So Bruce says he thinks suggestions we've been lucky this season is an insult to his players and without a hint of irony, in the next breath, he says he hasn't got the players to play the way he wants

Edwards will be crying into his Babycham tonight, massive bell end.

We're 1 lengthy injury for Dubravka from a free falling relegation fight, we're not out the woods yet. Unlikely at this point but if you think this season has been hoffic, you're in for a doozy next!

It was always known that they preferred Man Utd but were told not for sale. It’s been mentioned a few time’s so don’t see the exclusive there from the Mackem reporter. Not a mention of their human rights issues when manure get involved huh?

10-1 EVERYFUCKINGONE JOELINTON

We could have bought 3 new strikers in the window and none of them would score with this team/formation/tactics, absolutely horrific.

I work most Saturdays so miss a lot of matches these days, however I have unfathomably decided to put this on whilst I work this week.... What is wrong with me? What an horrific 45 minutes of Brewcieball

Had his best games under Rafa, was only going one way once the oaf came in. Thanks Ki and good luck!

What if he got injured though? That would be a waste of money. Bruce should have bought him with his own money tbf

Bowen didn't even go for £20m, it's £14m up front with add ons, plus he wanted to come to us, just more lies not to spend.

Amazing how all this fit and proper, whitewashing, sportswashing, irreprehensible acts come to light when little old Newcastle get a chance to play with the big boys again. I'm not condoning anything but the hypocrisy is palpable.

If he can regain some of his old form then it's a good deal, but he's not shown anything in the last 1-2 years to suggest he's anything but past it.

Nothing to do with an easy draw facilitating an agenda to keep fans on side at all. Brewcies ambitions are what he's told they are.

You'd like to think so but I'm afraid you're underestimating the stupidity that flows in the walls of SJP right now.

Hope for the best, expect the worst, don't listen to British media itks. If it goes tits up we'll hear about it soon enough

Got to agree, the worse thing to happen in all of this is for our gutter press to get hold of it and start speculating/lying. The first report was the only one that had any facts in its everyone else is putting 2 and 2 together to make £340m. Until/unless there is an official announcement on anything it's best just to ignore these itk red top goons and anything else that appears on the twitterverse.

Plot twist, Ashley is the Architect.

Fwiw Grim Ryder literally just tweeted that Danny Rose has just arrived at St James' to complete his deal, could well be linked?

As much as I expect this to affect some people, this is nothing but virtue signalling from TF who are desperate to be seen as the real voice of supporters. Whatever happened to support the team, not the regime, does that suddenly change when your agenda does?

It’s when you see on social media the people who still go criticising it. If they didn’t go he’d be more likely to sell without the need for such statements. You know it's the same fuckers who "support da teem, not da regime" and belittle any effort to get rid of Ashley whilst also stating they want him gone but no one will stop them going to watch their team. The same tools that sing "Brewcie gizza wave", boo Jolinton and Perez but sit in silence when Ashley attends his first game in a year. Then have the audacity to scoff at any attempt to protest, whatever the form, Neanderthals.

I get the sentiment of the statement, but it's futile, Ashley knows most supporters want him gone, the statement is moot. What should have been put out there or should be put out there if he stays is an intent to starve the club of support and most importantly money. Supporters need to make a stand once and for all if he stays, this has to be proof that continuing to line his pockets will not see him "eventually sell anyway". A continued and relentless boycott has to be the last and only option to forcibly remove him, not more excuses to line his pockets.

Came across this during a dull day at work, this is an insane goal:

lol true. I think people use the fakeover term broadly. Some people think it is all bullshit and the buyers either don't really exist or are just playing along (hopefully this is a minority of people) others think that its real but Ashley will just not accept anyway. I believe it is real, he will sell but wants to sell and keep his cake. This is the major stumbling block, it has to be, it's got to a point where he'll either insist on retaining some kind of advertising/merchandising rights or insist on a further balloon payment to remove the 9999999 year contract he gave to SD.

Apparently we're doing better with Bruce. Can these utter morons not see how lucky we have been this season? Proper short sighted twats. I saw a lot of this on FB yesterday, how Rafa was too negative and Bruce has proven he deserves a chance, has got the team playing well considering all the injury issues, etc... there's definitley gonna be hell on in some quarters if the foreigner replaces the geordie. Good, I hope they boycott and allow the real supporters to go back
