Ha ha! No! Just seen the score. Predictable. Should start betting on Sunderland 1-1 every weekend.. That must have been 50% of their results in league one Apparently 31 of their last 56 games have ended 1-1.

I used to take notice of their games but genuinely didn't know they were playing tonight. Just checked and seen they drew 1-1 with Fleetwood Town

His time isn't limited though. He's simply following Ashley's remit of keeping us out of the bottom 3. As long as we are 17th or above he's in no real danger.

A lot of players used to do that. David Kelly definitely did. Remember reading about it in one of the match programmes when he played for us.

Tbf there hasn't been that many top jobs come up since he was sacked by Spurs. Barca seemed adamant they were going for Koeman and he was never going to Arsenal from Spurs.

Really dislike the bloke. Didn't bother watching that but speaking to people who did and also seeing the comments on social media it sounds like it was a s bad as usual. If I was as emotionally invested in the football club as I used to be I would have walked along to the training ground by now to give him a load of shit at the gate! I remember i made it into the Chronicle for losing my shit with Carver a few years ago

I respect the opinions, and the confidence, of those thinking it'll go through but my thoughts haven't changed since news of the takeover first broke which what feels like a lifetime away now and that there's not a hope in hells chance of it happening. I've come to terms with it and the Premier League is almost out of my life now. No longer have Sky or BT and I've watched 2 live games from that league all season (1 involving NUFC). Still watch football from other countries on my IPTV as it will always be my favourite sport but I'm happy I've been able to more or less wash my hands of the Professional game in England now. Once the Premier League push through this Big 6 project I'd like to think that 1000s more fans from around the country will end up doing the same.

Such a talent! He could have had an incredible career here if only he'd been managed properly. I don't doubt he would have been hard to handle, but the best players usually are. Just unlucky for him that the 2 managers he had in England were Alan Pardew and Steve Bruce. We're already seeing the negative impact Bruce is having on ASM, the nearest type of player we currently have to HBA.

I've noticed the Newcastle Consortium supporters group have had their twitter account suspended today.

He doesn't. He's basically a troll with a blue tick.

That’s not how rules and laws work. That's how it worked last time. They didn't have cause to reject it then but they did, like I said they would. Let's see how it plays out but I'm certainly not getting my hopes up. And they didn’t reject it. They stalled and stalled and that’s why they are heading to court They made it perfectly clear they were never going to accept it either. Hopefully the threat of exposing some serious corruption might force their hand, but even then I'm not sure it will.

Hope people aren't getting their hopes built up to be left disappointed. Ultimately the Premier League don't want the PIF to take over NUFC, for reasons we are all now aware of and the facts are it's their league and they decide on the runners and the riders. That's why it never went through in the first place.

Best of luck Greg. A successful, well coordinated Trust is in the best interests of every NUFC fan.

It's true. He admitted he didn't like football. It was simply a job to him.

Scrap Internationals. Nobody really cares about them anyway.

Don't blame him one bit. Why would any flair player want to play for Steve Bruce when his teams hardly have the ball? He's already nullified ASMs threat by totally changing his position and role in the team. He's absolutely clueless.

Agree with this. Every game is basically must win for both the Old Firm, they can't afford any slip ups really. I'm no lover of either as I've always followed Aberdeen but when you also look at Rangers performances in Europe under Gerrard they've been outstanding. Hopefully Aberdeen can put a dent in their title ambitions on Sunday.

He's a Yes man though and that's always been an important trait to have if you want to be England manager. He wasn't given the job based on the incredible job he'd done as a manager previous.

I don't, that's how he makes his money. Just a big coincidence that all this happens and he's already got Amazon Prime on board for a documentary about it. He’s not too bad a bloke , and heart is in the right places although a massive self promoter and wants the publicity really Met him once in the Walls End pub when he was doing a talk in with John Beresford and Steve Howey. Had a bit crack with him afterwards, mainly bitching about Mike Ashley, and found him a really decent bloke, which surprised me as that's not always how he comes across on Social Media.

Pretty much this. If there's the chance of an earner Wraith will be all over it.

I’d lose, he’d bore me to death. Anyway... #soon Oh the irony :lol:

Keep up the great work Greg[/member] and NUST And ignore the haters, fucking idiots! People have the right to question the Trust in the correct way without you labelling them as idiots, especially considering it's a straight toss up between you and Samptime for the boards biggest idiot of the year, his constant, pathetic defence of Bruce and you pretending to be some sort of ITK, telling all and sundry the takeover was 100% going ahead for months on end. My personal view on the Trust, as a former member is that they tend to make loads of noise and bluster when an opportunity arises to really get the fans charged up about something. Last year it was Rafa leaving. They bombarded twitter with a huge recruitment drive, added a few thousand extra members then went very quiet. Repeat this year with the takeover talk. Loads of noise in the spring time, another big recruitment drive, then quiet again. They’ve done some good things, no doubt. Getting those lads off the charges for the carry on at Southampton was admirable but as the biggest football supporters Trust in the UK (?) they don't pull their weight enough on other pressing issues and they go too quiet for too long at times. Their questioning of Masters was weak and didn't really put him under any scrutiny when everyone knew he was up to no good, obviously moreso since then with the current big 6 of the 2 Manchester teams, 3 major London teams and Liverpool wanting a control of English football his motives are apparent. As for the money in their bank account. I remember a lot of noise from quite a lot of people to donate a share of it to the Food Bank to help out families who've fallen on hard times this year, rather than sitting in an account earning jack shit in interest but they didn't want to know. Should have been put to a vote amongst it's members imo, it's their money after all really. Anyway ultimately we all want the same thing so I hope they can be a success in the name of NUFC, but I'll admit, based on what I've seen so far, I am sceptical. I'll not post about them anymore on this thread as the NUST have their own thread on hear so this conversation should really be on there. You’re one of he biggest numpties on here man I've got an awful long way to go before I can even get close to your level of cringe lad. You’re a boring poster and a numpty man. And I’d tell you to your face as long as it’s 3.00pm on a Friday afternoon, any Friday. Hahaha grow up man you daft little fantasist

Can't remember any real links with Flowers (could be wrong) but we were definitely strongly linked with Colin Hendry. He would have been a massive signing for us.
