I would imagine Sky would have sent a one word reply . . . Where?

You know, I have always felt that "Fawlty Towers" was my favourite long-lasting sit-com of all time. No more !!! The "Sunderland Fans" sit-com (though more of a Tragi-Sit-Com) has now replaced it, and the best thing about it is that it will now last . . FOR EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!

Wish people would stop using those words, they have no basis in reality, in any reality under any circumstances. P I F are in it as our part-owners for the long haul, and they will never accept the idea of aiming to finish 2nd in anything, ever. They want to get this 'daft early stage' with us over with - asap.

Pretty much what was planned in 1997 . . .

This club is no longer any players "shop window" !!!
-
It is great to have owners of NUFC who care, and show they care. Over the next few years they will undoubtedly show that care even more !!!
-
You only have one life you know . . did you know that? To waste it writing such genuine rubbish is a real shame. You could not possibly be more wrong about anything than you are in every sentence of what you have written here.
-
How sad it is to read comments like that. I know opinions differ on things, but that collection of words is so wrong.
-
That is fantastic, TRULY fantastic, an absolutely perfect combination of two "failed" businesses. I'll say it again, It is absolutely P E R F E C T . . . both of them are not quite out of business yet, but it can't be long !! I reckon Teesside Airport will GO first. Two classic business failures !!!!!
-
I still keep reading stuff like that! I know footballers are (said to be) not very bright, but I actually do think that a reasonable percentage of them are bright enough to be able to see 'beyond the next pay packet' and are able to work out that in the near future there isn't going to be anywhere better to be than at Newcastle United - no matter what happens at the end of this season.
-
ALL objectives are words, that is how they are set and explained. Achieving objectives (not what is being talked about here for obvious reasons) takes time. As with any new business, 'ballpark expenditure' is a somewhat flexible thing, rarely ever remotely adhered to, and in this case those figures were only given to satisfy some very particular ears!
-
I think they have been quite clearly explained by the new owners. Apart from the fact that it is also quite obvious, even if they hadn't already explained them.
-
It is EXACTLY like those !!! I understand that our new owners intend to operate less frantically at first, at least partially because of the much stronger FFP rules that are now in place. But in every other way - principally in the 'aims and objectives' of our new owners - it is exactly the same as Chelsea, Man City and PSG.

It was absolutely no different - no less intense - for ANY generation of Newcastle United supporters who experienced that era, and the shortly afterward Sir Bobby Robson era. No difference at all.
-
Yes indeed . . .
-
Sorry, I make my own judgements in life. Other peoples opinions (whether 'global' or not) are indeed of interest to me, but they rarely play a major part in how I make my own judgements.
-
As we experienced during the long takeover process, it is possible to remove "possibility" from the equation based on a knowledge and understanding of the calibre of those involved. It is exactly the same here, indeed it is actually about those 'exact same' people !!!
-
Never done that in my life, not going to start now. Sorry!
-
We will, of course, be having a huge say in what happens in our game, in our league. Not all powerful forces in the world are (what you describe as) "cunts". It is not automatic.
-
The way you phrase things reveals how you must think. The use of the phrase "gloss over" is simply not relevant to, or descriptive of, the actual facts of the situation you are meant to be describing. Where do you get these thoughts (and phrases) from? I shouldn't react to it !!!!!
-
We will NEVER be one of the 'cunts' - Triffic !!!! Other than 'in your head' I suppose, because you must want us to be cunts. "Cunts" are people who are a certain type, and behave in a certain way. I do not ever see Staveley/Reubens/PIF ever wanting to be be "Cunts" . . . it isn't automatic you know. Our club will not, can not, be "cunts", but we will PUNCTURE the egos of a lot of "cunts".
-
It will not change immediately, but the most delightful thing about our takeover is that WE will change that around completely, in due course. YES, the sheer certainty of that happening (and it being US that do it) is the best thing about it !!!! HAPPY DAYS . . .

Not sure about 'matching' Spurs and Arsenal, we were well ahead of them, and by now we would/should have been a very long way ahead of them . . .
