    Every signing we’ve made since the takeover plenty of people on here have pissed and moaned about how the player was not good enough / too expensive / surplus to requirements in that position etc And so far the only one that didn’t do it on the pitch was Chris Wood, but he served a purpose, weakened Burnley and was moved on to Forest for a decent fee toot suite Conclusion: Lots of people on here actually know fuck all and the transfer team at NUFC know loads
  2. That’s the point he’s making £60 for a pipsqueak sized shirt and price doesn’t even include VAT

    My nanna would be an upgrade on MDubz
  4. They also filmed the Adidas promo at King St Clerb when we signed the deal Bruno was asking Fender “is this place a really famous venue for Geordies ?” For those that don’t know, the cricket bat off licence is just over the road from the clerb And the Seventeen Going Under video was filmed on the next street down from the cricket bat off licence And top house and techno DJ’s come from all over the UK to play the upstairs room at King St Clerb #keepitShields
  5. If Isak and the Doberman walk a few yards further along that path they get to the street where the Seventeen Going Under video was filmed Shields is basically Hollywood these days
  6. It's Heidi Curtis singing in the promo by the way. She's a North Shields lass
  7. 95% of under 30's who go to the match won't have a clue what that song in the promo is All they've ever heard is the 190BPM makina version being sung at warp speed with incorrect lyrics
  8. Queues round the block outside JD in The Bridges Shopping Centre SUNDERLAND HAS FALLEN I REPEAT SUNDERLAND HAS FALLEN Uncal Mick, Dave the Rave and Wee Phillie just been seen getting evacuated in a Huey that landed on the roof of The Wheatsheaf
  9. No. I'm not asking for a purity test. I don't even know what that means And of course we wouldn't care about tickets getting into the hands of genuine fans rather than touts / tourists / away fans if we didn't sell out every week That's like going into the kit thread and telling them they wouldn't feel the same way about Adidas designs if we were still with Castore
  10. Unlimited memberships available all season isn't a membership though. It's just an entry fee for accessing the ballot and resale I was in Lisbon recently when Sporting played Benfica. Top of the table local derby that would probably decide the title. I'd have loved to have gone and experienced that game Tickets only on sale to members. Memberships were still on sale and I would have bought one if it gave me a chance of getting a ticket But the restriction was that you had to have held a membership for 6 months to get a ticket for that game Was that frustrating for me ? Yes. But it meant as a tourist with no allegiance to Sporting I couldn't get a ticket and potentially deprive a genuine Sporting fan from getting to the game NUFC had none of that in place last season. Joao the Sporting fan visiting Newcastle for the weekend had just as much chance of a ticket as Joe the lifelong NUFC fan who applies for every game. As long as they were both willing to pay their £40 membership And the same principle applied to touts, away fans and anyone else who just fancied checking out a game. That's why we need some sort of restriction, not to limit tickets to a select few thousand members And I bought multiple tickets for every home game last season, so I'll be fine if they keep the same system. I don't have an agenda in trying to increase my chances
  11. you sell a “membership” that is really just a £40 tax to allow absolutely anyone (fan, tout, tourist who’s visiting the city, away fan etc) to join at any point in the season and to all have a completely equal chance of buying a ticket for any game in general sale for what reason exactly ?
  12. They could sell unlimited memberships June to end of July then close it. Open it again Dec to end of Jan for any more who want to sign up You don’t buy a membership in the windows then you miss out on going to games Won’t stop the touts, but might limit their interest in taking a punt Means we have a finite number of people able to buy tickets for each 1/2 of the season and club could be open about how many people hold memberships in that period Which allows the rest of us to have some sense as to what we’re up against in terms of membership numbers competing for tickets Offering unlimited memberships all season long isn’t a “membership” it’s just a general sale but with an entry fee to generate extra bunce for the club
  13. Ashley was the type of owner the Top 6 and Premier League love His stated aim was that we wouldn’t ever be competitive Determined to scrape by, doing the bare minimum, kowtowing to the Top 6, happy to take the telly cash and the free ads for his shitty stores THE CUNT
  14. Everything about FFP is designed to be a Catch 22 for anyone outside of the Top 6 To compete against the established Top 6 you need to have wealthy owners who can invest, for wealthy owners to be allowed to invest you need to increase your commercial revenue, but to increase your commercial revenue you need to be able to compete against the established Top 6, which you can't do unless your wealthy owners are allowed to invest
  15. Should have had DJ Fucking Otzi doing the turn at the poundshop Super Bowl
  16. If we were genuinely in for him and he’s decided he’d rather stay in West London and earn more money but in an overpaid bloated squad with a mentalist owner and unproven manager then that’s his prerogative, but I reckon he’s not the right sort of player for NUFC People need to want to come here for what’s happening on the pitch and being part of the evolution of this club
  17. Using a search agency is standard practice for Director level recruitment, regardless of industry NUFC will have specified their ideal candidate profile. Odgers will then put in the legwork to approach, attract and assess DoF’s Odgers should be liaising with NUFC throughout the process about who’s interested and who isn’t, who they rate and who they don’t Odgers then present the shortlist of the strongest candidates to NUFC and our Board start interviewing
  18. I’m more outraged about your incorrect use of we’re than I am about missing out on the Conference League
  19. Nah, I think you’ve completely misunderstood the situation His wages are £1m annually, that’s fuck all in football terms. Paully D earns more for doing nothing but train Man Utd and Ashworth have been exposed as snidey cunts and their new hire is stuck in limbo We’re demonstrating we won’t be taken the piss out of and are cracking on with recruitment of players and finding a replacement for the snidey cunt
  20. Boehly would pay £100m for Ashworth to play centre mid
  21. Pope may be a high quality keeper, but he’s had 2 x shoulder dislocations and that makes his future career look much more risky And we’ve seen how much damage it does having a fuckwit like MDubz in nets for most of the season Pope possibly won’t like the idea of us signing a top quality keeper, but he can’t argue with the logic
