ Just had sneers so far EDIT : I did trust him until this statement today. Its just way too soppy and contradicts the thick-skinned businessman persona he seems to have.. and must have to have had the success he has had so far. I think I would have had more respect if he had just said "Ah bollocks I have had enough"

hows that ? Have you not saw that episode of Only Fools when they all chip in to buy those gold chains? Fucking Hell Tooj. you read my mind

He's winding us up man. No way would he come back

Meh. I need details before I exclaim it happy days. I need guarantees of : European Football every year Attacking exciting football every week BIG money signings before I get excited

The way I heard it is that these were very recent events Fucking hell. Our ex Chairmans communication with the fans is shite !

Bollocks. Cant get to it. Whats he saying

No one was told about whatthe dispute was about so the bunch of people had to make up their own minds. So they decided to side with the man they knew and trusted more.

Shite few days there mate but congratulations on the new job

They werent happy with Ashley's choice of directors and their relative rolespower within the club. I do believe that one the whole, Ashley was popular.

The main difference is that Keegan can walk away and get on with his life, Ashley's still here until someone buys him out. I believe this will hurt Keegan until the day that he dies. Once Ashley sells up, he moves on and spends his millions elsewhere and cares not a jot about Newcastle United.

This is what makes this all the more intruiging. I cant believe that Mike Ashley is selling because the mongs have been singing and chanting at him. If only he had opened up some dialogue with a set of fans who can communicate the concerns to him, he could so easily have worked around it.

Anyone remember when the first stories starting coming out about Ashley wanting to sell up ?

Reasons for not talking to the media about transfers : fear of other clubs scuppering the deal, minimising the papers releasing incorrect rumour about potential salary requests, transfer fees. Reasons for talking to the fans : allowing them an insight into THEIR club and to what is happening at a time of great chaos The 2 forms of communications are totally different. They got one right (silence on the transfers), they got the other horribly wrong. wouldn't they just be accused of spinning their side of the story ?. If they had done it early enough, it would give them a chance to get a greater percentage of the fans on their side. There are a fair few on here see KK as the main reason for the upheaval; the club could had had even greater support by opening up a bit more. They could have given a lot more fans a chance to question Kevins actions.

So long as they're not cockanese, eh? Oh jesus can we lock this thread now

Makes me feel suspiscous. Why the statement now and nothing before. Sounds too calculated to me. I would love know how long this statement has been planned for. Just not possible that it was done because of a "Cockney Mafia Out" banner

List them. You just beat me to it Mick That line is bullshit peddled by the media.

Because he was trying his hardest to make things work and to make the fans happy? My guess is that they have been working on the correct wording of that statement since last week. They aint done that since last night

If Ashley had tried to speak to the fans he so enjoyed sitting amongst, he would have discovered that they arent all like the idiots in front of the SSN cameras and he might have understood what our true concerns are.

Lets stage more demonstrations to get him to stay and have loads of banners saying "We dont want you to leave man. Your not a cockney. We meant Wise and Llambias. We love you Mike"
