  1. Yeah, you're not likely to get info like that in written form. Ha. I’ll ask them on the phone tomorrow. Request was more tongue in cheek as been talking to the guys there for last 12 weeks
  2. Been watching this thread for an age and it’s meandered so much I’m going to bowl in with some thoughts and stories of zero value... I went to league cup final last year and was sat with a group i didn’t know. One was a lawyer (firm I forget) who was insistent there was any number of bids that had been made for us and Ashley messed them all around to the extent no one in Middle East would touch him with a shitty stick. The one he had got close with was two Kuwaiti brothers who fell out midway through due to Ashley being awkward! To make this more relevant, once I finished that convo I started talking to the girl on my right. She was lovely and mentioned she was into singing and acting. Then mentioned she used to be married to Mark Bright and was friends with Les Ferdinand. It was only after I’d left I googled and found out it was 90s Eastenders favourite Michelle Gayle. Re Pinsent Masons. Working on them on a property deal at the mo (they represent the whole Portman Estate). Literally ignored my email entirely asking if they had any info on a Newcastle takeover. I sincerely hope I’m wrong Odin, but the idea that anyone from a law firm gave you any insight on this seems so unlikely. My missus worked on a takeover while working at Lazard and she wouldn’t tell me the companies involved until it completed and was made public.
  3. Normally follow every game on here as I watch but tonight just watched and actually thought we played pretty well against a decent arsenal team.

    https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/looks-like-ndong-may-have-found-himself-a-club.1456252/page-2 Topic moved to Borini... Lovely fans.
  5. BBC world just said manager is being reported as being aboard too. Not seen anywhere else so repeated with scepticism
  6. SD’s stock price would be affected if his investors pared their holdings. Explains why he was stood outside Odey's the other day - firefighting after sales from one of their biggest shareholders...
  7. Knocking around on the corner of Park St and Upper Grosvenor St in London about 30 mins ago, shit eating grin on his face with barely a care in the world. Definitely not on holiday for once.

    Transfer rumours

    The keeper must be a permanent deal as we can only sign 2 players (Slimani, Kenedy) on loan, no?
  10. Definitely a new company linked to Staveley when you look at other companies that have been registered to the same address: https://suite.endole.co.uk/explorer/postcode/w1k-7ae About thirty seconds from my office. Going to start hanging around outside on lunch

    Pretty weird that your name is the twitter handle of an obscure rock band formed in 2010 by the mackem in YCNI:M and The Automatic...
  14. I fucking hate the guy, but having sadly squandered several hours watching select committee 'performances', this is actually one of the better ones. His stupidity can easily be mistaken for honesty and the committee are going easy on him because he is admitting a degree of liability. Normally you get people desperately trying to avoid the question and change the angle to put out their agenda, which results in those questioning being far harsher. All that said, I've only watched the last 20 minutes or so, may have been a car crash before that.
  15. Can someone ensure that rtg see that Liam's little brother has posted on the donations page asking for them to attend on Monday.

    All seems rather dramatic to me. I'll wager any one of the doom mongers on here £50 to the SBR foundation we spend several million pounds on a striker this window. For all Ashley's PR disasters we have had 3 successful seasons on the pitch on the trot (defined in the respect that we would taken the outcome had we been offered it before a ball had been kicked on each occasion). This season has gone tits up but there is plenty still to play for, our squad has players coming back and the fixture list is looking kinder. Ashley knows the only way we maintain any value is by maintaining our PL status ahead of the new tv deal and by keeping the gates where they are now. He spent more than most in jan in the championship and again last year. The only time we have been net sellers in jan was the relegation year which would have burned him and the sale of Andy Carroll which was absolutely an exception that he rightly couldn't resist. I dislike him as much as the next fan but my read is that since his initial series of clusterfucks he has irritatingly got things right more often than wrong. I don't think this is entirely down to luck, although admittedly some huge slices fell our way prior to this season. So, money where mouth is, £50 to SBR foundation if you think we won't get a striker this January. Happy to take bet from up to 5 people so will lay £250 that we do. Lets see if you naysayers really believe your negative hype

    Joey Barton

    Way out of his depth but was hugely led. It's no David James getting merked sadly
  18. Thank Christ most Liverpool fans aren't like you... Would be nowhere near this much fun
  19. May have been posted already, apologies if so, but thought this was great from the Leeds fans last night, around 3 minutes or so when it just becomes a wall of noise. Wondering if this is where the scarves idea has been picked up from, would certainly be pretty spine tingling hearing the whole of St James' Park like this, scarves or not... http://www.101greatgoals.com/videodisplay/leeds-fans-gary-speed-chant-%28taken-from-the-forest-end%29-15755497/ (assuming this type of video doesn't breach rules, apologies if so)
  20. I'd just like to say for the record, the thread title was edited to that by me because at the time the news broke most people were unaware of the circumstances of his death. No disrespect was intended and I apologise if anyone found it offensive. Don't think anyone thought any different. Was right title at time and was then the right time to change. Still struggling with this, just does not compute
  21. Aye. It's known as a Tory government. Better than being date raped by nu labour
  22. Thats the rub of it, even the scouser i work with says the players were a disgrace toward the end of Roys job there, he reckoned Roy lost the players but not so sure myself. To be honest, for all the league position chat over what is and isn't realistic, all I really want is to finish above these cunts. Makes me small time, bitter and probably over ambitious and unrealistic, but it'd be fucking ace
  23. Very true, my interest was piqued by the hypothetical rather than ranger. I genuinely do think most people have had a scrap at some point in their teens or so when they have technically assaulted someone or committed abh by the very strict definition, or had it happen to them. Seems I'm possibly wrong and for the record this isn't an attempt to be the hardman as it were, I've taken the hiding rather than dished it out!
  24. Ranger didn't break the lads jaw. Ah, my mistake. Sure the press had it as that originally? Should have got wireside on the case?
  25. I don't think 95% on here have knocked someone unconscious and broke their jaw though. That said, pretty similar to what Carroll did to one of our own and we cheered him and sang songs about it
