Like this bit All true but like I said in another thread, he shares a house in Ghana with his best mate John Mensah, who loves it here, maybe he has played matchmaker with Adebayor and Quinny?

  10. Liverpool v Atletico Madrid: Rafael Benitez calls for major squad overhaul Rafael Benitez believes Liverpool must now turn their attention to a major rebuilding job this summer after their season was all but ended by their heartbreaking elimination by Atletico Madrid at the semi-final stage of the Europa League. By Rory Smith Published: 7:00AM BST 30 Apr 2010 Liverpool v Atletico Madrid: Rafael Benitez calls for major squad overhaul Down and out: Liverpool have not been good enough this season Photo: AP Alberto Aquilani’s second goal for the club cancelled out the Spanish side’s first-leg lead, taking the tie into extra-time, but despite extending their advantage through Yossi Benayoun, Benitez’s team could not find a third after former Manchester United forward Diego Forlan’s strike. Though the Spaniard insisted after the game that Liverpool’s future extends no further than their two remaining Premier League games as they attempt to retain their Champions League place, he admitted the club’s squad needs a major overhaul if the disappointments of this campaign are not to be repeated. “Two or three of the players have said we need three, four or five more,” said the Liverpool manager, “and I agree with them. The goal we conceded here sums up the season, you could say that. It has been one of those seasons where everything has gone against us, though the players could be very proud [against Atletico] because they were working so hard. “But this season has not been good enough. Every team can have a bad season, but now we just have to finish it in the right way over the next two games and then prepare for next year. “I do not think that going out tonight will change whether we can attract players. This is a massive club, we will try to do our best and the name of the club will still be here, and that will not change.” The Spaniard was unable to confirm whether the funds required for that sort of investment - he has previously indicated he would need around £60 million to acquire the players he believes he needs - would be forthcoming, with Liverpool’s financial future still uncertain. “Things have changed in the past,” he said, “and we had to be a company, to balance the books and to manage in this way. I do not know what will happen in the summer.” Much the same could be said for his own tenure. Asked whether he could guarantee whether he would be at Anfield to spend whatever money is found with which to rebuild the squad, he simply replied: “The future is Chelsea. And after that? Hull.”

  12. Did the trip by coach as well but no hotel, just overnight on the coach and ferry, got there about 11 am. Locals were great, had a few drinks in the bar at the ground during the day swapping songs and scarves with the Metz fans. Well pissed for the game and the coach trip back was neverending. Swore I would always fly after that trip.

    How about making a Mike Ashley voodoo doll to kick to fuck, string up from lamposts or set fire to outside the ground? The Newcastle Online shop could make enough to run the site for years.
  14. On the 2million clause In view of the near impossibility of estimating precisely what his loss would be, we consider such an approach to be reasonable and to represent a reasonable pre-estimate of his loss to the extent that it was possible to carry out this exercise at all. It follows that, in our judgment, Clause 14.8.1 does not amount to a penalty clause. We note, although we do not base our conclusion on this, that when cross-examined, Mr Keegan very fairly accepted that Clause 14.8.1 was fair and reasonable.

    More tripe. You should be careful what you post on an open forum. Do you have any evidence to support this allegation? I really do hope you have, or that KK and any of his representatives aren't reading it. Think its from the Guardian article Dave posted earlier "Barclays generally stipulates that Championship clubs cannot have overdrafts in excess of £10m but Newcastle's previous facility, which expired at the end of last month, was for £39m with the club owing around £20m. They may also be forced to part with as much as £10m should Keegan win his impending constructive-dismissal case."
  20. KK was in charge ; ) not so sure Shearer played for us then either. might be wrong on that like. No it was Dalglish. Was at the game Shearer was crocked. Bartez in goal for them wasted time like fuck.

    It comes up with a company at the same address as Halliwells the lawyers representing the americans. What the f*** that means I have no idea So it does, looks like I might have been on the right lines after all! HALLCO 1707 LIMITED registered company name @ companies house..... Halliwells... could this be a holding company for the funds to be deposited into? however can they not just be deposited into a lawyers account? also, this company was incorporated in June, seems a bit early Agreed, that's why I originally discounted it. Was looking for "the holy grail" of a newly set up holding company with a cheeky Newcastle related name. Dont firms of solicitors set up a lot of these off the peg companies then use them when needed to save time? Somebody working in this sort of thing would propably know

    CHARLES SALE: Americans aim to scupper Barry Moat's Newcastle bid Last updated at 12:16 AM on 12th September 2009 * Comments (0) * Add to My Stories The marathon takeover saga at Newcastle took another twist on Friday night with a New York investment fund dealing direct with owner Mike Ashley in an attempt to fast-track the sale of the club. It has been claimed their negotiations had reached the stage of a sale and purchase agreement with the Americans, having satisfied Ashley they have the necessary £100million funding to complete the deal. Newcastle United owner Mike Ashley in the stands with Chairman Derek Llambias But the situation — as ever during Ashley’s regime — is by no means clear as the Americans, represented by Manchester law firm Halliwells, are bypassing the official selling agents Seymour Pierce and conducting their business with Ashley’s London legal advisers Travers Smith. The middle man in the deal is businessman Geoff Sheard, a former commercial director at Preston, who has kept in the background to avoid any publicity after an attempt to buy Sheffield Wednesday proved unsuccessful. Stockbrokers Seymour Pierce don’t regard Sheard as a serious buyer, having not been satisfied with his proof of funding. But a spokesperson for Ashley said last night that Sheard’s consortium were being treated as genuine buyers, yet had ground to make up on Newcastle businessman Barry Moat’s bid.
