A bit underwhelming after being linked with Coutinho and Mbappè this summer but hey ho.

I think it's clear the takeover ship has now sailed. It's about getting answers from both parties now to find out why it wasn't approved and then to move forwards, whether that means still supporting NUFC or washing your hands of the whole club and maybe even top level football in general, which I've heard a few people mention that is what they will be doing.

Think they branded it as the JD tournament. I was there on the Sunday but not the Saturday. It was absolutely shite. Remember Perez playing in goal and Stephen Glass playing for us. Other than that, nothing.

You've made the mistake of taking everything you read on here as gospel. I've reported nobody

That quote should go on your headstone. "My information was wrong".

Mackemesque bitterness. It's my public duty as a tax paying British citizen.

Such a shitty thing to do. Stopping kids play football. They aren’t stopping kids playing football. They are free to play and train with their local clubs in pre season friendlies (not tournaments though if U9 or older) whilst the Academies are closed. These Academies actually stop bairns playing football with their friends. They are no longer allowed to play for their Sunday team or their school teams from Under 9 age group upwards.

What a despicable club getting people to work whilst on furlough and using tax payers money. It's highly illegal and as such I've just reported them to the HMRC through the online procedure. It guides you to the option of "tax fraud" during the reports procedure which suggests they take this kind of thing very seriously. Anyway that's my public duty done for the day.

Guy is generally a scumbag. He voted against the 2nd Tyne tunnel and also against the Silverlink roundabout and A1 duelling. Had the misfortune of meeting him once before. He's an extremely bitter bastard. Hates NUFC or anything north of the Tyne for that matter. Openly admits it as well.

Alan Campbell of Tynemouth won't help anyone. He hates NUFC!

Nah that's me done now. 100%. Prefer Rugby League to football these days as it is after getting into it 5 years ago when they brought Magic Weekend up here. Keep saying I'll try to watch more Non League stuff but to be honest if the playing behind closed doors has shown me one thing it's that I'm not massively in to football like I always assumed I was. Of course the actual football played a part but I can see now that it was probably more the atmosphere and the crowd which gave me the overall experience that I enjoyed. I literally haven't been able to sit and watch a full match from start to finish since lockdown, even with the artificial crowd noise. It just doesn't do it for me. I've had a good run of it anyway. I've seen us play Cambridge away, I've seen us play Barcelona away and about another 1,000 other games aside them. No doubt I'll still watch the odd German/Spanish/French/Italian game on my IPTV once fans are allowed back in but as far as English football is concerned, that's my finish.

The Premier League couldn't legally reject the deal and they knew this. They simply sat back, allowed certain timescales to expire, and let Mike Ashley do their dirty work for them. They knew he wouldn't let them down.

Its all on the PL - corrupt to the core- bigger clubs didn't want this to happen They are totally unaccountable can do what they want. Them taking into consideration the opinions of the bigger PL clubs and Qatar was bang out of order. No way should any of their feelings have had any effect on this takeover.

He's been shown to know very little about the whole episode tbh. No he's been shown to have a line into the buyers, who are sticking to their guns about what happened. Given Ashley is involved and the PL have taken the amount of time they have I know who I believe personally regardless of all this made up bollocks about Staveley being a chancer or whatever. We have years of evidence of what Ashley is like. If he has theyve been filling him with lies because most of what he's came out with these past few months has been well wide of the mark. You've no f***ing idea what you're talking about man. There's nothing to suggest that anything the buying party have said is bullshit. I said from the start it wouldn't go through, Caulkin said it would. He knew f*** all, same as I did. Only difference was my gut feeling was right and his was wrong. Absolutely full of shit. You said he knew "very little" and are changing tack. Jog on. He knew next to nowt. That's why he got so much wrong. If you are struggling to understand that, that's fair enough.

How can they now go in for Man Utd?

Rugby League. Been following it since they brought Magic Weekend up here in 2015 and had a season membership at Newcastle Thunder since 2017. Tbh I prefer it to football now although I'll still probably take in the odd Non League game if something takes my fancy. Cancelled my Sky Sports over a year ago so I dont watch Premier League football on TV anymore so in that respect nothing much will change. My interest in NUFC and elite level football in general was hanging by a thread anyway, just means the thread has been snapped now.

Ah well looks like us Negative Nellies were right all along and Qatar (who let's face it control World football) get their way again. It's a real shame for all those who were certain it was going to happen and had hung their hats on it so to speak. Think about it for a moment though and there's no way Newcastle United were ever going to be allowed to become the richest football club in the World. It just wasn't going to happen.

Not sure how Southampton get a C+ and we get a B when they finished 2 places and 8 points ahead of us. They lost one game 9-0 and still had a goal difference 11 better than ours as well. But Charlie say's...................................."He ended up playing a decent attacking style which Newcastle fans would, if they're sitting over their beer in the stadium, say he did a good job but not as good as Rafa - you'd say really? The position he finished in the league? There wasn't even one bit of sweat on the brow about going down, which you got with Rafa." I keep hearing more and more pundits go on about this attacking style we've been playing. Souness alluded to it last week as well. I suppose if you end up peddling a lie over and over eventually more people will start to believe it. My own eyes and the stats suggest we were arguably the least attacking side in the league. Couldn't care less what the likes of Nicholas says, he's probably not even watched us this season.

He has a Premier League win percentage of 28%. Just let that sink in for a minute. 28%. Basically he's doing marginally better than winning 1 game in every 4. The only manager with a worse win % is Bryan Robson who will never find work as a manager again. Certainly not in this country. How he gets such an easy ride, and all this praise constantly heaped on him from all over the media I just can’t fathom out.

If it's still deadlocked after 17 weeks surely it's failed now.
